The blessing of new taxes
The blessing of new taxes!!!. John Bull, holding a pipe and a frothing tankard, is beset by the Regent and Ministers. Sidmouth furtively takes the pipe from his hand, looking over Johns head at the Regent who extends his hand to seize the tankard. The Regent, with both legs gouty and swollen, says: Yes and I would take the blood from your veins if I could get any thing for it. At Johns feet kneels Vansittart, ferociously plying a hammer inscribed Cannon with which he fixes to the floor a heavy chain riveted to an iron belt round Johns waist. At the other end of the table sits Mrs. Bull, with tea-pot. She throws up her arms in dismay as Castlereagh takes the tea-pot. Eldon, in chancellors wig and gown, walks off with wool sack. Date c. 1819 Sept. The blessing of new taxes!!!. John Bull, holding a pipe and a frothing tankard, is beset by the Regent and Ministers.
