Engraving (coloured impression). A fat woman has fallen on her back from a ladder, knocking down her lover, who lies on his back beneath her. He wears military uniform. Both scream angrily, and a dog (left) barks at her. The ladder, one rung of which is broken, leans against a first-floor window (left) from which the husband looks out, holding a candle. Behind (right), a laughing postilion holds open the door of a post-chaise. A full moon with grinning features looks down from clouds. A lamp projects from the corner of the house. The title Is from ‘a lively dance tune’. 'Harriette Wilson’s Memoirs', 1919, p. 104. Cf. No. 13143. Grego, 'Rowlandson', ii. 237-8.
