Different views of
the grievances taken by
the different sects.
1. Church of Englandist
the sect to which the
mass would appear least

The grievances and consequently the nature of the
redress sought could not but wear very different aspects
in the eyes of the various several sec parties sects or sets into which the population,
as above stood divided, as characterized by the
persuasions professed on the subject of religion.

1. This sect [which could not have but find least to
complain at of — the set] in whose eyes instance the mass of the supposed
causes of complaint could not but appear less than in the
eyes of either of the two others were that of the Established
Church — the body of the Church of Englandists. +

2. Grievances to Church of
Englandist
1. Trade cramped &
avowedly to favour
do of Britain.
Orders to which they
would be most
sensible, the lowest
and middling.

1. To the prejudice of the whole body of them they without exception saw
their trade avowedly restricted for the above avowed purpose
of giving advantage to the trade of the English and
Scotch, subjects their fellow subjects under of the sam Monarchy. The lower and
middling order ranks are those in whose breasts on this account the sense of oppression
would naturally be most acute are the lower and
middling classes.

2. In This and all other
grievances in favour
of Britain all hope
of redress excluded
by Prinny's law by
which the initiator
was confined to the
authors of the all such
grievances, the British
rulers, devoid of sympathy,
of affection and
conception for the Irishmen,
holding them in hereditary
hatred and contempt

2. They all Under this and whatever
other grievances other material immediate and sensible evils under the pressure of which it might ever happen to them to labour
they saw themselves, so long as the Constitution should remain
unchanged, cut off from all hope of redress by the
law called Prinny's Law by which the Parliament of Ireland
was incapacitated from g so much as taking into consideration
any now proposed law, that had not previously
received the approbation of the Privy Council of Great Britain King in Council — the Monarch
to whom his subjects in the lesser island being personally
and strangers more had been never could have been objects
of sympathy: and who being whose condition being that of a set oppressed and helpless, men beings and possessors of different
and even opposite adverse
persuasions in matters
of the most important
points

not they themselves by possibility capable of being insensible to
such their condition never had been failed never could have been failed
to be in his eyes objects of contempt and hatred and contempt.
