"The Pump Room at Bath is crowded with people striving to see Queen Charlotte, who sits in an arm-chair facing the low barrier surrounding the pump. She holds a goblet, and puts a hand to her waist, exclaiming "Oh! my belly! my belly! Oh the water the water!" She wears a fashionable bonnet with a fringed shawl over her long limp gown, with high-heeled shoes of antique pattern. Her snuff-box is on the ground. Two women stand by her, one with a bottle of 'Old Tom' saying "Here Madam Here's Old Tom [strong gin], they say he's a famous Docter for the Belly Ache"; the other says: "let me advice you to put Old Tom in.!" The Duke of Clarence in naval uniform leans on the back of the Queen's chair, saying, "Brandy the specific for the Belly Ache George & I always recomend Brandy." A man pumps (right); an elderly woman hands glasses to the company who, with the Queen, are all, with two exceptions, behind a red rope attached to the barrier. Those behind stand on tables and chairs to see the Queen. A doctor looks towards her, saying, "Three seconds more will produce a Motion." Others say: "Well I declare I see nothing extroardinary to look at!!"; "Well Jhan she doant look a bit better than Oul Granny"; "Who said she did? Eh Dame.""--British Museum online catalogue

"An elderly woman, lean, old-fashioned, and spinsterish, sits on a settee, shrieking and contorted with pain. A rope is wound tightly round her waist, the ends held by vicious little demons (left and right), who tug with all their might. Four others attack her with spear, trident, needle, and knife. On the wall (right) is a picture of a fat, disreputable-looking woman drinking, bottle in hand, by a bedroom fire."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"In a plainly furnished room a whole family suffers. An elderly 'cit' and a skinny old woman register acute discomfort. Between their chairs is a round table on which is a dish of cherries and currants. A stout maidservant (left) drinks from a bottle she has taken from a store-cupboard. A little boy, a cat, and a dog are afflicted. A door opens into a bedroom (right) where a little girl relieves herself; another tries to kick her from her seat. On the wall are three shelves of books, among them 'Family Bible' and 'Family Phisician'. A magpie is in a wicker cage."--British Museum online catalogue
