hink that nobody who compares Burnet's account of
this conversation with Dartmouth's can doubt that I have correctly
represented what passed.]

[Footnote 508: I have seen a contemporary Dutch print of the
disembarkation. Some men are bringing the Prince's bedding into the hut
on which his flag is flying.]

[Footnote 509: Burnet, i. 789.; Legge Papers.]

[Footnote 510: On Nov. 9. 1688, James wrote to Dartmouth thus: "Nobody
could work otherwise than you did. I am sure all knowing seamen must be
of the same mind." But see Clarke's Life of James, ii. 207. Orig. Mem,]

[Footnote 511: Burnet, i. 790.]

[Footnote 512: See Whittle's Diary, the Expedition of his Highness,
and the Letter from Exon published at the time. I have myself seen two
manuscript newsletters describing the pomp of the Prince's entrance into
Exeter. A few months later a bad poet wrote a play, entitled "The late
Revolution." One scene is laid at Exeter. "Enter battalions of the
Prince's army, on their march into the city, with colours flying,
drums beating, and the citizens shouting." A nobleman named Misopapas
says,--"can you guess, my Lord, How dreadful guilt and fear has
represented Your army in the court? Your number and your stature Are
both advanced; all six foot high at least, In bearskins clad, Swiss,
Swedes, and Brandenburghers." In a song which appeared just after
the entrance into Exeter, the Irish are described as mere dwarfs in
comparison of the giants whom William commanded:

"Poor Berwick, how will thy dear joys
Oppose this famed viaggio?
Thy tallest sparks wilt be mere toys
To Brandenburgh and Swedish boys,
Coraggio! Coraggio!"

Addison alludes, in the Freeholder, to the extraordinary effect which
these romantic stories produced.]
