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

A man with a gouty foot sits at a table on which a caraffe and decanter sit with a glass. The figure of the devil sits in an upholsered armchair grinning at the man as he pours a glass of liquid on his head. To their right a skeleton on a three-legged stool is engaged in conversation with a clergy man, both holding glasses of wine. Between the pairs above their heads is written, "A fig for sack & sherry, Our cans we'll clink. Our liquor we'll drink, And we'll be wonderous merry."
