July 27. he was stript of the greatest part of his honours and all his fortunes But his Person was set at liberty Sept. 3. and not long after we meet with him in Germany either a forced or a voluntary exile 9. From thence he passed into Italy and by the way left those adversary Epistles of Winchester and himself with his Friend Coelius who put them in print without the Authours privity At his return to Germany he was kindly entertained at Strasburg where he took up his old trade and set up shop again being chosen Professor of the Greek tongue in that place This was a treasure which maintained him in his exile this he had not confiscate to the Queen this escaped the diligence of the Searchers when he conveyed it out of the Kingdom 10. Here he lived about two years in good repute till I know not what unlucky stars put him upon a journey into the Low Countries Some have said it was to marry a wife but what need of that when he was already matched to a young Lady who lived to see many happier days after his decease and dyed well nigh threescore years after him An. 1616. Sleidan tells us he went into low Germany ut uxorem educeret to fetch his wife thence who belike was lately come over out of England and meant to settle with him at Strasburg But in his return from Bruxelles to Antwerp May 15. 1556 both Sir John Cheek and Sir Peter Carew were way-laid by the Provost Marshall for K. Philip beaten from their horses tyed hand and foot to the bottom of a Cart and so conveyed hood-winkt to the next Haven where they were shipt under hatches and their first landing place was the Tower of London where they were committed to close prison Sir Peter Carew out-lived his Troubles and under-went many honourable services under Queen Elizabeth and dyed An. 1575. 11. Sir John Cheek's lot was somewhat harder he was put to this miserable choise either to forgo his life or what is far more precious his liberty of Conscience No mean neither his great Learning nor his known integrity nor the intercession of his friends and among them Abbot Fekenham a man which could do somewhat with Queen Mary could compound for his pardon at any lower rate then the recantation of his Religion Upon this he was soon restored to his liberty but never to his content The sense and sorrow for himself and the dayly sight of that cruel but chery which was exercised upon others for the constant profession of the truth made such deep impressions in his broken soul as brought him to a speedy but comfortable end of a miserable life 12. He dyed at London in the house of Peter Osbern Esq Sept. 1557. He left one Son which bare his name a comely young man and a stout slain in his Princes service in Ireland 1580. but the issue of his brain was more numerous De pronuntiatione Graecae linguae Panegyricus Edvardi VI.

Dr. JOHN WHITGIFT Arch-bishop of Canterbury Out of his life written by Sir George Paul Controller of his Graces houshold 1. HE came of the antient family of Whitgift of Whitgift in York-shire the eldest son of a Merchant Henry Whitgift of great Grimsly in Lincolnshire and was there born An. 1530. He was taught among other young Gentlemen by his Unkle Robert Whitgift Abbot of Wellow In which time as he was pleased often to remember he heard the Abbot say That they and their Religion could not long continue because said he I have read the whole Scripture over and over and could never find therein that our Religion was founded by God 2. His Uncle finding an extraordinary forwardlynesse in him sent him afterwards to London where he became a Scholar in S. Anthonies Schoole and boarded at his Aunts House in Pauls Church-yard From thence he repaired to Grimsly to his Parents being thrust out of dores by his Aunt because he would not goe with her to Mass imputing all her domestick misfortunes to her harbouring such an Heretick in her House and for a Farewell told him That she thought at the first she had received a Saint into her House but now she perceived he was a Divel 3. His Parents finding his proficiency by the direction of his Uncle sent him to Cambridge Dr. Ridley made him Scholar of Pembroke Hall thence Dr. Pearn chose him Fellow of Peter house Being there fallen grievously sick the Doctor who lov'd him for his good parts placed him with a good woman near the Colledge visiting him oft and charging her to spare no cost for his recovery If he lives said he he will be able to pay you himself if he dye I will satisfy you 4. After his recovery Dr. Pearn finding he purposed to travel Beyond Sea to avoid the Visitors sent by Queen Mary conferred with him and seeing him resolute in his Religion upon many good and sound reasons as the Doctor often acknowledged willed him to be silent and quiet and he would so order the matter that he might keep his Religion and not leave the University which the good old man justly performed 5. After he was entred into the Ministry which was upon the year 1560 being to preach his first publick Sermon in S. Maries he chose for his Text that excellent saying of S. Paul I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ c. Wherein his singular method choice of matter and judicious handling thereof were such that his whole Auditory especially the Chief of the University grew into great Admiration of those great parts in so young years 6. From being Fellow of Peter House he succeeded Doctor Hutton in the Mastership of Pembroke Hall and being Chaplain to Doctor Cox Bishop of Ely he had a Prebend there He was also chosen the Lady Margarets Professor of Divinity and afterwards the Queens The Queen having heard him preach said he had a White gift indeed made him Master of Trinity Colledge and caused him immediately to be sworn her Chaplain An. 1567. 7. He govern'd the Colledge for five years space with great quietnesse untill Mr. Tho. Cartwright a Fellow of that Colledge his last return from beyond the Seas Whos 's first discontentment grew from the Queens neglect of him at a Disputation before her Majesty in the University 8. The Master being from home Mr. Cartwright with some of his adherents made three Sermons upon one Sunday and so vehemently inveighed against the Surplice and other Ceremonies that they of the Colledge at Evening Prayer laid aside

said They should be welcome It was added They were of Corpus Christi They shall be the more wellcome to me said the Bishop To omit the rest of their entertainment when the Scholars took their leave the Bishop gave them every one a viaticum some money to bear their charges and especially to Hooker upon whom also he pleasantly said he would bestow his own Nag and brought forth and gave him an old staff which had been his companion in his Travel Te nunc habet iste secundum Had I that staff I should esteem it no lesse than a very Sacred Relique * VI. Dr. LANCELOT ANDREWES Bishop of Winchester Out of his Funeral Sermon by John Bishop of Ely 1. HE was born in the City of London of honest and godly Parents who besides his breeding in learning left him a sufficient Patrimony and inheritance which is descended to his heir at Rawreth in Essex 2. His life was well composed and ordered ever from his child-hood In his tenderest years he shewed such readinesse and sharpnesse of wit and capacity that his two first Masters Mr. Ward and Mr. Mulcaster contended for him who should have the honour of his breeding that after became the honour of their Schools and all Learning 3. Mr. Ward first obtained of his Parents that he should not be an Apprentice and at length Mr. Mulcaster got him to Merchant Taylors School He accounted all time lost that he spent not in his Studies He out-stript all his equals His early rising at four in the morning procured him the displeasure of the Vshers because he called them up so soon 4. Their pains and care he so carefully remembred all his life long that he studied alwaies how to do good to them and theirs In which gratefulnesse he promoted Dr. Ward to the Parsonage of Waltham and ever loved and honoured his Master Mulcaster during his life and was a continual helper to him and his Son And as if he had made Mr. Mulcaster his Tutor or Supervisor he placed his picture over the door of his study whereas in all the rest of the house you could scantly see a picture 5. From Mr. Mulcaster he went to Cambridge to Pembroke Hall and was there admitted one of Dr. Wats Scholars a notable Grammarian well entred in the Latin Greek and Hebrew tongues and likewise in Geometry and some of the Mathematicks and after a Fellow there in which he passed over all Degrees and places in such sort that he ever seemed worthy of higher and would in the end attain the highest for his abilities and vertues were mature and ripe for greater employments 6. He often lamented that he never could find a fit opportunity to shew his thankfulnesse to Dr. Wats his Patron nor to any of his Posterity Yet he did not utterly forget him in his will having ordered that the two Fellowships to be founded by him in Pembroke-Hall should alwaies be chosen and filled out of the Scholars of Dr. Wats Foundation if they were found fit of which himself had been one 7. Being in holy Orders he attended the noble and zealous Henry Earl of Huntington President of York and was employed by him in often preaching and conference with Recusants both of the Clergy and Laity In which God so blest his endeavours that he converted many 8. After this Mr. Secretary Walsingham takes notice of him and obtained him of the Earl intending his preferment in which he would never permit him to take any Country-benefice lest he and his great learning should be buried in a Country-Church His intent was to make him Reader of Controversies in Cambridge and for his maintenance he assigned to him as I am informed the lease of the Parsonage of Alton in Hampshire which after his death he returned to his Lady which she never knew or thought of 9. After this he obtained the Vicaridge of S. Giles without Creeple-gate London and a Prebend Residentiaries place in Pauls and was chosen Master of Pembroke-Hall and afterward was advanced to the Deanry of Westminster and all this without any ambition or suite of his own being promoted for his great worth 10. His knowledge in the learned and modern Tongues to the number of fifteen in all as I am informed was admirable His Memory great His Judgment profound His pains and Industry was infinite In the works he wrote he used no man to read for him as Bellarmine and others employed whole Colledges to read and study for them he only used an Amanuensis to transcribe that which himself had first written with his own hand 11. As he was himself most learned so he was a singular lover and encourager of Learned men which appeareth in his liberality and bounty to Mr. Casaubon Mr. Cluverius Mr. Vossius Mr. Grotius Mr. Erpenius whom he attempted with the offer of a very large stipend out of his own purse to draw into England to have read and taught the Oriental Tongues here 12. When the Bishopricks of Eli and Salisbury were void and some things were to be pared from them some overture being made to him to take them he refused them utterly He seemed to answer Nolo episcopari quia nolo alienare I will not be made a Bishop because I will not alienate Bishops Lands 13. After this by some perswasion he accepted of Chichester yet with some sear of the burthen and after that of Eli and last of this of Winchester Whence God hath translated him to Heaven In which he freed himself and his Successor of a Pension of 400 per an Which many of his Predecessors had paid He was Almoner Dean of the Chappel and a privy Counsellor to King James and King Charles In which he spake and meddled little in Civil and temporal Affairs being out of his profession and element but in causes of the Church he spake fully and home 14. Wheresoever he lived all places were better'd by his providence and goodnesse S. Giles was reduced by him to a Rate toward the better maintenance of the place and the house repaired He found nothing in the Treasury in Pembroke Hall he left it in ready mony a thousand pound being Prebend Residentiary in Pauls he built the house in Creed-Lane belonging to his Prebend and recovered it to the Church he repaired the Dean's lodging When he came to Chichester he repaired the Palace there at Eli he spent on the Bishops houses two thousand pound Besides he refused to make some Leases in his last years which might have been very beneficial to him for the good of his Successor His reason was Many are too ready to spoil Bishopricks and few enough to uphold them 15. He was alwaies a diligent and painfull Preacher most of his Solemn Sermons he was most carefull of and exact I dare say few of them but they passed his hand and were thrice revised before they were preached and he ever misliked often and loose preaching without study of Antiquity and he would be bold with
