A rectangular stone tomb (left) is broken at one end to show (left) the end of a stone coffin in which lie a lady and a man. On the tomb is a pyramid decorated with emblems: two goats playing Irish harps, and a head with stag's horns, &amp;c. On the top of the pyramid a decapitated and meretricious figure of Fame stands on her neck, feet in air, pointing downwards. The tomb is inscribed: 'Here \ blended lie th' oppressor \ and \ the' oppressed. \ Pope'. Behind is the ruined wall of a Gothic church with two tablets headed by grinning cherubs: (left) 'Near this place \ Lieth \ Lady C------'; (right) 'Near this place lieth An Irish Volunteer A Dutiful Servant And Faithful Friend'. An irradiated mask lies on the left of the tomb, a cockaded hat on the right.
<p><br>On the right stand three spectators: an angry husband clenching his fists, between a man (right) in profile to the left, holding up two fingers and scowling derisively, and another man with a grin stooping to look into the tomb. 12 January 1785
