A34948 A serious expostulation with that party in Scotland, commonly known by the name of Whigs wherein is modestly and plainly laid open the inconsistency of their practices I. With the safety of humane society, II. With the nature of the Christian religion, III. Their two covenants are historically related, and prov'd to be no sufficient warrant for what they do, IV. Their new doctrine of a pretended forfeiture, is prov'd to be groundless. Craufurd, James, 17th cent. 1682 (1682) Wing C6865; ESTC R4965 39,666 64

covenant_n be_v a_o new_a thing_n never_o hear_v of_o by_o his_o majesty_n be_v royal_a ancestor_n who_o do_v all_o take_v a_o oath_n at_o their_o instalment_n and_o as_o his_o title_n to_o the_o crown_n differ_v in_o nothing_o from_o his_o father_n and_o his_o grandfather_n so_o ought_v his_o coronation_n oath_n to_o have_v be_v likewise_o the_o same_o but_o if_o we_o take_v upon_o we_o to_o

be_v extort_a from_o he_o during_o the_o rebellion_n this_o be_v certain_a that_o have_v our_o representative_n in_o parliament_n consider_v the_o covenant_n either_o as_o a_o part_n of_o his_o

upon_o a_o breach_n of_o the_o coronation_n oath_n because_o as_o i_o already_o observe_v the_o king_n have_v his_o crown_n by_o inheritance_n not_o by_o election_n and_o his_o right_n be_v of_o a_o more_o ancient_a date_n can_v never_o depend_v upon_o what_o follow_v the_o king_n be_v oblige_v to_o be_v a_o just_a prince_n and_o we_o to_o be_v dutiful_a subject_n before_o that_o pretend_a

i_o confess_v the_o king_n oath_n be_v a_o further_a confirmation_n of_o his_o duty_n and_o if_o he_o be_v guilty_a of_o any_o such_o breach_n it_o will_v much_o aggravate_v his_o sin_n but_o god_n before_o who_o tribunal_n he_o must_v stand_v can_v only_o call_v he_o to_o a_o account_n for_o it_o he_o be_v the_o minister_n of_o god_n act_n by_o his_o immediate_a commission_n and_o he_o alone_o

fit_a to_o remove_v he_o remember_v that_o the_o great_a injury_n and_o breach_n of_o trust_n be_v to_o god_n who_o employ_v he_o but_o suppose_v a_o forfeiture_n how_o come_v the_o people_n to_o

require_v a_o extraordinary_a remedy_n as_o at_o present_a in_o portugal_n yet_o even_o where_o the_o king_n insufficiency_n make_v he_o unable_a to_o govern_v subject_n be_v not_o free_v from_o

able_a to_o prove_v a_o breach_n upon_o the_o king_n part_n as_o we_o be_v able_a thence_o to_o infer_v a_o forfeiture_n his_o majesty_n do_v swear_v to_o govern_v according_a to_o the_o fundamental_a
