Abstract:
"Leach (right), the Vice-Chancellor, dressed as a woman, with a trimmed bonnet over his wig, sits on a corded chest inscribed Commissio[n] ; against this leans a book: Justifia et honor. He grasps a moneybag inscribed 10,000, and holds the ear of a fox which crouches against his knee. He faces John Bull who is stripped to the waist, with a gigantic leech on his back. John, a countryman in patched breeches, registers angry terror and pain; he looks over his shoulder, exclaiming: "D--me what a monstrous Leech! it not only sucks blood but honor also!" Leach says: "I am not plain, Leech, Sir, but by vulgar denomination--I am called Miss Leech if you please--." Beside J. B., and pointing menacingly towards him, are the muzzle of a cannon, a sheaf of bayonets in a chest inscribed 'G R' and 'Steel Lozenges' [see British Museum Satires No. 13513]. Against this lie shackles inscribed 'Bandages', and cannon-balls inscribed 'Bolus' and 'Iron Pills'. On a hill behind a large cap of 'Liberty' dangles from a gibbet against which leans a ladder. Leach's fox turns its head towards John, saying: "In Law. what plea so tained [sic] and corrupt, But, being season'd with a gracious voice, Observes the evil? There is no Vice so simple, but assumes Some mark of virtue on his outward parts Shak Mer of Ven--Act 3 Scene 2." Behind Leach, and on the extreme right, is a second chest inscribed 'French and Italian Monkey[s]'. A monkey wearing a fool's cap crouches on it, grinning at his reflection in a hand-mirror."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A leech with the head and barrister's wig of Leach is coiled round an upright cylindrical document to which is tied with red tape a second bill; these are respectively 'Bill of Pains . . .' [see British Museum Satires No. 13825] and 'Divorce'. Propped against the former are two green bags (see British Museum Satires No. 13735), both closed with a large red seal on which is a 'G.R.' monogram. These are inscribed 'Fill'd with Filth and Lies!!!' and 'Lies . . . [L]ies'. With them are other large documents: 'List of Witness[es] against Q . . . N'; 'Expen[ces] & Bribes at Milan'; 'Protoc[ol]' (cf. British Museum Satires No. 13764). The small shambling Wilberforce is being pushed towards the leech by Castlereagh (left), who is a pendant to the more stalwart and bulky Duke of York (right). The Duke wears uniform, holds his unsheathed sword, and has a pyramid of cannon-balls crooked in his left arm. A paper, 'Bp Osnabu[rgh]', is thrust through his sash. He says fiercely: "Rascals! Villains!! Traitors!!! I have set the Claret running in One Place, and if any of you attempt, to deprive me of My succession, I will make your Bodies, a thoroughfare for York dumplings!! alias Artillery Bolouses." Castlereagh, with a scourge hanging from his pocket, says to Wilberforce: "O dear! O dear! That Bishop quite alarms me, now my dear Christian Friend, pray do persuade that great Horse Leech to muster up all his Italian Witnesses [see British Museum Satires No. 13762, &c.] immediately or that Military Bishop [cf. British Museum Satires No. 11227] will send us to Kingdom come along with out Master." Wilberforce holds a book: 'New Litany &c'; a Pet[ition] To Q--N' is under his arm; a paper, 'Slave Tra[de]' (cf. British Museum Satires No. 8793) hangs from his pocket. He says: "Pray Sr--Horse Leech, endeavour to stop the Q--'s mouth by bringing the whole host of Witnesses, before the L--ds, so as to Crush Her at once, otherwise that Terrable Bishop, will send us into Abrahams bosom, sooner, than We wish.""--British Museum online catalogue
