A tall handsome young woman, full-face, her right hand extended, left on her breast, leans to the right as if singing dramatically. Looking up at her (right) is a stout and shorter woman (? Lady Buckinghamshire) wearing a hat and holding a fan.   Both wear short-waisted dresses and partly uncovered breasts, a fashion becoming to one and not to the other.  A voluminous scarf is swathed round the neck of the singer, the ends tucked in at the waist. Two erect ostrich feathers are in her hair, and large rings decorate her ears.  Her right hand is extended in protest above a tray of jellies and tartlets held by a footman (left).  He is grotesquely caricatured in face and (old-fashioned) dress.  On the wall (left) is a whole length portrait of a lady dressed in the fashion of c. 1740, wearing wide hooped petticoats, a lace apron, and a flat hat.  Her right hand is in a small muff.   Beneath the design are the same verses as in BMSat 8569.   For the fashions satirized see BMSat 8571, &amp;c. For 'The Rage' see BMSat 8498. 1 December 1794.
