And so the inevitable development of the cosmic drama continued in history. It had been supposed that the authority of the Church had passed to the king. But with the close of the Puritan Revolution in England the great end which had been attained that end by the accomplishment of which, as has been rightly insisted, the restoration of Charles II. Was alone made possible was, that the predominance of Parliament in the Church and over the bishops had been in turn substituted for that of the king.... 2 This was the beginning of the final stage. In the second Revolution, completed twenty-eight years later with the flight of James II. , and producing as its result the Toleration Act and the Bill of Rights, there be- gan in England the modern era of parliamentary government by the system of mutually opposing parties. In this final transition, the steps of which carry us down into our own time, the inevitable end was already in sight. For it had become at last only a matter of time when there must necessarily be accomplished in England the emancipation, now in turn, of the religious consciousness from the control of Parliament, in a parliamentary system in which all the leading parties in the State were necessarily represented.
