In the second row: "In love I perceive", "Prick'd to the heart. She's gone, she's gone!", "Met to part no more", "O! Thou false wretch", "O, Sophia fairest of women", "How you teaze me Charles" and "I'll seek revenge", and a pair of designs labeled above "The effects of jealousy" and on the left "Now for the fatal blow" and "Keep your distance fellow."

Beside him is another ram (Shaw), completely shorn and dejected; it says: Pshaw I can never Stand upright in the presence of a great Mon but always Keep Booing, booing [cf.
