Two Native Americans attack a group of American loyalists. One of the loyalists lies dead on the ground, another, fallen on his back, is about to be slaughtered by the Indian saying "Shelbu-n for ever." The second Indian, with a feathered headdress, pulls a loyalist by the tails of his coat saying "No-th [North] to the devil." Lord Shelburne (William Petty) looks on, smiling, in spite of being attacked by Britannia who aims her spear at his heart and says, "Inhuman smiling Hypocrite thus to disgrace my unsullied fame." He responds, "be not angry Madam no peace no place." A butcher standing behind Shelburne and with inscription above his head, "Even Butchers weep," wipes tears from his face with a large handkerchief. One of the loyalists expresses the popular sentiment that the British government sacrificed them through peace terms: "Ungrateful Britons to Abandon thus your Loyal friends."

George III sharing a cannibal feast with an Indian chief. Under a palm-tree (left) are three American Indians; one, standing, holds the dismembered body of an infant, so that its blood pours into a cup formed of a skull held by a kneeling Indian (left). The third (right), whose feathers and bracelets show that he is a chief, sits on the ground holding a tomahawk in one hand, a long bone which he is gnawing in the other. On his left, and in the centre of the design, sits George III on the ground, gnawing the other end of the Indian's bone, while he holds a smoking bowl made of a skull. He is wearing the ribbon and star of the Garter. On the ground in front are the head and limbs of an infant, and a dog vomiting. On the king's left is a flag-staff, surmounted by a cross, from it hangs a ragged flag on which is inscribed "GEO . . . E the T[hird] by the Grace of. . . . of. . . . King [Def]ender of the Faith &c.” Beneath it, a 'Holy Bible' stands upside down. Two figures hasten towards the feast from the right. A very fat bishop wearing a mitre holds in his right hand a crozier, in the left a paper inscribed “Form of Prayer 4th Febry General Fast.” He is saying “That thy Ways may be known upon Earth, thy saving Health among all Nations.” Behind him is a sailor carrying on his head a packing-case inscribed “Scalping Knives, Crucifixes, Tomahawks, Presents to Indians 96,000”; he says, “D------n my dear Eyes, but we are hellish good Christians.” Beneath the design is engraved, “Qui facit per alium, facit per se. Princ. Leg. Ang.” In the upper right corner of the print is engraved on a scroll, “The Party of Savages [The original here adds “under Le Mote”] went out with Orders not to spare Man, Woman, or Child. To this cruel Mandate even some of the Savages made an Objection, respecting the butchering the Women & Children; but they were told the Children would make Soldiers, & the Women would keep up the Stock.
