I used to read it at all times; I acquired great skill in the science of physic, and the mystical art of philters. When he came out of the gate a vast crowd showered blessings on him. The nobleman and the merchant, seeing me with the Gusa,in, fell at his feet, and began to pour forth their blessings on him, saying, "by the favour of your holiness, this much at least has been effected."

After discourse he and I abroad, and walked up and down, and looked into many churches, among others Mr. Baxter's at Blackfryers. Then to the Wardrobe, where I found my Lord takes physic, so I did not see him, but with Captn. Ferrers in Mr. George Montagu's coach to Charing Cross; and there at the Triumph tavern he showed me some Portugall ladys, which are come to town before the Queen.

Lebuin, wherein he was buried before the altar he had served, which is dedicated in honour of St. Paul. His life that was adorned with virtue is more fully set forth in the DIALOGUS NOVITIORUM. Of the death of Everard of Eza, a Curate in Almelo and a great master of Physic.

Dissatisfaction with mechanism partly natural, and partly artificial. Biassed judgments inspired by moral inertia. Positive emotions proper to materialism. The material world not dead nor ugly, nor especially cruel. Mechanism restricted to one-half of existence. Men of science not speculative. Confusion in semi-moral subjects. "Physic of metaphysic begs defence." Evolution by mechanism.

There was a time when I swallowed more physic than food, and my body is still marked by the indelible scars of lancets, issues, and caustics." Such is his melancholy report.
