Excerpt from Vindication of Ecclesiastical Establishments
What is proposed will, of course, admit of due attention being paid to any thing that can be regarded as new in the objections which are urged in the present day. It will also admit of my presenting such auxiliary views of the argu ment as have occurred to my own mind. And it is hoped that nothing can be understood as forbidding me to advert - assuredly not with a disposition to retaliate, but in the spirit of such self-defence as is consistent with Christian cha rity - to the attacks which have been recently made on the Clergy of that national church to which I have the honour to belong.
