Title from text in letterpress., Text consists of verses in praise of Canning for his loyalty to the Queen., "The following address was composed by a nobleman who resides near Guildford, Surrey--not the noble lord, who declared the bill of pains and penalties ought to have been thrown out, but had not the courage to vote against it. The noble author of the address was one who was unable to take his seat, from indisposition.", The illustration, with the etched title "A Canning address" (with the "u" of "Cunning" scored through and an "a" etched above), is an unsigned etching of George Canning speaking a eulogy of and bowing to Queen Caroline., "Price one shilling.", Not in the Catalogue of prints and drawings in the British Museum., Mounted to 58 x 39 cm., Printed on wove paper with watermark: Fellows 1817., Mounted on leaf 93 in volume 2 of the W.E.

Blanks within the printed verses have been completed in ink, spelling out all of the censored names and words; the note "Canning resigd. Dec. 1820" has been written beside the first occurrence of his name in the first column.

"The Duchess of Devonshire with two other catch-singers, Fox and North, who are dressed as fat old market-women. The Duchess (left) elegantly dressed, but with her breast uncovered and wearing her election hat with 'Fox' favours, feathers, and fox's brush, puts her left hand on Fox's shoulder, pointing to a tomb-stone beside her (left) inscribed, beneath its skull and cross-bones, 'Here lies poor C--C--L--RAY'. She sings: "Look neighbours look here lyes Poor C-------ray [Cecil Wray]". Fox, his left hand grasping a crutch-headed stick, turning to North, sings "Dead & turn'd to Clay". North (right), also with a stick, sings "What Old C------l". Through the wings peers the anxious-looking, spectacled profile of Burke (right). Three framed pictures decorate the wall behind the performers: 'The fox who had lost his Tail' (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6530), a tail-less fox looking at four others who are discussing the situation.
