Title	The Genius of Caricature, and his Friends Celebrating the Completion of the Second Volume of the Caricature Magazine in the Temple of Mirth
Date	2 Jul 1808
Description	The last page of the second Caricature Magazine. Grotesquely caricatured Lilliputian figures sit round a table, in a room whose walls are decorated with prints from the magazine. In the middle a smiling harlequin says: "Success to Volume the Third". In his hand he holds a banner, with a verse which reads: 'Mr Tegg. Mr Tegg! You're at home to a peg, volume two is now fairly completed, Then to Cheapside repair, Ye who spurn at dull care, And with wit, fun & frolic be treated, With Woodward we'll laugh, And with Rowlandson quaff, And drown every Folly absurd, Here's a toast to the brim, My gay children of Whim, Success to their Volume the Third.' Available on CD 163.
