The spirit of the book -or anticipation of the year 1813, a satire on the pending publication of The Book part of a campaign to attack the Regent through his wife, showing a figure, draped in white, supporting on outstretched arms the open pages of a huge book. He stands at the foot of the double throne, from which Lady Hertford has hurled herself; she lies face downwards on the dais, putting out a hand to ward off the dread apparition. Lord Liverpool, in front, is on his knees. Lord Ellenborough flinches to the left.
