| | Indeed, two of his heroes (United Irishman Wolfe Tone and Lord Edward Fitzgerald) could justly be accused of criminal naivety. | | | Wolfe Tone, Lord Edward Fitzgerald, Archibold Rowan Hamilton and William Drennan were once regarded as typical products of the Age of Reason, a verdict reinforced by clerical condemnation after 1798. | | | The tragedy ended with Fitzgerald dying of a septic wound, Tone of a self-inflicted cut throat and 30,000 others massacred in a sectarian bloodbath. |

| | In the first category is included the name of my dear friend, Lord Edward Fitzgerald, than whom I have not known a more high-spirited or single-minded man. In poor Edward there was united the most tender and affectionate heart, with the firmest courage and the most disinterested patriotism. | | | The last time I saw him was at his house of Rathcoffey, in the county of Kildare, where I went for the purpose of introducing to him Lady Campbell, the daughter of Lord Edward Fitzgerald, who was on a visit at Lyons. | | | When the time arrived, however, this arrangement was rendered null and void by the obstinate refusal of Lord Ellenbo-rough to act in a cabinet which should sanction the appointment of Curran as Attorney-General for Ireland. |
