"The Regent at the head of a table (left) on which are decanters and dessert, holds a consultation with five advisers. He sits on a dais, with his right leg thrown over an arm of his chair; the right arm over the back, spilling a glass of wine. He says jocosely: "Well my boys, I think now we shall succeed D--d fine evidence from the states of Barbary (if that cursed Hedgehog dont get hold of it; the very man that says he acted as Accoucheur I have got over every thing as clear as the Sun at noon day, I knew what fellows those Turks were, only once get her over there & the thing was accomplished,--now for a divorce as soon as possible, I have a tit bit in my eye, & if I dont yet get a son, say that I am not a chip of the old Block!!" At his right sits Castlereagh, with the Prince's feathers and motto on the back of his chair. He turns his head in profile, saying, "I'm an unmatched negociator [see British Museum Satires No. 12501] and I'll enter into a treaty with the House of commons to secure your suit." In his pocket is a paper: 'Negociat . . with the'. Lord Eldon faces Castlereagh; he wears his Chancellor's wig and gown; the Purse of the Great Seal hangs on the wall behind him. He says: "I'll stick to your highness through thick and thin or never call me Old Bags again as long as I live!!" At the foot of the table sits Ellenborough, in wig and gown, towards whom the other two members of the Cabinet turn in alarm. Liverpool (a poor portrait) sitting opposite Vansittart, says: "I have my doubts and qualms of conscience your highness what say you, Van?" Vansittart, in his Chancellor of the Exchequer's gown: "Oh my Lord I have some strange touches of feeling on the subject!" He sits on a sack inscribed 'Budget'; from a rent in it projects a paper: 'to . . . 6.000000'. Ellenborough shakes his fist at Vansittart, rising from his chair which overturns: "Dont put me in a passion with your qualms and your touches, they are all "false, false as Hell" I'll blow you all to the D--l if you dont stick to your Master manfully!!" On the floor beside him lie three large volumes, 'Law of Divorce [Vol. I]. Vol III, Vol II.' Behind the Regent hangs a portrait with the feet only showing: '[Hen]ry VIII'.

"Two designs. [1] Scene outside the Queen's house (left) in Portman Street. Four men in court-dress hurry across the street from the door assailed by the mob. In front is Wilberforce (right) holding a 'Petition to the Queen'; he exclaims "Oh! Dear! Saints never were so served before." From the other three (Stuart-Wortley, Bankes, and Sir T. Acland) ascend the words "These are aw-full times as the Scot's man said" [ ? the 'Scotsman', a conspicuously Queenite paper]. In the foreground (left) a man, saying "There he goes Dr Cantwell," and a boy spit copiously at them. The crowd: "Hiss! hiss"; "No Cantwell"; "out out"; "Spit on 'em." Brougham stands in the doorway; Denman behind him; he says "What quantities of rabbid saline!!" The Queen stands on a balcony, the base of which is 'a Good Foundation--(ie) Innocence--'. She says "No Tricks, you faithful representitaves [sic] of the people." [2] A corner of the House of Commons with the Speaker (Manners-Sutton) in the Chair (right), calling "Order! Order!" Beside the table and on the Speaker's right a member stands shouting "Privilege! Privilege." Behind is a group of members, freely sketched.
