The targets of this humorous piece cannot be doubted, despite the carefully worded assurances in the dedication: 'The shameless profligacy of the court of Bagdad happily forms a striking contrast to that of London; and as to the Chief Cadi, the Hero of the Tale, it seems impossible to recognize in him any one of those features, which pre-eminently distinguish those exalted Personages, on whom the courtesy of our City so justly bestows the title of "Right Honourable!".'.
