Below the title: "W——ns occupation gone." Wellington sits at a table in profile to the left, reading by the light of one candle a letter from the King: 'May it please Your Grace We accept it WR'. He registers dismayed surprise. In the upper left corner of the design:
<p><br>"Deuce take the K—g's denunciation, 
<br>Deuce take the Don-Key's no-celebration, 
<br>The Devil take Emancipation, 
<br>The Devil take Dan's botheration. 
<br>The Devil take Joe Hume's oration, 
<br>And Brougham's each false allegation 
<br>The Devil take Bob's degradation 
<br>And Goulbourn's stupid calculation. 
<br>The Devil take the population. 
<br>The Devil take—Civilisation 
<br>The Devil take my Resignation 
<br>Ive lost Ive lost my situation"  c. November 1830
