Then all care is taken to get in Beedles Staves , and the in●●gnia of the Vniversity , to prepare for his Lordships comming , the Deane of Christ-Church the Vice-Chauncellor his doores are broken open by assistance of Souldiers , but nothing found there , the Presidents of Corpus-Christi the pro-Vice-Chancellor his in like manner , but nothing there : At last when the Earle comes most pitifully fetcht in with a few visitors and a sorty Company of expectant Boyes , Master Cheynell entertaynes him with an English speech , and tells him that the Beedles staves had a double guilt , ( the wit of the new University ) and therefore could not bee had to attend him : only exhorts him to believe and to bee confident , that the more vigerous hee should bee in that designed execution , the more acceptable it would bee in the sight of God , and if hee would not take his word for it , hee should take Gods word , and so presents to him a great Bible without Liturgy or Apocrypha , which was to supply the place of the Beedles staves to conduct him to his lodging .

     summary: But many more remain in private hands , of which one is of Symony ; and I wish the World might see it , that it might undeceive some Patrons , who think they have discharg'd that great and dangerous trust , both to God and man , if they take no money for a Living , though it may be parted with for other ends less justifiable . It may not be said that Dr. Sanderson was accomplish'd with these , and all the other requisites requir'd in a Bishop , so as to be able to answer them exactly ; but it may be affirm'd , as a good preparation , that he had at the Age of 73 years ( for he was so old at the King's return ) fewer faults to be pardon'd by God or man , than are apparent in others in these days , in which ( God knows ) we fall so short of that visible sanctity and zeal to God's glory , which was apparent in the days of primitive Christianity .
