branch_n of_o the_o same_o letter_n and_o part_n of_o the_o same_o representation_n 3._o the_o three_o and_o last_o thing_n i_o have_v to_o remark_n to_o you_o in_o this_o particular_a be_v that_o draw_v near_o to_o his_o end_n he_o say_v in_o the_o hear_n of_o some_o of_o his_o servant_n that_o his_o profession_n in_o the_o particular_a case_n for_o which_o he_o suffer_v be_v real_a and_o conscientious_a and_o not_o proceed_v from_o any_o finist_a end_n that_o he_o have_v the_o very_a same_o thought_n of_o the_o present_a state_n of_o affair_n which_o he_o have_v at_o first_o and_o that_o if_o the_o same_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v act_v over_o again_o he_o will_v quit_v all_o that_o he_o have_v in_o this_o world_n rather_o than_o violate_v his_o conscience_n and_o in_o further_a confirmation_n of_o this_o in_o less_o than_o a_o hour_n before_o he_o die_v he_o put_v up_o these_o two_o hearty_a and_o earnest_a petition_n to_o almighty_a god_n 1._o that_o god_n will_v bless_v and_o preserve_v this_o poor_a suffer_a church_n which_o by_o this_o revolution_n be_v almost_o destroy_v 2._o that_o he_o will_v bless_v and_o preserve_v the_o king_n the_o queen_n and_o the_o prince_n and_o in_o his_o due_a time_n to_o restore_v they_o to_o their_o just_a and_o undoubted_a right_n and_o now_o sir_n you_o see_v the_o make_n and_o composition_n of_o these_o his_o grace_n principle_n and_o practice_n you_o see_v their_o very_a inward_o and_o have_v a_o window_n open_a into_o his_o breast_n you_o plain_o perceive_v his_o conscience_n and_o his_o uprightness_n in_o this_o whole_a affair_n and_o you_o have_v the_o testimony_n of_o his_o last_o breath_n and_o his_o expire_a prayer_n he_o be_v so_o well_o satisfy_v both_o of_o the_o eternal_a truth_n of_o those_o principle_n by_o which_o he_o act_v and_o of_o his_o own_o sincerity_n in_o live_v up_o to_o they_o and_o suffer_v for_o they_o that_o he_o venture_v his_o soul_n in_o the_o same_o bottom_n with_o they_o close_v up_o his_o life_n with_o a_o profession_n of_o they_o and_o make_v they_o the_o subject_a of_o his_o last_o recommendatory_a prayer_n i_o must_v confess_v this_o inference_n need_v a_o apology_n for_o if_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n itself_o do_v not_o sufficient_o testify_v this_o as_o it_o certain_o do_v i_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o any_o man_n who_o know_v he_o do_v ever_o think_v otherwise_o or_o in_o the_o least_o imagine_v but_o that_o he_o proceed_v with_o the_o high_a sincerity_n but_o since_o we_o live_v in_o a_o age_n where_o man_n oftentimes_o speak_v more_o than_o they_o think_v and_o because_o they_o themselves_o be_v apt_a to_o act_v upon_o corrupt_a end_n be_v willing_a to_o charge_v the_o same_o upon_o other_o in_o their_o own_o justification_n it_o may_v perhaps_o not_o be_v altogether_o unseasonable_a to_o make_v good_a that_o by_o undeniable_a evidence_n although_o all_o man_n in_o their_o own_o conscience_n do_v already_o believe_v it_o and_o if_o the_o less_o of_o all_o this_o world_n and_o the_o venture_v our_o hope_n in_o the_o next_o in_o behalf_n of_o a_o man_n principle_n be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a and_o convince_a proof_n of_o his_o satisfaction_n and_o sincerity_n in_o they_o then_o either_o there_o be_v no_o such_o thing_n in_o the_o world_n or_o they_o can_v never_o be_v know_v i_o be_o now_o come_v to_o the_o last_o period_n of_o this_o great_a and_o holy_a prelate_n life_n and_o all_o that_o i_o shall_v represent_v to_o you_o be_v that_o his_o memory_n and_o intellectual_n remain_v perfect_a to_o the_o last_o moment_n and_o even_o his_o sense_n also_o a_o very_a little_a time_n before_o he_o die_v he_o call_v for_o a_o common-prayer-book_n of_o the_o small_a print_n and_o turn_v to_o the_o commendatory_a prayer_n and_o order_v it_o to_o be_v read_v and_o that_o be_v perform_v he_o compose_v himself_o more_o solemn_o for_o his_o departure_n he_o put_v his_o hand_n and_o arm_n down_o to_o both_o his_o side_n and_o in_o a_o manner_n lay_v out_o himself_o and_o will_v have_v his_o head_n lay_v lowere_v and_o with_o great_a willingness_n and_o cheerfulness_n submit_v himself_o to_o the_o 〈◊〉_d of_o death_n the_o time_n his_o age_n and_o other_o circumstance_n you_o will_v see_v in_o the_o postseript_n when_o you_o read_v the_o inscription_n on_o his_o monument_n compose_v by_o himself_o and_o direct_v by_o he_o to_o be_v engrave_v thereon_o he_o be_v bury_v in_o fresin●field_n church-yard_n against_o the_o south_n wall_n of_o the_o church_n by_o his_o own_o appointment_n and_o thus_o sir_n i_o have_v give_v you_o a_o true_a though_o very_o imperfect_a account_v of_o the_o pious_a and_o exemplary_a behaviour_n of_o our_o late_a most_o reverend_a archbishop_n in_o his_o last_o sickness_n and_o of_o his_o death_n and_o i_o desire_v you_o will_v account_v it_o what_o in_o truth_n it_o be_v very_o desective_a and_o that_o there_o be_v many_o other_o passage_n relate_v to_o his_o abundant_a charity_n and_o beneficence_n his_o memorible_a edifice_n and_o endowment_n which_o equal_o deserve_v to_o be_v recommend_v to_o we_o and_o to_o be_v
