The able doctor, or, America swallowing the bitter draught, en sanguine engraving shows Lord North, with the Boston Port Bill extending from a pocket, forcing tea (the Intolerable Acts) down the throat of a partially draped Native female figure representing America whose arms are restrained by Lord Mansfield, while Lord Sandwich, a notorious womanizer, restrains her feet and peeks up her skirt. Britannia, standing behind America, turns away and shields her face with her left hand.
