Excerpt from An Apology for the Study of Divinity: Being the Terminal Divinity Lecture Delivered in Bishop Cosin's Library Before the Bishop, the Dean and Chapter, and the University of Durham

I may perhaps excite some surprise in your minds, when I say that the choice of a subject on which to address you has-caused me very considerable embarrassment. Whatever other difficulties may arise, it would seem that a science so comprehensive as divinity must at least present an ample harvest of subjects for discussion. But it is in good truth its extent which causes the difficulty, and perplexes the choice. A single lecture cannot describe the variety of objects which the science embraces.
