Rh tawny complexioned, turned of 60 years old. He had been a papist.

giddy headed young fellow, with some wit, about 25 years old. He is not worth mentioning.

has abundance of wit, but too much seized with vanity and self-conceit; he is affable, familiar, and very brave; towards 50 years old. The vainest old fool alive.

of the finest gentlemen in the army, with a head fitted for the cabinet, as well as the camp; is very modest, vigilant, and sincere; a man of honour and honesty [in all directly otherwise], without pride or affectation; wears his own hair, is plain in his dress and manners; toward 60 years old. A deceitful, hypocritical, factious knave; a damnable hypocrite, of no religion.

is a very wellshaped black man; is brave; but, by reason of a hesitation in his speech, wants expression. Married Mrs. Villiers, and got a good estate by her: is turned of 40 years old. An honest good natured gentleman, and has much distinguished himself as a soldier.
