"Tipu Sultan (left) gallops (right to left) past Cornwallis who is seated in an ornate chair on the back of an ill-drawn elephant. Tipu, rising in his stirrups, excretes a blast which displaces a boy-mahout on the elephant's neck and strikes Cornwallis. He says, "Now my Lord I'll Tip you the Swamps". The horse excretes a blast directed at the elephant's eye. The elephant, raising its trunk, says, "I wish I could run as fast as he how i would thump him." Cornwallis, with his sabre raised above his head, his left fist clenched, says, "These Monsoons are more Violent than ever I knew them before Boy turn back again." The boy says, "Yes my Lord I am going backwards Pr force." Behind Cornwallis's seat is a box inscribed 'Rice for Gruel during the Monsoons'. Behind Tipu (left) is a circular fort inscribed 'Seringapatam'."--British Museum catalogue
