Description: The image appears to have been inspired by the well-known story of how Melville took James by the sleeve, telling him, "Sir, as divers tymes befor, sa now again, I maun tell ye, ye are God's sillie vassal; thair are twa kings and twa kingdomes in Scotland: thair is King James, the heid of the commonweal; and thair is Chryst Jesus, and his kingdome the Kirk, whase subject James the Saxt is, and of whase kingdom nocht a king, nor a lord, nor a heid, but a member."
