cursed committee! _Ibid_. [par. 108.] _Clarendon_. Alexander Henderson.--_Swift_. A cursed fanatic! (Written in pencil, and partially rubbed out.) P. 123. [par. 109.] _Clarendon_. There was not a man of all the English, etc.--_Swift_. Cursed hellish Scots! P. 124. [par. 111.] _Clarendon_. They brought them with them and presented them to the King [Swift underscores _them_.] _Ibid_. [par. 113.] _Clarendon_. Three of the commissioners, and no more, were of the King's council, the Earls of Pembroke, Salisbury, and Holland.--_Swift_. Bad counsellors. P. 125.
