- Abstract:
- "A stage-coach is driven (left to right) uphill at a gallop, the horses having human heads as in BMSat 7323. The arm of a signpost on the extreme left points 'To the Temple of Honor'. Thurlow drives, lashing furiously. George III, in profile to the right, is seated in the boot at the back of the coach holding a musket with a fixed bayonet. The Queen sits on the roof as an outside passenger, dressed as an old market-woman ; she holds a basket of 'Golden Eggs' on her knee, and another basket at her side in which is a goose which hisses at the King. Within the coach Hastings (left) and Mrs. Hastings (right) sit facing each other; he is in oriental dress; she wears a jewelled turban with a crown, and her neck is covered with jewels. The coach is 'Licens'd by Royal Authority'; on its panel are the royal arms. On the box under Thurlow's legs are a star and ribbon, a coronet, and feathers. The leaders have the faces of Pitt1 and Sydney, the wheelers are Dundas and Pepper Arden. The horses are galloping uphill and the sky is clear, contrasting with the scene in BMSat 7323."--British Museum online catalogue.

- "The King and Queen (left), seated under a canopy decorated with a crown and the royal arms, listen enraptured to a concert; the performers are arranged in a pyramid on the right. ... George III leans back, his hands clasped, eyes turned ecstatically upwards; he wears a laurel wreath and his head is surrounded by a star-shaped halo. The Queen sits upright with an eager expression, beating time; her hair and scraggy neck are covered with jewels (cf. BMSat 6978, &c). On the extreme left, and on the King's right, stands Pitt, very erect, a rattle in his right hand, blowing a whistle attached to a child's coral and bells. Behind the Queen are two ladies ... The royal party are on a circular carpet. On the roof of the canopy sits a demon holding up a purse in each hand, emblem of the supposed avarice of the King and Queen, a favourite subject with Gillray, cf. BMSat 7166, and see BMSat 7836, &c. Three demon hounds, inscribed 'G. R. Windsor', chase a realistically drawn fox (Fox), to whose tail is tied (by a ribbon inscribed 'Coalition') a pot with the features of North. The performers are arranged behind a low semicircular barrier. A stout man with a goat's head is asleep on the left, his hands clasped on his breast; from his pocket protrudes a paper inscribed 'Road to Wynnstay' (cf. BMSat 7068, &c). ..."--British Museum online catalogue.

- "The design follows that of BMSat 7313 which it parodies. Hastings (three quarter length), in profile to the right, holds out his hands to demonstrate the objects which are seen in the diminishing rays of his camera obscura, and which reflect (in the foreground) the objects from the upper part of the design. These are [1] an 'Elephant' chained to a British flag devouring an Indian and trampling on the body of another; [2] 'Mount Ossa', a conical mountain. [3] 'Begums in Tears': a British officer raises his sword to smite a kneeling Indian woman whom he holds by the hair; other women kneel at his feet; on the ground is a decapitated infant. A wagon, with a British flag, inscribed 'Plunder' drives off in the background. [4] 'a Whale' spouting. In the rays of the camera obscura these objects, much reduced, are respectively inscribed: 'a Flea', 'a Wart'. 'Skin'd Mice'. 'An Ouzle'. Three persons (half length) stand on the right watching the reflected scenes: Thurlow says "Charmingly diminish'd". Queen Charlotte, decked with jewels, clasps her hands, saying with a pleased smile, "Poor Mice! I shall cry my Eyes out". George III looks through an opera-glass, saying, '"Very like an Ouzle"'."--British Museum online catalogue.

- Abstract:
- "Pitt, Hastings, and Thurlow, the State Jugglers, are on a platform outside the gate of St. James's Palace. Above the gate projects the sign of the Crown inn, across which rests a plank forming a see-saw; on this the King (right) as Punch sits facing Queen Charlotte, dressed as Judy or Mother Shipton; she takes a pinch of snuff, the King holds out his hands as if in disapproval. A crowd of suppliants surrounds the platform. Pitt, bending towards them, pulls ribbons from his mouth; three men on the extreme left hold out their arms eagerly: one is a naval officer, a 'Log Book' under his arm shows that he is Sir Alexander Hood, see BMSat 5536, K.B. elect, see BMSat 7318. The second is Wilkes; the third cannot be identified. Hastings kneels between Pitt and Thurlow, his hands crossed humbly on his breast, a copious stream of coins issues from his mouth. Dundas, Lansdowne, Sydney, a bishop, and a fifth suppliant hold out their hats eagerly to catch the coins. Thurlow stands erect, his hands on his hips, flames and smoke issuing from his mouth inscribed "Hell-Fire, my Soul, Dam, Blast, Eyes, Heaven, Curse, Limbs, Blood". A little chimney-sweep [The sweep is said to represent Frederick Montagu, one of the Commissioners in Fox's India Bill. Wright and Evans.] and a ragged fishwife, a basket of fish on her head, stand gazing at him with wonder and admiration. On the extreme right, at the side of the platform, Fox, supported on the shoulders of Burke, slyly holds out his hat behind Thurlow; Sheridan (?) [Identified by Wright and Evans as the Duke of Norfolk] supports them. ..."--British Museum online catalogue.

- Abstract:
- "A pack of hounds is in full cry after an animal with the head of Hastings which runs through the gate of St. James's Palace (right). He wears a turban; a collar round his neck is inscribed 'Hyana', and a large bag inscribed 'Diamonds & Rupees' is tied to his tail. The hounds are being whipped back by Thurlow (left) who rides an ass with the head of the King, shouting "Back! Back!" He wears a hunting-cap and boots with monstrous spurs, with his Chancellor's wig and gown. He is riding over the hounds who have the heads of the leading Managers of Hastings's impeachment. North (not a Manager) lies prostrate and apparently dead under the ass's heels. Burke is being crushed under the animal's off foreleg, while the other kicks Fox. The foremost of the pack is Sheridan, his collar inscribed 'Drury Lane'. Behind him are Fox, a dog whose collar is inscribed 'Francis' (not a Manager, see BMSat 7268), and Michael Angelo Taylor, his collar inscribed 'Law-Chick', see BMSat 6777. The King's head is in profile to the right, his saddle is ornamented with a crown and a jewel is suspended from his neck, probably the famous diamond, see BMSat 6966, &c. Two sentries stand at the gate of the Palace with pens in their caps, probably indicating that they are the two Secretaries of State, [In Wright and Evans they are identified as Sydney and Pitt. Sidney's vis-à-vis, scarcely recognizable, resembles Pitt in BMSat 7312] Sydney (left) and Carmarthen (right), to whom there is some resemblance, and who are peers, cf.

On the other side of the bed Liberty with her cap and staff clasps her hands in supplication for the preservation of the Prince; behind her stand Fox, Burke, North, and (?) Sheridan in similar attitudes. In the foreground (left) Time advances with his scythe towards the Prince; he has mown down a man who falls backwards holding on his shoulder a naked African with a broken spear (? Death). The African, about to fall, clutches the head of an apothecary seated on the ground. Rays of light fall diagonally on the Prince; clouds extend over him and his would-be assassins. Resting on the clouds is a scroll inscribed: '1800 \ Glory, \ Conquest, \ Submission of \ America - Perfidy of France \ respecting the Treaty'. Above the Prince's head are his feathers and 'Ich Dien'."--British Museum online catalogue.
