"A sequel to British Museum satire no. 8608: the two chief figures resembling the embracing couple: the Frenchman (right) holds against his person the baggy breeches of the Dutchman; coins stream from the pockets and are piled on the ground. The Dutchman (left), standing with bare thighs, scratches his head in dismay, saying, "Oh my Dollars & Ducats D------n their Citizenship; A fellow here calls me Frere Citoyen and takes away all my Property". His hat and (broken) pipe lie on the ground. On the left, and in profile to the right, a ragged Frenchman in Dutch breeches, wearing a bonnet-rouge, capers delightedly, holding to his mouth a square 'Gin' bottle. Coins pour from the breeches. He says: "They may talk of the Coldness of this Country but by Gar here is the Warm Liqour for De inside & de Warm breeches for de out side". In the foreground (right) a dwarfish Frenchman sits on a pile of sacks inscribed 'Dollars for the use of the National Convention'. He dips in his hand and stuffs coins into his coat-pocket. In the background (left) an almost naked Frenchman capers delightedly, waving a hat-full of coins, and saying: "Aye Aye, Equality is the order of the Day la Liberté for the Carmagnoles." On the extreme right a sansculotte embraces a delighted fat Dutchwoman. Three barelegged Dutchmen are behind; one says: "I dont like this Equality business I wish we had not Invited theese Plundering Fellows here, I suppose they'll make use of my Frow next." A Frenchman wearing Dutch breeches (cf. BMSat 9034) smokes a pipe in an experimental manner."

Two fashionably dressed young women dose on a sofa in a sitting room with wallpapered walls and a rug on the floor. A young man stands behind the sofa and quietly tickles the check of the young woman on the right. The friendship between the two women is illustrated by the long ribbon tied on one of each of their wrists; around their necks, each, too, wears a pendant with miniature portrait of the other. An open book between them on the sofa is titled "The Fair Seducer." An oval mirror hangs on the wall between two windows behind the young man

"The Prince stands with folded arms, in the corner of a room, gazing up at a three-quarter length portrait of Lady Jersey as a pretty young woman; she looks down at him alluringly. The portrait hangs over the chimney-piece (right), a fire burns in the grate. From his right hand dangles disregarded an oval miniature of the Princess of Brunswick. Beside the Prince, who turns his back on him, stands a grotesque German courier, who holds up a tiny pair of stockings on the feet of which are shoes. The German has moustaches, a pigtail queue reaching to the ground, he wears spurred top-boots and holds a glove; he gapes with astonishment at the portrait. On the two walls other pictures are arranged in two rows, the lower part only of the upper row being visible. These are (above): 'Pretty Millener', a reclining figure; 'Portrait of a Lady & Child', a pregnant lady leads a child; 'Mrs Crouch' (three-quarter length). Below, 'Mrs Robinson' (three-quarter length); 'Florizel & Perdita', the pair with arms entwined, the King and (?) Queen crouch behind a tree to spy on them; 'Fitsherbet' [sic], who stands, looking to the left, holding a rosary."--British Museum online catalogue
