"A cobbler, broadly grinning, holds up a long thread and recounts a long tongue-twister beginning, 'When a twister a twisting, will twist him a twist', to the diversion of two sailors, who remark, 'Scuttle my hammock, Jib, if this here fellow does not beat our parson.', 'I think so messmate and the surgeon into the bargain.'; a sign above the cobbler's shop reads, 'Men and womens soles translated, their understand-ings mended - uprights rectified - and quarters restiched. by J Cook - Knt. of St. Crispin, and secular twister to the parish of Sheeperton'; a gloomy parson looks out from a cottage window opposite, underneath a sign reading, 'Abraham Amen parish clerk and sexton', the notice in the house next door reads, 'Iohn Heavan. Apothecary and undertaker'."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A grocer's snug parlour, with 'Mr. Fig', an ugly 'cit', holding on his knee an ugly child who is playing havoc with the tea-things. With a mug inscribed 'EF' the infant has smashed the tea-pot, while an overturned milk-jug makes a pool on the floor at which a cat laps. The man's back is to the fireplace (left), where a kettle is boiling over, and a red-hot poker is burning the floor. He says, with a fatuous smile: "Pretty Dear Heart! what a Gulley [an unrecorded word, evidently from Gully the pugilist]. it has given the Tea Pot, she delights in a little mischief, I should not be surprised Mrs Fig if she was to make as much Noise in the World as her Namesake, and as the Poet says "like another Ellen fire another Troy". Mrs. Fig (right), with arms angrily extended, exclaims: "Troy indeed Mr Fig, I think your more likely to Fire the House, look where the red hot poker lays and see how the tea Kettle is boiling over!!" On the wall is a framed print of 'The Worlds End', a flaming globe (the sign of more than one public house in the outskirts of London). On the mantelpiece are a large china mandarin (sign of the grocer's connexion with the tea-trade) and a medicine-bottle labelled 'Composing Draught for Miss Fig'. In a letter-rack are letters 'To Mr Fig Grocer'."--British Museum online catalogue

"The 'Genius of Caricature' presides at a dinner-table at which sit 'Lilliputians', cf. British Museum Satires No. 9635, &c, all with large grotesque heads, all laughing, and raising brimming glasses to drink the toast. The chairman wears a Harlequin suit, and though differing from the 'Genius' of British Museum Satires No. 10917 both have similar gap-toothed mouths and may be intended for Tegg. He gives Success to Volume the Third. A toast-master standing beside him holds up a fringed placard or banner inscribed: Mr Tegg, M' Tegg,! You're at home to a peg, Volume two is now fairly completed, Then to Cheapside repair, Ye who spurn at dull care, And with, Wit, Fun, & Frolic be treated, With Woodward we'll laugh, And with Rowlandson quaff, And drown every Folly absurd, Here's a toast to the brim, My gay children of Whim, Success to their Volume the Third. The guests are two women and five men, all middle-aged or elderly, and two with drink-blotched profiles. On the table is a basket of (?) olives labelled Jokes. Behind the chairman is an alcove, inscribed Mirth Admit Me Of Thy Crew. The walls recede in almost symmetrical perspective and are decorated with solidly mounted prints (or the original drawings) from the magazine."--British Museum online catalogue

"The interior of a thieves' kitchen or cellar into which a steep flight of steps (left) descends. All the inmates have seen Matthew Wood, the Mayor, followed by constables, coming quietly down the stairs except for a sleeping woman and a watchman seated with his back to the stairs and holding up a glass of gin. He says, with a grin, to a terrified woman who falls over backwards, kicking his hand: "You had like'd to have kick'd the Blue Ruin [gin, generally bad gin, from c. 1810; Partridge, 'Slang Dict'., 1938] out of my hand, come let's have our Old toast! Industrious Thieves, and Idle Magistrates." The woman screams: "Oh the Night Mare!! we're ruind by the Lord." A man wearing top-boots crouches behind her chair, trying to hide his plunder, a watch, seals, &c., under his hat. He says: "We are dish'd Bet by G-- if I escape I'll live honestly as long as this chaps in Office --for he'l ruin the Consarn!" Two men and a woman try to escape through a door: she says: "D-- his Eyes when does he sleep!!" The watchman wears a helmet-like hood, a long coat with his rattle thrust through the belt, his staff and (smoking) lantern lie on the floor. Wood is handsome and fashionably dressed in a long frogged overcoat. He says to the constables: "Here's a pretty fellow for a Guardian of the Night--Blue Ruin shall bring him to the Black hole!"."--British Museum online catalogue

"On a skittle-ground just outside an inn (left) with the sign of the mitre, a stout parson stoops to throw a ball at a set of ninepins, smoking a long pipe. A farmer, seated close to him, with a foaming jug, says, with his pipe in his mouth, "I think a game of skittles must be healthy exercise Doctor!!" The parson: "Yes! I was advised to it by my Physician! I find great benefit! I get quite a dab at it--here goes the Head of the Church!" He has not seen a grossly fat and carbuncled bishop who has entered the enclosure, leaving a carriage and pair at the gate. The bishop says: "Proceed good Doctor with your Game--I wish you all the benefit from it which your Physician has promised, but I am afraid it will never procure you a Benefice." A man in riding-dress, an ostler, and a countryman in a smock watch from the left, the bishop's coachman and footman from the gate (right)."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
