"A collection of antiques, real or faked, Egyptian and classical. A buxom young woman opens a hinged mummy-case (left) to embrace a handsome young officer in regimentals who stands within it. An aged man crouching down (right) glares at them through an eye-glass in frenzied malevolence.

The 'cit', excited and angry, exclaims: "What's that you say I'll be D--nd If you shall be under my Man Cook or any other man in my house."

A dinner of mostly elderly men has dissolved into a brawl with wigs flying in every direction as they pummel each other with their fists or any tool at hand. In the center a man crawls on his hands and knees, blood pouring from both nostrils, his opponent ready to land him another blow. The one young man of the party dances merrily on top of the table flourishing a bowl in one hand and a spoon in the other as the dinnerware scatters in every direction.

"A scene in a College cloister, indicated by a wall and Gothic vaulting. A pretty and buxom girl carrying milk-pails suspended from a yoke is embraced by a young man in cap, gown, and bands who leans towards her through a casement window. She disregards her milk-pails; one, containing two infants, tilts upwards, the other, full of milk, correspondingly descends and a spaniel greedily laps the milk. On the extreme left a lean elderly parson, hideous and grotesque, similarly dressed, watches intently."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

"A pretty young woman swings high above the heads of the spectators, seated on a rope hung between two tall trees. A similar girl, and a young man who embraces her, pull at a rope which works the swing. An elderly parson of Syntax type (see British Museum Satires no. 11507, &c.), smoking and drinking on a bench, looks up delightedly at the girl's legs. Another, fat and humpbacked, flirts with a fat elderly woman. Three elderly farmers rush from the right to watch the display of legs, one waving a pipe and punch-bowl. A fat woman tugs angrily at the pigtail of one of them, kicking him behind; an elderly virago threatens them with her fist."--British Museum online catalogue.
