Epitaph in the Parish Church of Epsom, in Surry.

יהוה

Glory to God alone.

Sacred to the Memory

Of the Rev. JOHN PARKHURST, M. A.

Of this Parish,

And descended from the PARKHURSTS of Catesby in

Northamptonshire.

His Life was distinguished,

Not by any Honours in the Church, but by deep and

laborious Researches

Into the Treasures of divine Learning, The Fruits of which are preserved in two invaluable

Lexicons,

Wherein the original Text of the
Old and New Testament is interpreted
With extraordinary Light and Truth.

Reader!

If Thou art thankful to God that such a Man lived, Pray for the Christian World,

That neither the Pride of false Learning, nor the Growth of Unbelief

May so far prevail as to render his pious Labours
In any Degree ineffectual.

He lived in Christian Charity,
And departed in Faith and Hope,
On the 21st Day of February, 1797,
In the 69th Year of his Age.
