VII Expenses — The French tyrants if they had no justification had at least
self preservation for an excuse. The Englishman, who I suppose
is not to be called a tyrant — the Englishman, then, and
his accomplices, in what subterfuge will they find so much

turned loose again to prey upon the community — upon a
community from which they had so justly and so necessarily
been expelled? — Corrupted, as you yourself alledge — corrupted
