Abstract:
"Napoleon is being drummed out of France. His right wrist is tied to the left wrist of Joseph Bonaparte; they are led forward, abjectly crouching, by Blücher, who holds the rope attached to the noose round Napoleon's neck. Napoleon has long ass's ears and wears a fool's cap inscribed 'Transported for Life'; his brother's cocked hat is inscribed 'Coward and Thief'. Both are assailed by serpentine monsters, barbed and scaly, which bite their legs, one inscribed 'Execration', the other 'Detestation'. Both wear uniform with the coats without epaulets and cut off at the waist. Blücher carries against his shoulder a long pole on which is a placard: 'Napolean, Late Emperor of the French, King of Italy Protecter of the Confederation of the Rhine, Grand Arbiter of the fate of Nations &c &c &c but now by the permission of the Allied Sovereigns, Exile in the Isle of Elba an Outcast from Society a fugitive a Vagabond. Yet this is the conceited Mortal who said, I have never been seduced by prosperity Adversity will not be able to overcome me--' Behind (left) the sovereigns of Europe gleefully dance in a ring, holding hands, round two flag-staffs from which float two large flags, the Bourbon flag dotted with fleur-de-lis and inscribed 'Rejoice O ye Kings Vive le Roi'; on the other is a flag with the double-headed eagle of Austria or Russia. The monarchs wear crowns; with them is the Pope, wearing his tiara. Next him is the corpulent Louis XVIII, one arm round the Pope's shoulder. Of the others only William of Holland can be identified with certainty; he wears bulky Dutch breeches with an ermine cloak. There are five others, three must be the Tsar, Emperor of Austria, King of Prussia. The others are probably Ferdinand of Spain and Ferdinand of Sicily. They sing: 'Now we are met a Jolly set in spite of Wind or Weather'. The three foreground figures are faced by a row of soldiers beating drums, with an officer raising his sword."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Sailor and quack face each other in a consulting room. The sailor (left) has a clumsy bandage over forehead, one eye, and left cheek; he is dressed as in British Museum Satires No. 10894; under his arm is a cudgel, and in his hand a paper headed 'List of Cures'. Behind him (left) is an open cupboard containing a tall skeleton with goggling eye-sockets. With forefinger raised, warily pugnacious, he says: "You must know Doctor I have got a bit of a Confusion on my larboard cheek from a chance shot, and as I dont think it of consequence enough for our Ship's surgeon, I bore down to you, after overhauling a long list of your cures - but I suppose front the messmate in the Cabin there, you dont always make a return of the Killed and Wounded?" The doctor, in old-fashioned dress and wig, leans towards him with extended forefinger, saying, "Sir, my rule of practice is this, there is pen, ink, and paper, - sign a certificate of your cure, and I'll take you in hand immediately on paying down two Guineas!" A table with writing materials stands against the wall; on the floor is a crudely patterned carpet."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a variant state

Abstract:
"Six scenes arranged in two rows, divided by lines, each with a caption, and inscriptions above the design. The figures have large heads, broadly caricatured, in the manner of Woodward's Lilliputian designs, cf. British Museum Satires No. 9635, &c. [1] 'Conscience'. A fat florid woman gesticulates wildly, watched by a sour-looking man. They say: "Oh Im Undone! Im Undone!" and "Then I wish you would undo me--for they have fined me five Shillings for my bit of fun." [2] 'An Airing'. A fashionably dressed and grotesque couple walk arm-in-arm, registering anger. She says: "Now let us pretend to walk out as if nothing was the matter." He says, registering anguish, "Oh what a prize in the Lottery." [3] 'Alarm'. A woman holds a man on her knee. He says, registering dismay, "But if Mr Spriggins should come home what should we do then." She answers, calculatingly amorous: "Be not alarmed sweet Lily of the Valley." [4] 'A Walk to the Shubbery' [sic]. A not uncomely woman, holding up a fan, leads a hideous man towards a shrubbery. He says: "Let me lead you lovely fair one--Nothing loath." She answers: "Oh spare my Blushes." [5] 'A scene in a Stone Coffin'. A couple embrace in a stone coffin beside which lie a skull and bones. She says: "O Dear o dear if the Gostesses should come." He answers: D--n the Gostesses." (An Irish scandal of 1784, see British Museum Satires No. 6699, &c.) [6] 'Observation'. An old man wearing a night-cap and huge spectacles stands with bent knees gazing through a doorway. He says: "Mercy on me, what do I see--well a pair of spectacles is tantamount to two Witnesses"."--British Museum online catalogue
