The Mayor, with an ass's head, sits full-face in an arm-chair (left), shedding tears. Hunter (right), with a horse's head, sits behind a table in profile to the left, leaning forward and lightly touching the ass's head. His left hand rests on a paper; he says: 'Come! Come! Cheer up!—Ours was an error of the Head not of the Heart'. Key (as Dogberry): 'Yes,—haw, haw—but they—haw, haw, write me down an ass' ["Much Ado", IV. ii. cf. BM Satires No. 16322]. See BM Satires No. 16303, &amp;c.  c.  November 1830
