Excerpt from The Works of Sir Thomas Browne, Vol. 1 Nothing now remains but to express my sense of obligation to the kindness of numerous friends who have rendered me advice, assistance, and encouragement. To enumerate them, were it possible to do so without omission after such a. Lapse of years might have rather the appearance Of parade than of gratitude while a solitary omission would expose me to the mortifying and undeserved imputation Of ingratitude. I shall therefore name but one, - to whom indeed both the first and the last place may be fairly said to belong - and through whose introduction the far greater number of my other literary obligations have been incurred. I mean my kind friend Thomas Amyot, Esq, who from the very commencement of my undertaking to its comple tion, has rendered me, in every possible way, and with an unsparing munificence of time, labour, and patience, his own various aid, and has ever been prompt to Obtain for me, among his extensive acquaintance, the help Of others. To him, and to every other individual from whom I have received the smallest particle of assistance, I beg to offer my most cordial thanks.

Excerpt from Works of Sir Thomas Browne After his return to England, Dr. Browne appears to have established himself in practice at Shipden Hall, near Halifax; and at this place, in the enforced leisure that generally falls to the lot of the young doctor, he doubtless wrote his first and most famous work, the Religio Medici. Internal evidences, derived from the references he makes to his age in the Religio Medici, almost certainly fix the actual year in which this unique 'piece of serene wisdom was written as 1635, when he was in his thirtieth year. He wrote: As yet I have not seen one revolution of Saturn, nor hath my pulse beat thirty years and again, in his preface to the edition of 1643: This, I confess, about seven years past, with some others of affinity thereto, for my private exercise and satisfaction, I had at leisure hours composed.'

Excerpt from Sir Thomas Browne, an Appreciation: With Some of the Best Passages English classic. And the urn-burz'zzl, the Christian Mardls, and the Leh'er to a Friend are all quite worthy to take their stand beside the Religioi Medici. Sir Thomas Browne made several other contributions to English litera ture besides these masterpieces; but it is on the Religio Medici, and on what Sir Thomas himself calls other pieces of affinity thereto, ' that his sure fame as a writer of noble truth and stately English most securely rests. Sir Thomas Browne was a physician of high stand ing and large practice all his days; and he was an antiquarian and scientific writer of the foremost information and authority: but it is the extraordinary depth and riches and imagina tive sweep of his mind, and his rare wisdom and Wealth of heart, and his quite wonderful English style, that have all combined together.

Excerpt from The Religio Medici and Other Writings of Sir Thomas Browne The greater part of the following three years was thus spent. Of the details of his life in France, Italy, and Flanders we have little knowledge but the Religio permits us one or two significant glimpses. We see the English Protestant student of medicine as he paces the streets of Montpellier or Padua with a crowd of companions even now, in the very heyday of dogmatic youth, listening, with lifted heart, to the Ave Mary bell, and moved, even to the point of weeping abundantly, as some solemn procession passes by, while my consorts, blind with opposition and prejudice, have fallen into an excess of scorn and laughter. Or we find him arguing with an Italian physician who could not believe perfectly the immortality of the soul, because Galen seemed to make a doubt thereof.
