ABDICATION, n. An act whereby a sovereign attests his sense of the
high temperature of the throne.

Poor Isabella's Dead, whose abdication
Set all tongues wagging in the Spanish nation.
For that performance 'twere unfair to scold her:
She wisely left a throne too hot to hold her.
To History she'll be no royal riddle --
Merely a plain parched pea that jumped the griddle.
G.J.
ABDICATION
(bouvier)
ABDICATION, government. 1. A simple renunciation of an office, generally
understood of a supreme office. James II. of England; Charles V. of Germany;
and Christiana, Queen of Sweden, are said to have abdicated. When James III
of England left the kingdom, the Commons voted that he had abdicated the
government, and that thereby the throne had become vacant. The House of
Lords preferred the word deserted, but the Commons thought it not
comprehensive enough, for then, the king might have the liberty of
returning. 2. When inferior magistrates decline or surrender their offices,
they are said to make a resignation. (q.v.)
