Inscription: in plate above: "Joy with Tranquility / No. 8"; below: "This passion is represented by a Philosophical Brewer, who having gained a considerable Prize in / the Lottery, receives it with the most perfect composure -- a useful lesson for those persons / who are too apt to be over elated at an unexpected change of Fortune."
