A design in ten numbered compartments arranged in two rows, an inscription in the upper part of each. '1 This is the House for Cash built!' A view of 'The Treasury': a corridor leading from an archway in a stone wall. '2 This is the Cole [money, cf. BMSat 7924, &amp;c] that lay in a hole in the midst of the House ... [&amp;c.]'. A circle of sacks, their mouths converging on a heap of guineas; coins escape from holes in the sacks. '3 This is the Youth who to speak the truth look'd after the Cole, that. . . [&amp;c.]'. Pitt, his head in profile to the left, sits on a bundle which from its shape appears to contain all the sacks in '2'. '4 This is the Scot of fortunate lot who flatter d the youth who . . . [&amp;c.]'. Dundas, wearing tartan, with Scots cap and plaid, stands in profile to the left. '5 This is the Patriot shatterd and shorn once in esteem but now forlorn a friend to the Scot. . . [&amp;c.]'. Wilkes (d. 26 Dec. 1797) stands full-face, in old-fashioned but elegant dress. '6 This is the Boy with speech Complete who spent all his money before it was meete, that smiled at the patriot. . . [&amp;c.]'. Fox (never favourable to Wilkes) stands directed to the right, hat in hand, as if in the Commons. '7 This is the Lad for dashing away, who on every subject has something to say, that stuck close to the Boy... [&amp;c]'. Sheridan stands directed to the left, his head in profile, right hand outstretched in an oratorical gesture, a paper in his left hand. '8 This is a Blade in Jesuit rug who wrote a book to make himself snug, but frowned on the lad . . . [&amp;c.]'. Burke, wearing a biretta and cassock (cf. BMSat 6026), with a shawl or rug hanging from his shoulders, stands directed to the right, his head in profile. He holds a large book: 'Ans[wer] to Pain[es] Rights of [Man]', and scowls through his spectacles with an expression of pedantic arrogance. (For Burke's quarrel with Sheridan (1790) see BMSat 7627, &amp;c. His book, see BMSat 7675, &amp;c, was answered by Paine's 'Rights of Man', see BMSat 7867, &amp;c.) '9 This is the Judge with eyes like a Hawk, and is highly delighted to hear himself talk, that shook hand with the blade . . . [&amp;c.]'. Loughborough, in Chancellor's wig and gown, stands directed to the left, holding his mace against his right shoulder, the purse of the Great Seal in his left hand. '10 This is the Nobleman governed by Gall - who grumbled look'd black and Damn'd them all [cf. BMSat 7320] - not excepting the Judge . . . [&amp;c.]'. Thurlow, directed to the left, sits scowling in a high-backed chair, wearing a hat, his hands on his thighs. 1 December 1797
