Abstract:
"A crowd watches three country girls who race (left to right) barefoot and lightly clad; a dog has tripped up a fourth. A dog runs too, with some object tied to its tail. Many of the crowd are in violent action, fighting or falling. Spectators watch from a wagon into which a very fat woman is being hoisted. Others fall from a bench (right), near which are a man on stilts with a fiddle on his back, and another blowing a coach-horn. A horse driven by a would-be fashionable in a gig plunges into the crowd, and the driver is fiercely assailed by two mounted men. In the background, on a ridge, are a few small tents with banners and spectators, indicating a village fair. Farther off (right) is a church with a double spire."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Three sailors ride away from the sea-shore (right) where a man-of-war is at anchor. All are in difficulties. A fourth is on his hands and knees on the extreme left; he looks up to say: "Mind what you are at Messmates for I am upset, and the frigate I came on board of--has been under weigh, without me this half hour." The foremost, clasping his rearing horse round the neck, looks back to say: "Keep more to the Star-board and be D--d, to you--dont you see how you make my vessel, run a head." The next man is tied to his galloping mount with heavy ropes; and he says: "Here I come my Hearty's --Right and tight,--smart sailing, but never mind that--I cant be cast away for my commander, Heavens bless him has lash'd me to the deck, with some tough Old Cables!" The last sailor's horse kicks with tail erect; he exclaims: "D--n me--how she heaves. Why this is worse than a Jolly Boat, in the Bay of Biscay. and what a D--d noise she makes in her poop--Signals for sailing I suppose"."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"Scene in the vaulted ante-room of a dungeon. The turnkey, keys in hand, accepts with wary enjoyment the blandishments of a pretty young woman, whose interest is clearly in the fate of a handsome youth seen through the bars above a padlocked barrier on the right. A grotesquely obese and misshapen man (right) approaches the turnkey with a jug and frothing glass. Behind the latter (left) is a table with a shoulder of mutton and a small cask. A cat plays amicably with a dog. Heavy fetters hang from the walls, and there is a heavily barred door; a vaulted recess leads to a second dungeon. The place is lit by hanging lamps."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"Below the title: " To pack up her tatters and follow the Drum. Soldiers and their wives walk in single file across a stream under trees. All except for the only officer are good-looking. The procession moves irregularly from right to left, receding in perspective. In the stream (left) are two soldiers carrying their wives on their shoulders; the second carries also kettle, frying-pan, and saucepan slung from his musket; the woman has two infants tied to her shoulders. They are followed by a young woman carrying three children on her back, her petticoats raised almost to the waist. On the brink of the stream (right) is a drummer bent under a big drum and with a sword under his arm. A soldier follows, heavily burdened with musket, knapsack, inscribed Old Buffs, rolled cloak, bottle, &c., and a pouch from which hangs the head of a goose. He looks behind him at a buxom woman carrying two lusty children, and with petticoats kilted high above bare legs and tattered shoes. Last walks a woman carrying on her shoulders an ugly officer wearing plumed bicorne and gorget. The soldiers wear plumed shakos and long gaiters."--British Museum online catalogue
