maintaing these Doctrines as they are proposed in the Scriptures without entring too much into Explanations or Controversies would be the most effectual way to preserve the Reverence that was due to them and to fix them in mens belief But when he was desired by some and provoked by others and saw just Occasions moving him to it he asserted those great Mysteries with that Strength and Clearness that was his peculiar Talent He thought the less mens Consciences were entangled and the less the Communion of the Church was clogg'd with disputable Opinions or Practices the world would be the Happier Consciences the freer and the Church the Quieter He made the Scriptures the measure of his Faith and the chief Subject of all his Meditations He indeed judged that the great design of Christianity was the reforming Mens Natures and governing their Actions the restraining their Appetites and Passions the softning their Tempers and sweetning their Humours the composing their Affections and the raising their minds above the Interests and Follies of this present World to the hope and pursuit of endless Blessedness And he considered the whole Christian Doctrine as a System of Principles all tending to this He looked on Mens contending about lesser matters or about Subtleties relating to those that are greater as one of the chief practices of the Powers of Darkness to defeat the true ends for which the Son of God came into the World and that they did lead Men into much dry and angry work who while they were hot in the making Parties and setling Opinions became so much the slacker in those great Duties which were chiefly designed by the Christian Doctrine I have now viewed him in this Light in which S. Paul does here view himself and have considered how much of that Character belonged to him I have reason to believe that he went over these things often in his own Thoughts with the same prospect that S. Paul had For tho' he seemed not to apprehend that Death was so near him as it proved to be yet he thought it was not far from him He spoke often of it as that which he was longing for and which he would welcome with Joy Now the black part of this Discourse comes on me I cannot avoid it tho' I know not how to enter upon it or how to go thro with it He kept nothing in reserve for his last hours He was still ready waiting for them so he could not be surprized tho every Body else was The first Attacks came upon him while he was in that Imployment in which he delighted most at Church and in the Worship of God he bore them with his usual neglect of himself And tho' his Countenance shewed he was ill he would neither Interrupt nor break off from those Sacred Exercises nor make hast to look after his Health Ah the unhappy Neglect of a Life that deserved so well to be carefully preserved The sit came on slowly but seemed to be fatal All Symptoms were melancholly It soon turned to a Dead Palsie The Oppression was so great that it became very uneasie for him to speak but it appeared that his understanding was still clear tho others could not have the advantage of it he only said that he had no burden on his Conscience All Remedies proved ineffectual He expressed no concern to Live nor fear to Die but patiently bore his burden till it sunk him on the fifth Day and in the sixty fifth Year of his Age. Thus he Lived and thus he Died. Now he has received that Crown of Righteousness which he lookt for from the hands of that Righteous Iudge to whom he often made his Appeals and who knew the sincerity of his Heart and the Integrity of his Life There he is now at rest got beyond the strife of Tongues and the Pride of Man into those Regions of Peace and Blessedness May we all who stay behind learn so much from what we saw in him and heard from him as to follow him thither and so to possess our Minds and to govern our Lives while we are in this our Pilgrimage that when the Terrours of Death may overtake us the prospect of a Blessed Immortality beyond it may so support us that we may not only overcome all those darkning and oppressive Fears but may finish our Course with Joy and pass into that State of Life and Glory where with Angels and Saints we shall always behold the Face of our Heavenly Father and we shall be ever with the Lord Let us both exhort and comfort one another with these words Come Lord Jesus even so come quickly FINIS BOOKS Printed for RICHARD CHISWELL ANGLIA SACRA sive Collectio Historiarum Antiquitus Scriptarum de Archiepiscopis Episcopis Angliae a Prima Fidei Christianae susceptione ad Annum 1540. in duobus Voluminibus per Henricum Whartonum Fol. 1691.
