   • 1784, Jonathan Swift, ‎ Thomas Sheridan, The Works of the Rev. Dr. Jonathan Swift, page 256:

     I do not find how his excellency can be justly censured for favouring none but high-church, high-flyers, termagants, laudists, sacheverellians, tip-top-gallon-men, jaocobites, tantivys, anti-hanoverians, friends to popery and the pretender and to arbitrary power, disobligers of England, breakers of DEPENDENCY, inflamers of quarrels between the two nations, public incendiaries, enemies to the king and kingdoms, haters of TRUE protestants, laurel-men, annists, complainers of the nation's poverty, ormondians, iconoclasts, anti-glorious-memorists, anti-revolutioners, white-rosalists, tenth-a-junians, and the like; when, by a fair state of the account, the balance, I conceive, seems to lie on the other side.
