Whigs and Revolution

6)

Well then—while a British and Irish King is a British
and Irish King — if the epithet be beyond all example
a clumsy and inconvenient one let him to whom the language
is indebted it bear the responsibility of it — while
a British and Irish King to speak of him accord in the
only terms in which according to himself in Parliament
he can be correctly spoken of as a British-and-Irish King
on what supposition can the first part of the case
ever happen? By forcing all or any Church of England
or Church of Scotland or Independent Protestants to
declare themselves Popish Catholics what is he to gain — what
had does any Member of the House of Lords to gain what has
any other proprietor or Commander or cheapner of a any
Seat of that the other House to Gain? Of that other House
so happily because unexceptionably called the Commons
House so unexceptionably because the knowledge of every
body so falsely called as often as it is called the House
of Representation implies choice and
the people if any thing more than a microscopic minority
or are spoken as considered as the choosers? In a
word if the people without power political or physical
were on such an occasion worth taking into account
what is there that twelve out of the fifteen millions
would have to gain by the change or could hope to
gain by it — not to speak of the other 4 millions.
