A burlesque coat of arms symbolizing the supposed character of the Unitarians represented by Priestley. After the title is engraved: 'Address'd to those Peaceable Subjects of this Kingdom who prefer the Present happy Constitution to that Anarchy &amp; Bloodshed so Zealously sought for by these restless advocates for Priestly &amp; Paine's Sophistical Tenets.' A printed explanation is attached to the print. The shield rests on a vulture which grasps in its beak and claws the motto: 'Under these Garbs do we act.' On a shaded (sable) ground a harpy suckles young harpies and holds up the cap of Liberty with a pendent banner on which is a crown surrounded by drops of blood. On a border round the shield are ten groups of ten intertwined serpents. The crest is the Devil and a number of fiends attacking a glory of rays surrounding a triangle, symbolizing the Trinity. The supporters are (dexter) Religion, a veiled woman holding a book and cross, her foot on a skull, and (sinister) Hypocrisy, a woman with the feet of a bird of prey, reading a book, and holding (concealed) a dagger with a notched blade; a trumpet is slung to her waist; a small wallet containing 'a bandelure' (see BMSat 7829) hangs from her neck in place of a cross. She tramples on a crown. She wears a ragged drapery, intended to suggest humility, over a rich garment. 14 July 1792."--British Museum online catalogue</dc:description><dc:description>Title etched below image.</dc:description><dc:description>Five lines of prose below title: Addressd to those peacable subjects of this Kingdom who prefer the present happy constitution to that anarchy &amp; bloodshed so zealously sought for by these restless advocates for Priestly &amp; Paine's sophistical tenets.</dc:description></oai_dc:dc>
