hold_v a_o discourse_n in_o examine_v his_o present_a sincerity_n and_o direct_v he_o in_o his_o last_o work_n than_o in_o inquire_v into_o the_o occasion_n and_o reason_n that_o bring_v he_o to_o a_o change_n of_o his_o religion_n he_o have_v in_o his_o sickness_n before_o his_o distemper_n arrive_v to_o a_o great_a height_n and_o while_o he_o be_v in_o his_o perfect_a sense_n make_v his_o will_n in_o which_o he_o leave_v five_o pound_n to_o the_o poor_a of_o this_o parish_n where_o he_o now_o live_v and_o desire_v that_o if_o it_o shall_v please_v god_n to_o take_v he_o out_o of_o this_o world_n i_o may_v preach_v he_o a_o funeral_n sermon_n and_o that_o it_o may_v be_v make_v public_a his_o friend_n let_v i_o know_v this_o and_o at_o he_o and_o their_o request_n i_o visit_v he_o i_o find_v he_o very_o much_o decay_v in_o his_o strength_n but_o perfect_o sensible_a as_o he_o have_v still_o be_v in_o the_o interval_n of_o his_o fit_n though_o the_o height_n of_o his_o fever_n put_v he_o into_o rave_n as_o soon_o as_o i_o see_v he_o he_o request_v of_o i_o what_o his_o friend_n have_v tell_v i_o beforehand_o and_o i_o presume_v his_o design_n in_o it_o be_v that_o he_o may_v be_v vindicate_v from_o the_o suspicion_n of_o some_o heterodox_n opinion_n which_o his_o censurer_n impute_v to_o he_o as_o well_o as_o that_o his_o death_n may_v be_v the_o occasion_n of_o a_o useful_a discourse_n to_o the_o live_n i_o therefore_o tell_v he_o that_o in_o case_n i_o comply_v with_o his_o desire_n i_o think_v it_o will_v be_v expect_v i_o shall_v say_v something_o of_o a_o person_n who_o write_n and_o character_n have_v render_v he_o so_o much_o know_v to_o the_o world_n and_o have_v give_v occasion_n to_o some_o people_n to_o speak_v doubtful_o of_o his_o principle_n in_o religion_n and_o that_o for_o this_o reason_n among_o other_o it_o will_v be_v very_o proper_a for_o i_o to_o have_v some_o satisfaction_n from_o he_o as_o to_o his_o faith_n upon_o which_o i_o put_v several_a question_n to_o he_o as_o whether_o he_o believe_v the_o gospel_n whether_o he_o give_v credit_n to_o the_o miracle_n that_o be_v there_o record_v and_o look_v upon_o they_o as_o attestation_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n whether_o he_o believe_v that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o saviour_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o he_o come_v to_o be_v our_o propitiation_n and_o to_o satisfy_v divine_a justice_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o mankind_n to_o which_o and_o suchlike_a question_n he_o answer_v affirmative_o with_o great_a earnestness_n and_o when_o i_o discourse_v he_o on_o the_o subject_n of_o that_o book_n of_o he_o which_o occasion_v suspicion_n of_o his_o principle_n he_o declare_v that_o he_o have_v no_o intention_n to_o prejudice_n religion_n thereby_o and_o remit_v i_o to_o his_o grace_n the_o archbishop_n of_o canterbury_n for_o far_a satisfaction_n to_o who_o he_o say_v he_o have_v explain_v himself_o in_o this_o matter_n and_o as_o a_o attestation_n of_o his_o sincerity_n have_v receive_v the_o sacrament_n upon_o it_o at_o the_o parish_n church_n of_o st._n martin_n in_o the_o field_n which_o i_o have_v since_o find_v to_o be_v true_a i_o than_o begin_v to_o examine_v he_o as_o to_o the_o state_n of_o his_o soul_n what_o sense_n he_o have_v of_o his_o sin_n and_o what_o remorse_n for_o have_v at_o any_o time_n offend_v god_n and_o whether_o he_o be_v persuade_v of_o the_o necessity_n of_o repentance_n and_o amendment_n of_o life_n in_o order_n to_o gain_v the_o salvation_n purchase_v by_o jesus_n christ_n to_o all_o which_o he_o give_v i_o very_o satisfactory_a answer_n and_o express_v great_a sorrow_n for_o the_o sin_n and_o error_n of_o his_o life_n past_a and_o then_o join_v with_o we_o very_o devouty_a in_o the_o prayer_n of_o the_o church_n in_o the_o office_n for_o the_o visitation_n of_o the_o sick_n in_o the_o afternoon_n of_o the_o same_o day_n i_o go_v with_o a_o desire_n to_o have_v have_v some_o far_a discourse_n with_o he_o but_o the_o violence_n of_o his_o fit_a be_v upon_o he_o he_o be_v not_o in_o a_o condition_n to_o be_v speak_v with_o the_o next_o morning_n i_o visit_v he_o again_o and_o find_v he_o in_o one_o of_o his_o interval_n still_o sensible_a but_o very_o much_o weaken_v i_o take_v this_o occasion_n to_o talk_v with_o he_o more_o particular_o concern_v his_o principle_n and_o upon_o mention_v the_o merit_n of_o our_o saviour_n ask_v he_o whether_o he_o depend_v entire_o on_o the_o merit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o his_o intercession_n for_o pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o reconcilement_n to_o god_n and_o he_o make_v answer_v that_o he_o rely_v only_o on_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o saviour_n he_o be_v then_o put_v in_o mind_n of_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n and_o he_o say_v he_o desire_v it_o with_o all_o his_o soul_n i_o ask_v he_o whether_o in_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n he_o have_v in_o his_o view_n the_o profess_v himself_o a_o disciple_n of_o christ_n and_o a_o member_n of_o his_o body_n the_o church_n and_o if_o in_o receive_v it_o from_o my_o hand_n he_o desire_v to_o profess_v himself_o a_o member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n which_o question_n be_v a_o second_o time_n distinct_o put_v to_o he_o by_o a_o friend_n of_o his_o then_o present_a he_o answer_v with_o very_o great_a seriousness_n that_o he_o do_v then_o i_o put_v he_o in_o mind_n of_o his_o neglect_n of_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n which_o he_o have_v not_o do_v since_o about_o two_o year_n ago_o when_o he_o communicate_v at_o st._n martin_n and_o he_o express_v a_o sorrow_n for_o it_o by_o all_o this_o i_o think_v he_o sufficient_o purge_v himself_o from_o the_o imputation_n of_o deism_n socinianism_n or_o popery_n i_o look_v on_o he_o as_o a_o true_a penitent_a member_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o i_o give_v he_o the_o sacrament_n he_o receive_v it_o with_o sign_n of_o very_o great_a devotion_n with_o expression_n of_o hearty_a repentance_n for_o all_o the_o sin_n and_o folly_n of_o his_o life_n and_o earnest_a petition_n for_o pardon_n and_o so_o i_o leave_v he_o as_o far_o as_o we_o can_v judge_v in_o a_o christian_a disposition_n for_o death_n which_o i_o look_v upon_o as_o very_o near_o these_o be_v thing_n which_o i_o think_v myself_o oblige_v to_o give_v a_o particular_a account_n of_o partly_o to_o answer_v what_o i_o conceive_v be_v the_o design_n of_o the_o decease_a and_o partly_o upon_o occasion_n of_o a_o accident_n that_o happen_v some_o hour_n after_o i_o leave_v he_o which_o perhaps_o it_o will_v be_v think_v not_o fair_a to_o conceal_v a_o certain_a person_n who_o it_o seem_v be_v a_o romish_a priest_n come_v to_o the_o doctor_n be_v lodging_n and_o desire_v very_o earnest_o to_o see_v he_o declare_v that_o he_o be_v his_o countryman_n his_o friend_n and_o his_o relation_n those_o about_o he_o look_v upon_o he_o as_o very_o near_o his_o departure_n be_v unwilling_a he_o shall_v be_v disturb_v but_o upon_o great_a importunity_n do_v at_o last_o grant_v the_o strange_a admittance_n who_o come_v to_o the_o bed_n side_n call_v the_o doctor_n by_o his_o name_n and_o salute_v he_o in_o his_o native_a language_n three_o time_n before_o he_o regard_v but_o at_o the_o three_o time_n he_o cry_v out_o for_o god_n sake_n assist_v i_o upon_o which_o the_o company_n be_v prevail_v with_o to_o leave_v the_o room_n but_o the_o doctor_n be_v most_o intimate_a friend_n return_v to_o the_o door_n and_o hear_v the_o doctor_n repeat_v over_o his_o confiteor_fw-la in_o latin_a in_o a_o very_a huddle_v manner_n upon_o which_o the_o priest_n give_v he_o absolution_n and_o then_o ask_v he_o whether_o he_o will_v have_v extreme_a unction_n and_o the_o doctor_n say_v yes_o after_o which_o it_o be_v suspect_v it_o be_v give_v he_o now_o here_o can_v i_o imagine_v the_o doctor_n be_v in_o his_o sense_n and_o that_o he_o be_v real_o in_o his_o heart_n of_o the_o roman_a communion_n while_o he_o only_o act_v this_o part_n in_o the_o last_o scene_n of_o his_o life_n i_o shall_v look_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o very_a great_a stain_n on_o his_o memory_n and_o i_o be_o persuade_v it_o will_v give_v everybody_o a_o shock_a idea_n of_o that_o religion_n which_o will_v allow_v a_o person_n so_o to_o prevaricate_v both_o with_o god_n and_o man._n but_o i_o confess_v i_o believe_v his_o judgement_n be_v now_o quite_o decay_v and_o that_o he_o do_v not_o know_v what_o he_o do_v for_o he_o be_v think_v die_v by_o those_o about_o he_o though_o he_o recover_v out_o of_o that_o agony_n and_o live_v till_o next_o day_n his_o friend_n assure_v i_o that_o in_o his_o sickness_n he_o turn_v away_o another_o romish_a priest_n who_o will_v have_v
