"An imitation of British Museum Satires No. 6015, Gillray's 'Ahitophel in the Dumps'. Liverpool, emaciated and despairing, and much caricatured, rides an ass along a road on a desolate heath towards a gibbet (left), to which carrion birds are flying. His arms are folded, his head sunk on his breast; from his pocket hang a noose of rope and a paper: 'Paines & Penelties' [sic]. The bag to his wig is a green bag, see British Museum Satires No. 13735, and to the ass's tail is tied a clyster-pipe, emblem of Sidmouth."--British Museum online catalogue

"Fourteen small children amuse themselves uproariously in a small space. Four little girls in party-dresses, dance holding hands round a lady who tosses an infant; two of them hold up dolls. A fat and grinning cook stands in the doorway with a tray of jelly-glasses, cake, and fruit. The biggest boy rides a rocking-horse, giving a view-hallo; another boy with an overturned chair for horses, drives in a professional manner a high-slung rectangular cradle (left) in which sits a little girl holding a doll and an open umbrella. A little boy with a wooden sword tries to storm a table, defended by two others, with drum, trumpet, and Union Jack. These children are dressed up to suit their parts. In the foreground (right) two children build a card-house on the floor, with skipping-rope, toy soldiers, and horse and cart beside them. On the left are a top and whip, and an Eaton Latin Grammar. On the wall is pinned a caricature of Dr Syntax [see BM Satires 11507, &c] with birch-rod and book."--British Museum online catalogue
