mind_n in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o man_n and_o the_o management_n of_o humane_a affair_n his_o education_n furnish_v he_o with_o a_o fair_a opportunity_n of_o see_v the_o world_n as_o well_o abroad_o as_o at_o home_n and_o of_o pry_v into_o the_o intrigue_n of_o commerce_n and_o into_o the_o manner_n and_o interest_n of_o man_n whence_o he_o draw_v so_o many_o wise_a and_o useful_a observation_n as_o render_v he_o a_o prince_n among_o merchant_n and_o a_o oracle_n of_o trade_n insomuch_o that_o he_o be_v think_v worthy_a to_o be_v choose_v deputy-governour_n of_o that_o wise_a and_o great_a company_n of_o the_o turkey_n merchant_n and_o be_v perhaps_o as_o much_o consult_v by_o his_o superior_n about_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o english_a trade_n and_o the_o mystery_n of_o commerce_n as_o any_o one_o merchant_n of_o this_o city_n or_o nation_n thus_o for_o his_o intellectual_n as_o for_o his_o moral_n i_o believe_v that_o all_o that_o know_v he_o will_v allow_v he_o this_o character_n that_o he_o be_v a_o gentleman_n of_o great_a integrity_n and_o fidelity_n to_o his_o trust_n of_o exact_a justice_n and_o righteousness_n in_o his_o commerce_n and_o deal_n that_o he_o be_v a_o studious_a and_o successful_a peacemaker_n and_o great_a part_n of_o his_o time_n before_o he_o be_v call_v up_o by_o his_o prince_n into_o a_o more_o busy_a and_o active_a station_n be_v spend_v in_o arbitrate_v difference_n between_o man_n and_o man_n in_o which_o he_o be_v so_o expert_a so_o impartial_a and_o prosperous_a that_o i_o be_o apt_a to_o think_v he_o cement_v as_o many_o break_a friendship_n reconcile_v as_o many_o quarrel_n and_o adjust_v as_o many_o difference_n which_o otherwise_o may_v have_v flame_v out_o into_o destructive_a breach_n as_o most_o of_o those_o bless_a peacemaker_n that_o be_v go_v before_o he_o consider_v he_o in_o his_o respective_a relation_n and_o there_o all_o that_o know_v he_o i_o be_o sure_a will_v allow_v he_o to_o have_v be_v a_o faithful_a a_o loyal_a and_o useful_a subject_n to_o his_o prince_n a_o kind_n and_o oblige_a husband_n to_o his_o lady_n a_o tender_a and_o a_o wise_a father_n to_o his_o child_n a_o prudent_a careful_a and_o benevolent_a master_n to_o his_o servant_n and_o in_o a_o word_n a_o wise_a counsellor_n a_o faithful_a friend_n and_o a_o just_a and_o diligent_a correspondent_n as_o for_o his_o religion_n he_o be_v a_o hearty_a protestant_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n which_o upon_o mature_a judgement_n and_o upon_o thorough_a information_n he_o prefer_v for_o the_o loyalty_n of_o its_o principle_n the_o simplicity_n of_o its_o doctrine_n and_o the_o primitive_a purity_n of_o its_o worship_n and_o discipline_n before_o all_o the_o church_n in_o the_o world_n and_o what_o his_o judgement_n be_v of_o our_o church_n he_o visible_o express_v by_o his_o constant_a attendance_n upon_o the_o public_a office_n of_o our_o religion_n upon_o the_o lord_n day_n from_o which_o he_o never_o absent_v but_o when_o he_o be_v either_o detain_v by_o sickness_n or_o some_o very_a urgent_a and_o unavoidable_a occasion_n and_o in_o which_o he_o always_o demean_v he_o with_o all_o the_o profound_a reverence_n and_o devotion_n that_o outward_o express_v a_o mind_n inspire_v with_o a_o pious_a sense_n of_o its_o duty_n and_o of_o the_o awful_a presence_n of_o the_o great_a majesty_n of_o heaven_n thus_o he_o live_v and_o as_o for_o his_o death_n though_o it_o be_v accompany_v with_o all_o the_o circumstance_n that_o can_v render_v a_o man_n fond_a of_o life_n and_o make_v he_o play_v loath_a to_o depart_v though_o he_o have_v a_o plentiful_a estate_n a_o love_a and_o belove_a wife_n dutiful_a and_o hopeful_a child_n and_o these_o all_o of_o they_o happy_o dispose_v off_o and_o settle_v in_o the_o world_n to_o his_o own_o heart_n content_a to_o leave_v all_o which_o at_o once_o seem_v a_o very_a hard_a chapter_n to_o a_o mind_n not_o well_o resolve_v yet_o all_o these_o together_o have_v no_o such_o effect_n upon_o he_o indeed_o not_o long_o before_o his_o death_n though_o then_o in_o perfect_a health_n he_o seem_v to_o have_v a_o abode_a of_o his_o approach_a fate_n for_o have_v to_o his_o heart_n desire_v dispose_v of_o his_o only_a son_n in_o marriage_n who_o be_v the_o last_o of_o his_o child_n undisposed_a he_o have_v be_v often_o hear_v to_o say_v that_o now_o he_o thank_v god_n his_o business_n in_o this_o world_n be_v finish_v and_o that_o it_o be_v high_a time_n for_o he_o to_o think_v of_o his_o departure_n into_o the_o other_o and_o when_o soon_o after_o he_o be_v seize_v with_o his_o last_o sickness_n he_o bear_v it_o with_o a_o invincible_a courage_n and_o constancy_n and_o though_o the_o last_o part_n of_o it_o be_v extreme_o painful_a to_o he_o he_o undergo_v it_o without_o complaint_n or_o murmur_a with_o a_o mind_n that_o seem_v entire_o resign_v to_o the_o sovereign_a disposer_n of_o all_o event_n and_o when_o he_o perceive_v the_o approach_n of_o death_n and_o find_v that_o he_o be_v go_v off_o this_o stage_n of_o mortal_n he_o never_o show_v the_o least_o sign_n of_o regret_n or_o reluctancy_n but_o take_v a_o solemn_a leave_n of_o his_o friend_n and_o which_o be_v much_o hard_a of_o his_o dear_a relative_n who_o stand_v lament_v and_o weep_v about_o he_o and_o this_o with_o a_o mind_n very_o serious_a indeed_o but_o in_o all_o appearance_n very_o calm_a and_o compose_v and_o final_o he_o give_v up_o the_o ghost_n like_o a_o brave_a man_n and_o a_o good_a christian_a with_o a_o firm_a and_o undaunted_a mind_n and_o as_o one_o that_o have_v place_v his_o main_a hope_n on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o grave_a and_o do_v expect_v to_o exchange_v a_o uneasy_a mortal_a life_n for_o a_o immortal_a one_o of_o pleasure_n and_o therefore_o though_o i_o make_v no_o doubt_n after_o all_o but_o that_o as_o a_o man_n he_o have_v his_o fault_n and_o he_o that_o have_v none_o let_v he_o cast_v the_o first_o stone_n yet_o i_o be_o sure_a he_o have_v his_o virtue_n and_o those_o very_a eminent_a one_o too_o and_o therefore_o it_o will_v high_o become_v we_o who_o survive_v in_o charity_n to_o cast_v a_o veil_n over_o the_o one_o and_o in_o piety_n imitate_v and_o transcribe_v the_o other_o that_o so_o with_o he_o and_o all_o our_o other_o christian_a brethren_n depart_v this_o life_n in_o god_n true_a faith_n and_o fear_n we_o may_v have_v our_o final_a consummation_n in_o bliss_n and_o glory_n through_o jesus_n christ_n our_o lord_n to_o who_o with_o the_o father_n
