Hampden and Cromwell remained; and with them remained the EvilGenius of the House of Stuart. The tide of public affairs waseven now on the turn. The King had resolved to change theecclesiastical constitution of Scotland, and to introduce intothe public worship of that kingdom ceremonies which the greatbody of the Sco...ts regarded as Popish.
