To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
their conduct on the suhject of the popish plot was so far from being the cause of the hatred borne to them, that it was not even used as a topic of accusation against them.
In order to keep up that spirit in the nation, which was thought to be manifested in the addresses, his majesty ordered the declaration, to which allusion was made in the last chapter, to be published, interwoven with a history of the Rye House plot, which is said to have been drawn by Dr.
Spratt, bishop of Rochester. The p...rincipal drift of this pub- lication was, to load the memory of Sidney and Russell, and to blacken the character of the duke of Monmouth, by wickedly confounding the consultations holden by them, with the plot for assassinating the late king, and in this object it seems in a great measure to have succeeded. He also caused to be published an attestation of his brother's having died a Roman catholic, together with two papers, drawn up by him, in favour of that persuasion. This is generally ccmsidered to have been a very ill-advised instance of zeal; but probably James thought, that at a time when people seemed to be so in love with his power, he might safely venture to indulge himself in a display of his attachment to his religion; and perhaps^ too, it might be thought good policy to àiow that a prince, who had been so highly complimented as Charles had been, for the restoration and protection of the church, had, in truth, been a catholic, and thus to inculcate an opinion, that the church of England might not only be safe, but highly favoured, under the reign of a popish prince.
