No amount of cajolery, and no attempts at ethical or social seduction, can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred for the T...ory Party.... So far as I am concerned they are lower than vermin.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
The bright old day now dawns again; the cry runs through the the land, In England there shall be dear bread--in Ireland, swor...d and brand; And poverty, and ignorance, shall swell the rich and grand, So, rally round the rulers with the gentle iron hand, Of the fine old English Tory days; Hail to the coming time!LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
I'll sing you a new ballad, and I'll warrant it first-rate, Of the days of that old gentleman who had that old estate;... When they spent the public money at a bountiful old rate On ev'ry mistress, pimp, and scamp, at ev'ry noble gate, In the fine old English Tory times;LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

The worst feature in the history of those years, is, that no man spake for the Indian. When the Dutch, or the French, or the Engli...sh royalist disagreed with the Colony, there was always found a Dutch or French, or tory party,--an earnest minority,--to keep things from extremity.

As a Whig may be defined to be a lover of liberty though without renouncing monarchy; and a friend to the settlement in the protestant line.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
The Tory camp is now in sight, And there he cowers within his den;... He hears our shouts, he dreads the fight, He fears, and flies from Marion's men.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
