• " TO THE KING'S atosT EXCELLENT MAJESTY.
'" May it please your Majesty,—We, your I`;lajesty's dutiful
and loyal subjects, the Bishops and Clergy of the .Scottish
Episcopal Church, beg leave humbly to approach your'Royal
Presence, with expressions of our most heartfelt attachment
and loyalty to your Majesty's sacred person and government.
" So many years have passed away since Scotland was hon-
oured by the presence of its Sovereign that to behold your Ma-
jesty in the palace of the long line of our ancient Monarchs__
your Majesty's royal ancestors—is, to ua, as it must be to
.every
true Seotchinan, a matter of pride and exultation ; and in this
house, more especially, do we feel ourselves prompted by these
emotions, to declare, that-within the wide compass of your
Majesty's dominions are no where to be found hearts more loyal
than those which beat in the breasts of the Scottish Epis-
copalians. •
" The devoted attachment uniformly.displayed by the Mem-
bers'Of out Church to him whom they have considered as their
legitimate Sovereign, is so well known to you! Majesty, that it
would be waste of time to repeat it here ; and is, indeed, amply
vouched by the lowly station which we, her Bilops,, now, hold
in civil society. Your Majesty likewise knows that ow relhticus
principles and forms of worship are thesame• with those of the
Church of England, from which, indeed, we twice derived our
Episcopacy, when it had been lost at home ; .and whilat we arc
sincerely grateful for the toleration of these principles and.the
free exercise of the rites of our worship, we feel thank is to
your ,Maiesty's gracious consideration, and that of your Royal
Father, that our gratitude is in a peculiar manner'due.
" We would not occupy too much of your Majesty's time by
protestations of our loyalty ; but we Must lieglesiersolenutly.,so
declare, in your royal presence, that viewing, in your Majesty's
sacred person, the lineal descendant of the Royal Family of
Scotland, and the legitiMate possessor of the British throne, we •
feel to your Majesty that devoted attachment which ouiprin-
ciples assure us is due to our rightful Sovereign ; and that
should evil days ever come upon your Majesty's Royallfoose
of Brunswick, (which may God of his infinite mercy avert) the
House of Brunswick will find that the Scottish Episcopalians
arc ready to endure for it as much as they have suffered for the.
House of Stuart, and with heart and hand to convince the
world, that in their breasts a firm attachment to the religion of
their fathers is inseparably continued with unshaken loyalty to
their King.
" That your Majesty may long reign over a happy and united
people, to maintain that peace and prosperity, which the wis,
dom of your Majesty's Counsels, and the vigour of your arms
have, by the providence of God, achieved for them, is the ear-
nest prayer of " Your Majesty's
" Most dutiful and loyal Subjects."
