ise sent."--_Swift_. To confound all. P. 142. [par. 356.] _Clarendon_, the same:--"We conceived, we had not left it possible, for any man to ... suspect, that the conversion of _our dearest consort_ was not so much our desire, that the accession of as many crowns as God hath already bestowed on us, would not be more welcome to us than that day."--_Swift_. A thorough Papist. BOOK VII. P. 199. [par. 71.] _Clarendon_. Being this way secure from any future clamours for peace, they proceeded to try Mr. Tomkins, Mr. Chaloner, ... Mr. Hambden, who brought the last message from the King, etc.--_Swift._ Which Hambden? Not the rebel Hambden? No, it was one Alexander Hambden. P. 201. [par. 75.] _Clarendon_. In the beginning of the war, the army in Scotland having been lately disbanded, many officers of that nation, who had served in Germany and in France, betook themselves to the service of the Parliament.--_Swift_ Cursed Scots for ever. _Clarendon_. Whereof divers were men of good conduct, and courage; though there were more as bad as the cause, in which they engaged. Of the former sort Colonel Hurry was a man of name, and reputation.--_Swift._ A miracle! Colonel Urrie was an honest, valiant, loyal Scot, repenting his mistakes. P. 203. [par. 78.] _Clarendon_.

[par. 162.] _Clarendon_. "We, the Inhabitants, Magistrates," etc.--_Swift_. Cursed rogues. P. 261. [par. 199.] _Clarendon_. Sir Anthony Ashley Cooper, a young gentleman ... of a fair and plentiful fortune.--_Swift._ Earl of Shaftesbury by Charles II. A great villain. P. 262. [par. 199.] _Clarendon_. The flexibility and instability of that gentleman's nature, not being then understood, or suspected.--_Swift_. Shaftesbury, an early rogue. _Ibid_. [par. 200.] _Clarendon_. The express returned without effect [from the King], and the Marquess [of Hertford] was as sensibly touched as could be imagined; and said, "that he was fallen from all credit with the King," etc.--_Swift_. Too fond of those nephews. P. 271. [par. 221.] _Clarendon_. [Lord Falkland] writ two large discourses against the principal positions of that [the Roman Catholic] religion, with that sh
