"In the foreground John Bull, a drink-blotched 'cit', and George IV tug at a large pair of antlers. The King (right): "I tell you Bull I will wear them--I know they will become me--what am I allways to be disappointed." John wears a large white favour in his hat inscribed 'The Queen'; he says: "I'll be D--n'd if you do wear them yet, however much you may deserve them so it is useless contending G--e." At his feet is a large bludgeon: 'John Bull's Oke'. Behind them, a woman, apparently Mrs. Bull, strikes Majocchi, so that his nose gushes blood, saying: "You're one of the Villians from Cotton Garden" [see British Museum Satires No. 13824, &c.]. He falls backwards, saying: "Non mi Ricordo" [see British Museum Satires No. 13827]. In the middle distance behind John (left), stands a woman arm-in-arm with a sailor, who is next a soldier; she waves her handkerchief, saying; "The Queen for ever"; the other two wave their hats, shouting: "Go it John we'll stand by You." Behind the King (right) stand four witnesses: three villainous-looking fops and a woman; they are 'Inhabitants of Cotton Garden'."--British Museum online catalogue

"Heading to engraved verses: 'Sung with Unbounded Applause by Mr Miller, at the royal Circus'. A handsome young sailor, wearing long trousers and a striped jersey, stands full face, cudgel under the r. holding up his hat. He is framed in trees; behind is the river, with boats and wherries, and, across the water, the river-front of Greenwich Hospital.

The verses end: 'I've run many risks on ocean and on shore, But always like a Briton, got the day, And fighting in old England's cause, will run as many more But let me face ten thousand foes, will never run away.'"--British Museum online catalogue
