{142} A name under which Thomas Vaughan wrote. {145a} Revelations xxii. 11: “He which is filthy, let him be filthy still;” “phrase of the will,” being Scripture phrase, of either Testament, applied to every occasion, and often in the most unbecoming manner. {145b} He did not kneel when he received the Sacrament. {146a} His inward lights. {146b} Predestination. {147a} _Vide_ Don Quixote.—S. {147b} Swift borrowed this from the customs of Moronia—Fool’s Land—in Joseph Hall’s _Mundus Alter et Idem_. {148a} The Presbyterians objected to church-music, and had no organs in their meeting-houses. {148b} Opposed to the decoration of church walls. {148c} Baptism by immersion. {148d} Preaching. {151a} “This wicked Proteus shall escape the chain.”—_Francis’s Horace_. {151b} Lib. de Aëre, Locis, et Aquis.—S. {152a} Charles II., by the Act of Uniformity, which drove two thousand ministers of religion, including some of the most devout, in one day out of the Church of England. {152b} “Including Scaliger’s,” is Swift’s note in the margin. The sixth sense was the “common sense” which united and conveyed to the mind as one whole the information brought in by the other five. Common sense did not originally mean the kind of sense common among the people generally. A person wanting in common sense was one whose brain did not properly combine impressions brought into it by the eye, the ear, &c. {153} Reference here is to the exercise by James II. of a dispensing power which illegally protected Roman Catholics, and incidentally Dissenters also; to the consequent growth of feeling against the Roman Catholics. “Jack on a great horse and eating custard” represents what was termed the occasional conformity of men who “blasphemed custard through the nose,” but complied with the law that required them to take Sacrament in the Church of England as qualification for becoming a Lord Mayor or holding any office of public authority. {155} Père d’Orleans.—S. {157} Trazenii, Pausan. L. 2.—S. {160a} Henry VIII. {160b} “Fidei Defensor.” {161a} Edward VI. {161b} Queen Mary. {161c} Queen Elizabeth. {162a} James I. {162b} Episcopacy. {162c} Charles I. {164a} Cromwell. {164b} Charles II. {164c} James II. {164d} William III. {165a} High Church against Dissent.
