To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
207 might constitutionally dispense with bad laws, but not with good laws. The absurdity of such a distinction it is needless to expose. The doctrine which seems to have been generally received in the House of Commons was, that the dispensing power >vas confined to secular mat- ters, and did not extend to laws enacted for the security of the established religion. Yet, as the king was supreme head of the Church, it should seem that, if he possessed the dispensing power at all, he might well poss...ess that power where the Church was concerned. When the courtiers on the other side attempted to point out the bounds of this prerogative, they were not more success- fol than the Opposition had been.# The truth is, that the dispensing power was a great anomaly in politics. It was utterly inconsistent in the- ory with the principles of mixed government, but it had ^own up in times when people troubled themselves little about theories. It had not been very grossly abused in practice. It had therefore been tolerated, and had gradu- ally acquired a kind of prescription.
