- "The Prince of Wales stands outside the gate of Carlton House, turning away and covering his eyes to avoid seeing the scaffolding which is being pulled down by Pitt, Richmond, and Dundas, who strain at ropes. A long cloak hangs from his shoulders and he holds a coronet decorated with three feathers. Thurlow with a broom and Dundas with a whip chase away a terrified crowd of artisans (left) who have been employed at Carlton House. Beside the Prince stand his friends, who look towards a rising sun appearing over the roof of Carlton House; m the disk stands Liberty, beckoning to them. Fox holds out a roll inscribed 'Magna Chart[a]'; Burke stands with his hand on North's shoulder; Sheridan holds the 'Bill of Rights'."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "The Prince stands outside the gate of Carlton House as in BMSat 7167, but receives in a lordly manner two purses from two obsequiously bowing Treasury Secretaries (Rose and Steele). He is dressed as in BMSat 7167, but wears his coronet. Pitt, Sydney, and Dundas kneel in a grovelling manner behind the Prince, whose posteriors Pitt is about to kiss. Fox, North, Burke, and Sheridan stand behind, with gestures and expressions of pleased surprise. A tiny figure, the Duke of Richmond, is at work with a trowel on the replaced scaffolding (right), while Thurlow mounts a ladder carrying a hod. On the left a crowd of workmen wave their hats and tools in delight. In the foreground (left) sits a one-legged and one-armed sailor clasping a purse."--British Museum online catalogue
