liv'd to a fair age spent all in celebacy and had done much good he surrendred up his soul to God in Farnham Castle about three of the clock in the morn of the 29. of Octob. in sixteen hundred eighty and four whereupon his body was conveyed to Winchester and buried in a little vault in the body of the Cathedral there betwixt two pillars just opposite to those between which Bishop Will. Edendon was buried at the foot of the steps ascending to the Choire on the north side Soon after was an altar-tombe erected over his body and the inscription put thereon which he the said Dr. Morley had made for himself in the eightieth year of his age The contents of which being too large for this place shall be now omitted and especially for this reason because there is nothing in it but what is mention'd before in his life BENJAMIN WOODBRIDGE the Son of a Minister of Gods word by his Wife the Daughter of that noted Puritan called Rob. Parker author of the four books De descensu Christi ad inferos was born near Highworth in Wilts became either Batler or Commoner of Magd. Hall in Mich. term 1638 aged 16 years where he continued for some time under the tuition of Will. Eyre But before the time came that he could be adorned with a degree the times changed and the Civil War thereupon began So that he removing to New England he answer'd in the University of Cambridge there several positions which were about that time printed for the taking the degree of Master of Arts. After his return thence he retired to Oxon and as a member of Magd. Hall he was admitted to the same degree an 1648 being about that time a Minister in Salisbury Afterwards setling at Newbury in Berks. where he was much resorted to by those of the Presbyterian perswasion he was constituted one of the Assistants to the Commissioners of that County for the ejection of such whom that party and the Independents then 1654 called scandalous ignorant and insufficient Ministers and Schoolmasters After the restauration of his Majesty K. Ch. 2. he became one of his Chaplains and a Canonry of Windsore was offer'd to him but he bogling long with himself whether he should take that Dignity or not it was at length bestowed on a Son of the Ch. of England Soon after he being silenc'd by vertue of the act of conformity for he seemed then to hate a surplice and the Common-prayer he preached in private to the Brethren but being often disturbed and imprison'd once or twice he at length by the perswasion of some of his friends took holy Orders from the hands of Dr. Earl Bishop of Salisbury in the Church of S. Peter in the East in Oxon in Octob. 1665 with a resolution to be conformable to the Church of England But finding not preferment sutable to his desire to be confer'd upon him and a grand neglect and scorn of the Brethren he return'd to his former opinion which some then call'd his rags and preached several times in Conventicles to the great disturbance of the government the peace of Newbury and the neighbourhood When the Proclamation for toleration or indulgence of Religion was issued out 15 of March 1671 he became so audacious that he did not only preach publickly in the Market place there to the Brethren but disturbed or caused to be disturbed the good people in their going to Church Upon the breaking out of the Popish Plot an 1678 when then the Fanaticks took all advantages to promote their respective interests he did then appear more publick again to the disturbance of the peace preached every Sunday in a Conventicle at Highcleere in Hampshire and generally once in a week at Newbury before mention'd which is not far off that place At length upon the breaking out of the Presbyterian Plot in June 1683 he sculk'd and retired to Inglefield in Berks where as I have been informed he constantly if his health permitted him frequented the publick service of the Church of England and Sermons in the Church there to the time of his death He hath written Justification by faith or a confutation of that Antinomian errour that justification is before faith c. Lond. 1652. qu. 'T is the sum of a Sermon preached at Salisbury and is contained in 3. or 4. sh of paper It must be now known that one Tho. Warren Parson of Houghton in Hampshire preached at a Wednesdays Lecture in Salisbury in April 1651 and therein letting fall several passages which Will. Eyre a Minister in that City then present conceived to be very wide from the Orthodox faith did desire a conference with him after its conclusion Which being accordingly held with him they parted without any satisfaction to each other The next day Eyre preached in the same place and maintained what he had disputed upon the day before Whereupon our author Woodbridge being much concern'd at the matter for he was present at all these transactions took Warrens part preached the next Wednesday following on the same Subject that Warren had done before Afterwards he and Eyre at a conference about the matter in the publick meeting place after Sermon made it a publick quarrel and defied each other So that Woodbridge being much concern'd at it he published the aforesaid Sermon and entituled it Justification by faith c. in the body of which is contained the contents of the disputation with him by VV. Eyre before mention'd The famous Rich. Baxter saith that the sight of the said Sermon of Mr. VVoodbridge of so much worth in so narrow room did cause him to bless God that the Church had such a man and especially Newbury who had so excellently learned a pastor before meaning Dr. Twysse who had mistaken so much in this very point Also that the said Sermon is one of the best easiest and cheapest preservatives against the contagion of this part of Antinomianisme as any c. But by the way I must tell the Reader that as the said Mr. Baxter was enclining to Arminianisme so our author VVoodbridge was in some points who hath farther written The method of grace in the justification of sinners against Mr. Eyre his Vindiciae Justificationis gratuitae c. Lond. 1656. qu. The Apostolick Protestant doctrine of justification by faith asserted Printed with The method of Grace c. Church members set in joynt or a discovery of the unwarrantable and disorderly practice of private Christians in usurping the peculiar office and work of Christs own Pastors viz. publick preaching c. Lond. 1656. 57. qu. He also preached an excellent Sermon before K. Ch. 2. while he was his Chapl. on Acts 17.11 but whether printed I cannot yet tell sure I am that he published Moses and Aaron or the rights of the Church and State containing two disputations c. pen'd by James Noyes somtimes of Newbury in New England Lond. 1661. At length this Mr. VVoodbridge who was

Authors died on the 23 of June in sixteen hundred eighty and eight and was buried in the Church at Pisford before mention'd He had some time before wrot the life of his wife but because there were some trifling stories in it it was not printed WILLIAM FULMAN the son of a sufficient Carpenter was born in a town famous for the birth or at least habitation of Sir Phil. Sidney called Penshurst in Kent in the month of Nov. 1632 and being a youth of pregnant parts while the most learned Dr. Hammond was Parson of that place he took him into his protection carried him with him to Oxon in the time of the troubles procur'd him a Choristers place in Magd. Coll. and caused him to be carefully educated in Grammar learning in the School joyning to that house under the tuition of Mr. Will. White the vigilant Master thereof And being there well grounded in School learning that worthy Doctor put him upon standing for a Scholars place in Corp. Ch. Coll. where shewing himself an exact Proficient in classical learning was forthwith elected in 1647 and put under the tuition of an excellent Tutor but zealous Puritan named Zach. Bogan The next year he was ejected among other young men by the Parliamentarian Visitors to the great loss of his learning and tho his Patron Dr. Hammond was involved in the same fate yet he took him closer to him and made him his Amanuensis in which office he found him very serviceable and useful After he had arrived to the state of man he became by that Doctors endeavours Tutor to the son and heir of the antient and gentile family of Peto of Chesterton in Warwickshire where he found a comfortable harbour during the time of the Church of Englands disconsolate condition At length upon his Majesties return he was restored to his Scholarship was actually created Master of Arts and made Fellow of his House where continuing several years a severe Student in various sorts of learning was upon the death of Mr. Rich. Samwaies presented by the President and Fellows of his College to the Rectory of Meysey-Hampton near Fairford in Glocestershire where he finished his course He was a most zealous son of the Church of England and a grand enemy to Popery and Fanaticism He was a most excellent Theologist admirably well vers'd in ecclesiastical and profane history and chronology and had a great insight in English History and Antiquities but being totally averse from making himself known and that choice worth treasured up in his great learning did in a manner dye with him Had his indulgent Patron lived some years longer or he himself had taken those advantages as others did for their promotion in the Church upon account of their sufferings for the Royal cause he might without doubt have been a Dean but such was the high value that he set upon himself and his sufferings that he expected Preferment should court him and not he it Besides also he had not in him a complisant humour unless sooth'd up flattered or admired neither any application whether to advantage himself in learning experience or for his own commodity and therefore not known and so consequently as his merits deserved not so much admired as otherwise he would have been He wrot much and was a great Collector but published little as Academiae Oxoniensis Notitia Oxon. 1665. qu. Published again in the same vol. at London 1675 with very many additions and corrections taken from Historia Antiquitates Univ. Oxon published the year before the several sheets of which as soon as they were wrought off from the Press were by its Author sent to Mr. Fulman at Meysey-Hampton Appendix to the Life of Edm.

Corrections of and Observations on the first part of The History of the Reformation of the Church of England Which Correct and Observ are remitted into the Appendix to the second vol. of the said Hist of the Reform written by Gilb. Burnet D. D. Lond. 1681. fol. p. 411. c. But the Reader may be pleased to know that some of the said Observations are omitted and others curtail'd to the great dislike of their Author who had applied himself with very great care and diligence for several years on the like Subject of The History of Reformation and so consequently was abler to judge more critically of such a matter than other persons He also reviewed the whole copy of the second vol. of the said Hist of the Reform before it went to the Press and with great judgment did correct such errors that he found in it He also with great pains sought after and found out the Works of K. Ch. 1. of ever blessed memory and collected them into one large vol. with intentions to write the Life of that most religious Prince and to set it before them but he being unexpectedly taken with the Small Pox the Bookseller R. Royston employed Rich. Perincheif D. D. to draw up a history of it Which being so done not without the notes of Fulman it was printed before the said Collection with the name of Perincheif to it an 1662. fol. and so consequently the whole work was look'd upon and esteemed as due to him which otherwise was to have been due to Fulman Our author also did take a great deal of pains in writing the Life of the famous Joh. Hales of Eaton and had obtained many materials towards it but for want of application to persons for farther information of the man that work was left imperfect Also the Life of his founder Rich. Fox Bishop of Winchester with an account of the learned Men Writers Bishops c. of C. C. Coll but for want of application also and endeavours to obtain Record from several Offices in Lond. and Westm to which I did often advise him and tell him where matter migh be had that work was also left imperfect And what he did as to the publication of the works of Dr. Hammond I have already told you in the life and character of that person At length this our learned author being overtaken with a malignant fever in a very unseasonable time which he did not nor would take care to prevent the danger that might ensue died of it at Meysey-Hampton early in the morn of the 28 of June in sixteen hundred eighty and eight leaving then behind him a great heap of Collections neatly written with his own hand but nothing of them perfect All which being afterwards conveyed to C. C. Coll. to be according to his desire put into the Archives of the Library of that house what had it been for those that had the care to have permitted the author of this
