"John Bull stands with a whip, jovially watching the baking of ships for France in a 'Dutch Oven' (right). A fat Dutchman, an empty pipe in his mouth, pushes into the oven on a shovel a batch of ships, saying, "Donder & Blaxan to Dis Fraternization instead of smoaking mine Pipes & sacking De Gold, Dis french Broders make me build Ships Dat Mynheer Jan Bull may have De Fun to take dem." A ragged Frenchman kneels behind him holding out another batch of ships on a tray, saying, "Sacredieu Citoyens make a Haste wit one autre Fleet, den we will shew you how to make one grande Invasion." Beside the oven (right) a French peasant, more ragged and abject, approaches with a heavy receptacle inscribed: 'Ruination, Botheration, Confiscation, Requisition, Plunderation, Limitation, Execution, Constitution, Fraternization, Naturalization, Expedition, Abolition, Cutthroatation & Damnation'. Behind the Dutchman a Spaniard supports on his head a tray of cannon, saying, "How! That Nelson wit one Arm & Eye, can take our Ships by Dozens then vat shall we do against the autres, wid two Arms and Eyes, dey will have two dozen at a Time". John Bull answers, a hand on his fat paunch, "What? you could not find that out before you stupid Dupes, but since you began the fun you shall keep on - So work away Damn ye else Jack Tar will soon be idle". Behind (left) a grinning Jack Tar capers, with a large tray of ships on his head, saying, "Push on keep moving [cf. BMSat 9010] I'll soon come for another Cargo for Old England for ever Huzza."--British Museum online catalogue.

"John Bull (left), a benevolent 'cit', and a Spaniard (right), stand in front of piles of military stores. John's right hand is deep in his coat-pocket, in his left hand is a cudgel of 'Oak'. He says, smiling at the Spaniard: "My good Friend you see I have brought you Clothing for Ten thousand men Viz Cheese Shoes stockings belts and small Clothes besides Arms and Amunition, and if that wont do Ill bring you Gully and Gregson and the Devil is in it if they wont do!" The Spaniard, with his hands on his hips, and an expression of stern resolution, answers: "We thank thee Johnny for all thou hast brought, and if thou cans't bring the other two we shall be more obliged to thee." At John's feet are guineas and a bag of 'Gold'; the stores behind him are cannon-balls, packages of 'Coats', 'Shirts', 'Belts', piles of cheeses inscribed 'Stilton Cheese' [on top], 'Cheshire Cheese', 'Gloucester Cheese', 'Cambridge Cheese', 'Yorkshire Cheese', 'Leistershire Cheese', 'Cottenham Cheese', and 'Bath Cheese', 'Wiltshire Cheese', 'Cream Cheese', 'Derbyshire Cheese', partly hidden by a great pile of shoes. Beside the Spaniard are swords, pistols, a package of 'Stockings' a cask, and bayoneted muskets."--British Museum online catalogue.
