Upon thefe Principles and Clatms, among others, was. The Roinaa Hierarchy built. And if I am not mif'taken, the fame Prin ciples and Claims, admitted in their utmofi; Latitude, and in all their Confequences, will at all Times be fu?icicnt; under a craf ty Management, to ef'tabli-ih, not an Empire within an Empire, (a Moni'ter in Govern men't which never did or can exifi, ) bug Saeerdotal Empire, which will infalli it draw all Power to itieli, and render the C1 vil Magif'trate its Minii'ter and Dependent. For this Reafon I doinot think it unbecom' ing any Man to hear his Tefiimony againi't thofe Principles andclaims, whenever they make their Appearance in the World; ci pecially when Authors of high Difimction make themfelves anfwerable for them.
