Abstract:
"The patient lies in a large bed (right), sourly watching four ugly doctors (left) who sit in consultation, their knees close together. Two put old-fashioned gold-headed canes to their mouths. They say respectively: "We must throw in the Bark" [quinine]; "It is all brought on by Drinking"; What you say is very true"; "We must abate the thirst and then cure the fever". The patient says: "Aye aye. I hear you but Ill tell you how to save half the trouble cure the fever, & send me a nice cool tankard of Madeira and Ill abate the thirst myself"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"The interior of an apothecary's room: jars on shelves; a counter with drawers, pestle and mortar, flasks, &c. A bust of Galen stands on the lintel of the door (right). An alarmed undergraduate in cap and gown stands clasping his stomach. The doctor faces him triumphantly, with raised arms and holding a pill-box. His man, who wears an apron, walks off with a large box inscribed 'Anti-Fibbibus'. The (prose) inscription below the title relates that a 'College Wag' called on a 'travelling Empiric' and asked to be cured of a bad memory, and a habit of lying. He is cured by the 'gilded pill called - Pillula Memoria - Anti Fibbibus!!' The youth complains that he is poisoned with Asafœtida, the doctor answers that he speaks the truth and will never forget the medicine, so is cured."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A grotesque old doctor, with carbuncled nose, approaches a lady, bowing low and holding out a clumsy petticoat. He says: "Mrs Jenny said your Ladyship complain'd of being cold about the loins - so I have Just stept in with a warm flannel petticoat." She is seated beside a tea-table, and throws up her arms, flinching back in horror; she says: "I have no loins fellow! do you want to make a monster of me?!!" She wears a high-waisted, short-sleeved dress, under which her legs are defined. Her little dog barks at the doctor. A large urn and a small cup (overturned) and saucer, are the only objects on the table."--British Museum online catalogue
