Abstract:: "From slits in a huge green bag, labelled 'Evidence against the Q...n', peer the heads of five witnesses against the Queen. Round it stand puzzled and apprehensive Ministers discussing their plans. Castlereagh, on the extreme left, faces Sidmouth who stands with flexed knees holding a constable's staff, one hand on the bag. He says: "Well Gentlemen! we are pretty well in for it now--we must lie through thick and thin to do any good, and get as many as we can to do the same, or it is all up with us; what say you Doctor have you any specific for the occasion." Sidmouth: "Friend Derry I could as soon produce the Philosophers stone or Elixir of Life but if your brazen face can't bring us through it is a forlorn hope, however here is some chance in the Bag!" The head of a man crouching in the Bag looks up to say: "Yes I have some choice Tales to communicate what with Bargemen--Chambermaids--W....s and Rogues, whom I have had the honor to associate with. I shall be able to COOK up a high seasoned dish that his M.....y will relish." On the right of the Bag stands Canning, scratching his head with a puzzled expression; he says: "Curse that City Hop Merchant [Wood] he has thrown bitter into this Brewing with a vengeance! I'll try what a dash of my wit will do, or we shall be obliged to swallow it ourselves!" A pretty female head looks up at him from the Bag, to say: "I say Mr. Flashman! don't stand scratching your head in that manner but hear what I have to tell you when a woman is determined on revenge she will stick at nothing to accomplish it--turn me away indeed for a little amusement with Peter, when my husband was out I hate such scrupulous Modesty. I'll swear any thing you wish." Three faces appear at smaller slits, saying respectively: "I'll swear!"; "So will I!"; "So will I to any lie." Eldon (right) in Chancellor's wig and gown, walks off to the right, holding a rolled document: 'Rex [vers]us Regina'. He says with a meditative frown: "Well Gentlemen I shall go home and consult about it. I dont like to decide too hastily Look before you leap ought to be the Motto of my Seal" [cf. British Museum Satires No. 15139, &c.]. Behind Castlereagh (left) is a table with writing materials; at his feet are bundles of papers labelled 'Foreign Newspapers' and 'Foreign Correspondence private'.."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:: "A grotesque procession of brass-founders (braziers), carrying banners and emblems of brass on poles, burlesquing a Roman triumph. They march (right to left) past a sign-post pointing (left) 'To B--burgh House' and (right) 'To Turnham Green'. All wear loose jack-boots, spurred, and on each man's head is a brass utensil (or helmet), as made by the trade, and each carries a dish-cover (or shield) inscribed 'C R'. Many wear makeshift breastplates. They wear ragged breeches, some partly covered by strips of metal on the thigh, in imitation of armour. The two goose-stepping leaders blow coach-horns to which banners are attached, inscribed 'Blow Braziers Blow thy Sounding Horns'; their head-dress is a candlestick containing a tall lighted candle. They are followed by two trumpeters, with teakettles on their heads. Next comes a tall drummer, his drum inscribed 'Hum Drum', using ladles for drumsticks and with a coal-scuttle-helmet. Prominent among their trophies are pikes, to which banners are attached, each decorated by a large white favour. The first banner is inscribed 'Hail Star of Como [see British Museum Satires No. 13857] Brass is a Joke to thee.' Beside this, supported on a pole, is a model of a man (Bergami) on a galloping horse inscribed 'Courier'. A pair of breeches hangs from a pike. Various objects are surmounted by a piece of drapery inscribed 'Presents for Carey', and by a banner inscribed 'Men of Metal'; they include a bull, a goat, a stag's head, and a model of a Turk dancing inscribed 'Dimma Dimma'. Behind these is an owl and, beside a banner inscribed 'Pam [knave of clubs] & Qu--n for ever', is a model of Bergami carrying the Queen on his back. A figure of Harlequin is inscribed 'B B' [Bartolomeo Bergami]. Drapery is inscribed 'Presents for Bat' [Bartolommeo]; beside this is a bust of Alderman Wood. 'Furniture for the Barona' is on a banner flying over a woman (three-quarter length) wearing a triple fool's cap and emerging from a stand: 'Automaton Pitch'. A figure of 'Columbine' capers awkwardly. The interstices among these objects are filled with household utensils, &c., held high, tongs, poker, shovel, &c. Below the design: '"Why look'ye Mrs Brasier!" I dont know in what quantities you sell brass "at" Como"--But when you come "from" abroad, & ask a thinking people "to believe Black is White--D . . . me but your'e a Wholesale Dealer!!!--John Bull.""--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:: "A parody of British Museum Satires No. 9752, Gillray's 'Dido in Despair!' The Queen takes the place of Lady Hamilton, in a similar pose but tearing her long black hair with more of rage and less of grief. She wears a bracelet on each arm, one inscribed 'BB' (for Bergami), the other 'MW' (for Wood). On the floor are gifts to the Queen. Her bare right foot rests on a large cake inscribed 'MW' on which are various emblems: a large crown, which she kicks over, busts of Wood, Bergami, Lieut. Hownam, and an unidentified person; also a goat, an ass, and a cat. This stands on a paper: 'Mr Trifle's Love to the Q[ueen]'. A huge round of beef is ticketed 'With Mr Suets Love to the Q--n'; with this is a roll of 'Cat's Meat'. A model of a pair of stays enclosed in a glass case stands on two papers: 'Glass-blower's Delight' and 'O stay my love my Cary dear'. A pair of breeches of metal is 'For Bat [Bergami] or Cat ad libitum from the Brazier[s]'. Caricatures lie near a pair of slippers inscribed 'BB'; the uppermost is of Bergami drinking at a table between Wood and the Queen. A book is 'Catalogue of Fancy Men'. The glass on the dressing-table is topped by a crescent; on it hang miniatures of Bergami and Wood (cf. No. 13858). The table is covered with decanters, one labelled 'Brandy' [see British Museum Satires No. 14175], glass, pill-box, and boxes of 'Rouge', 'Brick dust', and 'Court Plaister'. The curtains of the bed are fringed with gold and hang from a pelmet.
