Excerpt from The National Covenant, and Solemn League and Covenant, With the Acknowledgement of Sins and Engagement to Duties: As They Were Renewed at Auchensaugh, Near Douglas, 24th July 1712, With Accommodation to the Present Times Covenanting with god is the most signal honour, to which a people or nation can be exalted in this world but no nation, under the New Testament dispensation, seems to have been more eminently honoured in this respect, than the kingdom of Scotland. So soon as our land emerged out of darkness, and attained the light of evangelical truth, our renowned Ancestors. Of all ranks, entered into various Covenants, to maintain the True Religion, betwixt 1557 and 1582, in Opposition to all the idolatry and errors of the apostate church of Rome. The chief of these was the National Covenant of Scotland, which was subscribed by the King and his household, in the year 1580, and by persons of all' ranks, 1581.
