P. 20. [par. 43.] Clarendon. Scottish officers.—Swift. Dogs.
P. 31 [par. 74.] Clarendon.. A thousand at the most. Most of the persons of quality, etc. [Swift underscores most.]
P. 33. [par. 78.] Clarendon, on the exemption of Prince Rupert from being under the command of the general, Lord Lindsey:—When the King at midnight, being in his bed, and receiving intelligence of the enemy's motion, commanded the Lord Falkland, his principal secretary of state, to direct Prince Rupert, what he should do, his Highness took it very ill, and expostulated with the Lord Falkland, for giving him orders.—Swift. A great mistake in the King, by too much indulgence to Prince Rupert.
P. 40. [par. 90.] Clarendon. The King's preferring the Prince's [Rupert's] opinion in all matters relating to the war before his [Lord Lindsey's].—Swift. I blame the King's Partiality.
P. 48, line 28.—Swift. Cursed Scots.
P. 50. [par. 109.] Clarendon. His Majesty had, from time to time, given his council of that kingdom [Scotland] full relations of all his differences with his Parliament.—Swift. Cursed Scots for ever.
P. 51. [par. 112.] Clarendon. The chief managers and governors in the first war, by their late intercourse, and communication of guilt, having a firm correspondence with the Marquess of Argyle, the Earl of Lowden, and that party.—Swift. Always a cursed family of Scots.
P. 59. [par. 142.] Clarendon. As the inviting the Scots, etc.—Swift. Too long a parenthesis.
P. 62. [par. 154.] Clarendon. For the better recruiting whereof [the Parliament's army], two of their most eminent chaplains, Dr. Downing and Mr. Marshal, publicly avowed, "that the soldiers lately taken prisoners at Brentford, and discharged, and released by the King upon their oaths that they would never again bear arms against him, were not obliged by that oath;" but, by their power, absolved them thereof.—Swift. Perfect Popery.
P. 65. [par. 161.] Clarendon, the King's message to the privy council of Scotland:—"Of all ... the ... indignities, which had been offered to him, he doubted not the duty and affection of his Scottish subjects would have so just a resentment, that they would express to the world the sense they had of his sufferings."—Swift. Cursed Scots; to trust them.
