- Abstract:
- "A country dance; eighteen couples in a strip design in the manner of the 'Long Minuet' (No. 7229), dance with awkward vigour; one of the most active ladies has a wooden leg. The first couple (left) face each other, the lady squinting violently. On the right a man turns eagerly from his elderly and offended partner to a young lady, whose partner also holds the hand of another lady, while an elderly man stands alone on the extreme right, holding his wig, and mopping his bald head. The elder men wear powdered hair with small pigtails, the younger ones have frizzed hair without powder, short or with small tails. Only one or two wear wigs. The women wear simple high-waisted gowns with elbow sleeves and long gloves; one wears a hat and long sleeves. All wear flat-heeled shoes, and have frizzed hair, short, or piled on the head; a few wear feathered bandeaux; one lady only has powdered hair. Some have strange hair ornaments: a fat and very decolletee lady with a lap-dog under her arm wears round her erect bush of hair a circlet from which project barbed zigzags, like lightning flashes. A youngish lady has on her head a bird with a barbed fang; an older one in spectacles wears a small windmill behind two drooping aigrettes. The neglected lady wears a tiny wheat-sheaf, her pretty rival a ship in full sail. Below the title: 'What an elegant Set-What a bustling of Rumps! What a Sweet Toe to Toe-ing of Slipers and Pumps! At the sight my Old Drumsticks are ready to Prance There is nothing I love so as seeing Folks Dance.'':--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "Ministers and others dance in a ring round a Green Bag (see British Museum Satires No. 13735) resting on a horizontal beam which is supported on a post. Round post and bag cling poisonous plants labelled 'Devils Bit', 'Enchanters Nightshade', 'Scorpion Grass', and 'Henbane'. The wide-mouthed bag is filled with Italian witnesses, clamouring with eager hands stretched towards Leach, the Vice-Chancellor, who stands in the centre of the bag, towering above them. In each hand he holds out a sheaf of bills or notes inscribed 'Promise'; he says: "Gentlemen a [sic] we are now about brining [sic] this business to a close, allow me to address a few words to you; as its not at all improbable that you may be d . . . d roughly handled by my Countrymen, be sure and be firm, stick one and all of you to your depositions--don't be brow beaten and thrown of your guard your priest will give you absolution, and here are some promises that will enable you to return home and buy Principalities.!!!" The witnesses answer: "Me want l'Argent"; "de Monte ... "; "Sacre Bleu de Monie"; "Monie M ..."; "Me no Sware widout Monie"; "No promise, de Monie"; "Si, Si, Diavilo de monies." The King stands behind the post, concealed from the waist up by the bag; his words float up towards Leach: "Why Deputy Bags [i.e. deputy to Eldon] could you not have picked out a more respectable set of Scoundrels." Facing the King, and in back view, are Sidmouth and Castlereagh, holding hands and capering delightedly. The former says: "Derry we want music, can't you whiste [sic] Lillibulero?" Castlereagh answers: "Faith Doctor I sing small, and can't whistle at all; you had [sic] give us a tune on your pipe" [the clyster-pipe hanging from Sidmouth's pocket, cf. British Museum Satires No. 9849]. The Attorney-General, Gifford, holds Sidmouth's left hand; he looks up at Leach, saying, "He is exalted sure enough! well! I hope to be in time! else wherfore breathe I in a Christian Land!" Canning, on the extreme left, holding the hands of Gifford and (?) Lord Harrowby, exclaims: "Egad I hope they won't cut his throat before he gets rid of them! what an exit for Vice!--" In his pocket is a paper: 'Canning jests'. Between Harrowby and the (concealed) King stands Wellington, less caricatured than the others; he says: "Why he has skimed the Very Scum of the Country Sire!" Holding Castlereagh's right hand is Lord Eldon, in Chancellor's wig and gown; he looks up at Leach, saying, "There you are Vice! up to your knees in iniquity!--" Next him and on the extreme right is Wilberforce, with lank hair and drawn-down mouth. He cries: "The Lord have mercy upon him and help him safe down again! what a cut throat Crew." Facing the Chancellor, and holding the King's left hand, is the Archbishop of Canterbury, fat and grinning (cf. British Museum Satires No. 13276); he says: "Our pious brother there Will by-force ejaculate something holy!" Between them is a partly concealed head."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A huge bull, snorting fire, rushes with lowered head towards a French fort (left) from which cannon-balls descend upon him. Beneath the fort sansculottes on one knee fire at the bull while standing French soldiers, correctly dressed, also fire. On the fortress stand Frenchmen, firing and waving their hats; they shout: "Vive la republic, Blood & plunder, no Quarter to John Bull!" A huge tricolour flag has a staff surmounted by a skull. To the bull's back is strapped a bundle inscribed 'Debt Debt'. One horn has been shot off and lies on the ground. To his left hind leg is chained a heavy weight inscribed 'Subsidies'. Nevertheless, he cries: "Now my brave Allies let us all stand firm together & make a bold push, & I'll be Answerable for the Event." But behind him (right) his allies have all turned their backs and are departing in directions indicated by signposts. A fat Dutchman smoking a pipe goes 'To Amsterdam', saying, "I care not who beats, I'll join the Strongest Party". Frederick William II (father-in-law of the Duke of York) walks off 'To Berlin', saying, "I've fingerd the Cash from both Sides, & will now employ it to Secure the Partition of Poland"; "Negociate with Robertspierre privately & then - Damn Relationship!!!" Next, a Spanish don, Charles IV, goes 'To Madrid', saying, "Whats the Bourbon Family to me when they Impede my Interest. Hush!! I am now treating for a Separate peace with that Blackguard Roberspere to Secure my own Crown - I must enlarge the Powers of the Inquisition". On the extreme right Francis II and Mack in a two-wheeled gig, on which is the Habsburg eagle, are driving off 'To Vienna'. The Emperor says: "Well Mack we have made a Glorious Campaign of it; of what use are the Low Countries without they continue to fill my Coffers? As for John Bull, let him settle the business as he can he loves to be meddling"."--British Museum online catalogue
