Excerpts on Oaths and Sailors from 1704 era discourse
A dense expository piece discusses royal oaths and the obligation of subjects in London to uphold laws, with digressions on the Crown’s rights, the representation of Lords, and the conditions of naval sailors. It weaves in comments on prisoners exchanges, maritime duties, and warnings about governance under sovereign power. It also lists local advertisements and pamphlet notices for sale.
