He was author of a poem, 'entitled, Psyche, which has
been sometimes given to Beaumont, the dramatic
writer: he also wrote Annotations on St. Paul's Epistles,
and Observations on the Apology of Dr. Henry More,
of Christ College. He died Nov. 23, 1699. It is
singular enough that there should be two monuments
erected to his memory, one a gravestone, the other a
mural monument, about the College chapel: on one,
there is a most extraordinarily eulogistic inscription :
among other things, he was Hæreticorum malleus.

The last ejected loyalist I shall mention is John Bar-
grave. He was cast out by the Duke of Manchester,
under a warrant dated 13th of Feb. 1644. He then
passed a few years in Italy. On his return, after the
Restoration, he commenced B. D. at Oxford, and was
made Canon of Canterbury, where he died. He was
the author of a work, entitled, Itinerario d'Italia a, or at
least, engaged with others in it.

a When I was at Canterbury Cathedral, I there perused a very curi-ous account of Antiquities, Rarities, and Coins, in that library, left by Dr. Bargrave, entitled, Rara, et Antiqua, et Numismata Bargraviana, Roma, et aliis Italiæ locis, diversis, nempe quatuor, Italiæ Itineribus, collecta. In this narrative is an account of obelisks, pieces of loadstone, with their qualities, the Pæstic Antiche, Romane Incognite, and the Caves, ten miles under ground, round Rome, where the Catacombs are, mountain crystals, and pumice stones. His account of the Camelion exactly accords with what I witnessed of it myself, for I once saw a live Camelion (a rara avis) in the Physic Garden at Chelsea, that was brought there by Banks and Solander.

There were also a few MSS. belonging to Dr. Bargrave's Collection, that are curious. In this Library too, are the Numismata Bargraviana, some medallions, but copies, in brass and lead: some originals, in lead. There are between 4 and 500 of his ancient coins, among which is mentioned an OTRO: but I have heard it doubted whether any Othos were ever struck.

After the Restoration, some of these ejected loyalists were handsomely provided for in the church, or restored to college. The names of the Puritan or Parliament party then put out, are not found in the place where I should have expected to find them, Dr. Calamy's Abridgment of the Life and Times of Mr. Baxter: they are mentioned, and that is all, by Mr. Walker. I am not, indeed, aware that they wrote any thing, except Dr. Lazarus Seaman, the ejected Master, but of him even Anthony Wood speaks as a learned divine. He wrote a Vindication of the Judgment of the Reformed Churches, concerning Ordination, and laying on of Hands a; and a few sermons, preached before the Long Parliament, being then one of the assembly of divines. He was Vice-chancellor at the time the University addressed to Oliver Cromwell the Oliva Pacis, and wrote the Introductory Poem, and Peroration. Dr. Seaman held the living of All-Hallows, Bread Street, London, whence he was ejected by the Act of Uniformity, and died 1675.

Mr. Daniel Cawdry, though not a Fellow, had been of this House, and also one of the assembly of divines he wrote what Dr. Calamy calls an excellent book, entitled, Sabbatum Redivivum, or the Christian Sabbath Vindicated, in two volumes; the first edition printed in 1645, the second in 1652. He also published a Duplex Diatribe, concerning Superstition, Will-Worship, and the Christmas Festival; to which Dr. Ham

mond wrote an answer; and to the answer Mr. Cawdry replied. He also published some other pieces. He was a Presbyterian, and ejected by the Act of Uniformity, 1662, from the living of Great Billing, Northamptonshire.

Mr. Francis Talents, ejected also from his living by the same act, had been first of Peter House, a person of considerable learning, and author of a very curious work; but of which under Magdalen College.

One Puritan, I cannot help noticing, educated at Peter House, who was greatly distinguished in the history of those times; and, if no author himself, the occasion of making one; Colonel Hutchinson's Memoirs, written by his lady, lately published, have been much admired: from the Memoirs it appears, that Colonel Hutchinson was admitted of this college: he used to say, the college, at that time, was Popish and Arminian-and, expressions indicating his party dislikes, he himself, as well as Mrs. H. being a Calvinist.

Following on from these tumultuous times, we find a due succession of literary men, who were educated in this ancient foundation.

William Sherlock, master of the Temple, and Dean of St. Paul's, obtained reputation as a divine, being known by his Practical Discourses on Death and Judgment. He had been a student of this college; and took his A.M. degree in 1660; his S. T. P. in 1680. Dr. Sherlock continued for some time a nonjuror, but at length took the oath to King William. This occasioned various animadversions on his conduct, which caused him to write a
