Excerpt from The History of the Puritans, Vol. 2 of 5: Or Protestant Nonconformists; From the Reformation in 1517 to the Revolution in 1688 But instead of accomplishing his designs, the number of Puritans increased prodigiously in his reign, which was owing to one or other of these causes. First. To the standing firm by the constitution and laws of their brought over to them all those gentlemen in the house of commons, and in the several counties of England, who found it necessary, for the preservation of their properties, to op pose the court, and to insist upon being' governed according to law these were called state Puritans. Secondly. To their steady adherence to the doctrines of Calvin and 'the synod of Dori, in the points of predestination and grace, against the modern interpretations of Arminius and his followers. The court divines fell in with the latter, and were thought not only to deviate from the principles of the first reformers, but to attempt a coalition with the church of Rome; while most of the country clergy, being stiff in their old opinions (though otherwise well enough affected to the discipline and ceremonies of the church), were in a manner shut out from all preferment, and branded with the name of Doctrinal Puritans. Thirdly. To their pious and severe manner of life, which was at this time very extraordinary. If a man kept the sabbath and frequented sermons; if he maintained family religion, and would neither swear, nor be drunk, nor comply with the fashionable vices of the times, he was called a Puritan: this by degrees procured them the compassion. Of the sober part of the nation, who began to think it very hard, that a number of sober, industrious, and consci entions people, should be harassed out of the land, for scrupling to comply with a few indifferent ceremonies, which had no relation to the favour of God, or the practice of virtue.

Excerpt from The History of the Puritans, Vol. 1 of 5: Or Protestant Nonconformists; From the Reformation in 1517 to the Revolution in 1688 The design of the following work is to preserve the memory of those great and good men among the reformers, who lost their preferments in the church, for attempting a farther reformation of its discipline and ceremonies; and to account for the rise and progress of that separation from the national establishment which subsists to this day. To set this in a proper light it was necessary to look back upon the sad state of religion before the Reformation, and to consider the motives that induced king Henry VIII. to break with the pope, and to declare the church of England an independent body, of which himself, under Christ, was the supreme head upon earth. This was a bold attempt, at a time when all the powers of the earth were against him; and could not have succeeded without an overruling direction of Divine Providence. But as for any real amendment of the doctrines or superstitions of Popery, any farther than was necessary to secure his own supremacy, and those vast revenues of the church which he had grasped into his hands, whatever his majesty might design, he had not the honour to accomplish. The Reformation made a quick progress in the short reign of king Edward VI. who had been educated under Protestant tutors, and was himself a prodigious genius for his age; he settled the doctrines of the church, and intended a reformation of its government and laws; but his noble designs were obstructed by some temporizing bishops, who, having compiled with the impositions of king Henry VIII. were willing to bring others under the same yoke; and to keep up an alliance with the church of Rome, lest they should lose the uninterrupted succession of their characters from the apostles. The controversy that gave rise to the Separation began in this reign, on occasion of bishop Hooper's refusing to be consecrated in the Popish habits.

Excerpt from The History of the Puritans, Vol. 5: Or, Protestant Nonconformists; From the Reformation in 1517, to the Revolution in 1688, Comprising an Account of Their Principles; Their Attempts for a Farther Reformation in the Church, Their Sufferings; And the Lives and Characters of Their Most Conside In revising Dr. Toulmin's edition of this work for republication, it was found to abound with typographical errors, to a degree almost unprecedented in the present day, owing probably, to the great distance at which he resided from the place where it was printed. These have consequently been corrected; but both Mr. Neal's text, and the notes of his former edition, remain as in the last edition. Considerable alterations, however, have been made in the disposal of his supplemental matter. Valuable as the doctor's additions to Mr. Neal's History certainly are, every one must have been struck with the extreme awkwardness and injudicious method of arranging his materials; particularly as it regarded the size of his volumes; some of which comprised seven or eight hundred pages, while the fifth contained only half that number. In order to render the volumes, in this new edition, as near as possible, of an equal size, the history of the Baptists and Quakers, which Dr. Toulmin had dealt out by piecemeal, and interspersed throughout the volumes, is now collected into an unbroken narrative, and given as a Supplement to vol. V. This, it is presumed, will be generally regarded as a material improvement in various respects, and cannot fail to confer upon the present edition a decided superiority to all that have preceded it. Some important additions have also been introduced into this part of the work, by which, it is hoped, the value of the publication is still farther augmented: and, upon the whole, the work cannot fail in its present state to recommend itself to every friend of civil and religious liberty as the most valuable history of the kind that is extant in our language.

Excerpt from The History of the Puritans, Vol. 3 of 5: Or, Protestant Nonconformists; From the Reformation in 1517, to the Revolution in 1688: Comprising an Account of Their Principles; Their Attempts for a Farther Reformation in the Church; Their Sufferings; And the Lives and Characters of Their Most Conside No period of civil history has undergone a more critical examination than the last seven years of king Charles I. which was a scene of such confusion and inconsistent management between the king and parliament, that it is very difficult to discover the motives of action on either side: the king seems to have been directed by secret springs from the queen and her council of Papists, who were for advancing the prerogative above the laws, and vesting his majesty with such an absolute sovereignty as might rival his brother of France, and enable him to establish the Roman-Catholic religion in England, or some how or other blend it with the Protestant. This gave rise to the unparalleled severities of the star-chamber and high-commission, which, after twelve years triumph over the laws and liberties of the subject, brought on a fierce and bloody war, and after the loss of above a hundred thousand lives, ended in the sacrifice of the king himself, and the subversion of the whole constitution. Though all men had a veneration for the person of the king, his ministers had rendered themselves justly obnoxious, not only by Setting up a new form of government at home, but by extending their jurisdiction to a neighbouring kingdom, under the government of distinct laws, and inclined to a form of church-discipline very different from the English: this raised such a storm in the north, as distressed his majesty's administration; exhausted his treasure; drained all his arbitrary springs of supply; and (after an intermission of twelve years) reduced him to the necessity of returning to the constitution, and calling a parliament; but when the public grievances came to be opened, there appeared such a collection of ill-humours, and so general a distrust between the king and his two houses, as threatened all the mischief and desolation that followed. Each party laid the blame on the other, and agreed in nothing but in throwing off the odium of the civil war from themselves.

It reflects high and lasting honour on this ecclesiastical history, that if the author were convicted by a Warburton, a Maddox, and 3 Grey, of partiality, it could be only such a partiality as might arise from a zeal against tyrants and oppressors. The work has, on the whole, a liberal cast; it is on the side of civil and religious liberty; it is in favour of the rights of Englishmen, against unconstitutional prerogative; it is in favour of the rights of conscience, against an imperious and persecuting hierarchy, whether Episcopal or Presbyterian; it is ia' favour of the great interests of mankind; and, to adopt the words of a most able and liberal writer A history that is written without any regard to the chief privileges of human nature, and without feelings, especially of the moral kind, must lose a cousi derable part of its instruction and energy.
