Abstract:
"'Cits' gallop (right to left) across a rough field near London, with one or two mongrel dogs under the horses' hooves. One leaps a small piece of water over the head of a man who has fallen in. A fat man is flung upwards from his prostrate horse. In the background is a 'cit's country box' surrounded by a wall, above which projects a gazebo, in the Chinese taste (cf. British Museum Satires No. 8208 by Bunbury). Tiny figures watch from a window and from the wall. Near the wall ride two little chimney-sweeps on an ass, and a woman on a broken-kneed horse."--British Museum online catalogue

"Four young naval officers, two being mere boys and apparently midshipmen (though the scene is unlike the cramped squalor of the midshipmen's berth), dine at a tilting table, from which decanters, a capon, &c., have fallen to the ground. A cabin-boy struggles up the slanting desk with a ham. One of the very flimsy chairs is overturned. A gun projecting through a port-hole is marked 'Clyde'."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Burdett, young and handsome, stands between two contrasted men. He takes the left hand of a stout good-looking fellow: 'The Genius of Honour and Integrity', and points with a gesture of dismissal to 'The Monster of Corruption', a hideous and grotesque old man who departs to the right, clutching money-bags. Above Burdett's head: 'Look here upon this picture, and on this, And then Judge for Yourselves'. He wears a ribbon like a Garter ribbon inscribed 'MAGNA CHARTA Bill of Rights'. Against the head of 'The Genius of Honour' are inscriptions: 'A sound Mind'; 'An Eye ever watchful to the Welfare of his fellow Citizens.'; 'A Tongue that never belied a good Heart'. On his shoulder: 'A Shoulder that never shrinks in trouble'. A placard across his chest: 'An Upright Breast and an Honest Heart'. On his paunch: 'A Lover of Peace and Plenty A Plain Liver'. His pocket: 'Pocket ever open to the Necessities of his Fellow Creatures'. Knee: 'A Knee to Religion'. Leg: 'Legs ever steady in his Country Cause'. In his right hand, inscribed 'Hand of Justice', he holds a paper: 'A Staunch Supporter of the Bill of Rights An Advocate for a Fair Representation of the People An Enemy to Bribery and Corruption'. 'The Monster' has a large grotesque head; his bald scalp is inscribed 'Professions and Promises'; the eye-socket is covered with a white disk: 'An Eye to Interest'; his projecting nose: 'A Scent for Interest'; his projecting toothless jaw: 'A Mouth of Guile'. He wears a 'Collar of Corruption'. The arm: 'Arms of Power'; hand: 'Hands of Extortion', holding a bag: 'Pensions Reversions Perquisites of Office'. In the left hand: 'Bag of Bribery'. On his chest: 'A Cringinge Soul'. On his paunch: 'Pampered Appetite'. His coat-pocket bulges with 'Secret Service Mony'. His right leg: 'Legs of Luxury'; his left thigh: 'A Rotten Borough'; shoe: 'Feet of Connivance'."--British Museum online catalogue

"Perceval, as Don Quixote, stands in front of the Treasury, giving his orders for the forthcoming session. Facing him, Ministerial members (right) stand at attention, clasping rolled documents, all inscribed 'Ministerial Military Exercise Aye & No', as if they were muskets; one is in Highland dress. A further phalanx in the background is on Perceval's left. He wears armour, with Mambrino's helmet (the barber's basin) and holds erect a tilting-lance, which serves as staff for the Royal Standard. His left hand, holding a 'Muster Roll', rests on his hip. Behind him, pen in hand, and with a pen behind the ear, the two Treasury Secretaries stand stiffly, each with a large book, one 'Names of Staunch Men', the other 'Names of Deserters'. On the extreme left and in the foreground George Rose stoops over a large 'Military Chest', filled with bank-notes, which he holds out towards the Ministerial troops. On the ground beside him lies a rose labelled 'A Rose in January'. Behind him, lurking in a gateway, is Melville, in Highland dress, with two similarly clad Scots peering over his shoulder. He says: "An Ye should want a set of braw fellows fit for ony service, I ha them here ready for ye". On Perceval's left is a mounted officer (Montrose) holding a paper inscribed 'Treaty for an Armistice for 14 days if Necessary'. Beside him is a mounted trumpeter. Perceval says: "Now my Lads lets see if you are perfect in your Exercise!!! You will stick close right or wrong". All answer "Aye. Nor refuse a good place when it is offered". All answer "No. Of course all I say is truth". All answer "Aye, Nor you wont let the Enemy Contradit me". All answer "No". Perceval: "That will do very well and my Aid de Camps shall register you accordingly remember there is something good at the bottom of the Ches [sic]". ..."--British Museum online catalogue
