- Abstract:
- Charles Fox vomits into his turban as he sits cross-legged on a mangy-looking ass with Lord North's face. The ass is being led by a female figure symbolizing the City of London and followed by Burke, dressed as a Jesuit, barefoot and bald, reading the "Sinners Guide." On the right, the King is leaning out of an open window of the India House waving the cap of liberty on a stick. A paper with the words 'India Bill' crossed out, hangs from the window, below which the wall is inscribed, "Business done as usual." A large sun in a royal crown rises above the roof
