Island of my fathers! bemerci- .*' ful, as thou expectest mercy : but be careful of the '■^ language of Revelation.*' Recall to your mind f the . '' day * 4 Co!. IS. f 3 Co'. 7. 290 " day of your ordination in the Church of St. John " Lateran, a day memorable to you as the most awful *' of your life, when you solemnly vowed, before the *' great altar of that Church in the presence of your " Maker, that you would never sacrifice one iota of *' your religious opinions^ or any of those canons of "... the Universal Church, ordinances of sanctity, in- *' stitutions of Holiness, and rites necessarily and inva- " riably connected with our faith, for any earthly '* consideration." Indeed, Rev. Sir, revelation is too awful a subject to trifle with so flippantly. You have told your countrymen truly, what you or they could not have known without revelation : that two necessary requisites yz^r^? divino for Bishops and Priests are canonical ordination, and canonical mission, * The spiritual qualifications of ordination and mission, which are necessary for ** obtaining a Benefice or a Bishop- ** rick must be independent of the State." You go on in the same sentence with revolting inconsistency, and with an indecent and a profane assumption of the insufficiency of a divine institution to its own ends, which directly leads to the An ti- Christian con- sequence, that Christ had not left his Church under such a Government, as would insure her against the world and satan unto the end of rime : " but those *' qualifications are not in the present state cf Ireland ^' sufficient without some degree of temporal pov/er." You then put questions, which are either lamentably unintelligible, or supinely ignorant.
