[No. 49. 



" Needs must I extoll his worth and his blood — 

 Come love mee where I lay ; 

 And his sn-eet disposition soe milde and soe good — 

 The cle:me contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way. 



" Those innocent smiles that embelish his face. 

 Come love mee where I lay ; 

 Who sees them not tokens of goodness and grace — 

 The cleane contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way. 



" And what other scholler could ever arise. 

 Come love mee where I lay ; 

 From a master that was soe sincere and wise — 

 The cleane contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way. 



" Who is hee could now from his grave but ascend, 

 Come love mee where 1 lay ; 

 Would surely the truth of his service commend — 

 The cleane contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way. 



" Tlie king understands how he honors his place, 

 Come love me where I lay ; 



Which is to his majestic noe little grace 



The cleane contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way. 



" And therefore the government justly hath hee. 

 Come love mee where I lav ; 

 Of horse for the land, and shipps for the sea — 

 The cleane contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way. 



" What, though our fleet be our enemies debtor. 

 Come love mee where I lay ; 

 Wee hrav'd them once, and wee'l brave them better — 

 The cleane contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way. 



" And should they land heere they should bee disjointed, 

 Come love mee where I lay ; 

 And find hoth our horse and men bravely appointed — 

 The cleane contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way. 



" Then let us sing all of this noble duke's praise, 

 Come love nite where I lav ; 

 And pray for the length of his life and his dales — 

 The cleane contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way. 



" And when that dealh shall close up his eyes, 

 Come love mee where I lay ; 

 God take him up into the skies — 

 The cleane contrary way, 

 O the cleane contrary way."

" WHOI.E DUXr OF MAN, AUTHOR OF. 



(From Baker's MSS, vol. xxxv. p. 469—470. 

 Cambridge University Library.) 



« Octo' 31. 1698. Mr. Thomas Caulton, Vicar of 

 Worksop, &c. [as in the note p. xiii. to the editor's 

 Preface, ed. 1842, with unimportant variations, such as 

 Madam Frances Heathrote, where the printed copy has 

 Mrs. Heat/icote ; Baker reads Madam Ayre of Rampton 

 after dinner tooh, where the printed copy has, Mrs. Eyre, 

 After was dead, follows in Baker,] and that in that 

 Month she had buried her Husband and severall Rela- 

 tions ; hut that her comfort was, that by her Monthly 

 Sacraments she participated still with them in the 

 Communion of Saints. 



" Then she went to her Closet, and fetched out a 

 Manuscript, w''' she said was the original of the Whole 

 Duty of Slan, tied together and stitched, in 8'°, like 

 Sermon notes. She untied it, saying, it was Dr. Fell's 

 Correction ; and that the Author was the Lady Pack- 

 ington (her Mother), in whose hand it was written. 



" To prove this, the s'' ]\Ir. Caulton further added 

 that she said, she had shewn it to Dr. Covell, INJaster 

 of Christ's College * in Cambridge, Dr. Stamford, 

 Preb. of York, and iVlr. Banks, the present Incumbent 

 of the Great Church in Hull. She added, withall, 

 that The Decay of Christian Piety washers (The Lady 

 Packington's) also, but disowned any of the rest to be 

 her Mother's. 



" This is a true Copy of what I wrote, from Mr. 

 Caulton's Mouth, two days before his Decease. 

 " Witness my hand, 

 " Nov. 15. 98. 



" John Hewtt." 



" Bp. Fell tells us, that all these Tracts were written 

 by the excellent Author (whom he makes to be one and 

 the same person) at severall times, as y° exigence of 

 the Church, and the benefit of soules directed y' com- 

 posures ; and that he (the Author) did likewise pub- 

 lish them apart, in the same order as they were made. 

 The last, it seems (w"^*" is The Lively Oracles), came 

 out in 1678, the very year Mr. Woodliead died. Had 

 the Author liv'd longer, we should have had his Tract 

 Of the Govtrninent of the Thoughts, a work he had 

 undertaken ; and certainly (as B]). Fell hath told us), 

 had this work been finished, 'twould have equali'd, if 

 not excelled, whatever that inimitable hand had for- 

 merly wrote Withall it may be observ'd, that the 

 Author of these Tracts speaks of the great Pestilence, 

 and of the great Fire of London, both v/'^^ happen'd 

 after the Re>toration, whereas Bp. Chappell died in 

 1649. And further, in sect. vii. of the Lively Oracles, 

 n. 2., are these words, w'^'' I think cannot agree to Bp. 

 Chappell [and less to Mr. Woodhead]. I would not 

 be hasty in charging Idolatry upon the Church of Ron e, 

 or all in her Communion ; hut that their Image- IVorsliip 

 is a most fatall snare, in w''' vast numbers of unhappy 

 Souls are taken, no Man can doubt, who hath with any 

 Regard travailed in Popish Countries : I myself, and 

 thousands of others, whom the late troubles, or other occa- 

 sions, sent abroad, are, and have been witnesses thereof,
