Excerpt from Browne's Religio Medici and Digby's Observations I meerely owe this title to the Font, my education, or Clime wherein I was borne, as being bred up either to con firme thofe principles my Parents infiil led into my unwary underl'tanding; or by a generall confent proceed in the Re ligion of my Countrey: But having, in my riper yeares, and confirmed judge ment, feene and examined all, I finde my felfe obliged by the principles of Grace, and the law of mine owne reafon, to embrace no other name but this neither doth herein my zeale fo farre make me forget the generall charitie I owe unto humanity, as rather to hate then pity Turkes, Infidels, and (what is worfe) Jewes, rather contenting my felfe to en Joy that happy fiile, then maligning thofe who refufe fo glorious a title.
