y marched northwards, to reduce the little garrisons remaining in those parts; which was easily done.--_Swift_. Scottish dogs. _Ibid_. [par. 263.] _Clarendon_. The person whom that earl [of Montrose] most hated, and contemned, was the Marquess of Argyle.--_Swift_. A most damnable false dog, and so are still their family. P. 478. [par. 284.] _Clarendon_. The Parliament had, some months before, made an ordinance against giving quarter to any of the Irish nation which should be taken prisoners. ...

Barbarous villains, and rebels. BOOK IX. P. 484. [par. 2.] _Clarendon_. Persons, whose memories ought to be charged with their own evil actions, rather than that the infamy of them should be laid on the age wherein they lived; which did produce as many men, eminent for their loyalty and incorrupted fidelity to the crown, as any that had preceded it.--_Swift_.

[whereby] he should discover, whether he had so many friends in the Parliament, and the city, as many men would persuade him to conclude; and whether the Scots had ever a thought of doing him service.--_Swift._ No more than Beelzebub.
