Two asses on a bare patch of ground, with the first line of Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’ below. The play begins with three witches in a storm deciding when to meet next (‘When the hurlyburly’s done, / When the battle’s lost and won’). That there are only two asses in this parody presumably means that the dedicatee of the print, whose name is withheld, is the third.
