"Scene by a roadside pond opposite a picturesque inn (right). A few country-people watch a distressed cat in a bowl which floats precariously.

A boy, holding back a dog, and a girl sit together on the bank. A young couple in a gig at the inn-door watch the cat. Behind the pond (left) a tandem runs away overturning a gig."--British Museum online catalogue.

"A scene near the sea. Two naval officers carry off two plump and pretty girls and run towards a boat, where two sailors wait (left). They are followed by a fat old woman, screaming furiously and brandishing an umbrella.

"An untidy shock-headed footman stands letting a tureen slide on to the table so that its contents pour out; in his I. hand is a dish containing a leg of mutton, held so that joint and gravy fall to the floor. He stands between a hideous old woman at the head of the table (rigth) and a comely young one on her right. A fat maidservant follows the footman, holding a dish.

"Scene in a handsomely furnished dining-room, probably in a club. The table is close to the large fireplace (right). The diners, eight elderly men, rise from their chairs to gaze in angry dismay at a calamity caused by a dog who has tripped up a servant in the doorway, making him spill the contents of a dish, while the man immediately behind him lets the contents of a tureen pour out. A third (left), gaping at the accident while drawing the cork of a bottle of 'Spruce Beer', lets the contents squirt at his fellow servants. Two of the 'epicures' grasp knife and fork, two have napkins tucked under the chin, one is in military uniform, two seem to be parsons. The room is pillared, with a handsome moulded ceiling and elaborate hanging candelabrum. On the chimney-piece tankards and goblets flank the squatting figure of a Chinese glutton. Above it is a large mirror in a heavy carved frame. Over the door is a picture of gormandizing monks."--British Museum online catalogue.

In a crowded tavern before a large roaring fire, Dr. Syntax sits on a bench smoking his pipe as he engages in debate with three companions. A man leans over the back of the bench and blows a large cloud of smoke into the back of Dr. Syntax's head. The room is filled with military personnel who frolic and flirt with pretty girls; the barmaid stands at the bar pouring wine. Everyone has a full glass at hand. The signs on either side of a large clock read "Real Yorkshie stinco" and "No trust here".

"A grotesquely obese man (his hat placed under his plump knees) kneels at the feet of an ugly and bedizened woman, fantastically lean and tall. She holds up a fan, and looks down alluringly at her lover to whom she gives her left hand. They are in the circular portico of a 'Mausoleum' (right). In the background is an avenue and a statue of Hercules, towards which a fat woman and a lean parson of the Dr. Syntax type are walking arm-in-arm. The muscular Hercules is contrasted with the four other types of physique represented."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.
