"Scene at a conjurer's. A man covered with a shaggy skin, with bull's horns, stands in a circle, impersonating the Devil. A butcher cheers on his dog who is worrying the pseudo-Devil, while the conjurer (left), wearing robes and a fur cap, stands behind, in angry alarm. A stuffed crocodile, celestial globe, &c, decorate the room. An inscription relates at length that the butcher has gone to consult the conjurer about some lost sheep, when his dog springs at the 'Devil', thinking it is a bull; he detects the cheat and refuses to call off his dog. The prose narrative ends: 'so Dog against Devil, for what sum you please!'."--British Museum online catalogue.

"A sequence of four designs divided by intersecting lines. 'Spring'. An ugly tailor kneels with clasped hands at the feet of a plain woman, who holds up a fan encouragingly. A card of patterns hangs from his pocket. He says: "Oh you bewitching Angel behold at your feet a Swain as tender as a Veal Cutlet, You are the very Broad Cloth of perfection--have pity on me Adorable Mrs Griskin." She answers: "You enchanting Devil I do not know what to say to you. however Mr Thimble--that Mole between your eye-brows-- put me so much in mind of my poor departed Husband, that I think I cant refuse you." 'Summer'. The pair walk arm-in-arm in a landscape. He has become plump and wears trousers in place of the breeches worn in the other three designs. She flourishes a parasol. A dog follows. He says: "O thou wert born to please me My Life my only Dear." She answers: "Ay now you look a little stylish You are a--Charming Man who would not be married." 'Autumn'. They face each other defiantly, she holds a letter beginning 'Dear Mr Thimble,' and shrieks: "Here you feller here's a pretty commence. An interspected letter from one of your Naughty Women I knew you was going to Gallivant." He answers: "Well Ma'am, since you come for to go to that, who was it Galivanted with Mr Dip the Dyer to White conduit House last Sunday answer me that however I'll have a separation." 'Winter'. The pair are seated each side of a writing-table at which a lawyer sits reading a paper: 'Articles of Seperation between Jeremiah and Tabitha Thimble'. Her hands are in a muff; she says with a painful smile: "I never felt myself so Comfortable in all my Life." He has grown thin and sits with clasped hands, saying, "O Blessed day for Jerry Thimble I hope to pass the next Year in Peace and quietness"."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

"Scene in a dance-room, which is roughly panelled, has a low platform across one end, and a small gallery (right) with a fiddler and a man blowing a French horn; it is lit by a hanging chandelier. In the centre two men face each other in boxing attitudes; one is stripped to the waist, the other to the shirt. Women stand behind them, alarmed or interested. A woman has fainted and is supported by a man who administers smelling-salts. On the right a wild scuffle is going on: two termagants seize each other by the hair, a third, on the ground, pulls down one of the combatants; they resemble prostitutes of St. Giles. Others are comelier and better dressed.

"John Bull, a hideously carbuncled 'cit', looks down grinning at a semicircle of men on a much smaller scale who surround his half-length figure. They are (left to right) Napoleon, wearing a huge bicorne, who looks up to say 'Ships. Colonies and Commerce'.
