"The Covenant which I took, I own it and adhere to it. Bishops, I care not for them. I never intended to advance their interest. But when the king had granted you all your desires and you were every one sitting under his vine and under his fig tree - that then you should have taken a party in England by the hand, and entered into a league and covenant* with them against the king, was the thing I judged my duty to oppose to the yondmost."
