Abstract: In an outdoor setting, North and Fox sit at a table placed under a vine trellis and in front of a small temple or mausoleum, signed, "Treasury" with the bust of the Duke of Portland above it. North is about to place in Fox's hand one of the bags of money lying on the table, saying, "Now Reynard the Whole Vineyard is our own. Therefore let us be busy," to which Fox answers, "That is my sole aim, but what will the People say?"
