Warning to Cousin on Public Revenue and Monarchical Power
An aged letter urges the cousin to resist rapid ministerial control and to avoid an early inquiry into public revenue. It warns of bloodshed in Scotland, urges a cautious path toward commissions, and advises pliant appointments for supporters while condemning past promises and praising economy in public spending. The text views the House of Stuart as plagued by curse and calamity, urging strategic manipulation of finances and loyalty to the royal line.
