- "Fox, Sheridan, and Powys are engaged in opening a large rectangular tomb inscribed '[H]ere lie [t]he Remains [of] Mr F------s India Bill'. On the front of the tomb are two winged heads of cherubs and a scroll inscribed 'India Bill'. Fox (left), facing the inscribed end of the tomb, lifts the covering slab with both hands; the head of a skeleton looks out, holding out a crown in one hand, the other grasps the edge of the tomb and a cere-cloth inscribed 'Patronage'. Sheridan (right) stands in back view blowing a trumpet from which issues a scroll inscribed 'it was opposed by a sencless Yell'; on the banner of the trumpet are the words 'Compare the two'. Powys stands behind the tomb, leaning forward and blowing a trumpet, from which issues a scroll inscribed 'a bold Measure characteristic of the Movers Mind'. On the extreme left, above Fox, is a bell inscribed 'Vox Populi', tilted at an angle which shows that it is ringing; from it issues a long scroll which falls into the tomb, inscribed: 'Lie still if youre wise youll be d if you rise'. In the foreground are skulls and bones."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a different version of the same design
