- Abstract:
- A copy of the second print in William Hogarth's series "Four Times of the Day": Set outside St Giles's-in-the-Fields. On the right an elegant crowd leaves the French Huguenot church; they are dressed in the height of French fashion. Two women kiss on the far right in the customary French way. They are contrasted with Londoners on the left. The two groups are separated by a gutter down the middle of the road; a dead cat lies in the gutter foreground. The Londoners stand outside a tavern with the sign of the Good Woman (one without a head); a woman and man in the second-storey window look surprised as the contents of her bowl are tossed out the window. In the foreground, left, under a sign with John the Baptist's head on a platter and reading "Good Eating", a black man embraces a servant girl and a small boy (evidently intended by his curly red hair to be identified as one of the Irish inhabitants of the area) cries because he has broken a pie-dish. A little girl squats as she eats the fallen pie off the ground. The clock in the steeple in the background reads 12:30.

- Abstract:
- Print shows on the left, a statue of Justice in a niche beneath which a candidate, doffing his hat, offers a purse of money to a voter who replies, "Twill scarce pay, make it twenty more", beside them a gentleman points to the statue saying "Regard Justice" to another carrying a bundle on his shoulder who replies, "We fell out, I lost money by her". In the centre, in front of a large crowd are two candidates, both waving their hats, slip coins into two of the many pockets of a voter's coat; one candidate says, "Sell not your Country" and the voter replies, "No Bribery but Pocketts are free". Further to the right another candidate, saying "Accept this small acknowledgment", offers a purse to a gentleman who grovels on the ground for coins that have been thrown down by the prevailing candidate, from his position on a chair supported by poles on the shoulders of four men. On the right, a statue of Folly in a niche empties bags of coins; before the statue is an altar on which a fire burns, a candidate kneels at its base imploring, "Help me Folly or my Cause is lost"; to the left of the altar, is a butcher crying "See here, see here" and to the right, a classical philosopher, saying "Let not thy right hand know what thy left does", puts his hand behind him to received a bribe from a young man. Beyond is a tavern outside the landlord, wearing horns, calls out "He kist my Wife he has my Vote"; outside the tavern hangs the sign of a bottle with a large globe attached
