Finge deo; rebusque veni non asper egenis.
Æneid. Lib. VIII.
[181] The great civil war broke out in 1641-2, and the king was dethroned in 1648.
[182] "The Freeholder's Choice, or a Letter of Advice concerning Elections."
[183] New Test of the Church of England's Loyalty.
[185] The Declaration of Indulgence.
[186] The Convocation.
[187] The adherence of the church of England to the interests of James, while he was an exile at Brussels, and the Bill of Exclusion against him was in dependence, is here, as in other places, made the subject of panegyric.

[188] The church of England complained, with great reason, of the coldness which they experienced from James, in whose behalf they had exerted themselves so successfully.
