But when a statute, in defiance of all principles of law, makes the mere practice of a religious rite punishable as an act of treason, it is the paltriest verbal quibble to say that it is not a re ligious persecution. Under such a definition, all of Alva s atrocities in the Netherlands could be justified, and the Inquisition would take the modest place of a legitimate engine of the State. " Douglas Campbell, The Puritan in Holland, England, and America, vol. Ii. , pp. IIO-U2 (by permission of M...essrs. Harper & Brothers). In the elections for the New Parliament [1661] the zeal for church and king swept all hope of moderation and compromise before it. ... The new members were yet better Churchmen than loyalists. ... At the opening of their session they ordered every member to receive the communion, and the League and Covenant to be solemnly burned by the common hangman in Westminster Hall. The bishops were restored to their seats in the House of Lords. The conference at the Savoy between the Episcopalians and Presbyterians broke up in anger The strongholds of this party were the corporations of the boroughs ; and an attempt was made to drive them from these by the Test and Corporation Act, which required a reception of the communion according to the rites of the Anglican Church, a renunciation of the League and Covenant, and a declaration that it was unlawful on any grounds to take up arms against the King, before admission to municipal offices.
