Synopsis
Excerpt from An Ecclesiastical History of Scotland, Vol. 3 of 4: From the Introduction of Christianity to the Present Time
Many persons in all parts of the country were averse to the Covenant, but few had the courage to Oppose it openly. The committee which sat at Edinburgh decided everything accord ing to their own discretion, and the royal authority was unable to protect those who remained faithful to the crown. The jurisdiction of the bishops was practically at an end the Perth articles could not safely be observed even by those who were willing to conform to them and the party, which a few weeks before had made it a chief accusation against the prelates that they sought to enforce measures destitute of the proper civil and ecclesiastical authority, now openly forbade obedience to the laws which had received the sanction of the Church and State.
