Attributed by George to Charles Williams. Cf. BM Satires.
A design in compartments arranged in two rows. Coates stands in six different attitudes in the dress he wore as Lothario. Each design has a caption describing an ill-conceived gesture: [1] 'Through" (thrust your hands forward)'; his arms are held out to the right. [2] 'The Wide (Spread out your Arms)'; they are extended. [3] 'Circle" (Describe a circle with your finger)'; he stands with right forefinger pointing to the ground, left hand on hip. [4] 'Of Ten (Hold up both your Hands)'; his hands are held up to display his outspread fingers. [5] 'Revolving" (Describe a circle backwards with your hand)'; he stands pointing downwards with right forefinger. [6] 'Years" (Lay hold of your Ears.)'; he pulls the lobes of his ears.
