To this he afterwards added _The Garden of Cyrus, or The Quincunxial Lozenge_, in which, in the language of Coleridge, he finds quincunxes "in heaven above, in the earth below, in the mind of man, in tones, optic nerves, in the roots of trees, in leaves, in everything." He died in 1682.
Numerous sects, all finding doctrine and forms in the Bible, were the issue of the religious and political controversies of the day.

Without entering into a consideration or even an enumeration of these, we now mention a few of the principal names among them.
RICHARD BAXTER .-- Among the most devout, independent, and popular of the religious writers of the day, Richard Baxter occupies a high rank.

He was born in 1615, and was ordained a clergyman in 1638.

In the civil troubles he desired to remain neutral, and he opposed Cromwell when he was made Protector.

In 1662 he left the Church, and was soon the subject of persecution: he was always the champion of toleration.
