Excerpt from An Historical Account of the Triumphant Spirit of the Whigs: Briefly Shewing the Rise and Progress of the Covenanted Work of Reformation, the Defection of the Kirk of Scotland Therefrom, and the Firm Adherence of the Seceding Brethren Thereto, With an Appendix, Containing Sundry Excerpts From Several Godly Letters My ingenious worthy Friend, the Author of, A Comparison of the Spirit of the Whigs and Jacobites, lately published, being the Substance of a Discourse, delivered to an Audience of Gentlemen in Edinburgh, December 24th, 1745, has given as a rhetorical and polite Description of the Principles and Spirit of Whiggism, which distinguishes the Genius and Spirit of all its genuine Votaries, from that of the Jacobites, their Opposers. The Author has stated the Difference between these two Sides so judiciously, and shewn, that the Whig Principle is the original Right and Prerogative of Mankind, intends the Good of all Men, which he proves by strong and invincible Arguments, that, upon Reflection, one can no longer remain neutral, but must needs take Part with the Whigs.
