Abstract:
"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

Abstract:
"Five horses with human heads, ridden by jockeys, race for the half-open door of the Treasury (left), across a wide cobbled pavement. The Regent and Lady Hertford with Lord Hertford standing behind holding his Lord Chamberlain's wand, stand on the pavement (left) watching the finish. The winning horse, Liverpool, is a piebald, with an earl's coronet round his neck, and branded 'H'. Next is Wellesley, a marquis's coronet round his neck, ridden by a jockey in oriental dress with a jewelled turban, who looks over his shoulder, saying: "Come Grey push on you'll let Pye Ball win else." Next is Moira, a blue ribbon round his neck representing the Garter granted on 12 June (which he had refused on 28 Feb., see 'Corr. of George IV', i. 29, 34-5), close behind is Grey; last is Grenville. Lady Hertford, as umpire, exclaims: "Bravo Pye Ball you have fairly won." Lord Hertford cries: "Huzza Pye Ball for ever." The Regent turns to a stout John Bull, to say: "Come Johny out with your Cash your favorite has lost you see." John puts out a protesting hand, saying, "No No D--e if I do! I'm off, why its a proper cross and Jostle I d'ont like the Umpire neither." John wears a top-hat and top-boots, his pockets bulge with money-bags, and he holds a cudgel. In the roadway is a cob or pony with the face of Sheridan, branded 'P R', ridden by the stout Yarmouth, from whose pocket projects a paper: 'The Milling Hero a Poem', see No. 11746, &c.; he is too large for his mount, and says: "Softly! Softly! poor Old Sherry, Oh my poor bones are in danger!" The animal kicks, saying: "It's a d--d dirty Job to carry such a -- but as I carried your Master [the Regent] through before you hold fast and I'll take you to the end." In the foreground (right) a man stands full-face, shouting; he holds a tall pole on which is a placard: 'The Treasury Sweepstakes for high-bred Hunters 4 Heats The M-ch-ss of H--s Pyebald Colt Liverpool ------- 1, dr, dr, 1 Iohn Bulls favorite ch. f.
