Summary
Colored caricature depicting John Bull as Bottom waking up as a fairy removes a cap with donkey ears. Kemble lends him a hand as a tiny figure in a kilt runs away. John Bull says: "Ah! my good friend Mr. Kemble how do you do? Mrs. Siddons I am happy to see you--mercy on me what Enchantment have I been under!! is that the Pigmy I was so much attach'd to? why he appears now no bigger than a pinshead!! and I declare I thought him as tall as the Monument!!"
