LATE FELLOW OF PEMBROKE COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE;

"But among all our joys, there was no one that more filled our hearts, than the
blessed continuance of the preaching of God's sacred word among us; which is that
inestimable treasure, which excelleth all the riches of the earth; because the fruit
thereof extendeth itself, not only to the time spent in this transitory world, but
directeth and disposeth men unto that eternal happiness which is above in
Heaven." Dedication to King James' Bible.
