Coloured etching. Framed, sight size 295 x 230mm (11½ x 9"). Trimmed close to title at bottom, losing four quatrains of verse. Unexamined out of frame.
Lord Temple, naked and fat, wings strapped to his arms, attempts to fly after his father but falls towards a 'Stake out of Public-Hedge!', as his wings of quills and sealing wax fall apart because of the heat of the sun with a head of George III. Behind is the Paymaster's house in Whitehall, with a black servant in livery handing up a package to a man in a cart inscribed 'Stationary Office'. Temple had been Vice-President of the Board of Trade and Joint Paymaster-General but had lost these posts with the fall of William Grenville's 'Ministry of All the Talents', when he was jokingly accused of having carried off large quantities of stationery. In 1796, while competing to become MP for Buckingingham Temple boasted that he had a large stake in the country: Tierney retorted that it was 'a stake ' which it now appeared had been stolen from the public hedge', a barb that was remembered in this satire.
