"The Convention, a creature with the body of a stout woman and with seven monstrous and demoniac heads, sits full-face in an accoucheur's chair. A little demon on the ground holds up a pitchfork. A French surgeon, smiling (right), with shirt-sleeves rolled up, holds a clumsy pair of forceps; a Dutch accoucheur, fat and senile, peers into a folio volume: 'Sectio Caes: et Sectio Synchondroseos'. '. . . L'accoucheur Français, homme experimenté, prévoit ses terribles convulsions, et s'est déja muni du forceps. Son collegue Hollandais, dont les craintes vont encore plus loin, repete la théorie de l'incision Caesarienne. Il faudrait effectivement un Caesar, pour couper court à tout proces.' Text, 'Isaiah', xiv. 29. Her fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent."--British Museum online catalogue.
