BURGESS, DANIEL (1645-1713)

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 814 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BUN-CAL
BURGESS, DANIEL (1645-1713) , English Presbyterian divine, was born at Staines, in
Middlesex
 , where his father was minister. He was educated under Busby at Westminster school, and in 166o was sent to Magdalen
Hall
 , Oxford, but not being able conscientiously to subscribe the necessary formulae he quitted the university without taking his degree. In 1667, after taking orders, he was appointed by Roger Boyle, first Lord
Orrery
 , to the headmastership of a school recently established by that nobleman at Charleville. Co. Cork, and soon after he became private chaplain to Lady Mervin, near Dublin. There he was
ordained by the local presbytery, and on returning to England was imprisoned for preaching at Marlborough. He soon regained his liberty, and went to London, where he speedily gathered a large and influential congregation, as much by the somewhat excessive fervour of his piety as by the vivacious illustrations which he frequently employed in his sermons. He was a master of epigram, and theologically inclined to Calvinism. The Sacheverell mob gutted his chapel in 1710, but the government repaired the building. Besides preaching, he gave instruction to private pupils, of whom the most distinguished was
Henry
  St John, afterwards Lord Bolingbroke. His son, Daniel Burgess (d. 1747), was secretary to the princess of Wales, and in 1723 obtained a
regium
  donum or government grant of 500 half-yearly for dissenting ministers.
