Summary: 

Print shows the Prince (right) and a tailor (left) fighting, each supported by a woman; the tailor fights with a yard-measure inscribed "The Brighton Taylors Yard", using his goose or iron as a shield; he says, "We'll have no Idolatry". His cap resembles a fool's cap; his stockings are ungartered; his shears lie at his feet. The Prince raises a bludgeon with the profile head of Hanger as its head; it is inscribed, "The Royal Bang you or Whapp ye", and in his left hand is a rolled document inscribed "Matri[mo]ny"; he says, "There shall be no Fornication". Mrs. Fitzherbert stands on the extreme right holding up her hand admonishingly and saying, "Stand stiff for the Sex Georggy". Behind the tailor (left) stands a young woman in profile and pregnant (Kitty Wade), raising her left fist and saying, "I'll Wade to my middle for Snip". In her right hand are a cucumber and onions, the tailor's emblems, and behind this couple is the tailor's house, inscribed, "J. Motherhill - Womans Taylor". Behind Mrs. Fitzherbert is an inn, of which she appears to be the landlady, with a signpost surmounted by a crown: "George & ye Dragon", with St. George on horseback killing the dragon.
