Abstract:
The apprentice Francis Goodchild leans out the window to pay the leader of a band of drummers; with the band are two butchers playing 'rough music' with bones and cleavers. His bride, his former master's daughter can be seen in the room behind him sipping tea. The sign with a lion rampant announces the elevation of Goodchild from apprentice to partner: West and Goodchild. A poor mother with a child on her back kneels on the step at the front door as a footman dumps the remains of the wedding breakfast into her outstreched aprom. On the left in the street a legless beggar in a tub holds out a ballad sheet with the title "Jesse or the Happy Pair"; a dog sits at his side. In the background the foot of the Monument contains an anti-Roman Catholic inscription: "In rememberance ... of Burning [the] Protestant City by the treachery of the Papist Faction In ... year ... [o]f our ... Lo[r]d 1666." The right of the frame is decorated with a scourge, manacles and a hangman's rope; on the left frame hang the mace of the City of London, the alderman's gold chain and a sword of state

Abstract:
A defense of the unpopular ministry of John Stuart, third Earl of Bute, Hogarth takes off from a print published in August 1762 "John Bull's House sett in Flames". He depicts a London street scene in which the half the buildlings are in flames as the political factions either stir the flames or are battling to extinguish them. The fire is the Seven Years' War and the houses, Germany and France; the two men clasping hands are France and Spain who had recently joined in the fight against England

Abstract:
A scene outside the Bell Inn in which a country girl, Moll Hackabout, just arrived on the York Wagon, meets an extravagantly dressed bawd (Mother Needham); a clergyman on horseback fails to notice the encounter, but a lecherous old gentleman (Colonel Charteris) eyes the girl with anticipation. In the lower right the girl's initials "M.H." (M[ary?] Hackabout) are on her portmanteau, next to which is a basket with a goose with a note around its neck, "For my Loving Cosen in Tems Stret in London", presumably the person who has failed to meet her. In the background a woman hangs out her laundry on a balcony
