One example of ethical appeal in "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift is when the narrator argues that his proposal will reduce the number of poor children in Ireland and benefit the economy. He plays on the reader's sense of morality and compassion by presenting his solution as a way to solve the problem of poverty.
