Print shows an allegorical scene where a youth stands before a pyramid inscribed with the names of battles in the American Revolution. The goddess Peace attempts to turn the youth away toward three other goddesses, one of which holds a staff topped with a liberty cap, suggesting that the "rising generation of America ... pay close attention to religion, liberty, and commerce." Description of the print appeared on p. 42.
