Five men stand round six chamber-pots, arranged in two piles of three, each inscribed 'Poll Book 1784' and supported on a rectangular block or table on which the title is engraved.  Each man holds his nose. One (left) in profile to the right, who holds a spoon, is vomiting; he says:
<p><br><br>"I already am sick
<br>Of this poisonous trick
<br>The busines so thick
<br>T'would weary old Nick
<br>With spoon or stick
<br>Right from wrong to pick."
<br><br>His vis-à-vis (right), who stirs the contents of a pot with a spoon, says: 
<br><br>"The cause I may gain,
<br>Though with labour and pain
<br>I can hardly refrain
<br>From puking amain
<br>Thro such fillth for to tag
<br>Is wares [sic] than euphorbium bag"
<br><br>(an allusion to the bag thrown at Fox in Westminster Hall, see BMSat 6426, &amp;c).
<br>The other three stand together behind the table; the central one says, "A hogo here is. Worse than Cats pis Than Devils Spew. Or Asafoetida." Two demons hold out a net which stretches behind the scrutineers. One (left) says:
<br><br>"Ay Brother and by my tail, 
<br>The Sheriffs shall admit no bail."
<br><br>The other (right) says:
<br><br>"Spread the net and you shall see
<br>Many a false oath will come to me."  24 April 1784
