The Pope is flanked in the center above by the allegorical figures Religion and Ecclesiastical Power. Above him flies the Holy Spirit. To the left sits the king on a throne, beside him Divine Zeal, Concord, Justice, and Piety. The king banishes the allegorical figures Ignorance, Error, and Deception, with Jansenism in the center holding 'The Augustinus', preceded by Jansenists.
