Abstract:
"An aged and moribund woman (T.Q.L.) sits in an arm-chair directed to the left. A doctor, stout, middle-aged, and sensual, holds her wrist, while putting his arm round a buxom young woman who leans on the back of the chair. They gaze into each other's eyes. On the table at the old woman's elbow are medicine phials, a bowl of 'Composing Draught', and a pill-box inscribed 'Opium'. The doctor has a gold-headed cane inscribed 'Medical Staff'."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"A scene on Clerkenwell Green, outside the 'Sessions House Crerenwell' [sic], whose door is on the extreme left. Two termagants face each other in the foreground; one spits at her enemy, arms akimbo, the other tries to use her fists but is held back by an elderly man who grasps her round the waist and kicks her, losing his tie-wig. The former woman is fashionably, the latter roughly, dressed. Both have coarse faces with a certain comeliness. In the background constables with staves are shepherding women through the door of the Sessions House, where the Middlesex magistrates sat. Other constables and women are suggested behind the 'Spit Fires'. On the right are old-fashioned gabled houses."--British Museum online catalogue

"A man and woman sleep in a rough wooden bed, heads thrown back so that their nostrils face the spectator. Bare feet projecting from the bed-clothes attract a rat. A cat lies on a chair in the disordered room. An antique musket and broadsword hang horizontally above the bed, on a wall from which much plaster has fallen. A makeshift curtain hangs across a casement window (left). On a chair by the bed (right) is a punch-bowl. On the wall is a placard: 'Hush every Breese let nothing move My Celia sleeps and dreams of Love'."--British Museum online catalogue

"Villagers play quoits outside a gabled, thatched, and dilapidated inn, the sign: 'Asses Milk sold here' and 'Dirty Dick'. The quoits lie round a peg in the right foreground watched by a bull-dog. One man is about to throw. There is norie of the rustic prosperity and gaiety of other plates in the series. The players are in their working-clothes, some with aprons. A fat butcher drains a tankard (right) spilling its contents, and watched with anger by a lean man. A grossly fat woman with a donkey flirts shamelessly with two men, one a crippled beggar, while the animal eats from the fruit in a pannier on its back. A half-naked termagant leans over a paling to beat a bystander with her broom; behind her is a notice: 'Washing and mangling done here'. A woman carrying an infant angrily tries to drag away an absorbed spectator. In the background villagers drink and embrace, and a thin man rides a kicking donkey. A view of the grosser side of rural life, with the suggestion that these are the village wastrels."--British Museum online catalogue

"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 hand-coloured print of a steep hill in Greenwich Park on which people are running up and down. Large and thin couples chase one another, kiss and cavort, sometimes with disastrous outcomes, including a couple of women who have collided, their bottoms exposed. At the top of the hill stands a tree under which two men are seated. At the bottom left, a man hides behind a tree, ready to strike an un-suspecting woman with a stick."--Royal Collection Trust online catalogue
