An imitation or the original of BMSat 9384. The design is substantially the same, but the Duke wears a shirt (tied with a sash) and shorter boots, leaving his enormously fat legs bare. He wears gauntlet gloves and a cocked hat of different shape. There are no clouds or demons. The feathers on the bed are altered to a conventional ornament. The arrangement of bed-table, bottles, &amp;c, is altered. Miss Gubbins says: "Oh' Dear what's the Matter if this is the Amusements of high Life I wish I was in the Crescent again". The Prince says: "Hush Gub dont be alarmed the Old Boy is only come for some more Burgundy". The Duke says: "most noble youth, I am thy Uncles Ghost, Doom'd for a certain time to walk at night, and win the Fates; shake off the Traitorous Crew that lurk around thy Table; expose thier treacherous schemes, inform the ruling powers what plots and treasons deep they meditae [sic] against the State; and thus by one bold patriotic deed restore Brittania's darling Son; then shall the sentence be revers'd and------shall live again".  See BMSat 9381, &amp;c.; for Miss Gubbins, BMSat 9373, &amp;c.  15 May 1799
