- Abstract
-
William IV, holding his royal robes under his arm and carrying his crown and mace in a bag by his side, talks with an unamused coach driver who says "My fare's a crown there's my number if you don't like it." Behind them waits a coach flying a French flag and labeled "The R-l State" below. To the upper left of the coach, a precher preaches from a barrel labeled "The Church of England." In the background, a dilapidated building covered with signs such as "To Let" and "To Be Sold, Bankrupt Effects" is seen. A sign projecting from the right side of the building depicts people falling off the Earth with the words "The World Upside Down" below; sailing in the ocean beyond the sign are a few ships labeled "The British Navy." On the street in front of the coach is a ragtag group of soldiers labeled "The British Army," with some scattered papers on the street in the foreground labeled "Public Credit."
