"Sinclair, tall and thin, stands full-face, holding up in his right hand a balance (steelyard, or stilliard) inscribed 'Vive le Egalité'. A large British flag at the right end of the beam much outweighs a bunch of objects at the other; three documents: [1] 'Navy of England to be retaind viz: 50000 Seamen & half a Dozen Ships of War - 500000 Sailors to be sent to plant Potatoes.' [2] '10 000 heavy reasons for giving the Enemy a fair chance of getting out of their Ports.' [3] 'Advantages of cold oeconomy'.

"Under the title, and from a separate plate, is etched in three columns: 'Description. - One French Soldier putting Hand-cuffs, and another Fetters on the Speaker, whose Mouth is gagged with a Drumstick. The rest of the Members [left], two & two, tied together by the Arms with cords, (Mr Pitt & Mr Dundas by the Leg with an Iron Chain, which has three Padlocks, but the Key-holes spiked up). They are all, dressed in the Uniform of the Convicts of Botany-Bay, to wit, Coats of two Colours, long Breeches [i.e. trousers], no Stockings, & their Heads close shaved; French Guards opposite to the Members, with their Hats on; one of whom carries an Axe, & a Blazon of a Death's Head on his Breast. Two Clerks near him with their Pens in their Ears, hanging their Heads [tied back to back]. Republicans in the Galleries waving their Hats, in which are triple-colour'd Cockades, & clapping their Hands. An English Blacksmith [right], in his Waistcoat & Cap of Liberty, breaking ye Mace in pieces with a fore Hammer, the Statutes tumbled on the Floor, the Cap of Liberty [inscribed 'Egalité'] raised high behind the Speaker's Chair, below which is painted in Capital Letters, " This House adjourned to Botany Bay - sine die." The Chaffers and burning Charcoal continuing to stand in their present places in the House, but filled with red-hot Irons, to sear One Cheek of the Members before they set off; & the Other, if they shall be found Guilty, by the Verdict of a French Jury, of returning to their own Country without Leave of the French Directory in Writing. An English Cobler in the Cap of Liberty, blowing with a Bellows one of the Chaffers the Fuel, the Journals of the House.' [Dalrymple, op. cit. inf., pp. 1-2.] The Speaker holds in his mouth a drum-stick, at each end of which is a bow of parti-coloured ribbon, adding a touch of burlesque. The table lies on its side on the ground and on the heavy cloth lie papers, ink-stand, books: 'Journals of the House' (torn), 'Declaration of Rights', 'Hanover Succession', 'Claim of Rights', 'Magna Charta'. The chained members are on the Ministerial side of the House only, the Opposition side is filled with fierce-looking French soldiers, cavalry (wearing plumed helmets) with drawn sabres, infantry (wearing cocked hats) with fixed bayonets. All have daggers in their belts, except their officer, apparently Bonaparte, who has two pistols in his sash, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword. Pitt and Dundas, chained back to back, stand slightly apart from the other members, guarded by a ruffian with axe and 'blazon' of skull and cross-bones. Three members are chained together by the front bench (left to right): Wilberforce, [?] Lord Mulgrave, Windham. The cobbler and the blacksmith are Fox and Sheridan, much caricatured and scarcely recognizable. [See Dalrymple's prospectus: 'Consequences of the French Invasion', p. vi. He charged Gillray 'not to introduce a single Caricature, or indulge a single sally that could give pain to a British Subject. I had little Occasion to repeat the Advice, for he is a Man of Genius; and, like all such Men, is fair and human'. Dalrymple wrote to Gillray: 'I beg you will not impute what I am going to mention to any Breach of my promise not to interfere in any of the prints. But I confess I wish that the Gag was out of the Speaker's Mouth. It may hurt his feelings as a Gentleman . . .' (n.d.). B.M. Add. 27337, fo. 20.

"Bonaparte, burlesqued, stands, swaggering, with legs astride, head in profile to the left. In his right hand is a sabre, dripping blood, inscribed 'Egalité'; he holds out the scabbard (chained to his waist) in his left hand. Under his right foot is a torn paper headed 'Nelsons Victory over the Fleet of the Republic'. He wears an enormous cocked hat decorated with feathers, aigrette, tricolour cockade, and crescent. The skirts of his double-breasted military coat fly back, reaching to the ground behind; round his waist is a voluminous fringed sash, in which are thrust a pistol and a jewelled dagger. He declaims, the words in a large label which floats up to the upper margin: ""What? our Fleet captur'd & destroy'd by the Slaves of Britain? \ - "by my Sword & by holy Mahomet I swear eternal Vengeance! - yes, \ - "when I have subjected Egypt, subdued the Arabs, the Druses & the Maronites; \ "become master of Syria, - turn'd the great River Euphrates, & saild upon it through \ "the sandy Desarts; compel'd to my assitance [sic], the Bedouins, Tuscomans [sic], Kurds, \ "Armenians, & Persians; form'd a Million of Cavalry, & pass'd them upon Rafts \ "six or Seven Hundred Miles over the Bosphorus, I shall enter Constantinople - \ - "Now I enter the Theatre of Europe, I establish the Republic of Greece, \ "I raise Poland from its ruins, I make Prussia bend ye knee to France; - \ "I chain up the Russian Bear, I cut the Head from ye Imperial Eagle; \ "I drive the ferocious English from the Archipelago - I hunt them \ "from the Mediterranean, - & blot them out from the catalogue of \ "Nations! - Then shall the conquer'd Earth sue for Peace, \ "& an Obelisk be erected at Constantinople, inscribed \ "To Buanoparte [sic] Conqueror of the World, \ & extirpater of the \ English Nation.""
