"An elderly Scots bonnet laird or farmer stands repeating the song, which is a complaint of the extravagance and misconduct of his wife. He wears a round Scots bonnet and a tartan plaid over his coat, long stockings, and shoes tied with strings, tattered gloves from which his fingers protrude; a cane is suspended from his left wrist. He holds in his left hand a small tankard with an open lid indicating in London 'a dram' or gin. In the background is a small house, partly visible on the left, outside which stands the wife, drunk and flourishing a similar tankard; a wine-bottle lies at her feet, a man leans from the window. On the right is a farm building wiuth a horse, two cows, and a broken fence. In the foreground right is a large thistle."--British Museum catalogue

A social satire: a beggar wearing ragged clothes and leaning on a crutch hold his hat out towards a old, well-dressed woman as he says, "My angelic young lady! Heaven preserve your ladyship's beautiful shape and countenance these thousand years! Give a halfpenny to a poor old man." Her face is caricatured, with a large pig-like nose from which long hairs protrude and with growths on her face, but she carries a parasol and is fashionably dressed and wears a feather and flower in her hair and earrings and large beaded necklace

"Fox (left) and Burke (right) sit side by side in the stocks as Hudibras and his 'squire Ralpho. One foot of each is imprisoned; their hands are clasped. Burke looks at Fox, who sits with closed eyes and a dejected expression. Pitt stands (right) holding a halberd and a bunch of three keys labelled 'Treasury'. All are in pseudo-seventeenth-century costume. On the wall behind Fox hangs a scourge with two lashes, one inscribed 'Prerogative', the other 'Vox Populi', indicating the two causes of the fall of the Coalition. Behind Burke's head is a placard: 'This day is pubd------An Essay on ye Tumblime and Beautifull by Ralph B.' (an allusion to Burke's essay on 'The Sublime and the Beautiful'). In front of the stocks lie two papers inscribed 'India Bill' and 'Warrant of... Temple', since Temple had conveyed to the Lords the king's desire for the defeat of the India Bill. A whipping-post attached to the stocks is inscribed 'Otium cum Dignitate'. Beneath the design is etched: 'Sure none that see how here we sit, Will judge us overgrown with wit; For who without a cap & bauble Having subdu'd, a bear & rabble, And might with honor have come off, Would put it to a second proof: A Politic exploit right fit, For Coalition zeal & wit! Hudibrass.'"--British Museum online catalogue
