"Illustration to the Oxford Magazine, 1768, vol.1 facing p.52, satirizing the dispute between the licentiates and fellows of the College of Physicians. Licentiates, mostly dressed in tartan and so identified as Scots, break through a door into a room in the College. At a table on the right, a group of fellows presided over by Death (a skeleton in official robes and wig) recoil, crying, ""These Northern Locusts want to Govern every where", "My fingers itch to be at them", "D[a]m their Scots Pills! they have ruin'd the Constituion of England" and "They pretend to cure the Kings Evil". The attackers are led by a licentiate in a zany's dress and jack-boots (a reference to Lord Bute) holding a shield and flail; he is followed by another man, who holds a large pair of shears; others flourish a pestle, a dagger and a club. In the foreground a Scot directs a clyster at one of the fellows hitting him in the mouth with a jet of liquid. A fellow has pushed a licentiate to the ground and is pouring the contents of a urinal into his throat. On the floor lies an enormous urinal, pillboxes and medicne bottle, and a soldier's haversack, labelled, "St Georges Composing Pills prepared by Dr Gillam." ( a reference to the magistrate who ordered soldiers to fire on the crowd gathered in St George's Fields in support of John Wilkes on 10 May 1768)."--British Museum online catalogue

Barrington, William Wildman Barrington, Viscount, 1717-1793,
"The interior of a panelled room: ten men holding hands dance in a circle to the tune of a bag-pipe played by Bute (l.) wearing a kilt and appearing from behind a curtain. The king watches with pleased amusement from behind a door (r.). The dancers are trampling on papers and state documents. Lord North, trampling on papers inscribed "National Debt" and "Grievances", is between Lord Bathurst in his Chancellor's robes but wearing a hat, and Lord Barrington in a military coat under whose feet are "Dispatches from War Office"; under Bathurst's foot is a paper, "Appeals, Decrees". Next him (r.) is a youthful-looking minister stepping on a paper inscribed "French Grammar" to show that he is Suffolk, Secretary of State, pilloried for his ignorance of French, see BMSat 4875, 4876. His neighbour is only partly visible. Next comes a military officer trampling on a paper inscribed "Middlesex Election" to show that he is Colonel Luttrell. On Luttrell's r., and the central figure of the design, is Lord Mansfield wearing tartan stockings to show that he is a Scot and dancing upon "Magna Charta". On his right. is an unidentified figure, then a minister treading on papers inscribed "Whitfield Hymns" to show (not very consistently) that he is Lord Dartmouth, whose strong attachment to the Methodists earned the nickname of the Psalm-singer. He had succeeded Hillsborough as Secretary of State for the Colonies on 14 Aug. 1772. Between him and Barrington stands Sandwich, wearing a sailor's trousers and standing on "The Petition of the Navy Captains". Bute stands on a paper "To Miss Vansittar[t]". Other papers on the ground are "The Remonstr[ance of the City]" and "Petition of the East India Comp"."--British Museum online catalogue
