Peel, dressed as the "Cad" of BM Satires No. 15734, &c, says: 'Odd Rat 'em-I'm afeard on 'em.' The bishop claps his hand over his breeches pocket and scowls; he says: 'Two very suspicious looking fellows-dodging me about-I hope they are not going to pick my pocket.'"--British Museum online catalogue and A bishop wearing an apron walks to the right.

- Abstract:
- "A huge pot rests directly on a fierce fire from blazing bank-notes. The scene is outside the Bank of England, the façade being on the extreme right. From it porters are carrying huge stacks of 'Notes' to add to the flames. The pot is inscribed 'Bank Pot' [twice], and 'Cash Payments at the Bottom of this Pot', where it is badly cracked owing to the fire. The pot is filled with Bank Directors, whose heads and arms emerge. They shriek: "I am in a Stew"; "I am sure the Pots Crackd," and "Take care it don't Break." A fashionably dressed man ascends a ladder leaning against the pot (right); he shouts to those inside "have you found the Gold." The fire is being stirred up by (?) Peel; Vansittart, in his Chancellor of the Exchequer's gown, uses a mace to push the man up the ladder. Huge clouds of smoke ascend from the fire covering much of the design; they are inscribed 'Smoke' and 'Cash Payments Smoke'. Two spectators stand on the left, watching the hurly-burly. One, a 'cit', says: "There's a pretty Kettle of Fish." The other, a countryman in a smock, answers: "Lord bless you they ban't Fish they be all paper"."--British Museum online catalogue
