Abstract:
"A blind beggar, Sir Cecil Wray, is led (right to left) by his dog, round whose neck hangs a 'Subscription Box'. He supports himself by a long staff; in his left hand is the dog's cord, and under his left arm is a larger box, inscribed 'Subscription Scrutiny Box'. He sings: "Pity the Weak, and Needy pray, Oh pity me, I've lost the day." Behind the dog is a placard inscribed: "See here the Dog, of all his kind, The fittest for a Beggar blind, The Beast can bark or grunt as Hog. His name is Churchill - Oh the Dog!"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Fox, dressed as a watchman, stands full-face, his right hand grasping his staff (inscribed 'Uprightness'), his left on his hip. Over his head is the word 'Liberty'; his lantern stands on the ground beside him sending forth rays inscribed 'Truth'. His dog (left) is 'Vigilance'. Zigzag flashes of lightning among clouds, inscribed 'Ministerial Thunderbolts', threaten him from all sides. In the background (right) two sham watchmen are running off to the right holding staves and dark lanterns, which contrast with that of Fox, which sheds its rays in all directions. The foremost is Sir Cecil Wray in military uniform, saying, "For Chelsea Ho a"; the other wearing a hooded cloak over his naval uniform is Lord Hood saying, "For Greenwich Ho a". They are followed by two dogs."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"'Cits' gallop (right to left) across a rough field near London, with one or two mongrel dogs under the horses' hooves. One leaps a small piece of water over the head of a man who has fallen in. A fat man is flung upwards from his prostrate horse. In the background is a 'cit's country box' surrounded by a wall, above which projects a gazebo, in the Chinese taste (cf. British Museum Satires No. 8208 by Bunbury). Tiny figures watch from a window and from the wall. Near the wall ride two little chimney-sweeps on an ass, and a woman on a broken-kneed horse."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A group of men standing outside an inn with the sign of the 'Bugle horn'. One, wearing a broad-brimmed hat, holds in his left hand a paper inscribed 'Courier / Dispatch [?]... / Stocks'. His right forefinger is extended as if laying down the law to his companions. On his right stands a man holding his chin with an expression of deep thought. Next to him (left) is an artisan, listening intently, his breeches unfastened at the knee, his stockings ungartered; he holds a short hammer and is probably a shoemaker. Behind (right) a man wearing a waistcoat over a ruffled shirt, but no coat, lounges against the stump of a tree and listens open-mouthed. On the top of the stump is an open dish of food which a dog is eating."--British Museum online catalogue
