A central scene of a sailor in an embrace with his lady. A ship on the sea in the background to the right, bearing the union flag. A church can be seen on the hillside in the distance to the left.

A verse is printed above and below the central image: 'The distant climes may us divide / To think on you shall be my pride / The Winds and Waves may prove unkind / In me no change you'll ever find. / A Magic Spell will bind me fast / And make me love you to the last / Let Cupid then your Heart incline / To take me for your Valentine.'.
