A broadside satirising Benjamin Hoadly and High/Low Church disputes. An etching showing Hoadly seated at a desk writing "An Answer to a Sermon publish by Her Ma[hesty's] Com[mand]"; that Sermon lies on the table beside him, lettered "A Sermon pr[eached before Her] Majesty [by] Exon [i.e. the Bishop of Exeter; referring to the sermon of 8 March 1708]", and his crutches lean against the table. To the right, stands Oliver Cromwell, shown as Hoadly's supporter, weilding an axe. On the far wall is a book shelf with the following books: "Burn[et] Past[oral] Letter"; "Har[rington] Oceana"; [Toland] Chryst[ianit]y not Myster[iou]s"; "[Tindal] Rights of ye Chr[istian] Ch[urch]"; "Sydney of Gov[ernmen]t"; "Hobb[e]s Leviathian"; "Milton"; "Lock[e] of Governmen[t]". In the foreground, on the floor to the left lie organ pipes, a mitre, the Book of Common Prayer, a crozier and a bishop's robes; to the right, a small bearded man earing a cap decorated with ass's ears and snakes playing a large drum. Engraved title and verses in two columns. (n.p.:1709)
