In this coloured engraving the Lord Mayor of London, Mr. Slingsby Bethel, with the Corporation, carries the City Address to the king. Sir John Barnard in the figure of a bear tramples on the City sword, mace, and cap of state. A rope around the bear's jaws is held by the Duke of Newcastle. At the Duke's feet sleeps the British Lion, snoring "Minorca. Blakney-Concern-Early Notice-Wanting in their Duty to me". A French monkey points a pistol at the Lion.
