"Fashionable town loungers (cf. British Museum Satires No. 8377, &c), badly damaged in dress and limb, walk on a broad pavement. In the foreground are five figures, three in back view; all have one arm in a sling, two have a leg supported at the knee, two have bandaged eyes. Their coats and hats are riddled with holes and rents. The man on the extreme right is Skeffington, copied in reverse from British Museum Satires No. 9440, but wearing a large cocked hat. He looks round at Penn, copied in reverse from British Museum Satires No. 9441. From Penn's pocket issues a paper: '[word illegible] for Boxing'. Under the foot of the man on the extreme left, who is gazing at a lady through an eye-glass, is a paper: 'Leakes Pills' (absent in British Museum Satires No. 9447 a). Next him is Lord Kirkcudbright. Behind are other members of the 'Battalion', freely sketched and similarly damaged."--British Museum online catalogue

"Mrs. Clarke stands just within the House of Commons triumphing over her opponents and victims. She strikes a member (Croker) with a rapier, while holding up in her left hand a letter headed My dear Mrs Clark. She tramples on a military officer who lies prone; a paper under his hand is inscribed Genl [Clav]ering. Her antagonists have dropped their swords, which lie broken on the floor. Her large muff lies beside her with a bundle of Love Letters. Croker tries to escape, exclaiming, By Jasus she'll give us 100 Cuts in 60 thrusts. Perceval rushes off, with a mutilated hand, saying, I am Struck dumb, and lost my thumb! I Percieve all. Another (the Attorney-General) exclaims: Oh! dear! Oh dear! she has cut off my Ear Ex officio. A little man whose nose has been cut off, exclaims: What dreadfull blows--Witness my Nose, my Honeys. In his pocket is a paper: Memorandum for Mr Hague [see British Museum Satires No. 11211]. A tall man (Yorke, see British Museum Satires No. 11535) shouts, raising his arms: Take her into custody--She will be to much for us--send her to York Jail. Shadowy figures watch the encounter. A corner of the gallery is seen, crowded with eager spectators. Two men watch from the lobby (right)."--British Museum online catalogue

"Pitt puts the Coalition to flight. He stands on the left, having just discharged an arrow from his bow, which pierces Fox (right) in the Achilles tendon. He says: "Thus do I strive with heart and hand To drive Sedition from the Land." Fox, prostrate and massive, supports himself on his hands to look at Pitt, saying: "There is nought but a place or a pension that will ease The Strain that I've got in my tendon Achilles." Burke, behind Fox, rushes away from Pitt, his arms outstretched in terror, saying: "Before thy Arrows Pitt, I fly O D--n that word prolexity." North, between Burke and Pitt, also in flight but holding a sword and shield, says: "This curs'd eternal Coalition Has brought us to a rare Condition." Pitt has a quiver with arrows slung across his shoulder; he, North, and Burke wear contemporary dress; Fox wears a tunic, greaves, and sandals."--British Museum online catalogue
