- Abstract:
- "The Pump Room at Bath is crowded with people striving to see Queen Charlotte, who sits in an arm-chair facing the low barrier surrounding the pump. She holds a goblet, and puts a hand to her waist, exclaiming "Oh! my belly! my belly! Oh the water the water!" She wears a fashionable bonnet with a fringed shawl over her long limp gown, with high-heeled shoes of antique pattern. Her snuff-box is on the ground. Two women stand by her, one with a bottle of 'Old Tom' saying "Here Madam Here's Old Tom [strong gin], they say he's a famous Docter for the Belly Ache"; the other says: "let me advice you to put Old Tom in.!" The Duke of Clarence in naval uniform leans on the back of the Queen's chair, saying, "Brandy the specific for the Belly Ache George & I always recomend Brandy." A man pumps (right); an elderly woman hands glasses to the company who, with the Queen, are all, with two exceptions, behind a red rope attached to the barrier. Those behind stand on tables and chairs to see the Queen. A doctor looks towards her, saying, "Three seconds more will produce a Motion." Others say: "Well I declare I see nothing extroardinary to look at!!"; "Well Jhan she doant look a bit better than Oul Granny"; "Who said she did? Eh Dame.""--British Museum online catalogue
