Satirical cartoon, Divertions of Purley

Satirical cartoon, Divertions [Diversions] of Purley, or Opposition attending their private affairs. An inverted sentimental maternal scene with the Whigs nurturing Revolution and Sedition, two baby demons perched on Fox's knee. Behind in legal garb is Erskine who holds up a rattle made out of the Jewels of a Coronet'. Charles Grey prepares the bedding of a cradle while Sheridan scrubs away in a tub of soapsuds. To the left, slitting an ermine robe, are the radicals Horne Tooke and Thelwall
