A vindication of the proceedings of the Convention of the Estates in Scotland, : wherein the lawfulness and power of that meeting is cleared. The original of government, and the nature of our monarchy in particular is enquired into. Our laws concerning the Kings absolute power, and the texts of scripture for a jure-divino-monarchy are examined. Our allegiance to King James is stated, and whatsoever can be urged against the present settlement of the crown resolved. The unreasonableness of our present discontents, and the necessity of an intire adherence to their Majesties, King William and Queen Mary, against a popish, barbarous, and cruel army of Irish and French, is pathetically held forth and demonstrated. Lisenced [sic] May 29. 1689. J. Fraser
