"A soldier, apparently on sentry duty on a castle rampart, embraces a pretty young woman, holding his cloak round her. He has whiskers and a moustache and wears a busby with aigrette and bag, indicating an hussar regiment. He wears a sword but his bayonetted musket leans against the wall behind him. The girl wears a curiously shaped cap, with two tails hanging down her back. An officer walking past stops to stare and snigger; behind him is a cannon in an embrasure. In the foreground (left) is a pile of cannon-balls."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A parson, just arrived at an inn, a grosser Dr. Syntax (see British Museum Satires No. 11507), makes advances to a comely and willing chambermaid, who holds warming-pan, lighted candle, and saddle-bags, and is conducting him to his room. They are at the foot of the staircase. A young military officer on the stairs tipsily directs a stream towards the parson's hat. On the wall behind the latter: 'Fountain Inn-Entertainment for Man and Horse Gentlemen supplied with Fishing Tackle &c &c'. Behind his back (right) an elderly man in a night-shirt looks angrily from a room, holding a lighted candle. In the foreground (right) is a clutter of chamber-pots, bucket, mop, boot-jack, &c."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Two women (right), one old and ugly, the other young and pretty, walk arm-in-arm, turning their backs on the river but looking over their shoulders at naked young men, three on the bank, one in the water. The old woman, with an expression of prurient anger, screams: "Oh shame on the Nasty fellows do Sophia tell me when we are past them." The younger is frankly interested. Both hold the small flattened parasols of the period. A dog walks with them. Trees (right) and the wide river (left) form a background; on the water is a boat in which (tiny) women hold up parasols ostensibly as screens, but peep round them."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"An ugly decrepit old doctor, in old-fashioned dress and wig, stands with his back to the fire (right) receiving a pair of country-bumpkins, shown in by a servant out of livery, who stands at the door (left), grinning delightedly. The man, a burly fellow, is followed by his plainly-dressed and anxious wife. He says: "Do you see Doctor my Dame and I become [sic] to ax your advice--we both of us eat well, and drink well, and sleep well--yet still we be somehow queerish". The doctor, holding his cane to his nose, answers: "You eat well--you drink well and you sleep well--very good-- You was perfectly right in coming to me, for depend upon it I will give you something that shall do away all these things". On the chimney-piece are jars and bottles with a bust of 'Galen', Against the wall is a heavy book-case with glass doors containing large volumes."--British Museum online catalogue
