rhehi^^ of Mr. KkY. 3 
When he was come to Trinity- 
College., ]ie had the Happinefs to have 
Dr. Duport for his Tutor; a Man 
well known for his Learning; parti- 
cularly for his great Skill in Greek, 
which he gave the World good Proof 
of, in his Homer ical Tranflations of 
Job and the other Hagiographa. 
Under this -learned Tutor, Mr.. 
Ray fo clofely applied himfelf to his 
Studies, that what he miffed of at 
Braintree School, he fufficiently at- 
tained to at Trmity-College ; having 
acquired great. Skill in Greek and La- 
tin, and I have good Reafon to think 
in Hebrew alfo. Behdes which, I 
find, by fome of his Papers written 
about that Time, that he was very 
early an excellent Orator and Natu- 
ralift : And upon the Account, of his 
great Diligence, Learning, and Virtue, 
' he was foon taken Notice of. by the 
Be. College;
