CXXXVIIl.—-EMANUEL COLLEGE PIC- 
TURE GALLERY. / 
In Roman Catholic countries, portraits 
are fometimes made votive offerings, and 
the objects of adoration: ‘in Proteftant 
they are keep-fakes. In colleges more 
particularly they may be confidered as 
family-pitures, mementos of members 
or benefaétors deceafed. 
Oxford can boaft a good piéture-gallery 
at Chrift Church, containing befides por- 
traits of its members ard benefactors, 
many paintings by foreign matters. Cam- 
bridge exhibits nothing equal to this. 
The principal thing of the kind is at 
Emanuel College, But this gallery pof- 
feffes little, that is very excellent. ‘We 
will notice the following portraits, ac- | 
companying them with two or three 
hints. 
1. Sir Walter Mildmay, the founder in 
Queen Elizabeth’s reign. When he had 
it in contemplation to found Emanuel 
College, being at Court, her Majefty faid— 
** So, Sir Walter, I hear you have erect- 
eda Puritan College.”—** No, Madam, 
{replied he,) far be it from me'to counten- 
ance any thing contrary to youreftablifhed’ ’ 
Jaws. But I have fet an acorn, which, 
when it becomes an oak, God alone 
knows what will be the fruit thereof.’ 
However, the fociety rather favoured of 
Puritanifm, and hence the old fong, called 
the Mad Puritan : ; 
Am I mad, moft noble Feftus, 
While zeal and godly knowledge, 
Has made me to hope, 
As well as the beft in the college ? 
Boldly 1 preach, hate a crofs, hate a furplice, 
Mitres, copes, and rockets; , 
Come hear me pray, nine times a day, 
And fill your heads with crotchets, 
In the houfe of pure Emanuel: 
I had my education, 
Where. my friends furmize 
J dazzled'my eyes ae 
With the light of Revelation. 7" 
Boldly I preach, &c. :

among other. things, Specialties of his 
Life, Hard Meafure, Songs in the Night, 
and Meditations, have been admired. Ir

modefty, that in the Specialties of his 
Life, he takes no notice of his poems; 
for he was the firf of our Englith Sa- 
tirifts.
