The rival queens or a political heat for Rege & Grege

Print shows an encounter between two stout ladies, Mrs. Fitzherbert (left) and Mrs. Schwellenberg (right), each with a second: the Prince of Wales, his hands on his lady's waist, and Pitt holding out a lemon to the furious German woman, who raises a massive sceptre in both hands to strike her opponent, saying, "You be de Pope & de Devils friend & by Got you be twice Married & by Got you will make us all Cat licks & by Got I will stand up for my Mistresss right as long as she has de Jewels left". Pitt says, "My dear Schwell'y you shall stand up for the wrights of the Poeple [sic] & I will Stand up for you". Mrs. Fitzherbert holds a crucifix in her right hand, her left fist is clenched; she says: "I say you are a German - & you send the Money out of this Kingdom by Millions". The Prince says, "Thou dost Support us well my Love, let Billy spread his subtle nets like Vulcan. In thy embraces I would be beheld by Heaven & Earth at once, & Make their envy what they meant their sport. Let those who hate us Blush, I would love on with awful State, Regardless of their frowns. As their superiour god. There's no satiety of Love in thee, enjoyd thou still art new, perpetual spring is in thy arms, the ripen 'd fruit but falls & Blossoms rise to fill its emty place & I grow rich by Giving". From his pocket protrudes a paper inscribed: 'When I am King diddle diddle you shall be Queen'. Both ladies are fully dressed with long gowns, Mrs. Fitzherbert has feathers in her hair, her opponent a piece of drapery; the latter's scowl and clumsy appearance contrast with Mrs. Fitzherbert's confident manner: they probably represent Roxana and Statira in Nathaniel Lee's tragedy "The Rival Queens, or the Death Of Alexander the Great." Cf. George.
