Summary

He confessed to one who was late Fellow, that he would not alter his religion for ten provostships; and to another he brake forth into these words, ‘I would every man might keep his conscience, and so would I too.’ That his stomach was much against those that made profession of true religion, that he grieved them continually by his injurious and partial dealing: so that the Divines labouring, and nothing prevailing, to bring the house into better order, utterly discouraged, had in a manner all forsaken the college. That he allowed one Clark to be absent from the Communion for nine or ten years, licensing him to go abroad at such time as he should communicate, expressly contrary to the statutes: and that this Fellow never had received the Communion but once, namely, the last Easter, fearing lest otherwise it might hinder his suit for the proctorship. That out of the said Clark's window there flew a taunting letter against Divines, abusing the Bishop of London's credit, calling the preachers in derision great Gospellers, and their visitation a visitation of devils instead of Divines.
