But however, I will give them any system of law orregal government, from William the Conqueror to this present time, to trywhether they can tally it with their late models; excepting only that ofCromwell, whom perhaps they will reckon for a monarch.
If the present ministry, and so great a majority in the Parliament andKingdom, be only a faction, it must appear by some actions which answersthe idea we usually conceive from that word. Have they abused theprerogatives of the prince, or invaded the... rights and liberties of thesubject? Have they offered at any dangerous innovations in Church orState? Have they broached any doctrines of heresy, rebellion or tyranny?Have any of them treated their sovereign with insolence, engrossed andsold all her favours, or deceived her by base, gross misrepresentationsof her most faithful servants? These are the arts of a faction, andwhoever has practised them, they and their followers must take up withthe name.
It is usually reckoned a Whig principle to appeal to the people; but thatis only when they have been so wise as to poison their understandingsbeforehand: Will they now stand to this appeal, and be determined bytheir _vox populi_, to which side their title of faction belongs?
