Reply to Craftsman pamphlet on royal secrecy and trust
A correspondingly harsh critique denounces the Craftsman for publishing private royal passages claiming to expose frailties in the royal circle. The writer asserts the alleged disclosures are dishonest, urges apologies from the author, and defends the Honorable Person and the royal family against libel and baseless insinuations. Naples notes and Vatican-Imperial tensions accompany the main quarrel, with broader political intrigue and clerical matters shaping the discourse.
