Sermons on Evil-Speaking

by Isaac Barrow



Excerpt:
 Isaac Barrow was born in London in 1630.  His father was draper to the king.  His mother died when he was four years old.  He was named Isaac after an uncle, who died in 1680, Bishop of St. Asaph.  Young Isaac Barrow was educated at the Charterhouse School, and at Felstead, before he went, in 1643, to Cambridge.  He entered first at Peterhouse, where his uncle Isaac was a Fellow, but at that time his uncle was ejected from his Fellowship for loyalty to the King’s cause, and removed to Oxford; the nephew, who entered at Cambridge, therefore avoided Peterhouse, and went to Trinity College.  Young Barrow’s father also was at Oxford, where he gave up all his worldly means in service of the King.
