Abstract:
"A cricket-match. The King (left), who is nearest the picture-plane and larger in scale than the others, has just bowled, with arms flung wide, a huge ball inscribed 'Reform', hitting the batsman, Wellington, in the stomach and knocking him against the stumps. Grey fields near the King, exclaiming, 'Hu.a he's Out'; the King: 'Aye and with a Ground hopper too'. Farther off (left to right) are Burdett (in top-boots), Lord John Russell, who says 'Thats what I call a Purger' [see British Museum Satires No. 16602], and Brougham. All the players wear shirts and waistcoats. There are also two others in the field (as spectators they wear coats), Aberdeen (indicated by tartan) who says 'Foul Foul', and Cumberland. In the background are many frantically cheering spectators and a marquee from which flies a flag inscribed 'Umpire Public Opinion'."--British Museum online catalogue

"A band of assailants led by an irate bishop approaches from the right, to the attack of a stone building, a corner of the lower part of which is on the left. A closed door is inscribed 'Office of Justice'; from an open window immediately above it a man leans out, pistol in hand, saying, "This is my House this is my Castle". Two women kneel beside the stout bishop, one clutches his arm to restrain him, the other weeps; a third standing behind also weeps. Two parsons with clenched fists stand behind the bishop, one, who is fat, says "Turn him out"; the other, who is lean, says: "Ill thrach the Dog I'll box him what Dare to act contrary to the Opinions of his Spiritual Dictator, no not even in his Temporals, Turn him out." A third equally irate parson stands alone on the left of the door. A crowd with clubs and banners brings up the rear behind the clergy; the most conspicuous are two footmen in livery. The three banners are: 'Church Millitant', 'Unqualified Submission to our Spiritual Guides', and 'All Obedience.'"--British Museum online catalogue
