Scene in the Road to Ruin (BM 1876,1014.36), The Prince of Wales, the Duke of York, and Henry Barry as Harry Dornton, Milford, and Goldfinch in Holcroft's play. The Duke, wearing regimentals, stands in the centre, saying to the Prince (left): "come Come along the Tennis match will be all Over a rare match between Will - the Marker and the Frenchman so Come along." The Prince, wearing his star, turns away from his brother to read a playbill posted on the corner of a building: 'This Evening the Road to Ruin Mr Munden . . . and Goldfinch by Mr Barry [illegible word] with the Reclaimed Rake'; he says, "I will not come no - no". 'Cripplegate' Barry stands on the right looking through an eye-glass, and saying, "O Dam me what a Cake Thats your Sort." (Cake, foolish fellow. Grose, 'Dict. Vulg. Tongue', 1796.) He is extravagantly dressed in the manner of the 'crops' of the period, see BMSat 8040, &c, the stage directions being 'high-collared coat, several under waistcoats, buckskin breeches covering his calves, short boots, long spurs, high-crowned hat, hair to the extreme etc.'. His right leg is twisted to indicate his club-foot, and his cane is thrust into his boot. May 1792
