Caption title., In verse., A political satire of Admiral Augustus Keppel (1725-1786), navy officer and politician, and his unfortunate campaign for the seat of Surrey in 1780. The broadside is augmented by the engraved illustration featuring Keppel, his ship HMS Formidable ablaze, and fourteen other figures, all in service of "Merit protected. Persecution repelled. Undue Influence defeated." The lengthy satirical poem was prompted by the 1780 election for the commons in Surrey. It references his previous courts-martial for his conduct during the Battle of Ushant, and comments on the state of the nation, war, and the economy., Engraving signed in lower left: Argus del. et sculp., Engraving with imprint below image: Publish'd as the Act directs, Novr. 25, 1780., Stockdale advertised the sheet in the General Advertiser, Nov. 27, 1780., and For further information, consult library staff.
