The first is barefoot, wearing cloak and walking stick and crosses safely, while the second one, who is elegantly dressed and gazes dreamily in the sky, is about to step in the water with shoes and stockings; representing Common sense and Genius. Etching by C. Heath after T. Stothard.

Lettering: Common sense, and Genius. One his eye ne'er rais'd from the path before him t'other idly gaz'd on each night cloud o'er him. While I touch &c. &c. Drawn by Thos. Stothard,R.A., engraved by Cha. Heath.
