Peutre Heylyn from whom the said Grono-ap Heylyn descended in a direct Line removed not their station for all the Ages past but continued their Seat until the year An. Dom. 1637. At which time Mr. Rowland Heylyn Alderman and Sheriff of London and Cousin German to Dr. Heylyn's Father dying without Issue-male the Seat was transferred into another Family Into which the Heiresses married This Mr. Rowland Heylyn was a man of singular Goodness and Piety that before his Death caused the Welch or Brittish Bible to be printed at his own charge in a portable Volume for the benefit of his Country men which was before in a large Church Folio also the Practice of Piety in Welch a Book though common not to be despised besides a Welch Dictionary for the better understanding of that Language All which certainly was a most pious work notwithstanding their opinion to the contrary who think that the Bible in a vulgar Tongue is not for Edification but Destruction Yet God hath been pleased in all Ages to stir up some devout men of publick Spirits as Sixtus Senensis the Monk confesseth that Christians may read the holy Bible 〈◊〉 their own Edification and Comfort and not be kept hood-wink'd in blindness and heathenish ignorance Not to mention what other Nations hath done King Alfred caused both the Old and New Testament to be published in the vulgar Tongue for the benefit of this Land and in the Reign of Richard the Second the whole Scripture was set forth in English as Polyder Virgil testifies that when the Parliament endeavoured to suppress the same John Duke of Lancaster stood up in defence thereof saying We will not be the refuse of all men for other Nations have Gods Laws in their own Language so ought we Therefore seeing such noble Precedents of godly Zeal for the general instruction of the People it was a most excellent work of the good Alderman Mr. Rowland Heylyn to print those Welch Bibles which were before rare and costly but now grown common in every mans hand and in his own Mothers Tongue As the Doctor was of honourable extraction by his Father's side so his Mothers Pedigree was not mean and contemptible but answered the Quality of her Husband being a Gentlewoman of an ancient Family whose Name was Eliz. Clampard Daughter of Francis Clampard of Wrotham in Kent and of Mary Dodge his Wife descended in a direct Line from Peter Dodge of Stopworth in Cheshire unto whom King Edward the First gave the Seigniory or Lordship of Paden hugh in the Barony of Coldingham in the Realm of Scotland as well for his special Services that he did in the Seige of Barwick and Dunbar as for his valour showed in several Battels Encontre son grand Enemy Rebelle Le Baillol Roy d' Escose Vassal d' Angle terre as the words are in the original Charter of Arms given to the said Peter Dodge by Guyen King of Arms at the Kings command dated April the 8th in the 34 〈◊〉 year of the said King Edward the First One of the Descendants from the said Peter Dodge was Uncle to Dr. Heylyn's Mother and gave the Mannor of Lechlade in the County of Glocester worth 1400 l. per An. to Robert Bathurst Esq Uncle to the Doctor and Father to the Loyal Knight and Baronet Sir Edward Bathurst lately deceased The Doctor in his green and tender years was put to School at Burford the Place of his Nativity and Education under the care of Mr. William North then School-master by whose good Instructions and his own wonderful Ingenuity he grew up to that proficiency in Learning that he was admired both by his Master and Scholars because his entrance into the Free-School was at the time of Child-hood when he was but six years old betwixt which time and the space of four years after he plyed his Book so well that he appeard more than an ordinary Latinist being Composer of several Exercises both in Prose and Verse particularly a Tragy-Comedy upon the Wars and Destruction of Troy with other exercises Historical which foreshewed what an excellency he would after attain unto in all kind of generous Learning Such early Blossoms are for the most part blasted or seldom bring forth fruit to ripeness and perfection that few Examples can be named of precocious Wits as have been long Liv'd or come near to the years of Old Age as the Doctor did excepting one famously known above others Hermogenes the Rhetorician of whom it was said 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 He was an old Man when he was a Child and a Child when he was an old Man In his Child-hood he was often brought before Marcus Ant. the Roman Emperor who delighted to hear his Talk for the natural Eloquence that flowed from him But though he lived long his Wit and admired Parts soon decayed and for his long Life saith Rhodiginus of him ut unus ex multis he was one as it were of a thousand Yet a Reverend Father of the Christian Church the glory of his time St. Augustine did far excel Hermogenes the Orator for he tells us in his Confessions that in secunda pueritia that is about the Age of twelve Legisse intellexisse Logicos Rhetoricos Aristotelis Libros he read and understood the Books of Aristotles Logick and Rhetorick by which Learning and Study of Divinity well managed together St. Augustin appeared the only Champion in the Field for the Orthodox Faith confounded the Manichees Donatists and other Hereticks and finally he lived to a great old Age a Blessing which ordinarily accompanied the Primitive Bishops and holy Fathers and still is continued as may be observed to the worthy Prelates of our Church But to find many of prodigious Wits and Memories from Child-hood and for such Persons to live unto extraordinary years and keep up their wonted Parts most Vigorously after they are turned Sixty which is the deep Autumne of Mans Life I believe Dr. Heylyn had the happy Fortune in Youth and Age above many others that his Vertues and excellent Abilities kept equal ballance together for all his Life primus ad extremum similis sibi that as he began happily so he went on like Isocrates his Master who being always the same could say Nihil habeo quod senectutem meam accusem He had nothing to accuse his old Age with After he was first diciplin'd under his Master North whom Death took from the School to another World he was committed to his Successor Mr. Davis a right worthy Man and painful Schoolmaster who train'd him up in all points of Learning befitting a young Scholar for the University where he was admitted at the fourteenth year of his Age Commoner in Hart-hall and put under the Tuition of Mr. Joseph Hill an ancient Batchelor of Divinity and formerly one of the Fellows of Corpus Christi Colledge but then a Tutor in Hart-hall After whom Mr.

In the same year with the celebrated Historian Jacob. August Thuanus on both whom the Stars poured out the like benign influences But the former viz. Peter Heylyn had not only the faculty of an Historian but the gift of a general Scholar in other Learning 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 as will appear to any one that reads his laborious Writings He was second Son of Henry Heylyn Gentleman descended from the ancient Family of the Heylyns of Peutre-Heylyn in Montgomeryshire then part of Powis-Land from the Princes whereof they were derived and unto whom they were Hereditary Cup-bearers for so the word Heylyn doth signifie in the Welch or Brittish Language an honourable Office in most Nations which we find in Divine as well as Prophane History whereby Nehemiah became so great a Favorite with Artaxerxes that he obtained a Grant for the rebuilding of the holy City Magni honoris erat Pincernae munus apud persas saith Alex. ab Alex. If Camden Clarencieux be of good Authority as with most he is unquestionable the Doctor deriveth his Pedigree from Grono-ap Heylyn who descended from Brockwel Skythrac one of the Princes of Powis-Land in whose Family was ever observed that one of them had a Gag-tooth and the same was a notable omen of good Fortune which Mark of the Tooth is still continued in the Doctors Family These and such like signatures of more wonderful form are indeed very rare yet not without Example So Seleucus and his Children after him were born with the Figure of an Anchor upon their Thigh as an infallible mark of their true geniture saith Justin Origenis hujus argumentum etiam posteris mansit si quidem filij nepotesque ejus anchoram in femore veluti notam generis naturalem habuere The aforesaid Grono-ap Heylyn from whom the Doctor is one of the Descendents was a man of so great Authority with the Princes of North-Wales that Llewelleu the last Prince of the Country made choice of him before any other to treat with the Commissioners of Edward the First King of England for the concluding of a final Peace between them which was accordingly done but afterwards Llewellen by the perswasion of David his Brother raised an Army against the King that were quickly routed himself slain in Battel and in him ended the Line of the Princes of North-Wales who had before withstood many puissant Monarchs whose attempts they always srustrated by retiring into the heart of their Country and as the Doctor saith leaving nothing for their Enemies to encounter with but Woods and Mountains after they had reigned Princes of North-Wales for the space of four hundred and five years A goodly time that scarcely the greatest Monarchies in the World have withstood their fatal period and dissolution as Chronologers usually observe Anni quingenti sunt fatalis Periodus Regnorum rerum publicarum saith Alsted But this little Monarchy of Wales may be compared to a Finger or Toe `or the least joynt indiscernable in the vast Body of the four great Empires and yet withal shows the mutability of them and all worldly Powers That Time will triumph in the Ruin of the strongest States and Kingdoms as is most excellently represented to us by Nebuchadnezzar's Image of Gold Silver Iron and Brass that mouldred away though durable Mettal because it stood upon feet of Clay So unstable are all mortal things And of no longer duration are the most high and mighty Powers under Heaven than the Brittish Monarchy which caused the Historian to complain that the more he meditated with himself of things done both in old and latter times tanto magis ludibria rerum mortalium cunctis in negotijs obversantur So much the more saith he the uncertainties and mock Vanities of Fortune in all worldly Affairs came to his remembrance Notwithstanding those great alterations in Wales no longer a Kingdom of it self but annexed to the Crown of England the Family of
where he had run through so hard a Task with the Regius Professor though he missed Windsor took this occasion to make himself merry as the Poet did musa jocosa mea est Ov. And so fell into this vein of Poetry When Windsor Prebend late disposed was One ask'd me sadly how it came to pass Potter was chose and Heylyn was forsaken I answer'd 't was by Charity mistaken But this Fancy was soon turned into a mournful Elegy by the death of his noble Friend the Attorny General Mr. Noy whose memory he could never forget for the honour of delivering to him the gracious message from his Majesty and for the intimacy he was pleased to bear to him as a bosom friend that he imparted to the Doctor all the affairs of State and transactions of things done in his time which made him so perfect an Historian in this particular and shewed him his papers manuscripts and laborious Collections that he had gathered out of Statutes and ancient Records for the proof of the Kings Prerogative particularly before his death at his house in Brainford where the Doctor kept Whitsontide with him in the year 1634. he shewed to him a great wooden Box that was full of old Precedents for levying a Naval aid upon the Subjects by the sole Authority of the King whensoever the preservation and safety of the Kingdom required it of them Mr. Hammond L' Strange acknowledges that Mr. Noy was a most indefatigable plodder and searcher of old Records The learned Antiquary Mr. Selden though no friend to the King nor Church confesses in his excellent book entituled Mare Clausum That the Kings of England â—…sed to levy mony upon the Subjects without the help of Parliament for the providing of Ships and other necessaries to maintain that Soveraignity which anciently belonged to the Crown Yet the honest Attorny General for the same good service to the King and Country is called by Hammond Le Strange The most pestilent vexation to the Subjects that this latter Age produced So true is the old Proverb some may better steal a Horse than others look on For it is usual with many not to judge according to the merits of the cause but by the respect or disrepect they bear to the Person as the Comedian once said Duo cum idem faciunt saepe possis dicere Hoc licet impune facere huic illi non licet Non quod dissimilis res sit sed quod qui facit When two does both alike the self same Act One suffers pain the other for the Fact Not the lest shame or punishment and why Respect of persons makes Crimes differently The death of Mr. Noy the more sadly afflicted the Doctor to lose so dear a Friend and an entire Lover of learned men during whose time no unhappy differences brake out betwixt the Dean of Westminster and the Prebends of that Church but all things were carried on smoothly by his Lordship because he knew well that Dr. Heylyn had a sure Advocate in Court both in behalf of himself and his Brethren if they stood in need of help that no sooner this worthy person departed the World but the Bishop so extremely tyrannized over the Prebendaries infringing their Priviledges violating their Customes and destroying their ancient Rights that for the common preservation of themselves and their Successors they were forced to draw up a Charge against his Lordship consisting of no less than thirty six Articles which were presented by way of complaint and petition of redress to his sacred Majesty who forthwith gave order for a Commission to be issued out unto the Arch-Bishops of Canterbury and York the Earl of Manchester Lord Privy Seal Earl of Portland the Lord Cottington the two Secretaries of State Sir John Cook and Sir Francis Windebank Authorizing them to hold a Visitation of the Church of Westminster to examine the particular charges made against John Lord Bishop of Lincoln and to redress such grievances and pressures as the Prebends of the said Church suffered by his misgovernment The Articles were ordered by the Council Table to be translated into Latin by Dr. Heylyn which accordingly he performed to avoid the common talk and scandal that might arise if exposed to the publick veiw of the vulgar on April 20. A. D. 1634. the Commission bore date which was not executed but lay dormant till December 1635 the Bishop expecting the business would never come to a hearing he raged more vehemently dispossessed the Prebends of their Seats refused to call a Chapter and to passe their Accounts conferred holy Orders in the said Church without their consent contrary to an ancient Priviledge which had been inviolably retained from the first foundation of the Church he permitted also Benefices in their gift to be lapsed unto himself that so he might have absolute power to dispose them to whom he pleased Quo teneam nodo With many other grievances which caused the Prebends to present a second Petition to his Majesty humbly beseeching him to take the ruinous and desperate estate of the said Church into his Princely consideration Upon which the former Commission was revived a day of hearing appointed and a Citation fixed upon the Church door of Westminster for the Bishops and Prebends to appear on Jan. 27. Upon the 25th instant The Prebends were warned by the Subdean to meet the Bishop in Jerusalem Chamber where his Lordship foreseeing the Storm that was like to fall upon his head carried himself very calmly towards them desiring to know what those things were that were amiss and he would presently redress them though his Lordship knew them very well without an Informer to which Dr. Heylyn replyed that seeing they had put this business into his Majesties hands it would ill become them to take the matters out oâ—… his into their own Therefore on Jan. 27th both Parties met together before the Lords in the Inner-star Chamber where by their Lordships Order the whole business was put into a methodical course each Mâ—…day following being appointed for a day of hearing till a Conclusion was made of the whole affair On February the 1st The Lords Commissioners with the Bishop and Prebends met in the Council-Chamber at White-hall where it was first ordered that the Plaintifs should be called by the name of Prebends supplicant Secondly they should be admitted upon Oath as Witnesses Thirdly they should have a sight of all Registers Records Books of account c. which the Bishop had kept from them Fourthly that the first business they should begin with should be about their Seat because it made the difference or breach more visible and offensive to the World than those matters which were private and domestick And lastly it was ordered that the Prebends should have an Advocate to plead their Cause defend their Rights and represent their Grievances Accordingly the Prebends unanimously made choice of Dr. Peter Heylyn for their Advocate The business now brought on so fairly
