A burlesque tomb supported on scrolls which enclose a miniature landscape with a fox-hunter and dogs chasing a fox.  On the apex of the tomb is a bust portrait of the fox-hunter, wearing a hunting-cap. This is enclosed in a circle of rope held by a Devil who bestrides the circle, looking down fiercely, a scroll inscribed 'Hoo woup' issuing from his mouth, his attitude suggesting that he is about to fly off with the portrait; the two ends of the rope terminate in serpents' heads.   The Devil stands on a carved block on which are realistic emblems of fox-hunting: a fox's head between two hounds on their hind-legs. Below are a saddle, horn, sieve, &amp;c. Beneath this carved block is an inscription on a rectangular block which forms the base of the monument:
<p><br><br>'Hound &amp; Horse the chief Glory, the Turf the chief Toast,
<br>And the Chace all the knowledge Squire Botch-barn could boast; 
<br>He lay down with his Maid, &amp; arose with the Lark, 
<br>Hey to cover when Light, hey to Bett in the dark; 
<br>Thro' Dells &amp; thro' Dales, over Hills &amp; high Rocks,
<br>Gate, Wall, Hedge &amp; Ditch, he pursu'd the stout Fox; 
<br>At length as the Wheel of Dame Fortune roll'd round, 
<br>Was himself hunted here, by grim Death, &amp; took Ground;
<br>Here Envy resides not, to goad the proud breast,
<br>And here for the first time his bosom found rest;
<br>Howl Finder &amp; Fairmaid, weep Dog, Lad &amp; Wh-re,
<br>For alas! poor old Botch, your best Friend is no more.' 
<br><br>Beneath the landscape is engraved:
<br><br>'Hic jacet; hie placet; 
<br>Cur-quaeris?-hic facet.'  c.1788
