Abstract:
"Wetherell (left), an invalid in dressing-gown and night-cap, reclines in an arm-chair, exhausted but laughing. Facing him stands Eldon in deep dejection, saying, with both hands raised, 'Poor Boroughbridge! how is it with you?' Cumberland, on the extreme right, stands behind Eldon, covering his face with his handkerchief; he says: 'Facetious to the last!--It is quite affecting!' Horace Twiss leans on the back of Wetherell's chair; Chandos, dressed as a woman, stoops over the patient; both are smiling. Wetherell: 'All over my friends! just in time to hear my "last speech and dying words"! But dont look so grave about it, I assure you we treat the matter in our house as if it was an excellent joke--to be sent out of the world with a dose of Russell's purge"! is so droll; & then, we are to have such a merry funeral'. On a commode is a bottle labelled 'Russell's purge'. Peel, smiling, and Goulburn, holding a handkerchief to his face and leaning on Peel, watch from the background."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"John Bull as a Chinese, in Chinese costume, hugely corpulent sits full-face in an arm-chair, legs extended, hands resting on the sides of his paunch. He looks to three doctors on the left, the foremost being Grey, who leans towards him, pointing to his colleagues (left), and saying suavely, 'This deformity is quite inconsistent, believe me, with the Nature of your Constitution & therefore must be got rid of, I will undertake with your approbation, to remove it & my assistant Doctor Russell here will prepare you for the Operation'. Lord John Russell, on the extreme left, speaks confidentially to Althorp who is in back view: 'I once thought that a case of this description ought to be treated with great caution and even wrote as well as talked a great deal about it, but now I am quite of a different opinion I think there is nothing like cutting away thro' thick & thin!' J. B.: 'I ca'nt say that my bodily health was ever better, or that I ever felt stronger tho' to be sure I am not growing younger; but then every one is telling me how deformed I am grown of late & this tumour which I have had from my infancy is all a Mass of Corruption'. On the right and slightly farther from the picture-plane, the rival doctors, Peel and Wellington, are in consultation. The Duke: 'I say the Man has no defect in his Constitution & that what they call corruption is necessary to his existance--but now because he would not believe me, but choses rather to submit to the experiments of these rash operators --Wharnecliffe who is a sensible Man lays all the blame on me'. Peel: 'Yet I begin to think we could have done better, when we found him determined to think that his Constitution was impaired, to have tried--just in the way of soothing, a gentle alterative Course'."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a variant state

"A cricket-match. The King (left), who is nearest the picture-plane and larger in scale than the others, has just bowled, with arms flung wide, a huge ball inscribed 'Reform', hitting the batsman, Wellington, in the stomach and knocking him against the stumps. Grey fields near the King, exclaiming, 'Hu.a he's Out'; the King: 'Aye and with a Ground hopper too'. Farther off (left to right) are Burdett (in top-boots), Lord John Russell, who says 'Thats what I call a Purger' [see British Museum Satires No. 16602], and Brougham. All the players wear shirts and waistcoats. There are also two others in the field (as spectators they wear coats), Aberdeen (indicated by tartan) who says 'Foul Foul', and Cumberland. In the background are many frantically cheering spectators and a marquee from which flies a flag inscribed 'Umpire Public Opinion'."--British Museum online catalogue
