The audience is a mix of classes, couples, old women, young boys, some carrying laterns, one with a cane

"An elderly man walks, stooping, in profile to the left, two large books under the left arm, an umbrella under the right, a walking-stick in his right hand. Books project from his coat-pocket. He wears high boots, a cocked hat, his queue is in a bag. Behind is the door of a shop, inscribed 'G. Riebau'. Part of the adjoining shop-window (left) is visible, inscribed '[A]uctioner. 439'. Against the panes are books, prints, and a notice: 'Old Books bought'. A placard hangs outside the window: 'Price 6 \ Imparti[al] Life of Paine.' (A pamphlet, 'Impartial Memoirs of the Life of Thomas Paine', was published in 1793.) Beneath the design:'Stop gentle Reader, and behold A Beau in Boots, who loves his Gold; A Walking bookseller, an Epicure, A Teacher, Doctor, & a Connoissieur. Alias Doctor V------ in his Wrigling attitude, hawking old Books as Moses does old Cloaths.''--British Museum online catalogue, description of later state

"Dr. Parr stands in a pulpit, preaching, immediately under the sounding-board which is against the upper edge of the design. In his left hand is a pipe from which rises a cloud of smoke inscribed 'Exit in Fumo'; in his right hand is a pipe-stopper. From his mouth descends a billowing cloud of smoke inscribed 'Ex Fumo non dare Lucem'. Below him are the heads of men asleep, or yawning, or disgusted. In the lower right corner a woman puts up an umbrella as protection from the smoke, a man angrily inspects his watch. From a gallery heads, with the lank hair of zealots, look down with angry dismay. In the corner of a pew is the City Sword and mace, indicating the presence of the Lord Mayor."--British Museum online catalogue
