About this Item

31, [1 blank] pp. With the half title, as issued. Disbound, mild toning. Else Very Good. Caner, who devoted much of his religious career to defending orthodox Episcopacy in opposition to his fellow New England ministers Jonathan Mayhew and Charles Chauncy, laments "the loss of our Head, our Royal Master, the political Father of his People." He praises the new King, George III, and recommends that all serve him, "duly considering whose Authority he hath." Unlike his colleague Samuel Cooper, who also preached this day to Governor Bernard and Council, Caner tarries not at all on the theme that the Monarch's powers are limited by the British Constitution. Evans 8811. Sabin 10684n. ESTC W27529. Seller Inventory # 37985
