- "The royal party on board a vessel which, though the sail is inscribed 'Southampton Frigate', resembles a fishing-vessel. They are seated in the stern in the worst throes of sea-sickness: the King (centre), his hat tied on with a handkerchief, clasps his stomach. One of the princesses, holding a smelling-bottle, supports the Queen. The helmsman is impeded by a fat lady who drinks from a bottle. A princess (left) droops despairingly, another (right) appeals to Heaven for mercy. A sailor (left) carries off a bucket, holding his nose. Below the deck appear the heads of two beef-eaters, vomiting."--British Museum online catalogue.

A huge wig decked with feathers and roses is being placed by a maid on the bald head of the elder lady, who stands holding a bouquet and looking in a mirror which reflects a delighted grin.

The girl is seated; a friseur dresses her long hair; a man-milliner, 'chapeau-bras', prepares to adjust a 'derrière'; she touches approvingly the dress which an ugly old woman wearing a hat holds out to her. On the floor is a round box containing roses."--British Museum online catalogue.

- Abstract:
- "Fox rises from a close-stool; Sheridan (left) is about to apply a syringe, inscribed 'R------ts [Regent's] Clyster', to his rectum. Burke (right), wearing a Jesuit's biretta (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6026), gropes in the close-stool, holding in his left hand its lid, inscribed 'Not searching from Precedents but Consequences' (a characteristic dictum); he says, "To Ordure - Ordure" (Burke was often called to order for his speeches on the Regency, cf. British Museum Satires No. 7499, &c). Fox says, "Exegi Monumentum cere perennias, or the finishing Stroke" (perhaps an allusion to the revolution Pillar, see British Museum Satires No. 7396). In his hand is a paper inscribed 'Magna Charta Non Posteris sed Posterioribus'; his posterior is inscribed 'Patriotic Bum' and 'Vox Populi'. He stands on a paper inscribed 'Resolutions of P------l------t.' Sheridan is 'Principal Promoter of loose Principles'; under his right foot is an open book: 'Congreve Plays School for Scandal', probably implying plagiarism by Sheridan (cf. Moore, 'Life of Sheridan', p. 180, where resemblances between 'The School for Scandal' and 'The Double Dealer' are noted). The background is a library wall: a book-case containing folio volumes in some disorder is flanked by scowling busts of 'Wat Tyler' and 'Jack Kade'. The books are inscribed: 'The Laws of Pharaoh' (Faro, cf. British Museum Satires No. 5972), 'Political Prints', 'Life of Oliver Cromwell' (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6380, &c), 'Cataline' (cf. British Museum Satires No. 6784), 'Memoirs of Sam House'."--British Museum online catalogue.

- Abstract:
- "The six Commissioners from Ireland seated on bulls, facing and clutching the tails of the animals (as in Gillray's 'Paddy', BMSat 5605), gallop towards the façade of Carlton House, where the Prince of Wales (left) and the Duke of York (right) look from behind pillars at the embarrassing deputation. Their leader, Leinster (left), holds a long document, saying, "Aye Aye the M------ of B------k------m will remember me when I go back". The others say (left to right), "By Jasus the folks stare at us as they do at Wild beastises"; "Lord what a nice Errand is this make him Regent whether or no"; "I say my Friend C------n-----y [Connolly] we shall be there the Day before the Fair"; "Well? Yes I dare say well why he was so bad he could say nothing but What, What, What, when we left Dublin" (it was noted (8 Feb.) as a sign of the King's recovery that he had resumed his habitual 'What, what', a phrase never used during his illness, F. Greville, 'Diaries', p. 213); "What no occasion for a R--g--t then by Jasus we will go back again and tell the Lads we are all mad & by the Lord 'tis my opinion we are come over for nothing at all at all." The bulls are being urged on by two men in court-suits with long rat's tails to show that they are 'rats'. They are (left) 'D . . . Q------', the Duke of Queensberry, and (right) 'M------s L------', Marquis of Lothian. From an upper window on the extreme right, inscribed 'Pall Mall Ordinary', Weltje (cf. BMSat 7509) looks down at the scene, saying, "Begar I must go prepare more Sourcrout for dese Wild Bullocks."--British Museum online catalogue.

The procession is preceded on the extreme right by Hall the apothecary, one of Fox's chief supporters in Westminster, who holds the abortive 'Regency Bill'. A medical instrument protrudes from his coat-pocket; he is 'Apozem, Clerk, & Apothecary'. ... After him in priest's robes and wearing a Jesuit's biretta walks Burke, 'Ignatius Loyola' (cf. BMSat 6026), holding an 'Ode upon his Majesty Recovery'. ... The coffin is carried on the shoulders of six men with bulls' heads, hoofs, and tails, wearing coronets and shedding tears; three only are depicted, though the hoofs of the three on the left side of the coffin are indicated; it is 'The Body of the deceased supported by six Irish Bulls'. They wear a duke's, an earl's, and a baron's coronet, and say: "[1] Pullalaloo - Pullalalo - oh.', [2] Oh! - Ogh! - Oh!; [3] Oh Pullalalo - ogh". On the coffin is a coronet with the Prince's feathers flanked by an empty purse and dice and dice-box. Four ragged little girls holding nosegays walk as pall-bearers, two before the coffin and two behind it. They are '(bis) Unfledg'd Noviciates of Sf Giles's or, Charley's delight'. ... They are followed by Mrs. Fitzherbert in long trailing weeds, a rosary and crucifix hanging from her waist. She is 'Chief Mourner - The Princess of W-----s'. ... She clasps her hands despairingly. ... She is followed by Sheridan and Fox, wearing cloaks and carrying hats with mourning-scarves; they are: 'Second Mourners', 'The Rival Jacobites'. ... The next couple are Weltje and a hairdresser, Mails. ... The procession is followed by a nude and very emaciated demon (left), playing the fiddle and capering as he sings, grinning. He is the 'Blue and Buff Train Bearer.' ..."--British Museum online catalogue.
