- Abstract:
- "Fox and his party (three quarter length) surround a Twelfth Night cake which Weltje was about to cut into portions. The cause of a sudden check to this proceeding is indicated by a broad ray of light (which strikes the cake and the bystanders) and by a scroll: 'The King shall enjoy his own again'. Weltje stands on the left, his arms extended towards the scroll, saying, "Den by Got we sail heb no Cake"; he drops his knife. He and Sheridan are the most agitated of the party: Sheridan with a face of despair looks up, saying, '"Now our Ruin is complete" School for Scandal'. (He is Joseph Surface as in British Museum Satires No. 7510, &c; the actual words are "Tis now complete!') Fox stands disconsolately, his hands in his pockets, his back to the ray. Burke (right), his arms folded, scowls up at the ray. Behind these three Stormont, Loughborough, and Sandwich (on the extreme right) regard it with less pronounced despair. Portland stands behind the cake, frowning fixedly. The centre of the cake is ornamented with the Prince of Wales's coronet and feathers (as are Weltje's buttons); on the centre feather is poised a crown. The cake has been marked in sections where it is to be cut, these are inscribed 'Ist Lord Admy' [Sandwich had been considered for the post and also for that of Ambassador to France], 'Secrety State foreign' [Fox], 'Secrety State home' [Stormont], 'Paymar Genl' [Burke], 'Ist Comm Board Control', and 'Treas Navy' (Sheridan's arm extends across this, the place intended for him, pending a transfer to the Chancellorship of the Exchequer, Sir G.

- Abstract:
- "Eight dissenting ministers, headed by Dr. Abraham-Rees, approach the King with an address whose inscription is the only title; it continues: 'in & about the Cities of London & Westmr We your Majesty s loyal and faithful...' Rees, a bulky 'Encyclopedia' in his coat-pocket, puts one foot on a step leading to a doorway within which are visible the legs of the seated King, and his right. hand, which rests on a wall-box from which issues a paper: 'Bramah Patent Water [C]losets'. Just outside the door, holding his long wand of office, Salisbury, the Lord Chamberlain (actually Dartmouth, cf. British Museum Satires No. 10283A), stands stiffly looking over the heads of the Addressers, who are ushered in by a beef-eater on the extreme left. Rees is scarcely caricatured except for a grotesque stalk-like neck which issues absurdly from a wide coat-collar. Behind him is Theophilus Lindsey, holding his hat and a big umbrella. Most of the other six are probably portraits, but two may be generalized sectaries with lank hair. All have sour, apprehensive expressions. A quasi-Tudor window suggests St. James's Palace. A whole length portrait of Charles I is issuing from the frame, one hand held up in horror. Over the door of the inner closet are the Royal Arms."--British Museum online catalogue
