"A yokel puts his head through a trap-door (left), holding up a lantern and pitchfork. He gapes in horror at the sight before him. Two witches (right) sit over a fire burning in a bowl; one holding a broom gazes grimly towards the creatures they have called up: two bodies, one old, the other young, both winged, one having wings of flame, terminate together in the crouching hind-legs of a beast of prey; with these are the head and neck of a monstrous bird. Two grotesque goblins emerge from clouds (left), and a serpent hisses at the women."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"The daughter of Count Platoff stands full face, erect, dashing, and alluring, on a snowy mound. Her right hand supports a spear from which floats a banner inscribed: 'I General Count Platoff. promise to give my Daughter in Marriage and 2000 Rubles - to any Cossack, Russian, Prusian, German, Sweede, Turk, John Bull, Sauny Bull Paddy Bull or any other Bull, who shall bring Me the Head of Little Bony dead or a live.' She wears fur-trimmed cap with a long hussar-bag, long high-waisted fur-bordered pelisse, with a cape, fur-trimmed boots, and large ear-rings. The words 'Hih "ho" for a Husband' issue from closed and smiling lips. With her left hand she points behind her to the right and to the little figure of Napoleon on skates, wearing a large plumed bicorne, and brandishing his sabre; he deserts his snow-bound army, saying, "O" ho" bygare I had best be Off." He strides past the heads of soldiers emerging from snow, together with bayonets, and a French flag; behind him the French army marches in close ranks, with one eagle and one flag. On the left is another column of tiny soldiers indicated by heads, bayonets, an eagle, and flags. In the clouds, airborne as in No. 11992 (British Museum catalogue), are two bands of galloping Cossacks, one (right) seems about to swoop down on Napoleon. Heavy clouds frame slanting rays which make a background for Platoff's daughter. At her feet are two money--bags both inscribed '1,000 Rubles', which disgorge coins. Behind them a kneeling Cupid aims his bow towards the 'cloud of Cossacks' on the left."--British Museum catalogue

Abstract:
Plate from 'Town Talk', iv. 247. A procession of coaches through 'Cavendish Square', the houses of which form a background, together with a street which recedes in perspective on the left. The foremost coach (right) has a roof shaped like a Chinese pagoda and decorated with bells; on the apex is a seat occupied by an ape, dressed as a man, who rings a handbell and blows a horn. Bells are attached to the springs of the coach. The arms, surmounted by a coronet, are crossed whips, the crest a fool's head. A man seated on the box turns to the driver to say: "No bad scheme of Sr Harry's to get the Amateur [Coates] to perform today! tolerable attendance." The driver wears a conical hat with a vast brim, manifold capes, and a large nosegay, with top-boots. Two servants sit in the rumble; one points to the ape, saying, "What do you think Tom of our new fellow Servant! did Master get him from Bond Street." The other answers: "Oh No! hes not one of the Loungers [see No. 8377, &c.] Master had him from Exeter Change [menagerie] he has been well educated you see." The second equipage is the odd-shaped curricle of 'Romeo' Coates, see No. 11768, &c., drawn by four horses, whose harness, like the curricle, is decorated with cocks. He is dressed as Lothario, see No. 11769, &c., with three huge feathers towering from his hat. He says: "I scorn that odious uniform which would hide the graces of my form and those detestable boots would spoil a most delectable leg!--Bless us! how we draw, out of the theatre as well as in." The following coach is on the extreme left; its roof is a four-sided pinnacle topped with a spike; the driver is dressed like the man on the first coach. He says (of Coates): "I'll back him to spar with Molineaux at St Martins Court for the benefit of Carter." The man beside him answers: "Aye my Lord! or I'll take the chance of the day for my debt, and remove the execution from your carriage and horses." A man on horseback in the background shouts: "your lordship had better take the Opera House, as it will be for a charitable purpose." The road is crowded with spectators many of whom wave their hats. Tiny coaches proceed along the Square from right to left, to join the procession. In the foreground is a row of well-dressed spectators in back view. Shouts rise from the distant crowd: "The Hobbies! The Hobbies"; "Cock a-doodle do"; "The Monologue"; "Bravo Romeo." On the extreme right is the gilt equestrian statue of the Duke of Cumberland, erected in 1770.--British Museum onlne catalogue

"The arms of two gibbets extend symmetrically, high above a bonfire; between them is an equally high post supporting a board on which the title is etched. From one (right) dangles a realistic effigy of Napoleon (scarcely caricatured) in cocked hat, uniform, and Hessian boots. From the other hangs a ruffianly fellow holding a dark lantern. They face each other in profile. The fire is under Napoleon; smoke and flames drift towards Guy Faux. Country people cheer the bonfire, with two boys capering hand in hand in the centre foreground. Below the design (an alternative title): 'Bonfire at Thorpe Hall near Louth Lincolnshire on 5th Novr 1813 given by ye Revd W. C. to the boys belonging to the Seminary at Louth in consequence of the arrival of news of the Decisive Defeat of Napoleon Buonaparte by the Allies [see No. 12093] at 11 O Clock P M on ye 4th & Louth Bells Ringing all night.' Below is etched in two columns (left): 'GUY FAUX'S DYING SPEECH I Guy Vaux meditating my Country's ruin by the clandestine and diabolical means of Gunpowder Plot, was most fortunately discovered and brought to condign punishment by Old England and here I bewail my fate.' / 'NAPOLEON BUONAPARTES DYING SPEECH [right].

Abstract:
Two men, elderly and grotesque, stand one on each side of a double-bass, playing it simultaneously with great vigour; one (right) is left-handed. Behind the instrument stands a violinist, holding up fiddle and bow in his right hand, giving an agonized scream and stopping his ear with his finger. In the foreground lies a large open music-book: 'Double Bass Hum strum diddle dum'. On the wall is a picture of a little chimneysweep flourishing two brushes like drum-sticks behind the Hottentot Venus (see British Museum satires No. 11577), who capers along, pipe in one hand, staff in the other, her much-exaggerated posterior serving as a drum. A vase of flowers stands on a wall-bracket.'

"Four elderly physicians fight wildly, flourishing their canes, in a room leading to that of the patient (right). One has fallen on his back, two others fight across him, each planting a foot on his chest; he clutches at the coat of one of these, shouting, "I say it is an exfoliation of the Glands, which has fallen on the membranous coats of the Intestines & must be thrown off by an Emetic." In his pocket is a letter: 'To Dr Emetic Upper B . . .' In the pocket of the man he clutches is a letter: 'To Dr Sudorific . . . sell. Squoe.' The latter answers the antagonist who has seized his neckcloth: "I say it is a pleurisie in the Thigh and must be Sweated away!" His adversary, 'Dr Drastic Cloacina Row', answers: "You are a blockhead! I say it is a nervous affection of the Cutis & the patient must immediately loose 18 ounces of blood and then take a powerfull Drastic." The fourth doctor (right) assails Drastic: "What are you quarrelling about! you are all wrong I say it is an inflamation on the os Sacrum, & therefore 14 blisters must be immediately applied to the part affected & the adjacents." His letter of identification is: 'To Dr Blister Cantheartic Pla . . .' Through the open door (right) the amused patient, in dressing-gown and night-cap, watches the fray from beside his bed, having just risen from a commode. He remarks: "I say Dame Nature has relieved me both of the Cause & Effects while these learned disputants are deciding the nature of my complaint-so I'll e'en be off to save both my money and my Life."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"An Eurasian, Portuguese, or English lady, sallow, with black hair, sits on a stool in profile to the right in the centre of a bare room, attended by six Indian women. She dips both hands into a shallow open box held by a woman seated on the floor. Another stands beside her, watching. On the right an ayah nurses a doll-like infant. Another servant stands holding up a bell-shaped implement with a long handle. A fourth (left) sits full-face, apparently on a low stool, using a slab to pulverize something on a board; beside her are a small earthenware pot and a three-legged pot with a lid. A low oblong stool stands on the floor. Behind, a young Indian girl approaches from the left holding a jug and an oval tray or mirror. There is a large door or window (left) closed with persiennes; before this is a table on which are a closed oblong box and a (?) wine-bottle. Another large window-space is open to the sky. The Indians are almost black, except for the strong whites of their eyes, and wear coloured draperies. There are heavy shadows. Apparently a companion plate to No. 11165 by the same artist, probably an amateur. Cf. also No. 11832, &c."--British Museum online catalogue

Beside him are the words: "I purge I bleed I sweat em, Then if they Die I Lets em"."--British Museum online catalogue

In a crowded tavern before a large roaring fire, Dr. Syntax sits on a bench smoking his pipe as he engages in debate with three companions. A man leans over the back of the bench and blows a large cloud of smoke into the back of Dr. Syntax's head. The room is filled with military personnel who frolic and flirt with pretty girls; the barmaid stands at the bar pouring wine. Everyone has a full glass at hand. The signs on either side of a large clock read "Real Yorkshie stinco" and "No trust here".

Abstract:
"Bedroom scene: an invalid in a dressing-gown sits smiling in an arm-chair, while a fat yawning doctor, 'Quiet', puts a night-cap on his head. On the right 'Merryman', dressed as a zany or clown, with a gridiron painted on the back of his striped tunic, kicks Death towards the door (right), and presses his cap like an extinguisher against its grinning skull; he says: "Be Off! Be Off! you have no chance where Diet Merryman and Quiet practice!" Death answers: "Then my first job must be to quiet you and your partners will soon follow." Quiet: "Come now for a little quiet; Merrymans dose has opperated suficiently!" The patient holds a 'merrythought'. A fat cook, 'Diet', stands on the left inspecting a dish of bare chicken bones; he says, grinning broadly: "He'll do! Pick'd the bones clean! We shall beat the Charlotte Street Medical Board hollow!" A dinner-table, with an empty plate, a decanter of 'Madiera' and a loaf, is on the left, and behind it a large canopied bed. The chimneypiece (right), is covered with medicine-bottles. The floor is boarded. On it lie two piles of 'Carricatures', evidently the 'Caricature Magazine', on which the imprint is inscribed. There are also books lettered 'Jests'. A puff for Tegg's Magazine, cf. British Museum Satires No. 11976."--British Museum online catalogue
