Things have looked better, during the last five or six years, than they have done since Cromwell first put foot in Ireland.

We have begun to hope for justice.

Tyrconnell has stood up for us, and, with the goodwill of James, has gained many concessions.

We have now what we never had before, an Irish army.

The land thieves have been fairly alarmed, for they have seen that the long delayed justice will be done us at last.
