Apparently intended as a serious analysis of Ireland and its people, it proposes the complete suppression of the Irish people, the expropriation of all the land, exchange of the Irish among counties where they will work for English landlords, slaughter of cattle, and taxing the Irish to pay for the military that will suppress them. Argues that the Irish are descended from the barbarian Scythians and that resisting English law indicates that the Irish are \“the lowest form of savages\” (Hadfield and Maley ed., xx). Treated as a utopia in Sarah Hogan, Other Englands: Utopia, Capital, and Empire in an Age of Transition. Stanford, CA: Stanford University Press, 2018.\
