Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lives of Donne, Wotton, Hooker, Herbert, and Sanderson, Vol. 2 About forty years past (for I am now in the seventieth Of my age) I began a happy afinity with William Cranmer (now with God), grand nephew unto the great Archbishop Of that name; a family Of noted prudence and resolution. With him and two of his sisters I had an entire and free fi'iendship. One Of them was the wife of Dr. Spencer, 'a bosom-friend, and sometime com-pupil with Mr. Hooker in Corpus Christi College in Oxford, and after President Of the same. I name them here, for that I shall have occasion to men tion them in this following discourse as also their brother, of whose useful abilities my reader may have a more authentic testimony than my pen can purchase for him, by that of our learned Camden and others.
