She holds a lighted lantern and clutches a bottle of cordial and a bundle. She wears a hooded cloak, a flat straw hat over a white cap, and pattens.

Behind her (left) is an aged watchman, leaning with folded arms on the front of his watch-box, asleep.

- Abstract:
- "The King is on the throne (right), with five advisers seated at a round table at the base of the dais; all are thrown into confusion by the arrival of a top-booted messenger (left) who rushes into the room, hair on end, yelling, "The Queen's Arrived!!!" The terrified King screams: "The Devil!!!!" His wig stands on end and his crown falls off; a bottle of 'Curacoa' is upset. The Ministers are engaged on 'Plans for Divorce', a paper so inscribed is on the table; all register terror. The Archbishop of Canterbury says "The Lord have mercy on our vicked Souls," the pious Liverpool says "Amen." All are broadly burlesqued, with goggling eyes and large heads in the manner of Woodward's 'Long Heads' or 'Lilliputians' (cf. British Museum satires nos. 10604, 10889).
