"A thin, sharp-featured man walks in the teeth of the wind, holding on his hat, and with his left hand in his breeches pocket. His hat-brim, hair, cravat, coat, the tail of his shirt, the strings of his breeches and shoes, all fly backwards. He walks (right to left) up a rough sandy road edged by windswept bushes. A milestone is inscribed 'To Hampstead Hill'. On the horizon (right) is St. Paul's, dominating the spires of London, and backed by dense cloud."--British Museum online catalogue

"Whitelocke stands passively, directed to the left., with flexed knees while two little drummer-boys complete his humiliation. One (l.) stands on tip-toe to cut off his epaulet, while the other stands on a drum behind him, breaking his sword over his head. Sword-belt, scabbard, gorget, epaulet, regimental buttons, and gold lace lie on the ground, as does a music-book open at 'The Rogue March', with a fife lying across it, to indicate that he has been drummed out of the army. On the left. the Devil, half length, emerges from the ground, surrounded by fire and smoke; he offers Whitelocke a cocked pistol, saying, "Now fellow if thou hast a spark of courage left take this." Whitelocke answers: "Have you taken the flint out." See BMSat 10974, &c."--British Museum online catalogue
