Note : "
It so chanced that ,
not long after the accession of the house of Hanover ,
some of the brown ,
that is the German or Norway ,
rats ,
were first brought over to this country (
in some timber as is said );
and being much stronger than the black ,
or ,
till then ,
the common ,
rats ,
they in many places quite extirpated the latter .
The word (
both the noun and the verb to rat )
was first ,
as we have seen ,
leveled at the converts to the government of George the First ,
but has by degrees obtained a wider meaning ,
and come to be applied to any sudden and mercenary change in politics ." --
