bishop of Winchester, was born at London in 1555, and educated at Cambridge. After several preferments he was made bishop, first of Chichester, then of Ely, and in 1618 was raised to the see of Winchester. This very learned prelate, who was distinguished by his piety, charity, and integrity, may be justly ranked with the best preachers and scholars of his age. He appeared, however, to much greater advantage in the pulpit than he does now in his works, which abound with Latin quotations and trivial witticisms. He died at Winchester house in Southwark, September 25, 1626, on the anniversary of his birth, and was buried in the parish church of St Saviour's, where his executors erected to him a handsome monument of marble and alabaster, with an elegant inscription in Latin, written by one of his chaplains. His most popular works are his Sermons, his Lectures on the Ten Commandments, and his Orphan Lectures, each forming a folio volume. There is a collection by Felix Kyngston of some other pieces written by him, which was published in 4to in 1629.
