Bishops rowing on the River Thames, London, 1747. Haw'y, haw'y, L-b-th haw'y, 'Sculls, sculls to Lambeth! See how hard they pull 'em! But sure the Temple's nearer much than Fulham'. Three bishops rowing with the tide, and one against the tide, opposite Lambeth Palace, watched by a crowd of clergy, noblemen and watermen.
