Cromwell Mortimer. Line engraving by Rigou after W. Hogarth.
Description

Cromwell Mortimer. Line engraving by Rigou after W. Hogarth. Image of a tired looking man at a table, with a jester behind him. Owl atop the table holding quill and ink. Portraits on the wall read "Cromwell" and "Mortimer". Books under the table by Barrow, Boyle, Newton, Radclife, Mead. Other books in the bookcase. Verse around the image reads:
Here Folly, Ignorance, and Pride, Combine
To prove Him, of the true Duncean Line.

Studious he Sate, with all his books around,
Sinking from thought to thought, a vast profound!
Plung'd for his sense, but found no bottom there;
Then write, & flounder'd on, in mere despair.

Thro Luna Veil'd one, truly D. U. we see,
Nor fear to tell that Mortimer is He.
