To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
68 RESTORATION AND RETALIATION as ever, although in both Houses there were some who spoke for toleration. The Second Act made the penalties somewhat less severe, but it was more vexatious in its provisions, and made the position of Nonconformists still worse.
In March 1672, Charles once more tried his hand at toleration by publishing a Declaration of In- dulgence. Protestant Dissenters were to be allowed to meet in public for worship, Romanists in private. The House of Commons at once requested... the King to revoke the Declaration as unconstitutional. They told him that his claim " to suspend penal statutes in matters ecclesiastical " was ultra vires : " no such power was ever claimed or exercised by any of your Majesty's predecessors. " Next year it passed the Test Act, 1 which was as clearly directed against Roman Catholics as the Five Mile Act had been against Protestant Dissenters. It enacted that in future " no one should be admitted to any office or public position unless he abjured the doctrine of Transubstantiation.
