A fourth volume containing one hundred and fifty sermons on several texts of Scripture…

Your Lordship had the Opportunity of an intimate Acquaintance with him, and the Advantage of sitting under his Ministry for many Years, in whose Light you greatly rejoiced, while God continued him with us; and when he was pleased to remove him by Death, the afflictive Sense you had of that great and public, as well as your own private Loss, showed the high Value and Esteem you had of him. But your Respects to him were not buried in his Grave, but have been upon all Occasions ever since shown to his surviving Relations, who desire hereby to make their public Acknowledgements of your Lordship's signal Favours to them. And I beg your Lordship, upon this Occasion, to give me leave to make the like Acknowledgements of that Support, Countenance and Respects I have had from your Lordship for above sixteen Years I have been your Chaplain; since it was by the means of this Author that I had the Honour of being taken into your Lordship's Family.

My Lord, God hath set your Lordship in a very high and honourable Station, in which you have shined as a Light upon a Hill: And as he hath given you great Opportunities, so he hath also given you a large Heart to serve him; and this hath given you a large Room in the Hearts of those that fear God, and hath made your Name to be truly Great and Honourable. How amiable a thing is it to see Greatness and Goodness in Conjunction!
