Sinossi

Excerpt from The General Biographical Dictionary, Vol. 21: Containing an Historical and Critical Account of the Lives and Writings of the Most Eminent Persons in Every Nation; Particularly the British and Irish; From the Earliest Accounts to the Present Time

Lyford (william), a pious clergyman of the seven teenth century, was born about 1598, at Peysmere, near Newbury in Berkshire, of which place his father was rec tor. In 1614 he became a commoner of Magdalen hall, Oxford, and a clemy of Magdalen college in 1617. In 1622 he took his degree of M. A. And was then chosen a fellow. In 1631 he was admitted to the reading of the sentences, and, having taken orders, was presented to the living of Shirburne, in Dorsetshire, by John Earl of Bristol. Here, says Wood, he was very much resorted to for his edifying and practical way of and appears indeed to have' deserved the affections of his flock, by the most constant d1ligence in d1scharging the duties of his office. He divided his day into the following portions: nine hours for study, three for visits and con ferences with his parishioners, three for prayers and devo tion, two for his affairs, and the rest for his refreshment. He divided likewise his estate into three parts, one for the use of his family, one for a reserve in case of future wants, and one for pious uses. His parish he divided into twenty eight parts, to be visited in twenty-eight days every month, leaving, says one of his biographers, knowledge where he found ignorance, justice where he found oppression, peace where he found contention, and order where he found irregularity.
