[54] Mrs. Siddons.
[55] The name of the street in which the Society was held.
[56] One of the Esquire Bedells who bear the mace before the Vice-Chancellor.
[57] The savage despair of the Member is finely pourtrayed by the trousers. A total indifference to moral guilt or personal danger is argued by his thus appearing before the Vice-Chancellor; that gentleman justly regarding the wearing of trousers as the most atrocious of moral offences, and having lately deservedly excluded a distinguished wrangler who had been guilty of them, from a Fellowship of his College.
[58] Speakers of the Society.

[60] The Vice-Chancellor elect.
