[Richard Greenham was born circa 1531 and died in 1591. He was a singularly ardent preacher, and Brook, in his Lives of the Puritans, says, that "in addition to his public ministerial labours he had a remarkable talent for comforting afflicted consciences." His Works were first collected in 1599.]
[870] See Perkin's Works, fol. 1616, vol. i. p. 11; where is a large half sheet folded, containing, A survey, or table, declaring the order of the causes of salvation and damnation, &c. the pedigree of damnation being distinguished by a broad black zig-zag line.
[William Perkins (1558-1602). Brook says of him, that he used to pronounce the word damn with so peculiar an emphasis "that it left a doleful echo in the eares a long time after." His works were frequently reprinted, and, according to Fuller, were translated into Latin, French, Dutch, and Spanish.]
