'The Political Drama, No. 19: the Five Plagues of the Country', 1834-1835. Above each of the figures is written; 'I govern the people [king with jester's stick]. I pray for the people [cleric with a boozer's nose]. I legislate for the people [politician holding flask of rosewater]. I fought for the people [Duke of Wellington]. I preserve the peace for all four [policeman with club]'. And above the devil on the extreme right is; 'And I'll have all five'. From The Political drama. [A series of caricatures.]
