Lettering
Doctor Slop, and Susanna quarrelling: the nurse with Tristram Shandy in her lap. ...
Lettering continues: "I never was the destruction of anybody's nose! said Susanna: which is more than you can say! - Is it cried Slop, throwing the cataplasm in her face. - Yes it is cried Susanna - returning the compliment with what was left in the pan"
