The Westminster mendicant. (BM 1851,0901.222), A blind beggar, Sir Cecil Wray, is led (right to left) by his dog, round whose neck hangs a 'Subscription Box'. He supports himself by a long staff; in his left hand is the dog's cord, and under his left arm is a larger box, inscribed 'Subscription Scrutiny Box'. He sings:

"Pity the Weak, and Needy pray
Oh pity me, I've lost the day."

Behind the dog is a placard inscribed:

"See here the Dog, of all his kind,
The fittest for a Beggar blind, 
The Beast can bark or grunt as Hog. 
His name is Churchill - Oh the Dog!"  11 May 1784
