DescriptionThe sermon begins as follows: ‘Let me speak of The Beloved Jesus of Nazareth, who, This morning hath opened Hims. in Life & Pow’r; He is The Great High Priest, The Blessed Sheapherd of ye Sheep; Who fro[m] ye Heart of God Breatheth forth His Sweet Oyntm[en]ts all Over Paradice, & thro all Worlds, Down to ye Poor & Needy […]’. The sermon does not appear to be based on any particular text.
Source of DataBritish Library online catalogue; Hannah Yip.
Other NoteWritten in an unskilled round hand. The sermon is written in the same hand as ‘Concerning Man’s Eternal Form’ (dated 25 June 1697) and the other essays following (ff. 70r–77v). The present cataloguer therefore conjectures that the sermon was composed within the last eleven years of Thomas Bromley’s life. Thomas Bromley died on 13 April 1691.
