Abstract:
"John Bull sits full face holding a bowl of soup, between Addington, the cook, and the protesting Windham on the extreme right. On the left Pitt sits in profile to the left before an enormous kitchen fire, over which hangs a giant cauldron; he blows the fire with bellows, saying, 'I dont know how it is - but I manage this Soup business rather awkwardly - I suppose it is from being so much used to the stewing and Broiling line.' Addington, who wears the Speaker's wig with apron and over-sleeves, and holds a long ladle, says: 'Though I say it that made it - you never tasted better soup in your life'. Windham (right) stands in profile to the left his knees flexed, saying, 'O' Mr Bull - Mr Bull - if you have any regard for your Constitution - dont touch it - the Cayen of Jacobinism flavours every spoonful - and the Fire that boil it I consider as a Funeral Pile for all your well wishes - do Johnny take some of my Cheese-parings - they are very wholesome, and easy of Digestion.' John says, his eyes turned towards Addington, his spoon raised to his mouth: 'I don't mind what he says - my Hearty I say it's very good Soup - and a d------d deal better [word erased] than your Gin. I should like a little more bread for all that, and it would be quite as well - if it did not taste so strong of the Ceylon pepper.'"--British Museum online catalogue
