Engraving (coloured and uncoloured impressions) by Isaac Cruikshank. The king, sword in hand and wearing regimentals, leads a party of officers in pursuit of three fleeing officers (right): Fox holding a musket is in the centre, with the Prince of Wales, holding a sabre on his right and (?) Charles Grey (or perhaps, from the length of his nose, Lord Stanhope) on his left Sheridan has fallen and lies on his back, his sabre beside him. Between the pursuers and the pursued is a rough bank with bushes. Immediately behind the King is Pitt firing at the fugitives. Two young officers behind him are smiling. On the extreme left is Burke, rigid and austere, shouldering his musket. The Foxites wear the plumed helmets of yeomanry or light dragoons (their first appearance in these prints); the King and his party wear cocked hats of the Ramilles type. In the distance are platoons of firing men, cannon and (right) a line of mounted men. Clouds of smoke extend across the sky. Beneath the title is etched: 'The Prince and his party were drove to the summit of a hill where they made a stand for nearly an hour & a half but were at length Obliged to retreat to the bottom setting dire to the furze & hedges the Smoke of which favourd their flight and left the several battalions masters of the field his Majesty followed the enemy on foot at the head of a troop of dragoons to the foot of the hill when he remounted & returned back to the Lines'. On 23 June the King reviewed the Coldstream regiment and the battalion of Grenadiers on Sydenham Common, the Duke of York (Col. of the Coldstream) giving word of command. 'Lond. Chronicle', 23 June. It was customary for the Prince of Wales to attend reviews; at this time, by his speech in the Lords on the Proclamation of 21 May, he had ranged himself on the opposite side to Fox.
