that subject; and therefore gave not the least opposition to their passion [of the Scots].--_Swift_. A true Argyle. _Ibid_. [continuation of the same sentence.] _Clarendon_. But seemed equally concerned in the honour of the nation, to prosecute an high expostulation with those of England, for the breach of faith, and the promises, which had been made for the safety, and preservation of the King's person, at the time he was delivered up.--_Swift_. The Scots were the cause and chief instruments of the King's murder by delivering him up to the English rebels. P. 222. [par. 13.] _Clarendon_. It was very manifest ... that the Marquess of Argyle meant only to satisfy the people, in declaring that they had a King ... but that such conditions should be put upon him, as he knew, he would not submit to.--_Swift_. Most detestable villain. P. 224. [par. 17.] _Clarendon_. As soon as he came into the room where they were.--_Swift_. Abominable Scotch dogs. P. 225. [ditto.] _Clarendon_. A learned and worthy Scottish divine, Dr. Wishart.--_Swift_. A prodigious rarity. _Ibid_. [par. 18.] _Clarendon_. The Earl [of Lauderdale] told him [one of the council] ... that he could not imagine, or conceive the barbarities and inhumanities Montrose was guilty of, in the time he made a war in Scotland.--_Swift_. That earl was a beast; I mean Lauderdale. _Ibid_, [ditto.] _Clarendon_.

[par. 24.] _Clarendon_, for the embassy from the Parliament: --one Dorislaus, a doctor in the civil law, was named.--_Swift_. A Dutch fellow, employed by those regicides who murdered the King. P. 237. [par. 41.] _Clarendon_. The Prince of Orange ... wished, "that, in regard of the great differences which were in England about matters of religion, the King would offer ... to refer all matters in controversy concerning religion to a national synod."--_Swift_. I do not approve it. P. 249. [par. 69.] _Clarendon_, on the defeat of the Marquess of Ormonde by Jones.--_Swift_. Ormonde's army discomfited! P. 265. [par. 119.] _Clarendon_. And that Committee of the Parliament.--_Swift_. Scots. _Ibid_. [par. 119.] _Clarendon_. The council of Scotland ... sent a gentleman ... to invite his Majesty again to come into his kingdom of Scotland, not without a rude insinuation that i
