Answer: Swift describes how landlords have "devoured most of the parents"
Explanation:
In<em> A Modest Proposal</em>, Swift's satirical essay, the author discusses all the hardships that Ireland faces under British rule. Parents cannot make ends meet in order to feed their children. As a solution, the author presents an idea that parents should sell their children as food to rich landowners in England. These landowners have already "devoured" the parents by denying them their rights and diminishing them.

The author made that sentence into personification because they acted as if death was a man, that everyone knew.
