Synopsis

Excerpt from A Short Defence of the Whigs: Against the Imputations Attempted to Be Cast Upon Them During the Late Election for Westminster

The truth and justice of such imputations deserve most seriously to be examined; be cause, cast into the shade the character of the Revolution itself; and leave us withoutany standard for British freedom, but that which has been planted within a few years by hot, undisciplined Reformers, the majority of whom, though, most probably, honest and well intentioned, have, by their violences, repeatedly disappointed, and, in the end, rendered almost desperate, the great cause, which they will yet allow no others, who fall. Short of their own visionary theories, to support.
