- "Four designs on one plate, separated by intersecting lines, each having a separate title, inscription, and border. [1] MODESTY! The Princess of Wales and Bergami seated together in an opera-box; the occupants of the pit, all men, look up at the box, shouting "Via! via! hiss hiss s s s." The pair frown angrily; Bergami holds a bottle labelled 'Bergamot' and wears braided hussar uniform. The Princess wears a Turkish turban, a very décolletée dress defines bulging contours. A cross on the wall with the inscription 'Republica Genovese' shows that the scene is Genoa. Below: "Her Modest looks a Cottage might adorn, Sweet as the primrose peeps beneath the thorn" ... [2] DIGNITY! A scene in the Captain's cabin; the Princess and Bergami sit close together at a round table laid for dinner. She wears the same Turkish dress, which is now seen to have trousers. Both frown angrily at a naval officer who stands before them, hat in hand, saying: "I can recognize no power in you to enoble any one--and I shall not degrade myself & the Service by sitting at the table with such a fellow as that."

- Abstract:
- "An African chief displays to a naval officer three black women, who stand together (right), grinning and coy, and absurdly squat and obese, with huge posteriors like those of the Hottentot Venus (see British Museum satire no. 11577). The officer, Lieut. Lyon, bows in profile to the right, right hand on his breast, staring with humorous and wary appraisal at the women. The chief, who smiles blandly, seated on a low slab, wears a huge nose-ring, a plume of ostrich feathers, and a sword for which his left ear serves as hilt. Immediately behind him is a bodyguard of four warriors holding tall spears on each of which a skull is transfixed. Two grin, one looks with sour possessiveness at the women. All the Africans are very negroid, and naked except for small aprons. Behind the women are more Africans, much amused. Behind Lyon stand an astonished naval officer and two amused military officers; all are in dress uniform. Behind these are grinning sailors and on the extreme left the tips of the bayonets of the escort, with a Union flag."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "The Regent, in tight and dandified admiral's full-dress uniform, wearing a cocked hat, is carried by two bathing women (cf. British Museum Satires no. 8432) from a bathing-machine (right) to the barge 'Royal George', for transit to the royal yacht. Just behind is the machine, inscribed 'The Best Machines in Brighton'; from it two naked girls look towards the departing prince. A sailor standing in the barge, which flies the Royal Standard, seizes the Regent's ankles; one foot is gouty and swollen; he says to the man standing behind him (left): "My eyes jack this here craft will never carry him--we should bring the sheers and reeve a tackle for him in the long boat--!!" A naval officer stands beside the sailor, and shouts an order to the man behind: "shove the Barge further a stern & be d--d to you--what you about a head there." The Regent has an arm round the neck of each woman and grasps the plump breast of the nearer one who is comely. He says: "Do my dear Girls put me on board safe, I shall Tell Paget to give you some Grog--I have been almost suffocated in that infernal Bathing Machine--mind my foot." One bathing-woman says: "Faith he's no joke Judy the devil a heavier Burthen in all the country"; her comelier companion answers: "By my own soul I'd rather carry such a nice neat beautiful young Gentleman, than the best basket of mackerel that ever was at Billingsgate." The sailor on the left uses a pole to manipulate the barge, the bow of which is cut off by the left margin. He wears a tight blue jacket to the (pinched) waist, with red collar and cuffs, white trousers, and top-hat with a badge: 'Royal George'. With a grimace he says: "D--n these soldiers jackets I can't move in em--I suppose we shall all be lobsters by & bye!!" Behind (right) are the chalk cliffs of Brighton, with tiny figures waving their hats; one woman is seated on a donkey holding up a parasol."--British Museum online catalogue
