Grenville's address as outgoing Prime Minister. A lengthy speech on the Protestant/Catholic tensions--one issue that troubled his tenure as prime minister as well as other aspects of his political career. In fact, it was his position on the Catholic question that ended his administration. Nevertheless, he concludes this speech with a good Christian sentiment: "But if we truly reverence our religion, let it not be suspected that we use it as the cloak of our ambition. If we are sincere members of that faith which has proclaimed peace and good-will to men, let it never be employed to scatter animosity and rancour through the land. In this happy island, although many differences of religious persuasion exist among us, we have long been united by habits of mutual affection, and by principles of toleration deeply rooted in our hearts."
