"A stout man in regimentals holds a greyhound on a leash; he looks with a sly smile towards a yokel (l.) who points to the left., as if to show the whereabouts of a hare. The officer slyly indicates with a forefinger two horses whose heads only appear on the extreme right. of the design. He has a curiously concave profile with a long chin. He wears (awry) a cocked hat with a damaged brim, and heavy jack-boots of Hessian type. The scene is open moorland."--British Museum online catalogue.

"Three handsome young men, stooping slightly, walk languidly arm-in-arm along a pavement in profile to the left. They have a strong family resemblance, with variations in profile and in the size of their whiskers. They are dressed alike, except for differently curving hat-brims, in tail-coats with sleeves gathered at the shoulder, but without the clumsy bulk of the Jean-de-Bry, cf. BMSat 9425, stocks resembling those worn by Skeffington, see BMSat 9557, but less extravagantly swathed, frilled shirts, double-breasted outer waitcoats, riding-breeches, and boots with deep tops. Their long powdered hair is tied, and their coats are thickly frosted with powder, cf. BMSat 8190. They do not carry canes."--British Museum online catalogue.

"A tall young man rides a prancing horse in profile to the right. He wears a round hat, Jean-de-Bry coat (see BMSat 9425) with flying coat-tails over two waistcoats, the outer one being double-breasted. Long pantaloons and flat pumps complete a costume very unsuitable for riding. He holds the curb-rein negligently; the snaffle lies on the horse's neck. Above the design: '------the right heel assiduously aside Provokes the Caper, which he seems to hide.'"--British Museum online catalogue.

"Five Germans seated at a round table, gormandize savagely on cabbage and sausages. Three are grossly fat and coarse-featured and plebeian; one of these (r.) has tucked the table-cloth round his neck (cf. BMSat 8145). A lean military officer sits in back view plying spoon and fork with elbows raised; a lean dog laps from his plate, one paw on his knee the other on the table. Cocked hat and sword are on the ground beside him. A thin and elderly man of more polished appearance puts down his head to the mound of greenery on his plate, which he shovels up with spoon and fork; his knife lies on the table-cloth. His hat and gold-headed cane are under his stool. A fat cook enters (l.) carrying a large steaming dish piled high with sauerkraut and sausages. On the table are a 'Vinegar' bottle and fragments from over-full plates. On the wall are a map of 'The Mouths of the Rhine', showing the 'German Ocean'; an oval bust portrait of 'Arch-Duke Charles' [see BMSat 8835], with a gross profile resembling that given by Gillray to the Duke of Clarence; a picture of a row of pigs whose heads emerge from sties to feed in a trough. On the floor are large tankards, a broken pipe, a pile of used plates which a cat is licking, a 'Bill of Fare - 1st Course Sour Krout - 2d Course Sour Krout - 3d Course Sour Krout - Desert Sour Krout.' Tankards and plates are inscribed 'Weyler Castle Street.'"--British Museum online catalogue.
