by one means or other of placing his prisoners the persons
committed to his charge upon a level at least in this respect

that after the struggle he has maintained,
he has the comfort to satisfy himself, consolation to reflect,
that

establishment, a place in which the partisan
affections can find so little reason for attaching cause ground <add>to hold to
itself attach itself to , is not perhaps any where to be found.
