- Abstract:
- "Satire on the resignation of Lord Bute. George III is enthroned, Peace and Fame flying above and a large dog and a lion crouching at his feet; he welcomes the Duke of Newcastle and William Pitt who kneel before him (it was assumed that these two men would return to government, although in the event George Grenville replaced Bute). Britannia is seated in the centre of the print, facing a hydra-headed monster of faction; she is saying "See this and Tremble all you that wish evil to Israel" (Israel standing for England); behind her a Spaniard and a Frenchman despair at their loss. At top left, the Lord Mayor of London (probably intended for William Beckford) and a group of aldermen approach the king with a petition. At top right, a witch flies off on a broomstick over the "Flus Jordanus" to the "Alpes Herbronites" (the River Tweed and Scotland) carrying Henry Fox, two other ministers and the devil. One of the ministers wishes that "the Devil had the Author of Gisbal" (see BM Satires 3848) alluding to the role of the satirists in driving Bute to resign. Charles Churchill and John Wilkes fire at the broomstick, Wilkes wanting "One Pounce more and we will bring that Irish Owl to the Ground". In the foreground, on the right, Princess Augusta runs off carrying a diminutive Bute in a large boot on her back; she is chased by the Duke of Cumberland brandishing a sword and crying "Damn the Scotch Loon he flies faster than his Bretheren did in 45. If I come up with him I'll spoil his Running"; the young Duke of York runs with him. On the left, a group of sailors harrass a Scotsman declaring,"We will stand by our Noble Captain till not a Sawney be feft in the Land", "O O Jack see what this Dog has got to wet his Whistle with" and "Lend me your Sneaker [a rod] Tom I'll Probe him who knows but the Rascal has got his Belly full"; coins fall from the bagpipes clutched beneath the Scotsman's arm."--British Museum catalogue

- Abstract:
- "Satire on the negotiations for the Peace of Paris. A lion and lioness (the King and Queen) look in alarm from the window of a coach (Great Britain) as it crashes against a large rock. Lord Bute, the driver, and Princess Augusta, who has been sitting beside him, fall headlong to the ground and the horses (bearing names connected with British actions in the Seven Years War: "Germany", "Guardeloup", "Pondechery", "America", "Martinico" and "Quebec") run off. Bute cries out, "De'el dam that Havanna Snuff its all most blinded me". The postilion, Henry Fox, lies on the ground having hit his head on a rock labelled "Newfound Land"; a speech balloon lettered "Snugg" emerges from his mouth. Behind him Pitt, holding a whip, grasps the leading horse's reins; the Marquis of Granby gallops up to assist him, together with William Beckford (who was shortly to become Lord Mayor of London) and the Duke of Newcastle. In the foreground is a conflict involving a number of journalists: Bute's supporters, Arthur Murphy and Tobias Smollett shoot their pistols at Pitt, and further to the right Charles Churchill, in clerical robes, fires a cannon labelled "North Briton" at them, causing another man to fall to the ground his arm resting on a copy of the Gazetteer (the fallen man must be either Charles Say, editor, or John Almon, contributor to the Gazetteer, an anti-Bute newspaper), with the headline, "A letter from Darlington" (a reference to Henry Vane, 2nd Earl of Darlington, a relation of Bute's by marriage). The British lion beside Churchill urinates on the Scottish thistle. Behind this group, the Duke of Cumberland runs forward anxiously mopping his bald head, having lost his wig. In the background are Lord Mansfield and the Earl of Loudon, the latter suggesting that they retreat (a reference to his failure to capture Louisbourg from the French in 1757). To the right a group of Scotsmen are driven off by two Englishmen with whips; another Scot sits on the ground scratching himself."--British Museum online catalogue
