A would be Cromwell, Tooke Horne mad at tempting to disperse the short parliament Decr 1790 (BM 1868,0808.5983), A scene in the House of Commons: Horne Tooke (half length) rises through the floor in front of the table holding a torch and a dark-lantern. The table is covered by a large package, inscribed 'Petition of Horne Tooke', which is the centre of an explosion (fired by Tooke's torch) indicated by rays extending over the design in all directions, and blowing off the hat and wig of the Speaker (Addington), who calls out "Order". These rays are inscribed (left) 'Cattle', 'Riffraff', 'Hirelings', (right) 'Oxen', 'Asses', 'Creatures'.  Pitt (left) stands legs astride, his arms extended, haughtily deprecating the confusion, his head thrown back with a contemptuous expression.   Lord Hood, crouching on the ground, looks through his legs, as if taking cover. Pepper Arden has risen behind Pitt, and says, "Truth is a libel". On the opposite side of the House Sheridan lies prone, as if he had fallen in an attempt to escape; he turns his head to say, "This place is become quite a School for Scandal". Fox, struck by the full force of the explosion, falls backwards. Behind sits Burgoyne, leaning forward and saying "Encore! Encore!" Beneath the design is etched:
'A few days since Margaret Nicholson who had found means to escape from her confinement in the disguise of an excommunicated parson procured admission in to the H--- of C--- and concealed herself under the mace with a dark lanthorn in her pocket, having by stealth laid what appeared a petition upon the table but which proved to be a vast bundle of combustibles, these from her concealment she Took an opportunity to set on fire which going off, produced a most alarming explosion but fortunately did no other mischief than that of overturning several members on both sides of the house and leaving a most horrible stink, from which last circumstance and her appearing like a parson many of the country gentlemen as she passed them pronounced her to be the devil, indeed some of them declared that they distinctly saw her tail through a rent in her breeches.'  18 December 1790.

Aはクロムウェル、ホーンは短い議会を解散させようと怒った。 1790年12月(BM1868,0808.5983)、庶民院のシーン:ホーン・トゥーク(半長さ)トーチとダークランタンを持ってテーブルの前の床から立ち上がる。テーブルには、四方をデザインに沿って伸びる光線によって示され、「オーダー」と呼ばれるスピーカーの帽子と鬘を吹き飛ばす「ホーン・トゥークの景色」と刻まれた大きなパッケージで覆われている。光線は「牛」「リフグラフ」「ヒアリングス」などと刻まれている。ピットは脚を伸ばして、腕を伸ばして、混乱をめかすように頭を投げ返した。地面に腰掛けているフード卿は、足を覆っているかのように見つめている。ピットの後ろに現れたペッパー・アーデンは「真実は名誉毀損だ」と叫ぶ。シェリダン邸の反対側には、彼が逃げようとして倒れたかのように見えやすくなっている。爆発の力に打たれたフォックスは後方に倒れる。後ろに座ってバーゴインを前にして「アンコール!」と叫ぶ。アンコール!デザインの裏には「破門されたパーソンに変装して彼女の監禁から逃れる手段を見つけたマーガレット・ニコルソンが、CのH-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------手彩色エッチング
