Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Policy of the Church of Rome Promoted by the Abuse of the Royal Supremacy, and the Remedy in Convocation: A Letter to the Rev. Dr. Jeremie, Sub-Dean of Lincoln, and Regius Professor of Divinity in the University of Cambridge, in Reference to the Approaching Election of Proctors
I am not going to dwell upon the common objections to the revival of synods, arising from the fears of dissension and the like. Not that I think that such apprehensions are not deserving of respectful consideration, but because it appears to me that the time is come when they must be overborne by the overwhelming necessity of the case. And, believing as I do, that the Royal Supremacy has, of late years, not only been abused, but the very purpose for which it was restored at the Reformation perverted to the contrary, I would invite your especial attention to this particular fact.
