From the 'Hibernian Magazine', 1786, p. 685. The 'parliament' meets under a large tree in whose branches sits a convict in irons wearing a hat and wig which suggest those of the Speaker. Among a crowd of ruffians with clubs, some in irons and some raggedly dressed, are Fox, North, and Burke. Fox is making a speech, hat in hand, one foot on the shoulder of North who is seated on the ground asleep. Burke, wearing spectacles, stands on the left, holding up a small cross intended to imply that he is a Roman Catholic (cf. BMSat 6026). In the background are gibbets from which hang corpses. January 1787
