| Title | Symptoms of the Shop : Plate 8 |
| Date | 1 Mar 1801 |
| Description | A lawyer in conversation with another. On the left a man with a parcel under his arm bows slightly and says: "I have brought your honor home your new suit."
He addresses this to a stout lawyer, who replies: "Suit - ah Mr Buckram - you did not know me when I practiced in the courts - I could have shewn you suits that would have puzzled Judge Blackstone himself - none of your simple matters - brim full of Law, as a brief bag - intricate as the Temple avenues, - & long as Westminster Hall, Shy clients, sometimes, - but it would not do with Paul Parchement - sure to have them one way or other. Once in never out that was my motto."
