"An elderly woman, lean, old-fashioned, and spinsterish, sits on a settee, shrieking and contorted with pain. A rope is wound tightly round her waist, the ends held by vicious little demons (left and right), who tug with all their might. Four others attack her with spear, trident, needle, and knife. On the wall (right) is a picture of a fat, disreputable-looking woman drinking, bottle in hand, by a bedroom fire."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
