Abstract:
"Two sailors carry (right to left) a sedan-chair, in which sits a young prostitute, with one leg out of the front window, as if to kick the bearer, who smokes with closed eye. A third sailor sits tipsily on the roof, smoking; he says: "Come Messmates heave a head". Two sailors wear striped trousers, the third a short petticoat and a large fur cap. Behind (right) is the portico of St. Paul's, Covent Garden, with two men, one a Jew, the other a (?) tipsy parson. On the left. is the corner of the Piazza, the wall inscribed 'Covent Garden'."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"A Quaker stands by an open grave, with clasped hands, eyes sanctimoniously turned up. A grave-digger leans on his spade watching him with puzzled distaste. The Quaker: "Verily the spirit at length beginneth to move me - Alas! there is no happiness on this side of the grave." A disgruntled sailor (dressed as in British Museum Satires No. 10894, coat open to show a waistcoat) who stands opposite him asks: "Why then you Lubber, dont you come on this side?" A second Quaker stands behind the first, hands clasped, looking down; on the extreme left a woman in a Quaker's bonnet puts her handkerchief to her eyes. Behind the sailor and on the extreme right is another mourner, also puzzled and unsympathetic. The scene is a large walled graveyard; a skull lies by the open grave, grinning up at the Quaker."--British Museum online catalogue

"Irishmen in volunteer uniform are mounted on galloping bulls; each faces the animal's tail. They hold shillelaghs, wear pouches inscribed 'Potatoes', and fling potatoes towards a small band of ragged sansculottes (right) from whom they are galloping away. These Frenchmen advance, firing muskets; the most prominent fires a cannon. The foremost volunteer, that is, the farthest from the enemy, shouts: "Stop! Stop! ye Scoundrils we shall Soon be after coming up wit ye." The second: "By Jasus if we follow them up at this rate we shall soon see the Tieves out of sight." The third: "Hubbubboo! how the Rogues run their's no overtaking them." The bulls are making for a chasm (left) into which one in the middle distance leaps. In the background are some who have reached comparative safety, but continue to hurl potatoes."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"Stock-jobbers with large heads, elongated as in British Museum Satire No. 10610, &c, and grotesquely caricatured, stand in pairs on the pavement of the Royal Exchange. One says to another: "So - - Jemmy Diddle-'em is a Bankrupt"; the other answers: "Why you surprise me, then I am in a Pretty Mess!!"; both pull very long faces. A highly delighted broker looks at a paper inscribed 'Omnium 3 Per Ct', saying, "a tolerable good mornings work I have made of it". His vis-à-vis, a bearded Jew, asks: "Hash any bodish got any Omnium to disposh of?" On the extreme right. a pair in confidential conversation say: "Extraordinary news just arrived - had it from the best authority at Lloyds", and "The Devil there is." In the middle distance are two other couples. Behind, and faintly drawn (left), are the statue of Charles II and the arcade along one side of the quadrangle with the feet of statues in the niches above."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Ten Odd Fellows with grotesque faces watch a sailor who stands, arms akimbo, wary and pugnacious. The chairman sits in a raised armchair, smoking and drinking, behind a small table on which are two lighted candles. On the back of his chair are three small but realistic heads, seeming to watch the proceedings. A man in a dressing-gown, introduces the sailor, doffing a night-cap: "Most worthy Chairman Mr Benjamin Block of Wapping Old Stairs - attends to be made a Member of the Ancient and honorable Society." The sailor, who wears round hat, short blue jacket, a petticoat (as in earlier prints), and buckled shoes, says: "Avast my Hearties, - before I've proceeded any further on the voyage let me know what course you are steering - if you mean to frighten a British sailor with your goggle eyes, and queer faces you are d------dly mistaken - besides it appears to me that you have got masks on which is like fighting under false colours, and that wont do for an English Jack Tar!"."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
