English: O'Connell lies asleep, wreathed in smiles, next his wife, whose profile is framed by a frilled cap. Beside the bed (right) are his barrister's wig on a wig-block, a tripod supporting a wash-basin and inscribed 'Holy Water', many recently opened letters, one 'To Daniel O'Connell Esqr M.P.', the others showing only the broken seal and a large 'M.P.' The dream, ringed by clouds, fills the space above the bed. His wig and gown, in back view, is a storm-centre; the tails of the wig fly outward, each pointing to the word 'agitation'. Beside it are the Mace and the Purse of the Great Seal; the royal robes with crown, sceptre, and collar of the Garter forming the King, and, as if being blown into space, Wellington, Peel, and Lyndhurst, all dismayed. Aug 15 1829
