EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO.
EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org).
The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source.
Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data.
Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so.
Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as <gap>s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor.
The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines.
Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

But
every
Man
in
his
own
order
:
Christ
the
first
fruits
;
afterward
they
that
are
Christ's
at
his
coming
.
THe
Condition
of
Man
in
this
world
is
so
limited
and
depressed
,
so
relative
and
imperfect
,
that
the
best
things
he
does
he
does
weakly
,
and
the
best
things
he
hath
are
imperfections
in
their
very
constitution
.
I
need
not
tell
how
little
it
is
that
we
know
;
the
greatest
indication
of
this
is
,
That
we
can
never
tell
how
many
things
we
know
not
:
and
we
may
soon
span
our
own
Knowledge
,
but
our
Ignorance
we
can
never
fathom
.
Our
very
Will
,
in
which
Mankind
pretends
to
be
most
noble
and
imperial
,
is
a
direct
state
of
imperfection
;
and
our
very
liberty
of
Chusing
good
and
evil
is
permitted
to
us
,
not
to
make
us
proud
,
but
to
make
us
humble
;
for
it
supposes
weakness
of
Reason
and
weakness
of
Love.
For
if
we
understood
all
the
degrees
of
Amability
in
the
Service
of
God
,
or
if
we
had
such
love
to
God
as
he
deserves
,
and
so
perfect
a
conviction
as
were
fit
for
his
Services
,
we
could
no
more
Deliberate
:
For
Liberty
of
Will
is
like
the
motion
of
a
Magnetick
Needle
toward
the
North
,
full
of
trembling
and
uncertainty
till
it
were
fixed
in
the
beloved
Point
;
it
wavers
as
long
as
it
is
free
,
and
is
at
rest
when
it
can
chuse
no
more
.
And
truly
what
is
the
hope
of
Man
?
It
is
indeed
the
resurrection
of
the
Soul
in
this
world
from
sorrow
and
her
saddest
pressures
,
and
like
the
Twilight
to
the
Day
,
and
the
Harbinger
of
joy
;
but
still
it
is
but
a
conjugation
of
Infirmities
,
and
proclaims
our
present
calamity
,
onely
because
it
is
uneasie
here
,
it
thrusts
us
forwards
toward
the
light
and
glories
of
the
Resurrection
.
For
as
a
Worm
creeping
with
her
belly
on
the
ground
,
with
her
portion
and
share
of
Adam's
curse
,
lifts
up
its
head
to
partake
a
little
of
the
blessings
of
the
air
,
and
opens
the
junctures
of
her
imperfect
body
,
and
curles
her
little
rings
into
knots
and
combinations
,
drawing
up
her
tail
to
a
neighbourhood
of
the
heads
pleasure
and
motion
;
but
still
it
must
return
to
abide
the
fate
of
its
own
nature
,
and
dwell
and
sleep
upon
the
dust
:
So
are
the
hopes
of
a
mortal
Man
;
he
opens
his
eyes
and
looks
upon
fine
things
at
distance
,
and
shuts
them
again
with
weakness
,
because
they
are
too
glorious
to
behold
;
and
the
Man
rejoyces
because
he
hopes
fine
things
are
staying
for
him
;
but
his
heart
akes
,
because
he
knows
there
are
a
thousand
wayes
to
fail
and
miss
of
those
glories
;
&
though
he
hopes
,
yet
he
enjoys
not
;
he
longs
,
but
he
possesses
not
,
and
must
be
content
with
his
portion
of
dust
;
and
being
a
worm
and
no
Man
must
lie
down
in
this
portion
,
before
he
can
receive
the
end
of
his
hopes
,
the
Salvation
of
his
Soul
in
the
resurrection
of
the
dead
.
For
as
Death
is
the
end
of
our
lives
,
so
is
the
Resurrection
the
end
of
our
hopes
;
and
as
we
die
daily
,
so
we
daily
hope
:
but
Death
,
which
is
the
end
of
our
life
,
is
the
enlargement
of
our
Spirits
from
hope
to
certainty
,
from
uncertain
fears
to
certain
expectations
,
from
the
death
of
the
body
to
the
life
of
the
soul
;
that
is
,
to
partake
of
the
light
and
life
of
Christ
,
to
rise
to
life
as
he
did
;
for
his
Resurrection
is
the
beginning
of
ours
:
He
died
for
us
alone
,
not
for
himself
;
but
he
rose
again
for
himself
and
us
too
.
So
that
if
he
did
rise
,
so
shall
we
;
the
Resurrection
shall
be
universal
;
good
and
bad
;
all
shall
rise
,
but
not
altogether
.
First
Christ
,
then
we
that
are
Christs
;
and
yet
there
is
a
third
Resurrection
,
though
not
spoken
of
here
;
but
thus
it
shall
be
.
The
dead
in
Christ
shall
rise
first
;
that
is
,
next
to
Christ
;
and
after
them
the
wicked
shall
rise
to
condemnation
.
So
that
you
see
here
is
the
summe
of
affairs
treated
of
in
my
Text
:
Not
whether
it
be
lawful
to
eat
a
Tortoise
or
a
Mushrome
,
or
to
tread
with
the
foot
bare
upon
the
ground
within
the
Octaves
of
Easter
.
It
is
not
here
inquired
whether
Angels
be
material
or
immaterial
;
or
whether
the
dwellings
of
dead
Infants
be
within
the
Air
or
in
the
regions
of
the
Earth
;
the
inquiry
here
is
whether
we
are
to
be
Christians
or
no
?
whether
we
are
to
live
good
lives
or
no
?
or
whether
it
be
permitted
to
us
to
live
with
Lust
or
Covetousness
acted
with
all
the
daughters
of
rapine
and
ambition
?
whether
there
be
any
such
thing
as
sin
,
any
judicatory
for
Consciences
,
any
rewards
of
Piety
,
any
difference
of
Good
and
Bad
,
any
rewards
after
this
life
?
This
is
the
design
of
these
words
by
proper
interpretation
:
for
if
Men
shall
die
like
Dogs
and
sheep
,
they
will
certainly
live
like
Wolves
and
Foxes
:
but
he
that
believes
the
Article
of
the
Resurrection
,
hath
entertained
the
greatest
Demonstration
in
the
world
,
That
nothing
can
make
us
happy
but
the
Knowledge
of
God
,
and
Conformity
to
the
life
and
death
of
the
holy
Jesus
.
Here
therefore
are
the
great
Hinges
of
all
Religion
:
1.
Christ
is
already
risen
from
the
dead
.
2.
We
also
shall
rise
in
Gods
time
and
our
order
.
Christ
is
the
first
fruits
.
But
there
shall
be
a
full
harvest
of
the
Resurrection
,
and
all
shall
rise
.
My
Text
speaks
onely
of
the
Resurrection
of
the
just
,
of
them
that
belong
to
Christ
;
explicitely
I
say
of
these
;
and
therefore
directly
of
Resurrection
to
life
eternal
.
But
because
he
also
sayes
there
shall
be
an
order
for
every
man
;
and
yet
every
man
does
not
belong
to
Christ
;
therefore
indirectly
also
he
implies
the
more
universal
Resurrection
unto
judgment
.
But
this
shall
be
the
last
thing
that
shall
be
done
;
for
,
according
to
the
Proverb
of
the
Jews
,
Michael
flies
but
with
one
wing
,
and
Gabriel
with
two
;
God
is
quick
in
sending
Angels
of
peace
,
and
they
flye
apace
;
but
the
messengers
of
wrath
come
slowly
:
God
is
more
hasty
to
glorifie
his
servants
then
to
condemn
the
wicked
.
And
therefore
in
the
story
of
Dives
and
Lazarus
we
find
that
the
beggar
died
first
;
the
good
man
Lazarus
was
first
taken
away
from
his
misery
to
his
comfort
,
and
afterwards
the
rich
man
died
:
and
as
the
good
many
times
die
first
,
so
all
of
them
rise
first
,
as
if
it
were
a
matter
of
haste
:
And
as
the
mothers
breasts
swell
and
shoot
and
long
to
give
food
to
her
babe
;
so
Gods
bowels
did
yearn
over
his
banish'd
children
,
and
he
longs
to
cause
them
to
eat
and
drink
in
his
Kingdom
.
And
at
last
the
wicked
shall
rise
unto
condemnation
,
for
that
must
be
done
too
;
every
man
in
his
own
order
:
first
Christ
,
then
Christs
servants
,
and
at
last
Christs
enemies
.
The
first
of
these
is
the
great
ground
of
our
faith
,
the
second
is
the
consummation
of
all
our
hopes
:
the
first
is
the
foundation
of
God
that
stands
sure
,
the
second
is
that
superstructure
that
shall
never
perish
:
by
the
first
we
believe
in
God
unto
righteousness
,
by
the
second
we
live
in
God
unto
salvation
:
But
the
third
,
for
that
also
is
true
&
must
be
consider'd
,
is
the
great
affrightment
of
all
them
that
live
ungodly
.
But
in
the
whole
Christs
Resurrection
and
ours
is
the
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
and
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
of
a
Christian
;
that
as
Jesus
Christ
is
the
same
yesterday
and
to
day
,
and
the
same
for
ever
;
so
may
we
in
Christ
,
become
in
the
morrow
of
the
Resurrection
the
same
or
better
then
yesterday
in
our
natural
life
;
the
same
body
and
the
same
soul
tied
together
in
the
same
essential
union
,
with
this
onely
difference
,
that
not
Nature
but
Grace
and
Glory
with
an
Hermetick
seal
give
us
a
new
signature
,
whereby
we
shall
no
more
be
changed
,
but
like
unto
Christ
our
head
we
shall
become
the
same
for
ever
.
Of
these
I
shall
discourse
in
order
.
1.
That
Christ
,
who
is
the
first
fruits
,
is
the
first
in
this
order
:
he
is
already
risen
from
the
dead
.
2.
We
shall
all
take
our
turns
,
we
shall
all
die
,
and
as
sure
as
death
we
shall
all
rise
again
.
And
3.
This
very
order
is
effective
of
the
thing
it self
.
That
Christ
is
first
risen
,
is
the
demonstration
and
certainty
of
ours
,
for
because
there
is
an
order
in
this
oeconomy
,
the
first
in
the
kind
is
the
measure
of
the
rest
.
If
Christ
be
the
first
fruits
,
we
are
the
whole
vintage
,
and
we
shall
all
die
in
the
order
of
Nature
,
and
shall
rise
again
in
the
order
of
Christ
:
They
that
are
Christ's
,
and
are
found
so
at
his
coming
,
shall
partake
of
his
resurrection
.
But
Christ
first
,
then
they
that
are
Christ's
:
that
's
the
order
.
1.
Christ
is
the
first
fruits
;
he
is
already
risen
from
the
dead
.
For
he
alone
could
not
be
held
by
death
.
Free
among
the
dead
.

;
Death
was
Sins
eldest
daughter
,
and
the
Grave-clothes
were
her
first
mantle
;
but
Christ
was
conquerour
over
both
,
and
came
to
take
that
away
,
and
to
disarm
this
.
This
was
a
glory
fit
for
the
head
of
mankind
,
but
it
was
too
great
and
too
good
to
be
easily
believ'd
by
incredulous
and
weak-hearted
Man.
It
was
at
first
doubted
of
by
all
that
were
concerned
;
but
they
that
saw
it
had
no
reason
to
doubt
any
longer
.
But
what
's
that
to
us
who
saw
it
not
?
Yes
,
very
much
.
Valde
dubitatum
est
ab
illis
,
ne
dubitaretur
à
nobis
,
saith
S.
Augustine
.
They
doubted
very
much
,
that
by
their
confirmation
we
might
be
established
and
doubt
no
more
.
Mary
Magdalene
saw
him
first
,
and
she
ran
with
joy
and
said
she
had
seen
the
Lord
,
and
that
he
was
risen
from
the
dead
;
but
they
believed
her
not
.
After
that
divers
women
together
saw
him
,
and
they
told
it
,
but
had
no
thanks
for
their
pains
,
and
obtain'd
no
credit
among
the
Disciples
.
The
two
Disciples
that
went
to
Emaus
saw
him
,
talk'd
with
him
,
eat
with
him
,
and
they
ran
and
told
it
:
they
told
true
,
but
no
body
believ'd
them
.
Then
S.
Peter
saw
him
,
but
he
was
not
yet
got
into
the
Chair
of
the
Catholick
Church
,
they
did
not
think
him
infallible
,
and
so
they
believ'd
him
not
at
all
.
Five
times
in
one
day
he
appear'd
;
for
after
all
this
he
appear'd
to
the
Eleven
;
they
were
indeed
transported
with
joy
and
wonder
,
but
they
would
scarce
believe
their
own
eyes
,
and
though
they
saw
him
they
doubted
.
Well
,
all
this
was
not
enough
;
he
was
seen
also
of
Iames
,
and
suffered
Thomas
to
thrust
his
hand
into
his
side
,
and
appeared
to
S.
Paul
,
and
was
seen
by
five
hundred
brethren
at
once
.
So
that
there
is
no
capacity
of
mankind
,
no
time
,
no
place
,
but
had
an
ocular
demonstration
of
his
Resurrection
.
He
appeared
to
Men
and
Women
,
to
the
Clergy
and
the
Laity
,
to
sinners
of
both
sexes
;
to
weak
men
and
to
criminals
,
to
doubters
and
deniers
,
at
home
and
abroad
,
in
publick
and
in
private
,
in
their
houses
and
their
journeys
,
unexpected
and
by
appointment
,
betimes
in
the
morning
and
late
at
night
,
to
them
in
conjunction
and
to
them
in
dispersion
,
when
they
did
look
for
him
and
when
they
did
not
;
he
appeared
upon
earth
to
many
,
and
to
S.
Paul
and
S.
Stephen
from
heaven
.
So
that
we
can
require
no
greater
testimony
then
all
these
are
able
to
give
us
,
and
they
saw
for
themselves
and
for
us
too
,
that
the
Faith
and
certainty
of
the
Resurrection
of
Iesus
might
be
conveyed
to
all
that
shall
die
and
follow
Christ
in
their
own
order
.
Now
this
being
matter
of
fact
,
cannot
be
suppos'd
infinite
,
but
limited
to
time
and
place
,
and
therefore
to
be
prov'd
by
them
who
at
that
time
were
upon
the
place
;
good
men
and
true
,
simple
and
yet
losers
by
the
bargain
,
many
and
united
,
confident
and
constant
,
preaching
it
all
their
life
,
and
stoutly
maintaining
it
at
their
death
.
Men
that
would
not
deceive
others
,
and
Men
that
could
not
be
deceiv'd
themselves
in
a
matter
so
notorious
and
so
prov'd
,
and
so
seen
:
and
if
this
be
not
sufficient
credibility
in
a
matter
of
Fact
as
this
was
,
then
we
can
have
no
story
credibly
transmitted
to
us
,
no
Records
kept
,
no
Acts
of
Courts
,
no
narratives
of
the
dayes
of
old
,
no
traditions
of
our
Fathers
,
no
memorials
of
them
in
the
third
generation
.
Nay
,
if
from
these
we
have
not
sufficient
causes
and
arguments
of
Faith
,
how
shall
we
be
able
to
know
the
will
of
Heaven
upon
Earth
?
unless
God
do
not
only
tell
it
once
,
but
alwayes
,
and
not
only
alwayes
to
some
Men
,
but
alwayes
to
all
Men
:
for
if
some
Men
must
believe
others
,
they
can
never
do
it
in
any
thing
more
reasonably
than
in
this
;
and
if
we
may
not
trust
them
in
this
,
then
without
a
perpetual
miracle
,
no
Man
could
have
Faith
:
for
Faith
could
never
come
by
hearing
;
by
nothing
but
by
seeing
.
But
if
there
be
any
use
of
History
,
any
Faith
in
Men
,
any
honesty
in
manners
,
any
truth
in
humane
entercourse
;
if
there
be
any
use
of
Apostles
or
Teachers
,
of
Embassadors
,
or
Letters
,
of
ears
or
hearing
;
if
there
be
any
such
thing
as
the
Grace
of
Faith
,
that
is
less
than
demonstration
or
intuition
,
then
we
may
be
as
sure
that
Christ
the
first
Fruits
is
already
risen
,
as
all
these
credibilities
can
make
us
.
But
let
us
take
heed
;
as
God
hates
a
lie
,
so
he
hates
incredulity
;
an
obstinate
,
a
foolish
and
pertinacious
understanding
.
What
we
do
every
minute
of
our
lives
in
matters
of
title
and
great
concernment
,
if
we
refuse
to
do
it
in
Religion
,
which
yet
is
to
be
conducted
as
all
humane
affairs
are
,
by
humane
instruments
and
arguments
of
perswasion
proper
to
the
nature
of
the
thing
,
it
is
an
obstinacy
as
cross
to
humane
reason
,
as
it
is
to
Divine
Faith.
But
this
Article
was
so
clearly
prov'd
,
that
presently
it
came
to
pass
that
Men
were
no
longer
asham'd
of
the
Cross
,
but
it
was
worn
upon
breasts
,
printed
in
the
air
,
drawn
upon
foreheads
,
carried
upon
Banners
,
put
upon
crowns
Imperial
,
presently
it
came
to
pass
that
the
Religion
of
the
despised
Jesus
did
infinitely
prevail
:
a
Religion
that
taught
Men
to
be
meek
and
humble
,
apt
to
receive
injuries
,
but
unapt
to
do
any
;
a
Religion
that
gave
countenance
to
the
poor
and
pitiful
,
in
a
time
when
riches
were
ador'd
,
and
ambition
and
pleasure
had
possessed
the
heart
of
all
Mankind
;
a
Religion
that
would
change
the
face
of
things
,
and
the
hearts
of
Men
,
and
break
vile
habits
into
gentleness
and
counsel
;
that
such
a
Religion
,
in
such
a
time
by
the
Sermons
and
Conduct
of
Fishermen
,
Men
of
mean
breeding
and
illiberal
Arts
,
should
so
speedily
triumph
over
the
Philosophy
of
the
World
,
and
the
arguments
of
the
subtil
,
and
the
Sermons
of
the
Eloquent
;
the
Power
of
Princes
and
the
Interests
of
States
,
the
inclinations
of
Nature
,
and
the
blindness
of
zeal
,
the
force
of
custom
,
and
the
sollicitation
of
passions
,
the
pleasures
of
sin
and
the
busie
Arts
of
the
Devil
;
that
is
,
against
Wit
and
Power
,
Superstition
and
Wilfulness
,
Fame
and
Money
,
Nature
and
Empire
,
which
are
all
the
causes
in
this
World
that
can
make
a
thing
impossible
;
this
,
this
is
to
be
ascrib'd
to
the
power
of
God
,
and
is
the
great
demonstration
of
the
Resurrection
of
Jesus
.
Every
thing
was
an
Argument
for
it
,
and
improv'd
it
;
no
Objection
could
hinder
it
,
no
Enemies
destroy
it
;
whatsoever
was
for
them
,
it
made
the
Religion
to
increase
;
whatsoever
was
against
them
,
made
it
to
increase
;
Sun-shine
and
Storms
,
Fair
Weather
or
Foul
,
it
was
all
one
as
to
the
event
of
things
:
for
they
were
instruments
in
the
hands
of
God
,
who
could
make
what
himself
should
chuse
to
be
the
product
of
any
cause
;
So
that
if
the
Christians
had
peace
,
they
went
abroad
and
brought
in
Converts
;
if
they
had
no
peace
,
but
persecution
;
the
Converts
came
in
to
them
.
In
prosperity
they
allur'd
and
intic'd
the
World
by
the
beauty
of
holiness
;
in
affliction
and
trouble
they
amaz'd
all
men
with
the
splendour
of
their
Innocence
,
and
the
glories
of
their
patience
;
and
quickly
it
was
that
the
World
became
Disciple
to
the
glorious
Nazarene
,
and
men
could
no
longer
doubt
of
the
Resurrection
of
Jesus
,
when
it
became
so
demonstrated
by
the
certainty
of
them
that
saw
it
,
and
the
courage
of
them
that
died
for
it
,
and
the
multitude
of
them
that
believ'd
it
;
who
by
their
Sermons
,
and
their
Actions
,
by
their
publick
Offices
and
Discourses
,
by
Festivals
and
Eucharists
,
by
Arguments
of
Experience
and
Sense
,
by
Reason
and
Religion
,
by
perswading
rational
Men
,
and
establishing
believing
Christians
,
by
their
living
in
the
obedience
of
Jesus
,
and
dying
for
the
testimony
of
Jesus
,
have
greatly
advanc'd
his
Kingdom
,
and
his
Power
,
and
his
Glory
,
into
which
he
entred
after
his
Resurrection
from
the
dead
.
For
he
is
the
first
fruits
;
and
if
we
hope
to
rise
through
him
,
we
must
confess
that
himself
is
first
risen
from
the
dead
.
That
's
the
first
particular
.
2.
There
is
an
order
for
us
also
.
We
also
shall
rise
again
.
Combustúsque
senex
tumulo
procedit
adultus
,
Consumens
dat
membra
rogus
;
—
The
ashes
of
old
Camillus
shall
stand
up
spritely
from
his
Urne
;
and
the
Funeral
fires
shall
produce
a
new
warmth
to
the
dead
bones
of
all
those
who
died
under
the
arms
of
all
the
Enemies
of
the
Roman
greatness
.
This
is
a
less
wonder
than
the
former
:
for
admonetur
omnis
aetas
jam
fieri
posse
quod
aliquando
factum
est
.
If
it
was
done
once
,
it
may
be
done
again
;
for
since
it
could
never
have
been
done
,
but
by
a
power
that
is
infinite
,
that
infinite
must
also
be
eternal
and
indeficient
.
By
the
same
Almighty
power
which
restor'd
life
to
the
dead
body
of
our
living
Lord
,
we
may
all
be
restor'd
to
a
new
life
in
the
Resurrection
of
the
dead
.
When
Man
was
not
,
what
power
,
what
causes
made
him
to
be
?
whatsoever
it
was
,
it
did
then
as
great
a
work
as
to
raise
his
body
to
the
same
being
again
;
and
because
we
know
not
the
method
of
Natures
secret
changes
,
and
how
we
can
be
fashioned
beneath
in
secreto
terrae
,
and
cannot
handle
and
discern
the
possibilities
and
seminal
powers
in
the
ashes
of
dissolved
bones
,
must
our
ignorance
in
Philosophy
be
put
in
balance
against
the
Articles
of
Religion
,
the
hopes
of
Mankind
,
the
Faith
of
Nations
and
the
truth
of
God
?
and
are
our
Opinions
of
the
power
of
God
so
low
,
that
our
understanding
must
be
his
measure
;
and
he
shall
be
confessed
to
do
nothing
,
unless
it
be
made
plain
in
our
Philosophy
?
Certainly
we
have
a
low
Opinion
of
God
unless
we
believe
he
can
do
more
things
then
we
can
understand
.
But
let
us
hear
S.
Paul's
demonstration
:
If
the
Corn
dies
and
lives
again
;
if
it
layes
its
body
down
,
suffers
alteration
,
dissolution
and
death
,
but
at
the
spring
rises
again
in
the
verdure
of
a
leaf
,
in
the
fulness
of
the
ear
,
in
the
kidneys
of
wheat
;
if
it
proceeds
from
little
to
great
,
from
nakedness
to
ornament
,
from
emptiness
to
plenty
,
from
unity
to
multitude
,
from
death
to
life
:
be
a
Sadducee
no
more
,
shame
not
thy
understanding
,
and
reproch
not
the
weakness
of
thy
Faith
,
by
thinking
that
Corn
can
be
restor'd
to
life
and
Man
cannot
;
especially
since
in
every
creature
the
obediential
capacity
is
infinite
,
and
cannot
admit
degrees
;
for
every
Creature
can
be
any
thing
under
the
power
of
God
,
which
cannot
be
less
than
infinite
.
But
we
find
no
obscure
foot-steps
of
this
mystery
even
amongst
the
Heathens
.
Pliny
reports
that
Appion
the
Grammarian
by
the
use
of
the
plant
Osiris
call'd
Homer
from
his
grave
;
and
in
Valerius
Maximus
we
find
that
AElius
Tubero
return'd
to
life
when
he
was
seated
in
his
Funeral
pile
;
and
in
Plutarch
,
that
Soleus
after
three
dayes
burial
did
live
,
and
in
Valerius
that
AEris
Pamphilius
did
so
after
ten
dayes
.
And
it
was
so
commonly
believ'd
,
that
Glaucus
who
was
choked
in
a
vessel
of
honey
did
rise
again
,
that
it
grew
to
a
Proverb
;
Glaucus
poto
melle
resurrexit
;
Glaucus
having
tasted
honey
,
died
and
liv'd
again
.
I
pretend
not
to
believe
these
stories
true
;
but
from
these
instances
it
may
be
concluded
that
they
believ'd
it
possible
that
there
should
be
a
Resurrection
from
the
dead
;
and
natural
reason
,
and
their
Philosophy
did
not
wholly
destroy
their
hopes
and
expectation
to
have
a
portion
in
this
Article
.
For
God
knowing
that
the
great
hopes
of
Man
,
that
the
biggest
endearment
of
Religion
,
the
sanction
of
private
Justice
,
the
band
of
Piety
and
holy
Courage
,
does
wholly
derive
from
the
Article
of
the
Resurrection
,
was
pleased
not
onely
to
make
it
credible
,
but
easie
and
familiar
to
us
;
and
we
so
converse
every
night
with
the
Image
of
death
,
that
every
morning
we
find
an
argument
of
the
Resurrection
.
Sleep
and
Death
have
but
one
mother
,
and
they
have
one
name
in
common
.
Soles
occidere
&
redire
possunt
,
Nobis
cum
semel
occidit
lux
brevis
,
Nox
est
perpetua
una
dormienda
.
Catul.
Charnel-houses
are
but
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
Cemeteries
or
sleeping-places
,
and
they
that
die
are
fallen
asleep
,
and
the
Resurrection
is
but
an
awakening
and
standing
up
from
sleep
:
but
in
sleep
our
Senses
are
as
fast
bound
by
Nature
;
as
our
Joynts
are
by
the
grave-clothes
;
and
unless
an
Angel
of
God
awaken
us
every
morning
,
we
must
confess
our selves
as
unable
to
converse
with
Men
,
as
we
now
are
afraid
to
die
and
to
converse
with
Spirits
.
But
however
Death
it self
is
no
more
;
it
is
but
darkness
and
a
shadow
,
a
rest
and
a
forgetfulness
.
What
is
there
more
in
death
?
what
is
there
less
in
sleep
?
For
do
we
not
see
by
experience
that
nothing
of
equal
loudness
does
awaken
us
sooner
then
a
Mans
voice
,
especially
if
he
be
call'd
by
name
?
and
thus
also
it
shall
be
in
the
Resurrection
.
We
shall
be
awakened
by
the
voice
of
a
Man
,
and
he
that
call'd
Lazarus
by
name
from
his
grave
,
shall
also
call
us
:
for
although
S.
Paul
affirms
,
that
the
trumpet
shall
sound
,
and
there
shall
be
the
voice
of
an
Archangel
;
yet
this
is
not
a
word
of
Nature
,
but
of
Office
and
Ministry
:
Christ
himself
is
that
Archangel
,
and
he
shall
descend
with
a
mighty
shout
,
(
saith
the
Apostle
)
and
all
that
are
in
the
grave
shall
hear
his
voice
,
saith
S.
John
:
So
that
we
shall
be
awakened
by
the
voice
of
a
Man
,
because
we
are
onely
fallen
asleep
by
the
decree
of
God
;
and
when
the
Cock
and
the
Lark
call
us
up
to
prayer
and
labour
,
the
first
thing
we
see
is
an
argument
of
our
Resurrection
from
the
dead
.
And
when
we
consider
what
the
Greek
Church
reports
,
That
amongst
them
the
bodies
of
those
that
die
Excommunicate
will
not
return
to
dust
till
the
Censure
be
taken
off
;
we
may
with
a
little
faith
and
reason
believe
,
that
the
same
power
that
keeps
them
from
their
natural
Dissolution
,
can
recall
them
to
life
and
union
.
I
will
not
now
insist
upon
the
story
of
the
Rising
Bones
seen
every
year
in
Egypt
,
nor
the
pretences
of
the
Chymists
,
that
they
from
the
ashes
of
Flowers
can
re-produce
from
the
same
materials
the
same
beauties
in
colour
and
figure
;
for
he
that
proves
a
certain
Truth
from
an
uncertain
Argument
,
is
like
him
that
wears
a
Wooden
leg
when
he
hath
two
sound
legs
already
;
it
hinders
his
going
,
but
helps
him
not
:
The
Truth
of
God
stands
not
in
need
of
such
supporters
,
Nature
alone
is
a
sufficient
preacher
:
Quae

all
joyn
in

of
this
Mystery
.
And
amongst
these
heaps
it
is
not
of
the
least
consideration
that
there
was
never
any
good
man
,
who
having
been
taught
this
Article
,
but
if
he
serv'd
God
,
he
also
relied
upon
this
.
If
he
believ'd
God
,
he
believ'd
this
;
and
therefore
S.
Paul
sayes
that
they
who
were
〈◊〉

,
were
also
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
they
who
had
no
hope
(
meaning
of
the
Resurrection
)
were
also
Atheists
,
and
without
God
in
the
world
.
And
it
is
remarkable
what
S.
Augustine
observes
,
That
when
the
World
saw
the
righteous
Abel
destroyed
,
and
that
the
murderer
out-liv'd
his
crime
,
and
built
up
a
numerous
family
,
and
grew
mighty
upon
Earth
,
they
neglected
the
Service
of
God
upon
that
account
,
till
God
in
pity
of
their
prejudice
and
foolish
arguings
took
Enoch
up
to
heaven
to
recover
them
from
their
impieties
,
by
shewing
them
that
their
bodies
and
souls
should
be
rewarded
for
ever
in
an
eternal
union
.
But
Christ
the
first
fruits
is
gone
before
,
and
himself
did
promise
that
when
himself
was
lifted
up
he
would
draw
all
men
after
him
.
Every
man
in
his
own
order
;
first
Christ
,
then
they
that
are
Christ's
at
his
coming
.
And
so
I
have
done
with
the
second
Particular
,
not
Christ
onely
,
but
we
also
shall
rise
in
Gods
time
and
our
order
.
But
concerning
this
order
I
must
speak
a
word
or
two
,
not
only
for
the
fuller
handling
the
Text
,
but
because
it
will
be
matter
of
application
of
what
hath
been
already
spoken
of
the
Article
of
the
Resurrection
.
3.
First
Christ
and
then
we
.
And
we
therefore
because
Christ
is
already
risen
.
But
you
must
remember
,
that
the
Resurrection
and
Exaltation
of
Christ
was
the
reward
of
his
perfect
obedience
and
purest
holiness
;
and
he
calling
us
to
an
imitation
of
the
same
obedience
,
and
the
same
perfect
holiness
,
prepares
a
way
for
us
to
the
same
Resurrection
.
If
we
by
holiness
become
the
Sons
of
God
as
Christ
was
,
we
shall
also
as
he
was
become
the
Sons
of
God
in
the
Resurrection
:
But
upon
no
other
terms
.
So
said
our
blessed
Lord
himself
:
Ye
which
have
followed
me
in
the
regeneration
,
when
the
Son
of
Man
shall
sit
on
the
throne
of
his
glory
,
ye
also
shall
sit
upon
thrones
judging
the
tribes
of
Israel
.
For
as
it
was
with
Christ
the
first
fruits
,
so
it
shall
be
with
all
Christians
in
their
own
order
:
as
with
the
Head
,
so
it
shall
be
with
the
Members
.
He
was
the
Son
of
God
by
love
and
obedience
,
and
then
became
the
Son
of
God
by
Resurrection
from
the
dead
to
life
Eternal
,
and
so
shall
we
;
but
we
cannot
be
so
in
any
other
way
.
To
them
that
are
Christ's
,
and
to
none
else
shall
this
be
given
.
For
we
must
know
that
God
hath
sent
Christ
into
the
World
to
be
a
great
example
and
demonstration
of
the
Oeconomy
and
Dispensation
of
Eternal
life
.
As
God
brought
Christ
to
glory
,
so
he
will
bring
us
,
but
by
no
other
method
.
He
first
obeyed
the
will
of
God
,
and
patiently
suffered
the
will
of
God
;
he
died
,
and
rose
again
,
and
entered
into
glory
;
and
so
must
we
.
Thus
Christ
is
made
Via
,
Veritas
,
&
Vita
,
the
Way
,
the
Truth
,
and
the
Life
;
that
is
,
the
true
way
to
Eternal
life
:
He
first
trode
this
Wine-press
,
and
we
must
insist
in
the
same
steps
,
or
we
shall
never
partake
of
this
blessed
Resurrection
.
He
was
made
the
Son
of
God
in
a
most
glorious
manner
,
and
we
by
him
,
by
his
merit
,
and
by
his
grace
,
and
by
his
example
:
but
other
then
this
there
is
no
way
of
Salvation
for
us
.
That
's
the
first
and
great
effect
of
this
glorious
order
.
4.
But
there
is
one
thing
more
in
it
yet
,
Every
Man
in
his
own
order
.
First
Christ
,
and
then
Christ's
.
But
what
shall
become
of
them
that
are
not
Christ's
?
why
there
is
an
order
for
them
too
.
First
,
they
that
are
Christ's
;
and
then
they
that
are
not
his
.
*
Blessed
and
holy
is
he
that
hath
his
part
in
the
first
resurrection
.
There
is
a
first
and
a
second
Resurrection
even
after
this
life
.
The
dead
in
Christ
shall
rise
first
.
Now
blessed
are
they
that
have
their
portion
here
;
for
upon
these
the
second
death
shall
have
no
power
.
As
for
the
recalling
the
wicked
from
their
graves
,
it
is
no
otherwise
in
the
sense
of
the
Spirit
to
be
called
a
Resurrection
,
then
taking
a
Criminal
from
the
Prison
to
the
Bar
is
a
giving
of
liberty
.
When
poor
Attilius
Aviola
had
been
seized
on
by
an
Apoplexy
,
his
friends
supposing
him
dead
carried
him
to
his
Funeral
pile
;
but
when
the
fire
began
to
approch
,
and
the
heat
to
warm
the
body
,
he
reviv'd
,
and
seeing
himself
incircled
with
Funeral
flames
,
call'd
out
aloud
to
his
friends
to
rescue
,
not
the
dead
,
but
the
living
Aviola
from
that
horrid
burning
.
But
it
could
not
be
.
He
onely
was
restor'd
from
his
sickness
to
fall
into
death
,
and
from
his
dull
disease
to
a
sharp
and
intolerable
torment
.
Just
so
shall
the
wicked
live
again
;
they
shall
receive
their
souls
,
that
they
may
be
a
portion
for
Devils
;
they
shall
receive
their
bodies
,
that
they
may
feel
the
everlasting
burning
;
they
shall
see
Christ
,
that
they
may
look
on
him
whom
they
have
pierced
;
and
they
shall
hear
the
voice
of
God
passing
upon
them
the
intolerable
sentence
;
they
shall
come
from
their
graves
,
that
they
may
go
into
hell
;
and
live
again
,
that
they
may
die
for
ever
.
So
have
we
seen
a
poor
condemned
Criminal
,
the
weight
of
whose
sorrows
sitting
heavily
upon
his
soul
hath
benummed
him
into
a
deep
sleep
,
till
he
hath
forgotten
his
grones
,
and
laid
aside
his
deep
sighings
;
but
on
a
sudden
comes
the
messenger
of
death
,
and
unbinds
the
Poppy
garland
,
scatters
the
heavy
cloud
that
incircled
his
miserable
head
,
and
makes
him
return
to
acts
of
life
,
that
he
may
quickly
descend
into
death
and
be
no
more
.
So
is
every
sinner
that
lies
down
in
shame
,
and
makes
his
grave
with
the
wicked
;
he
shall
indeed
rise
again
,
and
be
called
upon
by
the
voice
of
the
Archangel
,
but
then
he
shall
descend
into
sorrows
greater
then
the
reason
and
the
patience
of
a
man
,
weeping
and
shrieking
louder
then
the
grones
of
the
miserable
children
in
the
Valley
of
Hinnon
.
These
indeed
are
sad
stories
,
but
true
as
the
voice
of
God
and
the
Sermons
of
the
holy
Jesus
.
They
are
Gods
words
and
Gods
decrees
;
and
I
wish
that
all
who
profess
the
belief
of
these
,
would
consider
sadly
what
they
mean.
If
ye
believe
the
Article
of
the
Resurrection
,
then
you
know
that
in
your
body
you
shall
receive
what
you
did
in
the
body
,
whether
it
be
good
or
bad
.
It
matters
not
now
very
much
whether
our
bodies
be
beauteous
or
deformed
;
for
if
we
glorifie
God
in
our
bodies
,
God
shall
make
our
bodies
glorious
.
It
matters
not
much
whether
we
live
in
ease
and
pleasure
,
or
eat
nothing
but
bitter
herbs
:
the
body
that
lies
in
dust
and
ashes
,
that
goes
stooping
and
feeble
,
that
lodges
at
the
foot
of
the
Cross
and
dwells
in
discipline
,
shall
be
feasted
at
the
eternal
supper
of
the
Lamb.
And
ever
remember
this
,
that
beastly
pleasures
,
and
lying
lips
,
and
a
deceitful
tongue
,
and
a
heart
that
sendeth
forth
proud
things
,
are
no
good
dispositions
to
a
blessed
Resurrection
.
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
.
It
is
not
good
that
in
the
body
we
live
a
life
of
Dissolution
,
for
that
's
no
good
harmony
with
that
purpose
of
glory
which
God
designs
the
body
.
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
;
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
said
Phocyllides
;
for
we
hope
that
from
our
beds
of
darkness
we
shall
rise
into
Regions
of
light
,
and
shall
become
like
unto
God.
They
shall
partake
of
a
Resurrection
to
life
and
what
this
can
infer
is
very
obvious
.
For
i●
it
be
so
hard
to
believe
a
Resurrection
from
one
death
,
let
us
not
be
dead
in
trespasses
and
sins
,
for
a
Resurrection
from
two
deaths
will
be
harder
to
be
believ'd
,
and
harder
to
be
effected
.
But
if
any
of
you
have
lost
the
life
of
Grace
,
and
so
forfeited
all
your
title
to
a
life
of
Glory
,
betake
your selves
to
an
early
and
an
entire
piety
,
that
when
by
this
first
Resurrection
you
have
made
this
way
plain
before
your
face
,
you
may
with
confidence
expect
a
happy
Resurrection
from
your
graves
.
For
if
it
be
possible
that
the
spirit
,
when
it
is
dead
in
sin
,
can
arise
to
a
life
of
righteousness
;
much
more
it
is
easie
to
suppose
that
the
body
after
death
is
capable
of
being
restor'd
again
.
And
this
is
a
consequent
of
S.
Pauls
argument
,
If
when
ye
were
enemies
ye
were
reconciled
by
his
death
,
much
more
being
reconciled
we
shall
be
saved
by
his
life
;
plainly
declaring
that
it
is
a
harder
and
more
wonderful
thing
for
a
wicked
man
to
become
the
friend
of
God
,
then
for
one
that
is
so
,
to
be
carried
up
to
heaven
and
partake
of
his
glory
.
The
first
Resurrection
is
certainly
the
greater
miracle
:
But
he
that
hath
risen
once
,
may
rise
again
;
and
this
is
as
sure
as
that
he
that
dies
once
,
may
die
again
,
and
die
for
ever
.
But
he
who
partakes
of
the
death
of
Christ
by
Mortification
,
and
of
his
Resurrection
by
holiness
of
life
and
a
holy
Faith
,
shall
,
according
to
the
expression
of
the
Prophet
Isaiah
,
Enter
into
his
chamber
of
death
;
when
Nature
and
Gods
decree
shall
shut
the
doors
upon
him
,
and
there
he
shall
be
hidden
for
a
little
moment
:
But
then
shall
they
that
dwell
in
dust
awake
and
sing
,
with
Christs
dead
body
shall
they
arise
:
all
shall
rise
,
but
every
man
in
his
own
order
;
Christ
the
first
fruits
,
then
they
that
are
Christs
at
his
coming
.
Amen
.
I
have
now
done
with
my
Meditation
of
the
Resurrection
;
but
we
have
a
new
and
a
sadder
subject
to
consider
:
It
is
glorious
and
brave
when
a
Christian
contemplates
those
glories
which
stand
at
the
foot
of
the
Account
of
all
God's
Servants
;
but
when
we
consider
,
that
before
all
or
any
thing
of
this
happens
every
Christian
must
●wice
exuere
hominem
,
put
off
the
Old
man
,
and
then
lie
down
in
dust
and
the
dishonours
of
the
Grave
,
it
is
Vinum
Myrrhatum
,
there
is
Myrrhe
put
into
our
Wine
;
it
is
wholsom
,
but
it
will
allay
all
our
pleasures
of
that
glorious
expectation
.
But
no
man
can
escape
it
.
After
that
the
Great
Cyrus
had
rul'd
long
in
a
mighty
Empire
;
yet
there
came
a
Message
from
Heaven
,
not
so
sad
it
may
be
,
yet
as
decretory
as
the
Hand-writing
on
the
wall
that
arrested
his
Successor
Darius
,
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
Prepare
thy self
,
O
Cyrus
,
and
then
go
unto
the
Gods
;
he
laid
aside
his
Tiar
and
his
beauteous
Diadem
,
and
cover'd
his
face
with
a
cloth
,
and
in
a
single
Linen
laid
his
honour'd
head
in
a
poor
humble
Grave
;
and
none
of
us
all
can
avoid
this
sentence
.
For
if
Wit
and
Learning
,
great
Fame
and
great
Experience
,
if
wise
Notices
of
things
,
and
an
honourable
Fortune
,
if
Courage
and
Skill
,
if
Prelacy
and
an
honourable
Age
,
if
any
thing
that
could
give
Greatness
and
Immunity
to
a
wise
and
prudent
man
,
could
have
been
put
in
bar
against
a
sad
day
,
and
have
gone
for
good
plea
,
this
sad
Scene
of
Sorrows
had
not
been
the
entertainment
of
this
Assembly
.
But
tell
me
,
where
are
those
great
Masters
,
who
while
they
liv'd
flourish'd
in
their
studies
?
Iam
eorum
praebendas
alii
possident
,
&
nescio
utrum
de
iis
cogitant
;
Other
men
have
got
their
Prebends
and
their
Dignities
,
and
who
knows
whether
ever
they
remember
them
or
no
?
While
they
liv'd
they
seem'd
nothing
,
when
they
are
dead
,
every
man
for
a
while
speaks
of
them
what
they
please
,
and
afterwards
they
are
as
if
they
had
not
been
.
But
the
piety
of
the
Christian
Church
hath
made
some
little
provision
towards
an
artificial
Immortality
for
brave
and
worthy
persons
;
and
the
Friendships
,
which
our
dead
contracted
while
they
were
alive
,
require
us
to
continue
a
fair
memory
as
long
as
we
can
;
but
they
expire
in
monethly
minds
,
or
at
most
in
a
saint
and
declining
Anniversary
;

And
we
have
great
reason
so
to
do
in
this
present
sad
accident
of
the
death
of
our
late
most
Reverend
Primate
,
whose
death
the
Church
of
Ireland
hath
very
great
reason
to
deplore
;
and
we
have
great
obligation
to
remember
his
very
many
worthy
Deeds
done
for
this
poor
afflicted
and
despised
Church
.
S.
Paul
made
an
excellent
Funeral
Oration
,
as
it
were
instituting
a
Feast
of
All
Saints
,
Who
all
died
having
obtained
a
good
report
;
and
that
excellent
Preacher
in
the
11.
chap.
of
the
Hebrews
made
a
Sermon
of
their
Commemoration
.
For
since
good
men
,
while
they
are
alive
,
have
their
conversation
in
Heaven
;
when
they
are
in
Heaven
't
is
also
fit
that
they
should
in
their
good
names
live
upon
Earth
.
And
as
their
great
Examples
are
an
excellent
Sermon
to
the
living
,
and
the
praising
them
when
Envy
and
Flattery
can
have
no
Interest
to
interpose
,
as
it
is
the
best
and
most
vigorous
Sermon
and
Incentive
to
great
things
;
so
to
conceal
what
good
God
hath
wrought
by
them
,
is
great
unthankfulness
to
God
and
to
good
men
.
When
Dorcas
died
the
Apostle
came
to
see
the
dead
Corps
,
and
the
friends
of
the
deceased
expressed
their
grief
and
their
love
by
shewing
the
Coats
that
she
,
whilest
she
lived
,
wrought
with
her
own
hands
.
She
was
a
good
Needle-woman
and
a
good
Huswife
,
and
did
good
to
Mankind
in
her
little
way
,
and
that
it self
ought
not
to
be
forgotten
,
and
the
Apostle
himself
was
not
displeased
with
their
little
Sermons
,
and
that
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
which
the
women
made
upon
that
sad
interview
.
But
if
we
may
have
the
same
liberty
to
record
the
worthy
things
of
this
our
most
venerable
Father
and
Brother
,
and
if
there
remains
no
more
of
that
Envy
which
usually
obscures
the
splendour
of
living
Hero's
,
if
you
can
with
your
charitable
though
weeping
eyes
behold
the
great
gifts
of
God
with
which
he
adorned
this
great
Prelate
,
and
not
object
the
failings
of
Humanity
to
the
participation
of
the
Graces
of
the
Spirit
,
or
think
that
Gods
gifts
are
the
lesse
because
they
are
born
in
Earthen
Vessels
,
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
for
all
men
bear
Mortality
about
them
,
and
the
Cabinet
is
not
beauteous
as
the
Diamond
that
shines
within
its
bosom
;
then
we
may
without
interruption
pay
this
duty
to
Piety
,
and
Friendship
,
and
Thankfulness
,
and
deplore
our
sad
loss
by
telling
a
true
and
sad
story
of
this
great
man
,
whom
God
hath
lately
taken
from
our
eyes
.
He
was
bred
in
Cambridge
in
Sidney-college
under
Mr.
Hulet
,
a
grave
and
a
worthy
man
,
and
he
shewed
himself
not
onely
a
fruitful
Plant
by
his
great
progress
in
his
Studies
,
but
made
him
another
return
of
gratitude
,
taking
care
to
provide
a
good
Imployment
for
him
in
Ireland
,
where
he
then
began
to
be
greatly
interested
.
It
was
spoken
as
an
honour
to
Augustus
Caesar
,
that
he
gave
his
Tutor
an
honourable
Funeral
;
and
Marcus
Antoninus
erected
a
Statue
unto
his
;
and
Gratian
the
Emperour
made
his
Master
Ausonius
to
be
Consul
:
And
our
worthy
Primate
,
knowing
the
Obligation
which
they
pass
upon
us
,
who
do
Obstetricari
gravidae
animae
,
help
the
parturient
Soul
to
bring
forth
fruits
according
to
its
seminal
powers
,
was
careful
not
onely
to
reward
the
industry
of
such
persons
so
useful
to
the
Church
in
the
cultivating
infantes
palmarum
,
young
Plants
,
whose
joynts
are
to
be
stretch'd
and
made
streight
;
but
to
demonstrate
that
his
Scholar
knew
how
to
value
Learning
,
when
he
knew
so
well
how
to
reward
the
Teacher
.
Having
pass'd
the
course
of
his
studies
in
the
University
,
and
done
his
Exercise
with
that
Applause
which
is
usually
the
reward
of
pregnant
Wits
and
hard
study
,
he
was
remov'd
into
York-shire
;
where
first
in
the
City
of
York
he
was
an
assiduous
Preacher
,
but
by
the
disposition
of
the
Divine
Providence
he
happened
to
be
engaged
at
North-Alerton
in
Disputation
with
three
pragmatical
Romish
Priests
of
the
Jesuits
Order
,
whom
he
so
much
worsted
in
the
Conference
,
and
so
shamefully
disadvantaged
by
the
evidence
of
Truth
,
represented
wisely
and
learnedly
,
that
the
famous
Primate
of
York
,
Archbishop
Matthews
,
a
learned
and
an
excellent
Prelate
,
and
a
most
worthy
Preacher
,
hearing
of
that
Triumph
,
sent
for
him
and
made
him
his
Chaplain
;
in
whose
service
he
continued
till
the
death
of
the
Primate
,
but
in
that
time
had
given
so
much
testimony
of
his
great
Dexterity
in
the
Conduct
of
Ecclesiastical
and
Civil
Affairs
,
that
he
grew
dear
to
his
Master
.
In
that
Imployment
he
was
made
Prebendary
of
York
,
and
then
of
Rippon
;
the
Dean
of
which
Church
having
made
him
his
Sub-Dean
,
he
managed
the
affairs
of
that
Church
so
well
,
that
he
soon
acquir'd
a
greater
fame
,
and
entered
into
the
possession
of
many
hearts
,
and
admiration
to
those
many
more
that
knew
him
.
There
and
at
his
Parsonage
he
continued
long
to
do
the
duty
of
a
learned
and
good
Preacher
,
and
by
his
Wisdom
,
Eloquence
and
Deportment
,
so
gain'd
the
affections
of
the
Nobility
,
Gentry
and
Commons
of
that
Countrey
,
that
as
at
his
return
thither
upon
the
blessed
Restauration
of
His
most
Sacred
Majesty
he
knew
himself
oblig'd
enough
,
and
was
so
kind
as
to
give
them
a
Visit
;
so
they
by
their
coming
in
great
numbers
to
meet
him
,
their
joyful
Reception
of
him
,
their
great
Caressing
of
him
when
he
was
there
,
their
forward
hopes
to
enjoy
him
as
their
Bishop
,
their
trouble
at
his
Departure
,
their
unwillingness
to
let
him
go
away
,
gave
signal
testimonies
that
they
were
wise
and
kind
enough
to
understand
and
value
his
great
worth
.
But
while
he
lived
there
he
was
like
a
Diamond
in
the
dust
,
(
or
Lucius
Quinctius
at
the
plough
)
his
low
Fortune
covered
a
most
valuable
person
,
till
he
became
observ'd
by
Sir
Thomas
Wentworth
Lord
President
of
York
,
whom
we
all
knew
for
his
great
Excellencies
,
and
his
great
but
glorious
Misfortunes
.
This
rare
person
espied
the
great
abilities
of
Doctor
Bramhall
,
and
made
him
his
Chaplain
,
and
brought
him
into
Ireland
as
one
whom
he
believ'd
would
prove
the
most
fit
instrument
to
serve
in
that
design
,
which
for
two
years
before
his
arrival
here
he
had
greatly
meditated
and
resolved
,
the
Reformation
of
Religion
and
the
Reparation
of
the
broken
Fortunes
of
the
Church
:
The
Complaints
were
many
,
the
Abuses
great
,
the
Causes
of
the
Church
vastly
numerous
,
but
as
fast
as
they
were
brought
in
,
so
fast
they
were
by
the
Lord
Deputy
referred
back
to
Dr.
Bramhall
,
who
by
his
indefatigable
Pains
,
great
Sagacity
,
perpetual
Watchfulness
,
daily
and
hourly
Consultations
,
reduc'd
things
to
a
more
tolerable
condition
then
they
had
been
left
in
by
the
Schismatical
principles
of
some
,
and
the
unjust
Prepossessions
of
others
,
form
any
years
before
.
For
at
the
Reformation
the
Popish
Bishops
and
Priests
seemed
to
conform
,
and
did
so
,
that
keeping
their
Bishopricks
they
might
enrich
their
Kindred
and
dilapidate
the
Revenues
of
the
Church
;
which
by
pretended
Offices
,
false
Informations
,
Fee-farms
at
contemptible
Rents
,
and
ungodly
Alienations
,
were
made
low
as
Poverty
it self
,
and
unfit
to
minister
to
the
needs
of
them
that
serv'd
the
Altar
,
or
the
noblest
purposes
of
Religion
.
For
Hospitality
decayed
,
and
the
Bishops
were
easie
to
be
oppressed
by
those
that
would
;
and
they
complained
,
but
for
a
long
time
had
no
helper
,
till
God
raised
up
that
glorious
Instrument
the
Earl
of
Strafford
,
who
brought
over
with
him
as
great
affections
to
the
Church
and
to
all
publick
Interests
,
and
as
admirable
Abilities
,
as
ever
before
his
time
did
invest
and
adorn
any
of
the
Kings
Vicegerents
:
and
God
fitted
his
hand
with
an
Instrument
good
as
his
skill
was
great
.
For
the
first
Specimen
of
his
Abilities
and
Diligence
in
recovery
of
some
lost
Tithes
being
represented
to
His
late
Majesty
of
blessed
and
glorious
memory
,
it
pleased
His
Majesty
upon
the
death
of
Bishop
Downham
to
advance
the
Doctor
to
the
Bishoprick
of
D●r●y
;
which
he
not
onely
adorned
with
an
excellent
spirit
and
a
wise
Government
,
but
did
more
then
double
the
Revenue
,
not
by
taking
any
thing
from
them
to
whom
it
was
due
,
but
by
resuming
something
of
the
Churches
Patrimony
,
which
by
undue
means
was
detained
in
unfitting
hands
.
But
his
care
was
beyond
his
Diocese
,
and
his
zele
broke
out
to
warm
all
his
Brethren
;
and
though
by
reason
of
the
Favour
and
Piety
of
King
Iames
the
escheated
Counties
were
well
provided
for
their
Tithes
,
yet
the
Bishopricks
were
not
so
well
till
the
Primate
,
then
Bishop
of
Derry
,
by
the
favour
of
the
Lord
Lieutenant
and
his
own
incessant
and
assiduous
labour
and
wise
conduct
,
brought
in
divers
Impropriations
,
cancell'd
many
unjust
Alienations
,
and
did
restore
them
to
a
condition
much
more
tolerable
;
I
say
much
more
tolerable
;
for
though
he
rais'd
them
above
contempt
,
yet
they
were
not
near
to
envy
;
but
he
knew
there
could
not
in
all
times
be
wanting
too
many
that
envied
to
the
Church
every
degree
of
prosperity
:
so
Iudas
did
to
Christ
the
expence
of
Oyntment
,
and
so
Dyonisius
told
the
Priest
,
when
himself
stole
the
golden
Cloak
from
Apollo
,
and
gave
him
one
of
Arcadian
home-spun
,
that
it
was
warmer
for
him
in
Winter
and
cooler
in
Summer
.
And
forever
,
since
the
Church
by
God's
blessing
and
the
favour
of
Religious
Kings
and
Princes
,
and
Pious
Nobility
,
hath
been
endowed
with
fair
Revenues
;
inimicus
homo
,
the
Enemy
hath
not
been
wanting
by
pretences
of
Religion
to
take
away
God's
portion
from
the
Church
,
as
if
his
Word
were
intended
as
an
instrument
to
rob
his
Houses
.
But
when
the
Israelites
were
governed
by
a
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
and
God
was
their
King
,
and
Moses
his
Lieutenant
,
and
things
were
of
his
management
,
he
was
pleas'd
by
making
great
Provisions
for
them
that
ministred
in
the
service
of
the
Tabernacle
to
consign
this
truth
for
ever
,
That
Men
,
as
they
love
God
,
at
the
same
rate
are
to
make
provisions
for
his
Priests
.
For
when
himself
did
it
,
he
not
only
gave
the
48.
Cities
,
with
a
mile
of
Glebe
round
about
their
City
every
way
,
and
yet
the
whole
Country
was
but
140.
miles
long
,
or
thereabouts
,
from
Dan
to
Beersheba
;
but
besides
this
they
had
the
tithe
of
all
increase
,
the
first
fruits
,
offerings
,
vows
,
redemptions
,
and
in
short
,
they
had
24.
sorts
of
Dues
,
as
Buxtorf
relates
;
and
all
this
either
brought
to
the
Barn
home
to
them
without
trouble
,
or
else
,
as
the
nature
of
the
thing
required
,
brought
to
the
Temple
;
the
first
to
make
it
more
profitable
,
and
the
second
to
declare
that
they
received
it
not
from
the
People
but
from
God
,
not
the
Peoples
kindness
but
the
Lords
inheritance
;
insomuch
that
this
small
Tribe
of
Levi
,
which
was
not
the
40th
.
part
of
the
People
,
as
the
Scripture
computes
them
,
had
a
Revenue
almost
treble
to
any
of
the
largest
of
the
Tribes
.
I
will
not
insist
on
what
Villalpandus
observes
,
it
may
easily
be
read
in
the
45.
of
Ezekiel
concerning
that
portion
which
God
reserves
for
himself
and
his
service
,
but
whatsoever
it
be
this
I
shall
say
,
that
it
is
confessedly
a
Prophecy
of
the
Gospel
;
but
this
I
adde
,
that
they
had
as
little
to
do
,
and
much
less
than
a
Christian
Priest
,
and
yet
in
all
the
24.
courses
the
poorest
Priest
amongst
them
might
be
esteemed
a
Rich
man.
I
speak
not
this
to
upbraid
any
man
or
any
thing
but
Sacrilege
and
Murmur
,
nor
to
any
other
end
but
to
represent
upon
what
great
and
Religious
grounds
the
then
Bishop
of
Derry
did
with
so
much
care
and
assiduous
labour
endeavour
to
restore
the
Church
of
Ireland
to
that
splendor
and
fulness
;
which
as
it
is
much
conducing
to
the
honour
of
God
and
of
Religion
,
God
himself
being
the
Judge
,
so
it
is
much
more
necessary
for
you
than
it
is
for
us
,
and
so
this
wise
Prelate
rarely
well
understood
it
;
and
having
the
same
advantage
and
blessing
as
we
now
have
,
a
Gracious
King
,
and
a
Lieutenant
Patron
of
Religion
,
and
the
Church
,
he
improv'd
the
deposita
pietatis
,
as
Origen
calls
them
,
the
Gages
of
Piety
,
which
the
Religion
of
the
ancient
Princes
and
Nobles
of
this
Kingdom
had
bountifully
given
to
such
a
comfortable
competency
,
that
though
there
be
place
left
for
present
and
future
Piety
to
inlarge
it self
,
yet
no
man
hath
reason
to
be
discourag'd
in
his
duty
;
insomuch
that
as
I
have
heard
from
a
most
worthy
hand
,
that
at
his
going
into
England
he
gave
account
to
the
Archbishop
of
Canterbury
of
30000
l.
a
year
,
in
the
recovery
of
which
he
was
greatly
and
principally
instrumental
.
But
the
goods
of
this
World
are
called
waters
by
Solomon
.
Stollen
waters
are
sweet
,
and
they
are
too
unstable
to
be
stopt
:
some
of
these
waters
did
run
back
from
their
proper
chanel
,
and
return
to
another
course
than
God
and
the
Laws
intended
,
yet
his
labours
and
pious
Counsels
were
not
the
less
acceptable
to
God
and
good
men
,
and
therefore
by
a
thankful
and
honourable
recognition
the
Convocation
of
the
Church
of
Ireland
hath
transmitted
in
Record
to
posterity
their
deep
resentment
of
his
singular
services
and
great
abilities
in
this
whole
affair
.
And
this
honour
will
for
ever
remain
to
that
Bishop
of
Derry
;
he
had
a
Zerubbabel
who
repair'd
the
Temple
and
restor'd
its
beauty
,
but
he
was
the
Ioshuah
,
the
High-priest
,
who
under
him
ministred
this
blessing
to
the
Congregations
of
the
Lord.
But
his
care
was
not
determin'd
in
the
exteriour
part
onely
,
and
Accessaries
of
Religion
;
he
was
careful
,
and
he
was
prosperous
in
it
,
to
reduce
that
Divine
and
excellent
Service
of
our
Church
to
publick
and
constant
Exercise
,
to
Unity
and
Devotion
;
and
to
cause
the
Articles
of
the
Church
of
England
to
be
accepted
as
the
Rule
of
publick
confessions
and
perswasions
here
,
that
they
and
we
might
be
Populus
unius
labii
,
of
one
heart
and
one
lip
,
building
up
our
hopes
of
heaven
on
a
most
holy
Faith
;
and
taking
away
that
Shibboleth
which
made
this
Church
lisp
too
undecently
,
or
rather
in
some
little
degree
to
speak
the
speech
of
Ashdod
,
and
not
the
language
of
Canaan
;
and
the
excellent
and
wise
pains
he
took
in
this
particular
no
man
can
dehonestate
or
reproch
,
but
he
that
is
not
willing
to
confess
that
the
Church
of
England
is
the
best
Reformed
Church
in
the
world
.
But
when
the
brave
Roman
Infantry
under
the
Conduct
of
Manlius
ascended
up
to
the
Capitol
to
defend
Religion
and
their
Altars
from
the
fury
of
the
Gauls
,
they
all
pray'd
to
God
,
Us
quemadmodum
ipsi
ad
defendendum
templum
ejus
concurrissent
,
ita
ille
virtutem
e●rum
numine
suo
tueretur
:
That
as
they
came
to
defend
his
Temple
by
their
Arms
,
so
he
would
defend
their
Persons
and
that
Cause
with
his
Power
and
Divinity
.
And
this
excellent
man
in
the
Cause
of
Religion
found
the
like
blessing
which
they
prayed
for
;
God
by
the
prosperity
of
his
labours
and
a
blessed
effect
gave
testimony
not
onely
of
the
Piety
and
Wisdom
of
his
purposes
,
but
that
he
loves
to
bless
a
wise
Instrument
when
it
is
vigorously
imployed
in
a
wise
and
religious
labour
.
He
overcame
the
difficulty
in
defiance
of
all
such
pretences
as
were
made
even
from
Religion
it self
to
obstruct
the
better
procedure
of
real
and
material
Religion
.
These
were
great
things
and
matter
of
great
envy
,
and
like
the
fiery
eruptions
of
Vesuvius
might
with
the
very
ashes
of
Consumption
have
buried
another
man.
At
first
indeed
,
as
his
blessed
Master
the
most
holy
Jesus
had
,
so
he
also
had
his
Annum
acceptabilem
.
At
first
the
product
was
nothing
but
great
admiration
at
his
stupendious
parts
,
and
wonder
at
his
mighty
diligence
and
observation
of
his
unusual
zele
in
so
good
and
great
things
;
but
this
quickly
pass'd
into
the
natural
daughters
of
Envy
,
Suspicion
and
Detraction
,
the
spirit
of
Obloquy
and
Slander
.
His
zele
for
recovery
of
the
Church-revenues
was
call'd
Oppression
and
Rapine
,
Covetousness
and
Injustice
;
his
care
of
reducing
Religion
to
wise
and
justifiable
principles
was
called
Popery
and
Arminianism
,
and
I
know
not
what
names
,
which
signifie
what
the
Authors
are
pleased
to
mean
,
and
the
People
to
conster
and
to
hate
.
The
intermedial
prosperity
of
his
Person
and
Fortune
,
which
he
had
as
an
Earnest
of
a
greater
reward
to
so
well-meant
labours
,
was
suppos'd
to
be
the
production
of
Illiberal
Arts
and
ways
of
getting
;
and
the
necessary
refreshment
of
his
wearied
spirits
,
which
did
not
alwayes
supply
all
his
needs
,
and
were
sometimes
less
then
the
permissions
even
of
prudent
charity
,
they
call'd
Intemperance
:
Dederunt
enim
malum
M●telli
Naevio
poetae
;
their
own
surmises
were
the
Bills
of
Accusation
,
and
the
splendour
of
his
great
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
or
Doing
of
good
works
,
was
the
great
probation
of
all
their
Calumnies
.
But
if
Envy
be
the
accuser
,
what
can
be
the
defences
of
Innocence
?
Saucior
invidiae
morsu
,
quaerenda
medela
est
,
Dic
quibus
in
terris
sentiet
aeger
opem
?
Our
B.S.
knowing
the
unsatisfiable
angers
of
men
if
their
Money
or
Estates
were
medled
with
,
refus'd
to
divide
an
Inheritance
amongst
Brethren
;
it
was
not
to
be
imagin'd
that
this
great
person
(
invested
,
as
all
his
Brethren
were
,
with
the
infirmities
of
Mortality
,
and
yet
imployed
in
dividing
and
recovering
and
apportioning
of
Lands
)
should
be
able
to
bear
all
that
reproch
which
Jealousie
and
Suspicion
,
and
malicious
Envy
,
could
invent
against
him
.
But
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
said
Sophocles
:
And
so
did
he
;
the
Affrightments
brought
to
his
great
Fame
and
Reputation
made
him
to
walk
more
warily
,
and
do
justly
,
and
act
prudently
,
and
conduct
his
affairs
by
the
measures
of
Laws
,
as
far
as
he
understood
,
and
indeed
that
was
a
very
great
way
:
but
there
was
Aperta
justitia
,
Clausa
manus
,
Justice
was
open
,
but
his
Hand
was
shut
;
and
though
every
Slanderer
could
tell
a
story
,
yet
none
could
prove
that
ever
he
received
a
Bribe
to
blind
his
eyes
to
the
value
of
a
Pair
of
Gloves
.
It
was
his
own
Expression
,
when
he
gave
glory
to
God
who
had
preserv'd
him
innocent
.
But
because
every
mans
Cause
is
right
in
his
own
eyes
,
it
was
hard
for
him
so
to
acquit
himself
,
that
in
the
Intriques
of
Law
and
difficult
Cases
some
of
his
Enemies
should
not
seem
(
when
they
were
heard
alone
)
to
speak
reason
against
him
.
But
see
the
greatness
of
Truth
and
Prudence
,
and
how
greatly
God
stood
with
him
.
When
the
numerous
Armies
of
vexed
people
,
Turba
gravis
paci
,
placidaeque
inimica
quieti
,
heap'd
up
Catalogues
of
Accusations
,
when
the
Parliament
of
Ireland
imitating
the
violent
procedures
of
the
then
disordered
English
,
when
his
glorious
Patron
was
taken
from
his
head
,
and
he
was
disrobed
of
his
great
defences
;
when
Petitions
were
invited
and
Accusations
furnished
,
and
Calumny
was
rewarded
and
managed
with
art
and
power
,
when
there
were
above
200.
Petitions
put
in
against
him
,
and
himself
denied
leave
to
answer
by
word
of
mouth
;
when
he
was
long
imprison'd
,
and
treated
so
that
a
guilty
man
would
have
been
broken
into
affrightment
and
pitiful
and
low
considerations
;
yet
then
he
himself
standing
almost
alone
,
like
Callimachus
at
Marathon
invested
with
enemies
and
covered
with
arrows
,
defended
himself
beyond
all
the
powers
of
guiltiness
,
even
with
the
defences
of
Truth
and
the
bravery
of
Innocence
,
and
answered
the
Petitions
in
writing
,
sometimes
twenty
in
a
day
,
with
so
much
clearness
,
evidence
of
truth
,
reality
of
Fact
and
Testimony
of
Law
,
that
his
very
Enemies
were
asham'd
and
convinc'd
;
they
found
they
had
done
like
AEsops
Viper
,
they
licked
the
file
till
their
tongues
bled
;
but
himself
was
wholly
invulnerable
.
They
were
therefore
forc'd
to
leave
their
muster-rolls
and
decline
the
particulars
,
and
fall
to
their
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
to
accuse
him
for
going
about
to
subvert
the
fundamental
Laws
;
the
way
by
which
great
Strafford
and
Canterbury
fell
;
which
was
a
device
,
when
all
reasons
fail'd
,
to
oppress
the
Enemy
by
the
bold
affirmation
of
a
Conclusion
they
could
not
prove
,
they
did
like
those
Gladiatores
whom
the
Romans
call'd
Retiaries
,
when
they
could
not
stab
their
Enemies
with
their
daggers
,
they
threw
nets
over
him
,
and
cover'd
him
with
a
general
mischief
.
But
the
Martyr
King
Charles
the
First
,
of
most
glorious
and
Eternal
Memory
;
seeing
so
great
a
Champion
likely
to
be
oppress'd
with
numbers
and
despair
,
sent
what
rescue
he
could
,
his
Royal
Letter
for
his
Bail
,
which
was
hardly
granted
to
him
,
and
when
it
was
,
it
was
upon
such
hard
terms
,
that
his
very
delivery
was
a
persecution
.
So
necessary
it
was
for
them
,
who
intended
to
do
mischief
to
the
publick
,
to
take
away
the
strongest
pillars
of
the
house
.
This
thing
I
remark
to
acquit
this
great
man
from
the
tongue
of
slander
,
which
had
so
boldly
spoken
,
that
it
was
certain
something
would
stick
,
yet
was
so
impotent
and
unarm'd
,
that
it
could
not
kill
that
great
same
which
his
greater
worthiness
had
procur'd
him
.
It
was
said
of
Hippasus
the
Pythagorean
,
that
being
ask'd
how
and
what
he
had
done
:
He
answer'd
,
Nondum
nihil
,
neque
enim
adhuc
mihi
invidetur
;
I
have
done
nothing
yet
,
for
no
man
envies
me
.
He
that
does
great
things
,
cannot
avoid
the
tongues
and
teeth
of
Envy
;
but
if
calumnies
must
pass
for
evidences
,
the
bravest
Hero's
must
alwayes
be
the
most
reproched
Persons
in
the
World.
Nascitur

Every
thing
can
have
an
ill
name
and
an
ill
sense
put
upon
it
;
but
God
,
who
takes
care
of
reputations
as
he
does
of
lives
,
by
the
orders
of
his
providence
confutes
the
slander
,
ut
memoria
justorum
sit
in
benedictionibus
,
that
the
memory
of
the
righteous
man
might
be
embalm'd
with
honour
:
And
so
it
hapned
to
this
great
man
;
for
by
a
publick
Warranty
,
by
the
concurrent
consent
of
both
Houses
of
Parliament
,
the
Libellous
Petitions
against
him
,
the
false
Records
and
publick
Monuments
of
injurious
shame
were
cancell'd
,
and
he
was
restor'd
in
integrum
to
that
fame
where
his
great
labours
and
just
procedures
had
first
estated
him
;
which
,
though
it
was
but
justice
,
yet
it
was
also
such
honour
,
that
it
is
greater
then
the
virulence
of
tongues
,
which
his
worthiness
and
their
envy
had
arm'd
against
him
.
But
yet
the
great
scene
of
the
troubles
was
but
newly
open'd
.
I
shall
not
refuse
to
speak
yet
more
of
his
troubles
,
as
remembring
that
St.
Paul
,
when
he
discourses
of
the
glories
of
the
Saints
departed
,
he
tells
more
of
their
sufferings
than
of
their
prosperities
,
as
being
that
Laboratory
and
Crysable
in
which
God
makes
his
Servants
vessels
of
honour
to
his
glory
.
The
storm
quickly
grew
high
;
&
transitum
est
à
linguis
ad
gladios
,
and
that
was
indeed
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
Iniquity
had
put
on
arms
;
when
it
is
armata
nequitia
,
then
a
man
is
hard
put
to
it
.
The
Rebellion
breaking
out
the
Bishop
went
to
his
charge
at
Derry
,
and
,
because
he
was
within
the
defence
of
Walls
,
the
execrable
Traitor
Sir
Phelim
●
Neale
laid
a
snare
to
bring
him
to
a
dishonourable
death
.
For
he
wrote
a
Letter
to
the
Bishop
,
pretended
Intelligence
between
them
,
desir'd
that
according
to
their
former
agreement
such
a
Gate
might
be
deliver'd
to
him
.
The
messenger
was
not
advis'd
to
be
cautious
,
not
at
all
instructed
in
the
art
of
Secrecy
,
for
it
was
intended
that
he
should
be
search'd
,
intercepted
and
hang'd
for
ought
they
car'd
:
but
the
Arrow
was
shot
against
the
Bishop
,
that
he
might
be
accused
for
base
Conspiracy
,
and
die
with
shame
and
sad
dishonour
.
But
here
God
manifested
his
mighty
care
of
his
Servants
;
he
was
pleas'd
to
send
into
the
heart
of
the
messenger
such
an
affrightment
,
that
he
directly
ran
away
with
the
Letter
,
and
never
durst
come
near
the
Town
to
deliver
it
.
This
story
was
publish'd
by
Sir
Phelim
himself
,
who
added
,
That
if
he
could
have
thus
ensnar'd
the
Bishop
,
he
had
good
assurance
the
Town
should
have
been
his
own
:
Sed
bonitas
Dei
praevalitura
est
super
omnem
malitiam
hominis
,
The
goodness
of
God
is
greater
then
all
the
malice
of
Men
;
and
nothing
could
so
prove
how
dear
that
sacred
Life
was
to
God
,
as
his
rescue
from
the
dangers
.
Stantia
non
poterant
tecta
probare
Deos
:
To
have
kept
him
in
a
warm
house
had
been
nothing
,
unless
the
roof
had
fallen
upon
his
head
,
that
rescue
was
a
remark
of
Divine
favour
and
Providence
.
But
it
seems
Sir
Phelim's
Treason
against
the
Life
of
this
worthy
Man
had
a
Correspondent
in
the
Town
;
and
it
broke
out
speedily
;
for
what
they
could
not
effect
by
malicious
stratagem
,
they
did
in
part
by
open
force
;
they
turn'd
the
Bishop
out
of
the
Town
,
and
upon
trifling
and
unjust
pretences
search'd
his
Carriages
,
and
took
what
they
pleas'd
,
till
they
were
asham'd
to
take
more
:
they
did
worse
then
divorce
him
from
his
Church
,
for
in
all
the
Roman
Divorces
they
said
,
Tuas
tibi
res
babeto
,
Take
your
goods
and
be
gone
;
but
Plunder
was
Religion
then
.
However
,
though
the
usage
was
sad
,
yet
it
was
recompenc'd
to
him
by
his
taking
Sanctuary
in
Oxford
,
where
he
was
graciously
receiv'd
by
that
most
incomparable
and
divine
Prince
;
but
having
served
the
King
in
Yorkshire
by
his
Pen
,
and
by
his
Counsels
,
and
by
his
Interests
,
return'd
back
to
Ireland
,
where
under
the
excellent
conduct
of
his
Grace
the
now
Lord
Lieutenant
,
he
ran
the
risque
and
fortune
of
oppressed
Vertue
.
But
God
having
still
resolv'd
to
afflict
us
,
the
good-man
was
forc'd
into
the
fortune
of
the
Patriarchs
,
to
leave
his
Countrey
and
his
Charges
,
and
seek
for
safety
and
bread
in
a
strange
Land
;
for
so
the
Prophets
were
us'd
to
do
,
wandring
up
and
down
in
sheeps-clothing
,
but
poor
as
they
were
the
world
was
not
worthy
of
them
;
and
this
worthy
man
,
despising
the
shame
,
took
up
his
Cross
and
followed
his
Master
.
Exilium
causa
ipsa
jubet
sibi
dulce
videri
,
Et
desiderium
dulce
levat
patriae
.
He
was
not
asham'd
to
suffer
where
the
Cause
was
honourable
and
glorious
;
but
so
God
provided
for
the
needs
of
his
banished
,
and
sent
a
man
who
could
minister
comfort
to
the
afflicted
,
and
courage
to
the
persecuted
,
and
resolutions
to
the
tempted
,
and
strength
to
that
Religion
for
which
they
all
suffered
.
And
here
this
great
man
was
indeed
triumphant
;
this
was
one
of
the
last
and
best
scenes
of
his
life
:
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
The
last
dayes
are
the
best
witnesses
of
a
man.
But
so
it
was
,
that
he
stood
up
in
publick
and
brave
defence
for
the
Doctrine
and
Discipline
of
the
Church
of
England
;
First
,
by
his
Sufferings
and
great
Example
,
for
Verbis
tantùm
philosophari
non
est
Doctoris
sed
Histrionis
,
To
talk
well
and
not
to
do
bravely
is
for
a
Comedian
,
not
a
Divine
:
But
this
great
man
did
both
;
he
suffered
his
own
Calamity
with
great
courage
,
and
by
his
wise
Discourses
strengthened
the
hearts
of
others
.
For
there
wanted
not
diligent
Tempters
in
the
Church
of
Rome
,
who
(
taking
advantage
of
the
Afflictions
of
His
Sacred
Majesty
,
in
which
state
Men
commonly
suspect
every
thing
,
and
like
men
in
sickness
are
willing
to
change
from
side
to
side
,
hoping
for
ease
and
finding
none
)
flew
at
Royal
Game
,
and
hop'd
to
draw
away
the
King
from
that
Religion
which
His
most
Royal
Father
,
the
best
Man
and
the
wisest
Prince
in
the
world
,
had
seal'd
with
the
best
Bloud
in
Christendom
;
and
which
Himself
suck'd
in
with
His
Education
,
and
had
confirm'd
by
Choice
and
Reason
,
and
confess'd
publickly
and
bravely
,
and
hath
since
restor'd
prosperously
.
Millitie●e
was
the
man
,
witty
and
bold
enough
to
attempt
a
zelous
and
a
foolish
undertaking
,
and
address'd
himself
with
ignoble
indeed
but
witty
arts
to
perswade
the
King
to
leave
what
was
dearer
to
Him
then
His
Eyes
.
It
is
true
,
it
was
a
Wave
dash'd
against
a
Rock
,
and
an
Arrow
shot
against
the
Sun
,
it
could
not
reach
him
;
but
the
Bishop
of
Derry
turn'd
it
also
,
and
made
it
to
fall
upon
the
shooters
head
;
for
he
made
so
ingenious
,
so
learned
and
so
accute
Reply
to
that
book
,
he
so
discover'd
the
Errors
of
the
Roman
Church
,
retorted
the
Arguments
,
stated
the
Questions
,
demonstrated
the
Truth
,
and
sham'd
their
Procedures
,
that
nothing
could
be
a
greater
argument
of
the
Bishops
Learning
,
great
Parts
,
deep
Judgment
,
Quickness
of
Apprehension
,
and
Sincerity
in
the
Catholick
and
Apostolick
Faith
,
or
of
the
Follies
and
Prevarications
of
the
Church
of
Rome
.
He
wrote
no
Apologies
for
himself
;
though
it
were
much
to
be
wish'd
that
,
as
Iunius
wrote
his
own
Life
,
or
Moses
his
own
story
,
so
we
might
have
understood
from
himself
how
great
things
God
had
done
for
him
and
by
him
;
but
all
that
he
permitted
to
God
,
and
was
silent
in
his
own
Defences
;
Gloriosius
enim
est
injuriam
tacendo
fugere
,
quàm
respondendo
superare
.
But
when
the
Honour
and
Conscience
of
his
King
;
and
the
Interest
of
a
true
Religion
,
was
at
stake
,
the
fire
burn'd
within
him
,
and
at
last
he
spake
with
his
tongue
;
he
cried
out
like
the
son
of
Croesus
,
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
Take
heed
and
meddle
not
with
the
King
;
His
Person
is
too
sacred
,
and
Religion
too
dear
to
Him
to
be
assaulted
by
Vulgar
hands
.
In
short
,
he
acquited
himself
in
this
affair
with
so
much
Truth
and
Piety
,
Learning
and
Judgment
,
that
in
those
Papers
his
memory
will
last
unto
very
late
succeeding
Generations
.
But
this
most
Reverend
Prelate
found
a
nobler
adversary
and
a
braver
scene
for
his
contention
.
He
found
that
the
Roman
Priests
being
wearied
and
baffled
by
the
wise
Discourses
and
pungent
Arguments
of
the
English
Divines
,
had
studiously
declined
any
more
to
dispute
the
particular
Questions
against
us
,
but
fell
at
last
upon
a
general
Charge
,
imputing
to
the
Church
of
England
the
great
crime
of
Schism
;
and
by
this
they
thought
they
might
with
most
probability
deceive
unwary
and
unskilful
Readers
;
for
they
saw
the
Schism
,
and
they
saw
we
had
left
them
,
and
because
they
consider'd
not
the
Causes
,
they
resolv'd
to
out-face
us
in
the
Charge
.
But
now
it
was
that
dignum
nactus
argumentum
,
having
an
Argument
fit
to
imploy
his
great
abilities
,
Consecrat
hic
praesul
calamum
calamlque
labores
Ante
aras
Domino
laeta
trophaea
suo
;
the
Bishop
now
dedicates
his
labours
to
the
service
of
God
and
of
his
Church
,
undertook
the
Question
,
and
in
a
full
Discourse
proves
the
Church
of
Rome
,
not
only
to
be
guilty
of
the
Schism
by
making
it
necessary
to
depart
from
them
,
but
they
did
actuate
the
Schisms
,
and
themselves
made
the
first
separation
in
the
great
point
of
the
Popes
Supremacy
,
which
was
the
Palladium
for
which
they
principally
contended
.
He
made
it
appear
that
the
Popes
of
Rome
were
Usurpers
of
the
rights
of
Kings
and
Bishops
,
that
they
brought
in
new
Doctrines
in
every
Age
,
that
they
impos'd
their
own
devices
upon
Christendom
as
Articles
of
Faith
,
that
they
prevaricated
the
Doctrines
of
the
Apostles
,
that
the
Church
of
England
only
return'd
to
her
Primitive
purity
,
that
she
joyn'd
with
Christ
and
his
Apostles
,
that
she
agreed
in
all
the
Sentiments
of
the
Primitive
Church
.
He
stated
the
questions
so
wisely
,
and
conducted
them
so
prudently
,
and
handled
them
so
learnedly
,
that
I
may
truly
say
,
they
were
never
more
materially
confuted
by
any
man
,
since
the
questions
have
so
unhappily
disturbed
Christendom
.
Verum
hoc
eos
malè
ussit
:
and
they
finding
themselves
smitten
under
the
fifth
rib
,
set
up
an
old
Champion
of
their
own
,
a
Goliah
to
fight
against
the
Armies
of
Israel
;
the
old
Bishop
of
Chalcedon
,
known
to
many
of
us
,
replied
to
this
excellent
Book
;
but
was
so
answer'd
by
a
Rejoynder
made
by
the
Lord
Bishop
of
Derry
,
in
which
he
so
press'd
the
former
Arguments
,
refuted
the
Cavils
,
brought
in
so
many
impregnable
Authorities
and
Probations
,
and
added
so
many
moments
and
weights
to
his
discourse
,
that
the
pleasures
of
reading
the
Book
would
be
the
greatest
,
if
the
profit
to
the
Church
of
God
were
not
greater
.
Flumina
tum
lactis
,
tum
flumina
nectaris
ibant
,
Flavaque
de
viridi
stillabant
ilice
mella
.
For
so
Sampson's
riddle
was
again
expounded
;
Out
of
the
strong
came
meat
,
and
out
of
the
eater
came
sweetness
;
his
Arguments
were
strong
,
and
the
Eloquence
was
sweet
and
delectable
;
and
though
there
start
up
another
combatant
against
him
,
yet
he
had
onely
the
honour
to
fall
by
the
hands
of
Hector
:
still
haeret
lateri
lethalis
arundo
;
the
headed
arrow
went
in
so
far
,
that
it
could
not
be
drawn
out
,
but
the
barbed
steel
stuck
behind
.
And
whenever
men
will
desire
to
be
satisfied
in
those
great
questions
,
the
Bishop
of
Derry's
book
shall
be
his
Oracle
.
I
will
not
insist
upon
his
other
excellent
writings
;
but
it
is
known
every
where
with
what
Piety
and
acumen
he
wrote
against
the
Manichean
Doctrine
of
Fatal
necessity
,
which
a
late
witty
man
had
pretended
to
adorn
with
a
new
Vizor
;
but
this
excellent
person
wash'd
off
the
Cerusse
and
the
meretricious
Paintings
,
rarely
well
asserted
the
oeconomy
of
the
Divine
Providence
,
and
having
once
more
triumph'd
over
his
Adversary
,
plenus
victoriarum
&
trophaeorum
betook
himself
to
the
more
agreeable
attendance
upon
Sacred
Offices
,
and
having
usefully
and
wisely
discours'd
of
the
sacred
Rite
of
Confirmation
,
impos'd
hands
upon
the
most
Illustrious
Princes
,
the
Dukes
of
York
and
Gloucester
,
and
the
Princess
Royal
,
and
ministred
to
them
the
promise
of
the
holy
Spirit
,
and
ministerially
establish'd
them
in
the
Religion
and
Service
of
the
holy
Jesus
.
And
one
thing
more
I
shall
remark
,
that
at
his
leaving
those
Parts
upon
the
Kings
Return
,
some
of
the
Remonstrant
Ministers
of
the
Low-Countries
coming
to
take
their
leaves
of
this
great
man
,
and
desiring
that
by
his
means
the
Church
of
England
would
be
kind
to
them
,
he
had
reason
to
grant
it
,
because
they
were
learned
men
,
and
in
many
things
of
a
most
excellent
belief
;
yet
he
reprov'd
them
,
and
gave
them
caution
against
it
,
that
they
approched
too
near
and
gave
too
much
countenance
to
the
great
and
dangerous
errors
of
the
Socinians
.
He
thus
having
serv'd
God
and
the
King
abroad
,
God
was
pleas'd
to
return
to
the
King
and
to
us
all
,
as
in
the
dayes
of
old
,
and
we
sung
the
song
of
David
.
In
convertendo
captivitatem
Sion
:
When
King
David
and
all
his
servants
returned
to
Ierusalem
,
this
great
person
having
trode
in
the
Wine-press
was
called
to
drink
of
the
Wine
,
and
as
an
honorary
Reward
of
his
great
services
and
abilities
was
chosen
Primate
of
this
National
Church
:
In
which
time
we
are
to
look
upon
him
,
as
the
King
and
the
Kings
great
Vicegerent
did
,
as
a
person
concerning
whose
abilities
the
World
had
too
great
testimony
ever
to
make
a
doubt
.
It
is
true
,
he
was
in
the
declension
of
his
age
and
health
;
but
his
very
Ruines
were
goodly
;
and
they
who
saw
the
broken
heaps
of
Pompey's
Theatre
,
and
the
crushed
Obelisks
,
and
the
old
face
of
beauteous
Philaenium
,
could
not
but
admire
the
disordered
glories
of
such
magnificent
structures
,
which
were
venerable
in
their
very
dust
.
He
ever
was
us'd
to
overcome
all
difficulties
,
onely
Mortality
was
too
hard
for
him
;
but
still
his
Vertues
and
his
Spirit
was
immortal
,
he
still
took
great
care
,
and
still
had
new
and
noble
designs
,
and
propos'd
to
himself
admirable
things
.
He
govern'd
his
Province
with
great
justice
and
sincerity
;
Unus
amplo
consulens
pastor
gregi
,
Somnos
tuetur
omnium
solus
vigil
.
And
had
this
remark
in
all
his
Government
,
that
as
he
was
a
great
hater
of
Sacrilege
,
so
he
professed
himself
a
publick
enemy
to
Non-residence
,
and
often
would
declare
wisely
and
religiously
against
it
,
allowing
it
in
no
case
but
of
Necessity
or
the
greater
good
of
the
Church
.
There
are
great
things
spoken
of
his
Predecessor
S.
Patrick
,
that
he
founded
700.
Churches
and
Religious
Convents
,
that
he
ordain'd
5000.
Priests
,
and
with
his
own
hands
consecrated
350.
Bishops
.
How
true
the
story
is
I
know
not
;
but
we
were
all
witnesses
that
the
late
Primate
,
whose
memory
we
now
celebrate
,
did
by
an
extraordinary
contingency
of
Providence
in
one
day
consecrate
two
Archbishops
and
ten
Bishops
;
and
did
benefit
to
almost
all
the
Churches
in
Ireland
,
and
was
greatly
instrumental
to
the
Re-endowments
of
the
whole
Clergy
;
and
in
the
greatest
abilities
and
incomparable
industry
was
inferiour
to
none
of
his
most
glorious
Antecessours
.
Since
the
Canonization
of
Saints
came
into
the
Church
,
we
find
no
Irish
Bishop
canoniz'd
,
except
S.
Laurence
of
Dublin
,
and
S.
Malachias
of
Down
;
indeed
Richard
of
Armagh's
Canonization
was
propounded
,
but
not
effected
;
but
the
Character
which
was
given
of
that
learned
Primate
by
Trithemius
does
exactly
fit
this
our
late
Father
;
Vir
in
Divinis
Scripturis
eruditus
,
secularis
Philosophiae
jurísque
Canonici
non
ignarus
,
clarus
ingenio
,
sermone
scholasticus
,
in
declamandis
sermonibus
ad
populum
excellentis
industriae
:
He
was
learned
in
the
Scriptures
,
skill'd
in
secular
Philosophy
,
and
not
unknowing
in
the
Civil
and
Canon
Laws
,
(
in
which
studies
I
wish
the
Clergy
were
with
some
carefulness
and
diligence
still
more
conversant
)
he
was
of
an
excellent
spirit
,
a
scholar
in
his
discourses
,
an
early
and
industrious
Preacher
to
the
people
.
And
as
if
there
were
a
more
particular
sympathy
between
their
souls
,
our
Primate
had
so
great
a
Veneration
to
his
memory
,
that
he
purpos'd
,
if
he
had
liv'd
,
to
have
restor'd
his
Monument
in
Dundalke
,
which
Time
,
or
Impiety
,
or
Unthankfulness
had
either
omitted
or
destroyed
.
So
great
a
lover
he
was
of
all
true
and
inherent
worth
,
that
he
lov'd
it
in
the
very
memory
of
the
dead
,
and
to
have
such
great
Examples
transmitted
to
the
intuition
and
imitation
of
posterity
.
At
his
coming
to
the
Primacy
he
knew
he
should
at
first
espy
little
besides
the
Ruines
of
Discipline
,
a
Harvest
of
Thorns
,
and
Heresies
prevailing
in
the
hearts
of
the
People
,
the
Churches
possess'd
by
Wolves
and
Intruders
,
Mens
hearts
greatly
estranged
from
true
Religion
;
and
therefore
he
set
himself
to
weed
the
fields
of
the
Church
;
he
treated
the
Adversaries
sometimes
sweetly
,
sometimes
he
confuted
them
learnedly
,
sometimes
he
rebuk'd
them
sharply
.
He
visited
his
Charges
diligently
,
and
in
his
own
person
,
not
by
Proxies
and
instrumental
Deputations
:
Quaerens
non
nostra
,
sednos
,
&
quae
sunt
Iesu
Christi
;
he
design'd
nothing
that
we
knew
of
but
the
Redintegration
of
Religion
,
the
Honour
of
God
and
the
King
,
the
Restoring
of
collapsed
Discipline
,
and
the
Renovation
of
Faith
and
the
Service
of
God
in
the
Churches
.
And
still
he
was
indefatigable
,
and
,
even
as
the
last
scene
of
his
life
,
intended
to
undertake
a
a
Regal
Visitation
.
Quid
enim
vultis
me
otiosum
à
Domino
comprehendi
?
said
one
;
he
was
not
willing
that
God
should
take
him
unimployed
:
But
,
good
man
,
he
felt
his
Tabernacle
ready
to
fall
in
pieces
,
and
could
go
no
further
,
for
God
would
have
no
more
work
done
by
that
hand
;
he
therefore
espying
this
,
put
his
house
in
order
,
and
had
lately
visited
his
Diocese
,
and
done
what
he
then
could
to
put
his
Charge
in
order
;
for
he
had
a
good
while
since
receiv'd
the
sentence
of
death
within
himself
,
and
knew
he
was
shortly
to
render
an
account
of
his
stewardship
;
he
therefore
upon
a
brisk
alarm
of
death
,
which
God
sent
him
the
last
Ianuary
,
made
his
Will
;
in
which
,
besides
the
prudence
and
presence
of
spirit
manifested
in
making
just
and
wise
settlement
of
his
Estate
,
and
provisions
for
his
Descendants
;
at
midnight
,
and
in
the
trouble
of
his
sickness
and
circumstances
of
addressing
death
,
still
kept
a
special
sentiment
and
made
confession
of
Gods
admirable
mercies
,
and
gave
thanks
that
God
had
permitted
him
to
live
to
see
the
blessed
Restauration
of
His
Majesty
and
the
Church
of
England
,
confess'd
his
Faith
to
be
the
same
as
ever
,
gave
praises
to
God
that
he
was
born
and
bred
up
in
this
Religion
,
and
prayed
to
God
and
hop'd
he
should
die
in
the
Communion
of
this
Church
,
which
he
declar'd
to
be
the
most
pure
and
Apostolical
Church
in
the
whole
world
.
He
prayed
to
God
to
pardon
his
frailties
and
infirmities
,
relied
upon
the
mercies
of
God
and
the
merits
of
Jesus
Christ
,
and
with
a
singular
sweetness
resign'd
up
his
soul
into
the
hands
of
his
Redeemer
.
But
God
,
who
is
the
great
Choragus
and
Master
of
the
Scenes
of
Life
and
Death
,
was
not
pleas'd
then
to
draw
the
Curtains
;
there
was
an
Epilogue
to
his
Life
yet
to
be
acted
and
spoken
.
He
return'd
to
actions
and
life
,
and
went
on
in
the
methods
of
the
same
procedure
as
before
;
was
desirous
still
to
establish
the
affairs
of
the
Church
,
complain'd
of
some
disorders
which
he
purpos'd
to
redress
,
girt
himself
to
the
work
;
but
though
his
spirit
was
willing
,
yet
his
flesh
was
weak
;
and
as
the
Apostles
in
the
Vespers
of
Christs
Passion
,
so
he
in
the
Eve
of
his
own
Dissolution
was
heavy
,
not
to
sleep
,
but
heavy
unto
death
,
and
look'd
for
the
last
warning
,
which
seiz'd
on
him
in
the
midst
of
business
;
and
though
it
was
sudden
,
yet
it
could
not
be
unexpected
,
or
unprovided
by
surprize
,
and
therefore
could
be
no
other
then
that
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
which
Augustus
us'd
to
wish
unto
himself
,
a
civil
and
well-natur'd
death
,
without
the
amazement
of
troublesom
circumstances
,
or
the
great
cracks
of
a
falling
house
,
or
the
convulsions
of
impatience
.
Seneca
tells
that
Bassus
Aufidius
was
wont
to
say
,
Sperare
se
nullum
dolorem
esse
in
illo
extremo
anhelitu
,
si
tamen
esset
,
habere
aliquantum
in
ipsa
brevitate
solatii
:
He
hop'd
that
the
pains
of
the
last
Dis●olution
were
little
or
none
;
or
if
they
were
it
was
full
of
comfort
that
they
could
be
but
short
.
It
happened
so
to
this
excellent
Man
;
his
Passive
Fortitude
had
been
abundantly
tried
before
,
and
therefore
there
was
the
less
need
of
it
now
;
his
active
Graces
had
been
abundantly
demonstrated
by
the
great
and
good
things
he
did
,
&
therefore
his
last
scene
was
not
so
laborious
,
but
God
call'd
him
away
something
after
the
manner
of
Moses
,
which
the
Jews
express
by
Osculum
oris
Dei
,
The
Kiss
of
Gods
mouth
;
that
is
,
a
death
indeed
foresignified
,
but
gentle
,
and
serene
,
and
without
temptation
.
To
summe
up
all
;
He
was
a
wise
Prelate
,
a
learned
Doctor
,
a
just
Man
,
a
true
Friend
,
a
great
Benefactour
to
others
,
a
thankful
Beneficiary
where
he
was
oblig'd
himself
.
He
was
a
faithful
Servant
to
his
Masters
,
a
Loyal
Subjest
to
the
King
,
a
zelous
Assertor
of
his
Religion
against
Popery
on
one
side
,
and
Fanaticism
on
the
other
.
The
practice
of
his
Religion
was
not
so
much
in
Forms
and
exteriour
Ministries
,
though
he
was
a
great
observer
of
all
the
publick
Rites
and
Ministries
of
the
Church
,
as
it
was
in
doing
good
for
others
.
He
was
like
Myson
,
whom
the
Scythian
Anarchasis
so
greatly
prais'd
,
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
he
govern'd
his
family
well
,
he
gave
to
all
their
due
of
maintenance
and
duty
,
he
did
great
benefit
to
mankind
;
he
had
the
fate
of
the
Apostle
S.
Paul
,
he
pass'd
through
evil
report
and
good
report
,
as
a
deceiver
and
yet
true
.
He
was
a
man
of
great
business
and
great
resort
:
Semper
aliquis
in
Cydonis
domo
,
as
the
Corinthian
said
;
There
was
alwayes
somebody
in
Cydon's
house
.
He
was
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
〈◊〉
,
he
divided
his
life
into
labour
and
his
book
;
he
took
care
of
his
Churches
when
he
was
alive
,
and
even
after
his
death
,
having
left
500
l.
for
the
Repair
of
his
Cathedral
of
Armagh
and
S.
Peters
Church
in
Drogheda
.
He
was
an
excellent
Scholar
,
and
rarely
well
accomplish'd
;
first
instructed
to
great
excellency
by
natural
parts
,
and
then
consummated
by
study
and
experience
.
Melanchthon
was
us'd
to
say
that
himself
was
a
Logician
,
Pomeranus
a
Grammarian
,
Iustus
Ionas
an
Orator
,
but
that
Luther
was
all
these
.
It
was
greatly
true
of
him
,
that
the
single
perfections
which
make
many
men
eminent
,
were
united
in
this
Primate
and
made
him
illustrious
.

It
will
be
hard
to
find
his
Equal
in
all
things
:
Fortasse
tanquam
Phoenix
anno
quingentosimo
naseitur
,
(
that
I
may
use
the
words
of
Seneca
)
nec
est
mirum
ex

magna
generari
mediocria
&
in
turbam
nascentia
saepe
fortuna
producit
:
eximia
vero
ipsa
raritate
commendat
.
For
in
him
was
visible
the
great
lines
of
Hooker's
Judiciousness
,
of
Iewel
's
Learning
,
of
the
Accuteness
of
Bishop
Andrews
.
He
was
skill'd
in
more
great
things
then
one
;
and
,
as
one
said
of
Phidias
,
he
could
not
onely
make
excellent
statues
of
Ivory
,
but
he
could
work
in
Stone
and
Brass
.
He
shewed
his
Equanimity
in
Poverty
,
and
his
Justice
in
Riches
;
he
was
useful
in
his
Countrey
,
and
profitable
in
his
Banishment
;
for
,
as
Paraeus
was
at
Anvilla
,
Luther
at
Wittenburg
,
S.
Athanasius
and
S.
Chrysostom
in
their
Banishment
,
S.
Hierom
in
his
Retirement
at
Bethlehem
,
they
were
Oracles
to
them
that
needed
it
;
so
was
he
in
Holland
and
France
,
where
he
was
abroad
;
and
,
beside
the
particular
endearments
which
his
friends
receiv'd
from
him
,
for
he
did
do
relief
to
his
brethron
that
wanted
,
and
supplied
the
Souldiers
out
of
his
store
in
York-shire
,
when
himself
could
but
ill
spare
it
;
but
he
receiv'd
publick
thanks
from
the
Convocation
of
which
he
was
President
,
and
publick
Justification
from
the
Parliament
where
he
was
Speaker
;
so
that
although
,
as
one
said
,
Miràculi
instar
vitae
iter
,
si
longum
,
sine
offensione
percurrere
;
yet
no
man
had
greater
enemies
,
and
no
man
had
greater
justifications
.
But
God
hath
taken
out
Elijah
from
our
heads
this
day
.
I
pray
God
that
at
least
his
Mantle
may
be
left
behind
,
and
that
his
spirit
may
be
doubled
upon
his
Successour
;
and
that
we
may
all
meet
together
with
him
at
the
right
hand
of
the
Lamb
,
where
every
man
shall
receive
according
to
his
deeds
,
whether
they
be
good
or
whether
they
be
evil
.
I
conclude
with
the
words
of
Caius
Plinius
,
Equidem
beatos
puto
quibus
Deorum
munere
datum
est
,
aut
facere
scribenda
,
aut
scribere
legenda
.
He
wrote
many
things
fit
to
be
read
,
and
did
very
many
things
worthy
to
be
written
;
which
if
we
wisely
imitate
,
we
may
hope
to
meet
him
in
the
Resurrection
of
the
just
,
and
feast
with
him
in
the
eternal
Supper
of
the
Lamb
,
there
to
sing
perpetual
Anthems
to
the
honour
of
God
the
Father
,
Son
and
Holy
Ghost
,
to
whom
be
all
honour
,
&c.
