The Scene of which Murthers was ever so deeply imprest on the English, that, though they were sufficiently enclined to be generous where they found the Irish resolute and gallant, yet they never took any considerable City, Fort, or Castle by Agreement, but it was con∣stantly inserted (amongst the Articles) that the benefit of whatever they allow'd should not extend to any that had been Guilty of mur∣thering the English, or adhering to them since the 23 of October, 1641. Nor to any Officer or Souldier that had taken away the Lives of any of the English, or others after quarter given, or to such as sate in the first General Assembly or Council, or acted upon any Com∣missions

or Powers derived from either; and that all (who com∣manded in the first year of the Rebellion) should be liable to a Trial at Law for any Action committed since the 23 of Octob. 1641. But how far these Provisoes were observ'd, when his Majestie's gracious Declaration the 30th of Novemb. 1660. (for the Settlement of each Interests) came in force, is better understood by the Records of the Age, then to be descanted on now.
