- Abstract:
- "Lyndhurst stands beside a dressing-table (left), in shirt-sleeves, wearing his Chancellor's wig. He puts one hand into the arm-hole of a coat which a footman in livery holds out, saying, 'Your Lordship's Coat is become very threadbare for you know you turned it only last year--& it has been turned before that: so I much doubt if it will bear turning any more-- Can't you afford to buy a new one now her Ladyship earns her own Expenses?-- Doodle pays all her bills and gives her every thing she can wish for.' Lyndhurst: 'Alas! she'll get no more out of Doodle! he has quite kicked her off--She is just now gone to Cumberland to try after a service there which perhaps may enable me to keep still sitting on Wool, if I can but turn this Coat once more & look decent.' On a settee (right) are the mace, Purse of the Great Seal, and the Chancellor's gown."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "O'Connell (unrecognizable) marches jauntily to a door on the extreme right, over which is a board inscribed 'St Ste[phens] To Trespassers Men-Traps--Constantly Set--Beware'; he is followed by an Irish mob, yelling and flourishing shillelaghs. He wears barrister's wig and gown with a mitre-shaped cap decorated with a cross, shamrock, and bells (emblem of folly). Under his right arm is a large book inscribed '1 & 2'; his left hand rests on a stout stick. His gown is held up by a ragamuffin and the procession is headed by a bloated priest who holds up on a bludgeon a placard: 'Unconditional Emancipation O C For Ever'; this is surmounted with shamrock. The crowd are evidently from St. Giles and similar Irish slums in London; two carry hods, emblem of the Irish builder's labourer or hodman. On the extreme left in the foreground is an Irish basket-woman, holding her basket, smoking a short pipe; she shouts 'Stop wid ye now--are ye goin to lave the ladies behind--ye blackguards.' She is barefooted, very ragged, and wears a soldier's jacket (cf. British Museum Satires No. 15721). See British Museum Satires No. 15759, &c."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A stout cylindrical shaft stretches across the upper part of the design, inscribed 'Manufactures & Commerce'. To this cling by both hands four ragged and desperate artisans, wearing aprons, but it has broken in the middle so that they, and others clinging to them, are about to fall into the swirling clouds at the base of the design. Two larger and stouter men, respectably dressed employers, cling frantically to the legs or garments of the four artisans. At the base of this inverted pyramid is a stout figure, half-bishop, half-King, clinging to coat-tails and pocket of the two men above him. A bloated episcopal face is half covered by a battered crown (right), while a large mitre tilts to the left, and the figure, Church and State, is clothed half in surplice (left), half in ermine-trimmed robe, with one episcopal leg, and one leg with a garter inscribed '[Hon]i Soit' [George IV as in British Museum Satires No. 15819 by the same artist]. Above the broken shaft is a large irradiated inscription: 'Manufactures & Commerce support the Workmen | they the Merchants & Masters who are the | chief tax payers & thereby support | The great tax eater Church-and- State.'"--British Museum online catalogue
