Radicalism not dangerous
§.10
III Experience
II Ireland
2 Sheffield against Reform
As the good conduct During this long period of probation, to exemplar the exemplary and unexampled
good conduct of the associated volunteers, the noble
Lord his with a that evidence that which is so honourable to himself bears that testimony which has been already brought to
view. But at the next step they entered upon the forbidden
ground of parliamentary reform.
How light in his experience is when
set against imagination no one a man could scarcely have conceived
had not his Lordship himself informed us.
Speaking of the Roman Catholics who he says about the time of
the peace "were already half the number of those who latterly appeared
in arms", in a year or less he adds they might be sent
one, for the Protestants were gradually quitting the service,
and the only apology for those who c might be — i.e. in his Lordship's opinion were, for it is of a period which at the time
of his writing was past
that his Lordship speaks (he continues) goes on to say for
those who continued after the peace was that they meant
to prevent the volunteer arms from falling into more dangerous
hands, and to counterbalance the Roman Catholics. The
latter appeared sure of their plan and seemed already
to exult.
The For aught appears the volunteers were had still the
military possession of the whole country: and in 1784 within a year in this possessing
army
after the peace they were already ten to one. They being
then in possession of the country, what then was to be expected
of them further? That they should do as they had all along
done? If no: but then they should do as they had
never done: that they should do as had been done by
others. At what time? 140 years before, at a time of
general barbarism.
