Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Royal Supremacy Over the Church
A twelvemonth had not elapsed since the appeal made by the Author of the following pages to the British sense of justice on behalf of the grievously oppressed Church of which it is his happiness to be an humble minister, when circumstances occurred than which none could have more strikingly illustrated both the despotic character which the Supremacy has assumed since its transfer from the hands of royalty to those of the representative of the democracy, -and the imperative necessity of adopting some such mea sures as those suggested by him, for a constitutional exercise of that supremacy, if the Church of England is to be saved from a state of degradation similar to that to which the Greek Church has sunk down by her servile submission to the Caesaro-episcopate of the Low Empire.
