To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was the contention of the Covenanters, on the other hand, that the right of summoning Assemblies belonged to the Church itself, and that they had enjoyed this right till James had unconstitutionally taken it from them. In the Assemblies that had met in the years succeeding the Refor- mation, the nobles and lairds, present in the capacity of elders, had outnumbered the ministers themselves ; but, in the times that followed, the nobles as a body had broken with the Church and had ceased to fre...quent its Assemblies. At the present moment, however, ministers and nobility were united as they had been in the fervour of the Reformation ; and it was in the interest of both parties that they should act in common. As arranged by the Tables, therefore, each Presbytery sent two or three ministers and one elder as their representatives in the Assembly — the elders consisting mainly of nobles or other persons of good estate in the country. That a certain amount of coercion, direct and indirect, was used in manning the Assembly was inevitable in the state of public opinion.
