In-Text So when the famous William of Wainflet (as Budden tells us) made it his choice to devest himself of the High Chancellorship of England, and gave the King immortal Thanks for giving him liberty so to do, He did it not only as being weary of the Cares which That Office had fill'd him with, (thô That perhaps was one reason,) nor did he it only as being glutted with the Things of This World, to wit with the Riches and Honours of it; (thô that was also another reason;) But it was chiefly that he might mind the greater things of the Next with the less Distraction; that he might not as before, serve God by Snatches, but that the Residue of his Time might be wholly God's. Many others might here be nam'd ( Seven at least I am sure,) who eas'd themselves (as being weary ) of the Great Seal of England, in order to their advancement unto far greater things in a World to come.
