- "A countrywoman (right), wearing a cloak apron, and pattens and holding out a volume of 'Wesleys Hymns', addresses a jockey standing before the door of 'The Ram Inn' (left): "Pray Young Man--- are there any Meetings in this Town?" He answers: "Yes Ma'am two a Year Spring and October." The dog at his feet wears a collar "Snap". Three persons standing on the doorstep watch with amused interest: a typical betting man in top-boots arm-in-arm with a young woman, and a stout rubicund man. Behind is the race-course; three horses (right) are almost neck and neck. Spectators on horse-back watch from 'Devils Ditch', and on the horizon (right) is the winning-post with a flag."--British Museum online catalogue.

He carries her umbrella, cloak, pattens, and a bundle in a check handkerchief. She holds a fan. An elderly man (right) walking in the opposite direction looks angrily at the couple; he swaggers in front of his pretty young wife, who appears pregnant and walks carrying a little girl and an umbrella.

- "Two designs on one plate.

A fiddler stands up to snuff a single wall-candle. Below, three members of the orchestra play, grotesquely weeping; behind them are the pittites, also burlesqued, except for a good-looking young couple. A woman tries to revive a fat and fainting man with a smelling-bottle. Above their heads is a gallery, with two footmen in livery, two ladies, and an elderly parson. All shed tears, or otherwise express their grief."--British Museum online catalogue.

- "The comet has the profile head of Napoleon wearing a plumed bicorne; it rushes up from the left towards the sun, the profile head of George III, much irradiated. John Bull, a carbuncled 'cit', stoops low to look through a telescope on a tripod pointing towards the comet. Napoleon looks up at the King, who gazes fixedly above his head. He has ascended from a small piece of land rising from the narrow Channel separating it from John's wider fragment. Up this a frog clambers. On the open sea ships are strung out along the horizon. John says: "Aye - Aye - Master Comet - you may attempt your Periheliums - or your Devil heliums for what I care but take the word of an Old Man you'll never reach the Sun depend upon it"."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

- "Melville, in Highland dress (left), stoops, holding open a sack from which issues an endless procession of pigmy Scots, receding in perspective to disappear under a high Gothic doorway, inscribed 'Saint Stephens'. The little Scots march out of the bag like an army of occupation, with an eager, hungry air. Some wear plain, others feathered, bonnets; one has bagpipes under his arm, another a broad-sword. John Bull (right), a yokel in shirt and breeches, holding a cudgel, looks down at them, saying, "Dang it, what a swarm of them there be - enough to cause a famine in any christian country." Melville says: "There ye are my bonny Lads - mak the best o' your way the door is open - and leave a Scotsman alaine to stick in a place gin he once gains an entrance!" Saint Stephens, the House of Commons, is between a high crenellated wall (right) and the façade of a neo-Gothic building with crenellated roof, oriel windows above an arcade, and turrets."--British Museum online catalogue, description of alternate state.

Both wear hats turned up with cockle shells, and necklaces hung with shells, long belted gowns with rosaries. Each holds a staff surmounted by a cross. The verses, by 'Peter Pindar' (Wolcot) (abridged), relate the pilgrimage of 'a brace of Sinners' to the shrine at 'Loretta', fifty miles, with peas in their shoes, by order of their priest. The returning pilgrim explains his rapid progress:'"To walk a little more at ease,"I took the liberty to boil my peas'."--British Museum online catalogue.

A butcher cheers on his dog who is worrying the pseudo-Devil, while the conjurer (left), wearing robes and a fur cap, stands behind, in angry alarm.
