Were I Not A King,

God Gives Not Kings The Stile Of Gods In Vaine, For On His Throne His Sceptre Do They Sway; And As Their Subjects Ought Them To Obey, So Kings Should Feare And Serve Their God Againe.

If You Aim At A Scottish Presbytery, It Agreeth As Well With Monarchy, As God And The Devil. ... No Bishop, No King! I Will Make Them Conform Themselves, Or Else I Will Harry Them Out Of The Land, Or Else Do Worse.

I Acknowledge The Roman Church To Be Our Mother Church, Although Defiled With Some Infirmities And Corruptions...let [the Papists] Assure Themselves, That, As I Am A Friend Of Their Persons, If They Be Good Subjects, So Am I A Vowed Enemy, And Do Denounce Mortal War To Their Errors.

The State Of Monarchy Is The Supremest Thing Upon Earth: For Kings Are Not Only God's Lieutenants Upon Earth, And Sit Upon God's Throne, But Even By God Himself They Are Called Gods.

I Will Govern According To The Common Weal, But Not According To The Common Will.
