Abstract:
"Three men sit at a table absorbed in an oyster feast, while Richard Martin (M----n), sensing cruelty to oysters, enters, followed by a constable with his staff (left). Papers hang from his pocket: M . . . . s Bill to prevent Cruelty to Animals, and a book projects: Gullivers Travels--A Voyage to . . . Ho[uyhnhnms]. Martin points imperiously to the table, the constable makes a wry face. A lean elderly man (Dr K----r) sits with his back to the door on a piano-stool on which are sheets of music. At his feet is a paper: The Oyster crossed in Love as sung by Messs Sinclair & Gamon at Covent Garden O gentle Swain yr Knife [refrain] Nor Wound a Heart so soft as mine. Dr E----y, wearing tartan, stands over a tub of Natives, opening oysters. The third man's face is concealed. On the table, besides oyster-shells, &c, are a candle burnt low and a large jug of Hot Milk. The walls are covered with shelves. On one set (left), inscribed Larder of Death, are druggist's jars, &c. These include Opium, Oxalic Acid, Calomel, with a box of Gamboge. The other, inscribed Good Living, are laden with food: a pie, a chain of sausages, a sirloin, jar of Cherry Bounce, round of beef, a Scots Haggis, a hare, a bird. There is also (left) a high shelf of books."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A similar scene to BM Satires 12349, but more calamitous and in a larger cabin. Through the roof-light of the cabin passengers under umbrellas are seen on deck. A sailor stands on a table to hand up a bucket, spilling the contents disastrously, to another who leans through the aperture, dropping a mop on a woman below. Tables tilt violently, upsetting those seated at them. A ham, a sucking-pig, a German sausage, a bottle of wine, &c, slide or crash to the floor. A man holds up a bottle of Spruce [beer], so that its exploding contents strike the face of a falling woman. There are many other incidents. Passengers lie in the two tiers of berths or struggle from them; others sit on lateral benches or sleep on the floor."--British Museum online catalogue
