"Codrington, wearing the star of the Bath, sits on a gun-carriage on the deck of his ship, looking sternly up at an old scarred and pigtailed sailor who addresses him with an expression of consternation: Please your Honor's Glory there's something wrong in the wind, for they've clapt a Marine at the Helme of Old England, and He and the other lob lollies have made Sombody (God bless Him) to call our Glorious Victory an UNTOWARD EVENT And when they where told to belay their jawing tackel they shifted the wind and began to blow another way. Codrington answers Aye Aye Jack they or we must be fools. In his right hand is his sword, the point resting on the deck, the blade inscribed with Nelson's Trafalgar signal: England expects every Man to do his duty. He holds a document: Treaty of London. His back is to the sea where a rocky promontory (right) forms Wellington's profile, looking towards Codrington, a row of tiny gun-emplacements forming a grim smile (cf. BM Satires No. 15691); on the rock is a flag at half-mast, topped by a spurred Wellington boot, upside down."--British Museum online catalogue

A judge sits in a chair (left) looking at sailor who stands hat in hand before him. He says, "Are you certain, in respect to your being sober at the time the circumstance happened." The sailor with caricatured features and warts on his face, replies: "Sober. Come I like that, may I never again weigh anchor if I would not call him a lubber be he who he would, that would say I was drunk, please your grave and reverend worship. I had only shipp'd in eight grogs and a gill not enough to make a lawyer merry, in short your honor, I'll be d-nd if I was not as sober as a judge."
