Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Essays, Doctrinal and Practical, by Fifteen Clergymen
Under modified forms of this despotic conception of the State and the Church we find constitutional monarchies with hereditary succession, and Protes tant churches with apostolic succession; but through all there runs the fundamental principle. That the State rests upon the sovereign, and the Church upon the priesthood; and that the cathedrals and convents and schools belong to the Church and not to the people.
