MSS. from the king’s library; but the civil wars, and the 
seizure of the royal library, prevented the accomplishment of 
his purpose. During the troubles of this period, he sought 
an asylum with a son-in-law, at Bromfield in Essex, where 
he died in 1652. 
Young is said to have indulged to excess a disposition to 
oblige, which led him to lend valuable MSS. belonging to 
the royal library to foreigners and others; and he has been 
charged with betraying his trust, by not returning MSS. 
which he removed to his own house in contemplation of the 
pillage of the library, and these were sold among his other 
effects. To obviate this imputation, it has been alleged that 
he purchased for himself many MSS. from Greeks who visited 
this country.— Smith's Vit. Erudit. Viror. Gen. Biog.
