On the 14 July 1775 Lady Mary Coke wrote in her journal:

Has Lady Greenwich told you of the Duchess of Devonshire, Lady Melburn, and Mrs. Damer all being drawn in one picture in the Characters of the three Witches in Macbeth? They have chosen that scene where they compose their Cauldron, but instead of ‘finger of Birth-strangled babe, etc.’ their Cauldron is composed of roses and carnations and I daresay they think their charms more irresistible than all the magick of the Witches.

(Quoted in The Life of Anne Damer by Jonathan David Gross p34)

[Witches’ Round the Cauldron” c. 1775 by Daniel Gardner, Panshanger copy owned by the Melbourne family. Right to left; Anne Damer, Lady Melbourne, and the Duchess of Devonshire]

The National Portrait Gallery writes of their copy; “The composition has no parallel in Gardner's oeuvre and it is assumed that either Damer or Melbourne suggested the design. Melbourne is also thought to have commissioned the work which has descended in her family.” In his biography on Anne Damer Jonathan David Gross notes; “The fact that the Melbourne family owned a copy of the portrait, rather than the more detailed painting, however, suggests that Anne was the likely originator and that Lady Melbourne received her copy as a gift.” However he notes that “Mary Coke’s journal suggests, at Lady Greenwich’s prompting, that the three young women dreamed up this monstrosity together.”
