Description |
English: Fox, standing in front of an archway (right) inscribed 'Office' (cf. BMSat 8981), kicks and pushes Pitt away from it. He is stout, ruffianly, and fierce, and wears a bonnet-rouge [not coloured red] with cockade; he says, "Push on keep moving Billy". Pitt (left), tall and thin, in profile to the left, runs forward, shedding tears, a large handkerchief in his right hand. He says: "Pray forgive me this once! and I'll never do so no more." Both are grotesquely caricatured. Above the design: 'May every honest man turn out a rogue.' 27 April 1797

Notes |
(Description and comment from M.Dorothy George, 'Catalogue of Political and Personal Satires in the British Museum', VII, 1942) On 27 Mar. Lord Suffolk moved the dismissal of Pitt in an eccentric speech. It was supported by Bedford, Derby, Moira, and others. 'Parl. Hist.' xxxiii. 183 ff. For the City Address for the dismissal of Ministers see BMSat 9001. The title is a contemporary catch-word, cf. BMSats 9005, 9113, 9264, 9507. |

[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. ![]() |
