- Abstract:
- "John Bull, a hideously carbuncled 'cit', looks down grinning at a semicircle of men on a much smaller scale who surround his half-length figure. They are (left to right) Napoleon, wearing a huge bicorne, who looks up to say 'Ships. Colonies and Commerce'. A man in military uniform, quite unlike Alexander, his back to Napoleon, says: "Russian Vengeance attend John Bull. A fat Dutch burgher puffs smoke towards John, saying, III eternally smoke him". A scowling man in civilian dress with tousled hair says: "Let him tremble at the name of America". Prussia, a handsome military officer in place of the damaged soldier who after Tilsit represented Frederick William III in English caricature, says: "Beware of Prussia". A similar officer (Francis I) says: "Austria will never Pardon him". A Spaniard wearing a cocked hat says: "Spanish Fury overtake him". A scowling face says: "Let him beware of Denmark". John says: "Dont make such a riot you little noisy Brats, all your bustle to me is no more than a storm in a Chamber pot"."--British Museum online catalogue.

- Abstract:
- "An elderly schoolmaster sits by a writing-table, in profile to the right, addressing an old countrywoman who faces him, making a slight curtsey. Behind her (right) are four little boys, two with bags of books slung from the shoulder. The schoolmaster, who wears night-cap, slippers, and buttoned overcoat or dressing-gown, says: "Good woman you are always making complaints against my Scholars, what have they done to offend you now?" She answers: "Please your Honors Worship they followd me up and down--and said one to another--At her!--beat her! damn her!--pelt her!-- and a great deal more that I do not recollect". The leader of the boys, bowing, cap in hand, says: "Indeed Sir, we were only repeating our Greek Alphabet, in order to get quite perfect--what the Old Woman heard was only Alpha--Beta-- Gamma--Delta--and so on to the conclusion". The boys' expressions indicate a successful conspiracy."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

- Abstract:
- "Two men lie in the small truckle-beds (i.e., trundle bed) of a cheap lodging-house, one (left) asleep. An old woman holding a candle kneels at the foot of the other bed, and tugs at the wooden leg of its occupant. She says: "There is nothing like looking after Servants I always like to see that my lodgers are comfortable. --Aye here's a pretty careless trick--the warming pan left in the gentleman's bed I declare". Its owner, an angry sailor, shouts: "Hollo --Avast heaving Zounds dont pull off my timber--I went to bed half seas over and forgot to stow it alongside the hammock"."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a later state.

- Abstract:
- "Ten figures arranged in two rows, each with a caption. 'A Modest Woman of Quality': a lady stands holding a fan, directed to the right and looking to the left. 'A Primitive Bishop': a plainly dressed and ugly parson stands in profile to the right. 'A Real Maid of Five and Thirty': a woman walks in profile to the left, with a veil over hair and forehead, looking down and holding a half-closed fan before her face. 'An Exciseman with a Conscience' stands with his hands plunged in his breeches pocket, book under one arm, ink-bottle with pen fastened to his coat, a second pen behind his ear. An 'Author with a second suit of Cloaths' capers delightedly, apparently admiring his tasselled Hessian boots. 'A Great Man of Common Sense' is a handsome young man wearing a military coat with clocked stockings and pumps standing in profile to the right. 'A Woman who has continued three Months a Widow!' She looks alluringly through the meshes of a veil which partly covers her face; her dress is décolletée, and her pose inviting. 'A Theatrical Hero of Modesty and oeconomy': a good-looking young man bows, hat in hand. 'A Complete Honest Attorney' stands with head turned in profile to the right. 'A Man of Talents, Wit and Learning--possess'd of a Thousand a Year': a stout middle-aged man with a handsome profile stands holding out a bunch of papers inscribed '300', '200', '300', 10[0]."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.
