How does Dr. Bulkeley present the Royalist point of view in The Witch of Blackbird Pond?

The Reverend Gershom Bulkeley was a real
personan early graduate of Harvard College and son-in-law of its president, Charles Chauncy.
Like his character in , he was an ardent Royalist, taking the Hobbesian
position that even the worst tyranny is preferable to anarchy.

In the book,
Dr. Bulkeley (he is a physician as well as a minister) dines with the Wood family and argues
with Uncle Matthew over the king's appointment of a new governor, Sir Edmund Andros. This
quickly turns into a debate about the king's authority in which Dr. Bulkeley holds forth about
the evils of revolution from a Hobbesian perspective.

When Mercy interrupts
and asks Dr. Bulkeley to read from the Bible, he asks John Holbrook to do so instead and
deliberately chooses Proverbs 24.21: "My son, fear thou the Lord and the king: and meddle
not with them that are given to change." Dr. Bulkeley thus supports his views with
scripture and links the jurisdiction of the king with that of God.
