Inscribed: “Engraved by J.R. Smith Mezzotinto Engraver to his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales / Dauntless they plunge amidst the vengeful waves, / And snatch from death the lovely sinking fair— / Their friendly efforts lo! each Briton saves! / Perhaps their future Tyrants now they spare.“; “24 March 1814 by S. Morgan”
