"Sheridan, a candle in each hand, shambles before the royal party, ushering them through the theatre and looking over his shoulder with an expression of exasperated anxiety. The King, in back view, turns to the Queen, saying, "I like the Author very much - took him for a Jacobin - no such thing - quite a different man - brim full of loyalty - I'll certainly come again!!" Behind the pair Salisbury, the Lord Chamberlain, walks stiffly, holding his staff and wearing his gold key. He is followed by one of the Princesses (Augusta Sophia), walking with the Prince of Orange, whose portly contour and sulky profile with closed eye appear on the extreme left. Through the door (probably that from the box lobby) Fox is seen holding a constable's staff and saying to the crowd, anxious to see the arrival: "Stand away there, don't stop up the passage you pack of Jacobin Rascals"."--British Museum online catalogue
