He set up among the Ministers a course of teaching every Family from house to house, of which he found incredible fruit; For all this his labour he endured the affronts, contradictions, and reproaches of the rabble, yea and sometime hath been beaten by them: because he would not administer the Sacrament to ungodly men, that were rulers in the place, he was at first banished, and after threatened, and continually molested by them, and railing fellows set to preach and write against him. And whether he were an Epicure, you may soon judge: He always used a very spare diet: and for ten years before his death did did never taste one bit, but at supper, as his constant course so that every day was with him a better fast then the Papists use to make on their fasting days. By this extreme labour, speaking, and fasting, and watching (for he dictated his writings as he lay in bed much,) he overthrew his body, and falling first into a Tertian, and then into a Quartan, after that he fell into a Consumption, with the gout and stone, and spitting of blood, and the disease in the Hemorrhoid veins, which ⟨p. 195⟩at last ulcerated by over much fasting, speaking, and use of Aloes; besides the head-ache which was the companion of his life. In these sickness he would never forbear his labour, but when he he was persuaded to it, he told them, that he could not bear an idle life. And when he was near to death was still at work, asking those that entreated him to forbear, Whether they would have God find him idle? Under all these pains of Gout, Stone, Colic, Head-ache, Hemorrhoids, Consumption, &c. those that were about him testified to the world that they never heard him speak a word unbeseeming a patient Christian. The worst was that oft repeated word [How long, Lord! how long!] as being weary of a miserable world. Witnesses he had enough; for he could scarce have rest, for people crowding to him to visit him. On Mar. 23. he went among the Ministers to their Meeting, and took his farewell of them there. The next day he was wearied by it: but the twenty seventh day he was carried to the Court to the Senate of the City, where he made a speech to them, and took his farewell of them, with many tears on both sides. April. 2. he was carried to Church, and staid the Sermon, and received the Sacrament. Afterward the Senate of the City came to him, and he made an heavenly Exhortation to them.
