"Sheridan stands in profile to the left, with fallen jaw and disconcerted expression, before a hoarding across the front of Carlton House, in which is a lion's-head knocker which looks fiercely at him. Over the hoarding appear the huge hands, head, and shoulders of Big Sam, the (former) porter at Carlton House (see British Museum Satires No. 7905), wearing a round hat with a curled brim and the motto 'Ich dien'. He looks down, saying, "no Admittance Sir We are all loyal". On the hoarding (right) are two play-bills: 'Drury Lane The Second Part of King Henry the IV .... The Manager in Distress' (by George Colman, 1780, here an allusion to Sheridan's position); 'Covent Garden Venice preser[ved] or a Plot discove[red]' (Otway, 1682)."--British Museum online catalogue

Eight figures in two rows are depicted reading Thomas Paine's pamphlet The Rights of Man, each gesturing dramatically and each with a lengthy quote above his head either praising or denouncing the ideas expressed. On the top row are Edmund Burke (reading the passages referring to himself), Charles Fox, George III, and Charles Jenkinson. In the second row, Queen Charlotte, Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin, William Pitt, and Richard Sheridan seem to address each other in a similarly lively debate of contrasting responses to Paine's arguments

"Lady Hertford, seated regally on a small sofa, cuts locks from the head of the Regent who reclines against her knees, asleep. The locks already cut are on the ground inscribed respectively 'Sheridan', 'Norfolk', 'Moira', 'Holland', 'Erskine'. She is about to shear off one inscribed 'Grenville'; the last, 'Grey', is still on his head. The Prince, who is conventionally handsome, and wears uniform, holds a paper signed '[Gren]ville / Grey'; his garter, inscribed 'Honi so . . .', is loose, and his left hand hides the star on his breast. Lord Yarmouth (right) stands holding a guttering candle; he points to the uncut lock, saying, "Don't forget that lock laying [on] the shoulder its Grey dy'ye see!" In his pocket is a pamphlet: 'Art of Milling' [see British Museum Satires No. 11842]. To leave no doubt as to his identity, a basket of fish is beside him inscribed '[Y]armouth Herrings'. Lady Hertford is heavily handsome; a small crown, which might pass as a tiara decorates her head; one foot rests regally on a footstool. A pillar and drapery behind her suggest regal state. On the sofa beside her is a rolled document headed 'Road to Hertford from Pall Mall'. On the ground (left) are empty wine-bottles; on a book by the Prince's feet, 'Economy of Human Life', lies a broken bottle from which wine pours. Behind (left) stands Perceval in his Chancellor of the Exchequer's gown, watching from behind a curtain which he holds aside; Castlereagh stands behind him, saying, "By Jasus, but she's as pretty a Barber as ever I clap't my eyes upon." Perceval answers: "Hush! Hush! you'l wake him before they are all cut."."--British Museum online catalogue

"Fox and Sheridan officiate at the wedding of Lady Lucy Stanhope and an apothecary who is made up of medical implements. The bride is a pretty girl wearing a feathered hat from which a transparent veil falls over her face. Stanhope (left), without breeches, and wearing a bonnet-rouge, stooping in profile to the right, pushes her towards the bridegroom who is placing a ring on her finger; from his coat-pocket protrudes a three-masted vessel flying a tricolour flag (see BMSat 8640). The bridegroom, Taylor, is also a sansculotte; his posteriors are formed of a syringe, his body is a mortar, from which issues a pestle supporting a bonnet-rouge. His arm is made of two medicine-phials. Fox stands full-face behind the altar balustrade holding open Paine's 'Rights of Man' (see BMSat 7867, &c). He wears surplice and bands. Sheridan stands (right) in profile to the left, reading from 'Thelwal's Lectures' (cf. BMSat 8685), he wears a lay coat with bands; both wear bonnets-rouges. On the wall which forms a background, and immediately above Fox, is a large picture, 'Shrine of Equality': three men wearing bonnets-rouges officiate at a guillotine; the blade is about to fall on a man wearing a ducal coronet; other peers stand (right) waiting their turn. On the ground by the guillotine lie coronets which have just been chopped off."--British Museum online catalogue
