- Abstract:
- "A central design, with four small vignettes: [1] '"Church & State"--' A bishop (right) and a layman take wine together at opposite ends of a dinner-table over which hangs a gas chandelier. Three bloated footmen stand stiffly; behind the host (right) is a sideboard laden with plate. A Gillrayesque picture of a papal procession extends along the wall (an allusion to Emancipation, see No. 15658). [2] 'The Shop for Bargains!--' A coal-shed, a ragged child holds out her apron for 'Half a peck of Coals, & let em be good, for Mother says, that penny coal I had yesterday was only a Slate'. The man, holding a shovel and a small measure, answers 'Slate was it?! then I'm sure she's no call to grumble you could'nt a got so much slate at the Stationers under a Shilling!' [3] 'Corporal Punishment'. A fat fellow, plodding uphill, stops to mop his head: 'They tell me I shall find a good deal of difficulty in getting my fat down!--but I 'fegs I find a good deal of difficulty in getting it Up!!' [4] 'Taken in Tow--a Scene on a Rope walk--' A beadle seizes a rope-maker who has a bundle of tow round his waist. [5] 'An Unthankful fellow--' A countryman sits in the stocks in the rain, his right wrist shackled to a post, scowling at a fat beadle who faces him under an umbrella: 'What! want to go?!!! after we have taken all this trouble with you! ungrateful man, hav'nt we warmed your back?! hav'nt we provided you with Board & Lodging?! & now! hav'nt you even washing included? what more can you want?! do you want a band of music?! or did you expect that we were to find you in Rose water & toothpicks?!!!'"--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A pugilistic encounter between two old market-women who are Eldon (left) and Wellington (right). Eldon is much the stouter and more purposeful, facing his enemy grimly and aggressively. He has a basket of oranges (emblem of the Orange Lodges) beside him, and wears a flat wide-brimmed hat. Wellington wears a soldier's coat over his skirt and apron (as beggar-women or basket-women often did, cf. (e.g.) BM Satires No. 15763). His profile is apprehensive, his hands loosely closed and on the defensive. Each has a bottle-holder; that of Eldon is John Bull, a stout yokel who puts his hand on his principal's bulging posterior, saying, 'Welldone--old Mother Baggs--you have got the best bottom after all. see what it is to have a good Constitution--give it her--she has'ent got the Mounshears to deal with now.' Wellington's supporter is a bare-legged Irish ragamuffin with a pipe thrust in his little hat. He capers excitedly, putting a hand on Wellington's back to push him forward, saying, 'Murder ye ould cat kape your fists Tight--or you'I let the Ould Orange-Woman bate ye clane.' In the background is a freely sketched crowd of spectators, women of St. Giles or Billingsgate. Two only are characterized: a fat woman with parson's wig and bands, with a basket of 'Oxford Sauce' on her head, looks over her shoulder at a handsome young virago (Peel), who is shouting at her, to say: 'Come give us none of your Jaw--Mother peel'."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A fight between Lyndhurst and Peel with Ellenborough and Wellington as bottle-holders. Lyndhurst (left), in Chancellor's wig and gown, staggers back, arms flung out, at a punch on the nose from Peel who lunges forward, ruthlessly pugnacious. Ellenborough, dressed and behaving as a dandy (in tight-waisted blue coat and white bell-shaped trousers), holding a tubular eau-de-cologne bottle, emblem of the dandy, cf. BM Satires No. 13031, registers alarm, exclaiming, 'Oh! Oh! my dear Lud, take care--he's a terrible hitter--or he'll have your Ludship's dear head in Chancery.' Wellington (right), in uniform with sword, gauntlets, and heavily spurred cavalry boots, says: 'That's it Bob; serve him out--He won't ride rusty after this I know.'"--British Museum online catalogue
