The said discourse likewise contains various political remarks and calculations referring to many parts of Christendom; with observations of the number of the people of England, and of its growth in populousness and trade. The vanity of late fears and jealousies being shown, the author doth on grounds of nature predict the happy future state of the realm. the end of the discourse, there is a casuistical discussion of the obligation to the king, his heirs and successors, wherein many of the moral offices of absolute and unconditional loyalty are asserted. Before the discourse, is a large preface, giving an account of the whole work, with an index of the principal matters. Also, the obligation resulting from the oath of supremacy to assist and defend the preheminence or prerogative of the dispensative power belonging to the king, his heirs and successors. In the asserting of that power, various historical passages occurring in the usurpation after the year 1641. are mentioned, and an account is given of the progress of the power of dispensing, as to acts of Parliament about religion since the Reformation, and of diverse judgments of parliaments, declaring their approbation of the exercise of such power, and particularly in what punishment by disability or incapacity.
