have_v be_v in_o his_o bed_n then_o in_o his_o pulpit_n his_o weakness_n be_v so_o very_o great_a although_o his_o bodily_a disorder_n be_v sometime_o violent_a yet_o then_o be_v he_o extreme_o

moses_n deliver_v that_o divine_a song_n just_a as_o he_o be_v about_o to_o take_v his_o final_a farewell_n of_o this_o world_n he_o thence_o observe_v this_o precious_a truth_n doctrine_n 1._o that_o gracious_a soul_n the_o near_a heaven_n they_o be_v the_o more_o heavenly_a will_v they_o be_v on_o this_o truth_n he_o have_v preach_v several_a sermon_n but_o then_o far_a remark_v that_o this_o

doctrine_n and_o conclude_v it_o with_o this_o passage_n oecolampadius_n when_o he_o fall_v sick_a at_o basil_n send_v not_o for_o the_o physician_n but_o the_o pastor_n of_o the_o church_n and_o notwithstanding_o his_o pain_n and_o weakness_n with_o much_o life_n and_o vigour_n beseech_v they_o to_o continue_v constant_a and_o firm_a in_o the_o purity_n of_o that_o doctrine_n they_o have_v profess_v and_o preach_v and_o for_o other_o thing_n he_o will_v they_o to_o be_v less_o careful_a assure_v they_o that_o the_o alsufficient_a god_n will_v provide_v for_o they_o and_o not_o be_v want_v when_o thus_o he_o have_v end_v his_o discourse_n he_o conclude_v all_o with_o these_o sad_a word_n which_o he_o speak_v feel_o though_o with_o a_o sweet_a voice_n i_o believe_v this_o be_v the_o last_o sermon_n that_o ever_o i_o shall_v preach_v to_o you_o or_o that_o ever_o you_o will_v hear_v from_o i_o or_o word_n to_o that_o purpose_n which_o prove_v a_o truth_n though_o a_o

account_n of_o my_o father_n i_o look_v upon_o myself_o oblige_v to_o reply_v to_o a_o invidious_a objection_n that_o former_o many_o have_v make_v a_o noise_n with_o to_o lessen_v his_o esteem_n and_o procure_v his_o discredit_v viz._n obj._n mr._n hallet_n say_v they_o be_v a_o man_n of_o very_o mean_a ability_n that_o have_v little_a of_o a_o scholar_n in_o he_o for_o he_o have_v never_o the_o benefit_n of_o a_o academical_a tuition_n he_o be_v never_o graduate_v in_o any_o university_n never_o have_v a_o regular_a methodical_a education_n and_o therefore_o wonder_v people_n be_v so_o fond_a of_o one_o of_o so_o little_a learning_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v 1._o i_o hearty_o rejoice_v that_o i_o can_v never_o hear_v any_o thing_n object_v against_o his_o piety_n 2._o i_o do_v most_o sincere_o wish_v that_o the_o person_n that_o make_v a_o clamour_n with_o this_o cavil_v be_v possessor_n of_o a_o great_a deal_n more_o learning_n than_o my_o father_n be_v ever_o master_n of_o 3._o i_o may_v further_o add_v that_o i_o have_v know_v very_o many_o person_n that_o have_v have_v a_o education_n in_o our_o academy_n that_o have_v no_o great_a reason_n to_o boast_v of_o their_o acquire_v ability_n or_o to_o value_v themselves_o upon_o the_o account_n of_o their_o clerkship_n degree_n and_o college_n commons_o i_o be_o convince_v do_v not_o inspire_v man_n with_o knowledge_n and_o learning_n and_o i_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v that_o man_n may_v be_v wise_a and_o know_v although_o they_o be_v never_o nurse_v up_o in_o those_o seminary_n for_o i_o have_v be_v acquaint_v with_o some_o that_o have_v be_v well_o skilled_a in_o art_n and_o science_n in_o the_o learned_a tongue_n and_o language_n and_o yet_o have_v never_o the_o advantage_n of_o a_o accademial_a instruction_n such_o have_v profit_v more_o by_o their_o diligence_n and_o their_o own_o private_a read_n than_o many_o other_o by_o their_o college_n lecture_n and_o their_o little_a debate_n in_o the_o school_n i_o say_v this_o not_o that_o i_o will_v be_v think_v to_o give_v a_o disparage_a character_n of_o a_o academial_a tuition_n but_o only_o to_o prove_v that_o learning_n and_o skill_n in_o science_n be_v not_o always_o confine_v to_o person_n thus_o educate_v and_o i_o be_o sure_a my_o father_n be_v a_o plain_a instance_n of_o it_o but_o 4._o i_o shall_v offer_v a_o far_a reply_n to_o this_o objection_n in_o the_o word_n of_o the_o learned_a and_o pious_a mr._n baxter_n which_o you_o may_v find_v in_o the_o preface_n to_o his_o teacher_n of_o household_n speak_v there_o of_o the_o learning_n that_o be_v to_o be_v meet_v with_o in_o the_o university_n he_o thus_o express_v himself_o if_o any_o say_v there_o be_v no_o great_a or_o solid_a learning_n to_o be_v get_v elsewhere_o let_v they_o think_v where_o great_a augustine_n and_o most_o of_o the_o great_a light_n of_o the_o church_n for_o four_o hundred_o year_n attain_v their_o knowledge_n and_o whether_o the_o scaliger_n salmasius_n grotius_n selden_n and_o such_o other_o get_v not_o more_o by_o secret_a laborious_a read_n than_o by_o academical_a tutor_n
