"Cripples and invalids rush down a hill below houses apparently representing The Crescent, and inscribed 'Cripples Corner'. The road traverses a rough grass slope to the river, beyond which are the houses of Bath (right). In the foreground an aged cripple has fallen headlong, losing hat, wig, and one crutch. Two old men, one in regimentals, hobble frantically on crutches, followed by a fat 'cit' also using crutches. In the middle distance, and lower down, three gouty old men are being trundled wheelbarrow-fashion in bath-chairs. Young women cheer on the competitors, one flourishing a riding-switch. In the background (left) at the top of the hill are other cripples."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

An embryo 'Great Wheel' is in action on the right, with four cars (or boxes with half doors) slung from cross-beams which pivet on a post, the motion being given by a crank at the hub, worked by a man standing on a little platform. Each car contains one elderly occupant, except one which has broken: a young girl falls through the air, a youth lies on his back below her. Spectators register alarm or amusement.

"In a sordid room four women begin the day by dram-drinking. An ugly elderly woman sits up in a half-tester bed; a pretty young one, naked except for a cloak, night-cap, and slippers, crouches in a chair over a few sticks burning on a flat hearth; another supports herself by leaning across a table. All look towards the fourth who wears a hat and cloak, and approaches from the right with a bottle and glass. The objects in the room denote squalor. An open book on the ground is 'The Chapter of Accidents' [a popular comedy by Sophia Lee, 1780]; a dog has a collar inscribed 'Romeo'; an empty tankard on the floor is inscribed 'Drury Lane'. On the wall is a placard headed 'For the Benefit of the Theatrical Fund' [the Drury Lane Theatrical Fund (still in existence) was founded in 1776]. Other prints on the wall: 'Dirty Peg & the Duke' [two heads kissing, one probably the Duke of York]; 'Bald as a Coote' [the profile head of a disconsolate man, probably General Sir Eyre Coote (1762-1823) who besieged Flushing in 1809, see British Museum Satires No. 11364, &c.]; 'Little Darby O' [a recognizable caricature head of Lord Derby, who married the actress Eliza Farren, see British Museum Satires No. 9074, &c]; 'Ever Craving' [a caricature profile, probably of Lord Craven (1770-1825), who married the actress Louisa Brunton in 1807]; 'Old Q' [a similar profile of Queensberry]. On the projection that forms a chimney-piece is a jug inscribed 'Alamode Beef Jug', a melon inscribed 'Rotten Ripe' [probably indicating Harriot Mellon], and a bust presumably of Whitefield inscribed 'Doctor Squintum' [from Foote's 'Minor']; over his head are the words 'Bang up to the Mark' [cf.

A hammock stretches across the upper part of the design; from it a sailor looks down grinning at a buxom young woman who is being 'rigged out' by a sailor seated on a tea-chest. She wears chemise and petticoat, inscribed 'Gum Elastic', with two huge pockets inscribed 'Japan Old China' and 'Tea', a cask of 'coniac' and a canister are tied to her waist, and a bottle of 'Otto or [sic] Roses' is between her breasts. Her hat and gown hang from a nail (right). She puts her hand amorously on the smiling sailor's head. Another sailor sits behind him, smoking and drinking. There are chests of 'Souchon' and 'Congo' tea, and bottles of 'arrack'. A fiddle hangs from the wall."--British Museum online catalogue.

"The guests sit at a long narrow table which stretches across a magnificent room with an ornate ceiling and chimney-piece flanked by draped canopies resembling high curtained beds with domed testers. Two men and a pretty young woman serve wine, one drawing a cork, the others spilling wine over the guests. Another slatternly waiter removes a soup-tureen, spilling its contents in the face of an elderly guest. A woman and a little girl with a begging dog play tambourine and triangle. The women diners are in full dress, decolletee and with feathers in their hair; some of the men wear bag-wigs. There are two monks, and some ill-bred gormandizing is going on. In the foreground is a large cluster of bottles inscribed 'Frotignac [sic]', 'Claret', 'Burgundy', 'Bla . .', 'Ro . . Vin de Paris'. The figures are caricatured, except for the young women. The scene is a combination of pomp with confused disorder, and of noisy joviality with self-centred gormandizing."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

"Large clusters of straw bonnets and hats hang from the ceiling of a room which is both show-room and work-room. A pretty shop-girl with a hat in each hand smiles at a lean ugly woman who wears a similar but ill-fitting hat, and whose complacent profile is reflected in a wall-mirror (left). A child with a rattle looks up at her. She (or he) wears frilled drawers to the ankle. A fat woman wearing a bonnet sits looking up admiringly. A cat sits on a chair. Behind, six pretty girls are seated at a table making bonnets. An ugly elderly man peers in through the window, using an eye-glass. On the wall is a large placard: 'Mrs Flimsy's Fashionable Warehouse The greatest Variety of Straw Hats & Bonnets made up in the most Elegant Taste. A large stock of Spanish Flemish Provincial Gipsey Cottage Woodland &c &c Adapted to shew every Feature to the best Advantage'. Below the title: 'Misery A La Mode. The being overpersuaded by a canting Shopwoman, in endeavouring to put off a stale Article--that it is the most becoming and suitable to your stile of Features--but on consulting your friends and acquaintance they pronounce it the most frightful hideous and unfashionable thing that woud disgrace Cranbourn Alley'."--British Museum online catalogue.
