- Abstract:
- "A dancing-master, playing his small fiddle or kit, dances, facing a stout 'cit' who dances between wife and daughter, holding their hands; another grown-up daughter dances opposite them beside the dancing-master. The 'cit's' leg is extended stiffly. The first daughter says: "Law Pa that's just as when you was drilling for the Whitechaple Volunteers-- only look how Ma and I & sister Clementina does it??--" Pa: "I say Mounseer Caper! don't I come it prime? Ecod I shall cut a Figor!!" The man answers: "Vere vell Sar, Ver Vell you vil danse a merveille vere soon!" On the left a tiny child imitates her father's step, supported by a little sister, while three rather older children dance in a ring. A plainly dressed maiden aunt sits in an armchair (right). A handsomely furnished drawing-room is suggested. The curtains are drawn, candles burn on the chimney piece. On the wall is a bust portrait of an austere-looking man."--British Museum online catalogue, descriptioin of an earlier state

- 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
