"Queen Caroline, stout and raddled, with black ringlets, stands full-face and four-square, bending forward as if bowing, with a fixed stare from black beady eyes. She wears the feathered hat (caricatured) of the 'trial', and a fur-bordered pelisse. Under her right arm is a rolled document, 'List of [Addres]ses'; in her left hand she awkwardly raises her skirts in order to bow. She stands on a grass plot in front of Brandenburgh House. Below the design: ... 'Lo! yonder she walketh in maiden sweetness, with innocence on her mind and modesty in her cheek. Her hand seeketh employment; her foot delighteth not in gadding abroad. She is cloathed with neatness; she is fed with temperance; humility and meekness are as a crown of glory circling her head. Her breast is the mansion of goodness; and therefere [sic] she suspecteth no evil in others. Decency is in all her words; in her answers are mildness and truth. Submission and obedience are the lessons of her life; and peace and happiness are her rewards. Before her steps walketh Prudence; and Virtue attendeth at her right hand. Her eye speaketh softness and love; but discretion with a sceptre sitteth on her brow. The tongue of the licentious is dumb in her presence; the awe of her virtue keepeth him silent. Happy Bartolomeo [Bergami]!!! he putteth his heart in her bosom, and receiveth Comfort. Thus the prudence of her management is an honor to her husband, and he must hear her praise with silent delight.!!!'"--British Museum online catalogue, description of a variant state
