- Abstract:
- The Duke of Wellington flys in a cloudy sky on a large quill pen, holding a pair of reins which are attached to the tip of the pen. From the tip hangs a scroll which reads "Bill for the relief of Roman Catholics." The point of the pen strikes George IV's eye; he stands in profile on the far right and exclaims "Oh, my eye the fellow has blinded me." Wellington looks over his shoulder at a bird with the head of Grey who flies after him from the left, beneath the pen's feather. Grey calls, "I say you Old Soldier you have stole one of my feathers! Hollo'a stop thief."

- Abstract:
- "The King, plainly dressed in black, tries to hide, ostrich-like, from the two Sheriffs of London, who kneel before him, holding their wands of office. The foremost, on both knees, his hand on his heart, says: We are deputed by the Corporation to wait upon your M----ty most humbly to know when it will be convenient to receive the dutiful address of your M----tys ancient and loyal City of London. The second sheriff, less obsequious, says: The Citizens are suprised at yr M----tys Backwardness, the Corporation looks blue, and the Lord Mayor is in a Brown Study. The King, poised on his toes, stoops over the throne, a plain arm-chair, as if to take cover, looking behind him from the corners of his averted eyes. He says: I'm not at home. An elderly Lord Chamberlain, also in black, leans forward on tiptoe, supporting himself on the back of the throne, one arm held out above the King's bent back with a gesture of negation to the Sheriffs and protection to the King, saying, He say's "he's not at home! The title is centred by two heraldic turtles and the City's motto: Domini Direge Nos [sic].."--British Museum online catalogue
