So likewise, if the house of Lancaster, or even theposterity of Cromwell, had been at this day seated upon the throne ofEngland, we should have been as little concerned to enquire how thefounder of the family came there. [Footnote: Book VI. Chap. 3. Since Ihave quoted Mr Archdeacon Paley upon one subject, I cannot buttranscribe, from his excellent work, a distinguished passage insupport of the Christian Revelation. After shewing, in decent butstrong terms, the unfairness of the INDIRECT attempt...s of moderninfidels to unsettle and perplex religious principles, andparticularly the irony, banter, and sneer, of one whom he politelycalls 'an eloquent historian', the archdeacon thus expresses himself: 'Seriousness is not constraint of thought; nor levity, freedom. Everymind which wishes the advancement of truth and knowledge, in the mostimportant of all human researches, must abhor this licentiousness, asviolating no less the laws of reasoning than the rights of decency. There is but one description of men to whose principles it ought to betolerable.
