Behind (right) is a post-chaise and horse; a postilion stands by, watching the ceremony. In the background (left) is a shed where a horse is being shoed. It is placarded: 'Tim Tag Blacksmith and Rector'."--British Museum online catalogue

"A strapping young courtesan holds against her neck a ladder up which an elderly naval officer, less than half her height, begins to climb, looking up avidly. He holds a telescope, and wears a ribbon inscribed 'Death or Victory'. From her feathered hat streams a ribbon inscribed 'England expects every Man To do his Duty.' She wears a belt inscribed 'Belly Rough One' [Bellerophon] above the figure '74'. The scene is the quay-side between large cannon. A ship's boat rows out to a man-of-war at anchor."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

In a rustic bedroom, a pretty, buxom young woman kneels before an open chest in which is hidden a handsome young soldier. As she holds open the lid of the trunk the two kiss, unaware that an ugly old man glares at them through a open, casement window and unaware that she has upset the full chamber pot at her feet. Beside the trunk are a hat filled with fruit, a bottle of eau de vie, and a mouse in a trap

"A street scene. A stout ugly man on the extreme left turns to look through an eye-glass at a woman with a lean and grotesque profile. She wears a straw bonnet and is blown by the wind, her dress defining her figure, her hands in a large muff. Two men (right) walking hurriedly to the left are much caricatured; one rejects the outstretched hat of a ragged female crossing-sweeper. On the extreme right an ugly military officer puts his arm round a handsome courtesan. The windows of a corner-shop form a background: 'Chevalier Stinkpot Perfumer in General to the Court of St James's'.

"A crowd of elderly Fellows in cap and gown issue from the Gothic doorway of the (?) chapel (left) and turn to the left, to walk in back view under an archway below a mullioned window, towards a quadrangle which is indicated only by the windows of the (?) hall. One enters the Principal's Lodge by a Georgian door (right) facing that of the chapel. He is closely followed by a buxom girl with baskets of fruit, exciting the prurient interest of some of the Fellows. Others buy fruit from another pretty girl. All are burlesqued. The architecture is realistically drawn. On the wall of the Lodge are two placards, one upside down, inscribed 'Vice . . .' and 'Vice Chanr'.

"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

"A scaly dragon breathing smoke advances furiously towards a composed clergyman in cassock and bands (right).

The arm is inscribed 'Marsh', 'Clergy', 'Monarchist'. The dragon's tongue is 'Falsehood', the talons with which he paws at his enemy are inscribed 'Hypocrisy', 'Vanity', 'Misrepresentation', 'Calumny'. Behind it is the fragment of a ruined building inscribed 'Lancaster's School'; on the wall is poised a large Quaker's hat inscribed 'Broad Brim' nearly covering the words 'Madras System'.
