. [par. 121.] _Clarendon_. No men were fuller of professions of duty [to the King], ... than the Scottish commissioners.--_Swift_ The Scots dogs delivered up their King. False-hearted Scots. [This addition obliterated.] _Ibid_. [par. 122.] _Clarendon_. The agitators, and council of officers, sent some propositions to the King.--_Swift_. Detestable villains, almost as bad as Scots. P. 64 [par. 136] _Clarendon_. Mr. Ashburnham had so great a detestation of the Scots.--_Swift_. So have I. P. 68. [par. 144.] _Clarendon_. Hammond,--_Swift_. A detes Villain, almost as wicked as a Scot. P. 76. [par. 159.] _Clarendon_, Marquess of Argyle.--_Swift_. Always a cursed family. P. 77 [par. 159.] _Clarendon_. The commissioners ... were confident that all Scotland would rise as one man for his Majesty's defence and vindication.--_Swift_. A strange stupidity, to trust Scots at any time. _Ibid_. [par. 160.] _Clarendon_. They required ... "that the Prince of Wales should be present with them, and march in the head of their army." ... The King would by no means consent that the prince should go into Scotland.--_Swift_. The King acted wisely not to trust the Scots. P. 79. [par. 162.] _Clarendon_, Treaty signed, Dec. 26, 1647.

What a medley of religions! in all thirteen. P. 80. [par. 163.] _Clarendon_, the same:--They would assert the right that belonged to the crown, in the power of the militia, the great seal, bestowing of honours and offices of trust, choice of the privy-councillors, and the right of the King's negative voice in Parliament.--_Swift_. They would rather be hanged than agree. _Ibid_, [ditto.] _Clarendon_, the same:--An army should be sent out of Scotland ... for making a firm union between the kingdoms under his Majesty, and his posterity.--_Swift_. Scotch impudence. P. 81. [par. 165.] _Clarendon_, the same:--The King engaged himself to employ those of the Scots nation equally with the English in all foreign employments, and negotiations; and that a third part of all the offices and places about the King, Queen, and Prince, should be conferred upon some persons of that nation.--_Swift_.
