The butler stands on a ladder (left) holding out the spigot, and saying to Banks who stands below (right): "here's a pretty "Tale of a tub, all the Wine's gone!!" Sir Joseph stands in back view, capering delightedly; he holds up both arms, a stick in the left hand, and says with head thrown back: "It is a most Glorious discovery cut it down & send it to the Museum had the Wine been Bottled, it wod not have been half so Interesting." Against the wall of the cellar are wine-bins, stacked with bottles, four inscribed respectively 'Curious Tinta'; 'Cypress'; 'Very Curious'; 'Wine drank by the Grt Mogul'. Flasks on the top of the bins are 'Nile Water' and 'Water from Tombuctoo'.
