Thomas Lennard, Earl of Suffex. Having received a liberal education in England, he was fent to the University of Laufanne in Switzerland, and afterwards made the tour of Europe, whereby he became compleated in in every polite accomplishment, as a gentleman and scholar. In Italy he not only made himself master of the language, but acquired great knowledge in the polite arts, particularly architecture, to his fkill in which his feat of Bellhouse owes that elegant neatnefs of its decorations from defigns made by himself, and executed under his own immediate intpection, in compleating which he contracted a disorder that deprived him of the use of his limbs for feveral years before his death, and prevented him from enjoying an extenfive fet of valuable acquaintance: but thofe few whom he diftinguished with his friendfhip were felected with the niceft judgement, for their virtues and learning. His lordship's intimate knowledge of the hißory, antiquities, and genealogies of these kingdoms, is evident from the great affistance, several of our beft writers on thefe fubjects have acknowledged they received from him. In politicks be was (to ufe his own words), a true and zealous friend of liberty, and the proteftant religion.
