“A zealous admirer of the British Constitution in Church and State, being generally pleased with Mr. Southey’s ‘Book of the Church,’ and professing himself quite delighted with the summary* on the last page of that work, and entertaining no doubt that the writer of that page really felt what he wrote, and, consequently, would be ready, if he had an opportunity, to support the sentiments there set forth, has therefore been anxious that Mr. Southey should have a seat in the ensuing Parliament; and having a little interest, has so managed that he is at this moment in possession of that seat under this single injunction:—
“Ut sustineat firmiter, strenue et continuo, quæ ipse bene docuit esse sustinenda.”
