Educatio praestans ei opportunitates dedit quae ei civilitatem, historiam, medicinam, theologiam penitus contemplari siverunt. Traditur sua bibliotheca propria plus quam 800 libros comprehendisse, quorum autem plurimi perditi sunt cum domus combureretur. Haec calamitas poema excitavit nomine "Upon the Burning of Our House July 10th, 1666" ('De nostra domo combusta, 10 Iulii 1666'); quod attestatur eam, iram vel maestitiam a casu quotidiano effectam reiciens, potius Deo confidere confirmationique caelum consolationem fore, dicens:
Verba Anglica: From "Upon the Burning of Our House July 10th, 1666"
Verba Latina conversa: Ex "De nostra domu combusta, 10 Iulii 1666"
And when I could no longer look,
I blest His grace that gave and took,
That laid my goods now in the dust.
Yea, so it was, and so 'twas just.
It was his own; it was not mine.
Far be it that I should repine.
Et cum aspicere non iam possem, gratiam quae dedit et dempsit benedixi,
quae mea bona nunc in pulvere posuit.
Ita, hoc modo fuit, et ergo fuit iusta.
Fuit ipsius; mea non fuit.
Minime sit ego ut conquerar.
