- Depiction: The occupants of two waterside crafts are exchanging courtesies on the river . . . . The boatmen in the respective wherries are bawling at one another, and a stout damsel is extending, in expressive pantomime, an invitation which has shocked the proprieties of the occupants of the other craft, a lady of ton in a gay hat and feathers, and a very prim old gentleman, who is looking rigid with horror and indignation.
