Excerpt from Some Ethical Questions of Peace and War, With Special: Reference to Ireland

Of my forbears, moreover, none, as far as I can learn, ever took service of any kind under the English, or got any special favour from them. Whatever pay they received was the price of farm produce; and came ultimately, to them as to their neighbours, then as now, from Britain. In that sense I was brought up on British gold, and should deem it shame not to recognise the Obligation. Otherwise I owe England nothing, except fair play; nor have I the least hope, or desire, of any special favour from her.
