The text recounts a dream-vision Telephorus claims to have received on Easter morning of 1386, in which an angel directed him to research the causes of the Schism, to determine the identity of the true and false popes, and to prophesy the end of the schism. Telesphorus draws on and interprets escatological treatises by such authors as Joachim de Fiore and Johannes de Rupescissa, and predicts that the Italian antipope will be killed in Perugia in 1393, following which the crown of the Holy Roman Empire will be given to France

Abstract:
At the Gate of Calais, a fat monk is shown poking a very large side of beef carried by a thin cook; the label indicates that the beef is intended "For Madm Grandsire at Calais." On either side are two French soldiers, one of whom spills his bowl of thin soup as he gazes in amazement at the beef. In the foreground on the left, three market women with crosses hanging from their necks admire a skate in a basket of fish; on the right, two ragged men carry a large pot of soup while another drinks from a bowl, and a Scottish soldier cowers beneath an archway; in the middle distance, to left, Hogarth himself is seen sketching at the moment when a soldier's hand takes him by the shoulder; beyond, through the gate, is a religious procession
