He wears a mitre and surplice with regimentals and jackboots. He turns his head to address John Bull (right), a paunchy 'cit' who stands stolidly, his hands resting on a stout stick: "You see Johnny I dont like to Squander away your money I won't have any more Clarks I wont go to Valencienes any more Ill run nothing but real Dandies there's a Saveing for you Johnny only £10000 a year for hearing the Doctors Reports & pay all my Traveling Expences I gave Mr Johnston £8 for this Charger the Cheapest I could get theres Economy for you you'l live in Clover now."
