"A burlesqued tailor with a huge paunch and small legs stands in profile to the left, facing a gale and rain, encumbered with a little girl clinging to his neck, and by large roll of cloth under the right arm; he tries to open his umbrella, having placed his cane between his legs; tied to the handle in a handkerchief are books of patterns, which are blowing away, like his wig, hat, and the child's bonnet; his coat, with tape-measure, streams behind him ..."

"Below the title: '(i e) Being dragg'd through mud & Mire by your Cockney friend, (who has lately taken-- a -- seat in the Country) to show the improvements! & his ignorance in Farming.' The fat 'cit', wearing top-boots, stands deep in mire, his hand resting on a heap of straw and dung (left); he turns to a file of agonized visitors who are picking their way on stones, saying, "Here's a charming lot of dung for you -- Now tho' you would not think it I made every bit of this dung myself since I came here! & you know that's not long!" A little boy, standing on the heap with a pitchfork, points to a pool, saying, "Yes & that pond was'nt there when papa first came; Papa made all that water too, all himself!" The foremost visitor registers astonishment; the other three are concerned only with the mud. A frightened boy watches the procession. On the right a woman tries to help her husband, a dandy, from mire that is sucking off his boot, and who holds by the hand (but disregards) a small child who has fallen deep in the muck, terrified at the onset of a menacing duck followed by ducklings. The fat hostess, standing before an unmistakable garden-latrine (right), takes his shoulder, saying, "Never mind my husbands nasty dung--come this way Mr B, & I'll show you my Grotto & Waterfall!" She points to water gushing into a pool from a tiny artificial cave on which stands a Venus pudica. This is flanked by little arbours (each surmounted by a flower-pot which indicates the scale) and each containing a seat. A dove-cot is surmounted by the figure of Harlequin or Mercury holding a purse. Behind are small trees, a haystack, and the roof of the house."--British Museum online catalogue
