The Tutl^i are generally well complexioned, of good

doers of things fupertluous. They are hot and vencreou;,
fervile to their I'rmce, and zealous to their Religion,
they nourifhnohair upon their heads, exceut it be a
tuft upon the top of their heads, by which they think
that MAkomit will (natch them up into Paradile at the
day of Judijmcnt. Thty account it an opprobrious thing
to unMvcr their hcadb. In their orti:'.ary falutations

As they pais in the fireets, they prefer the left hand be-

They are expert at their bow, and (hooting is their or-

V
A Propoftt for the Propagation of the Blcffcd
Cofpd in all Pagan Countries.
BY what hath been britlly iaid in the Thiul Parrot" thisTrea-
tife concerning the ftace ui Kc'.ig'm in all Countries of the
World, it may luHficientlv appear in general, Tlutthe CbrilUan
Riligmhoi a very Imall exccnr, if cxadiy compared with thole
many and vaft Counrries uhich ar^- whoHy ovcrlpread witli Rtofs
JioUtirSy numerous Mibofimis, and niniv others who tifhcr
know not, or (at Icaft) own not the Biellcil MtJJiah. But more
particularly, this great and lad Truth deth farther appear by the
following calculation, ingeniouUy made by fome, who dividing
the inhabited World into ^o parts, do find that
19 of them \ f Blind and grofs IdoUtfru
6 of them / ) Je^'s, Turh and Saracm.
2 of chem>are polltlTed by < Thole of the Ontl: Church.
r ) Thoie 0^ ^Cbmh of Komc.
5 of them ^ ^ jl,^; I i^fottllmt Cominmon.
Thus Chii'limt) taken tn its largcfi Latitude, bears no greater
proportion to the other grofly falfc Religions, than 5 to 25. This
' melandiolly coniidcration doth force me to bewail the vvotui ne-
j'icft of the befl pait ot the Chrillian Church, for not being fo

Great Sirs,
Pjnlon tills Propofal here ofF.r'J to tlic fcrious confideration of
tliofc whom it chicriy concerns •, and give me leave to declare
unto you, how infinitely it would tend to tlic Glory of God, the
good of his Ch:rch, and honour of our Nitioi, did \vc fmcercly
endeavour to extend the limits of our Saviours Kingdom with
thofe of our new Dominion'; \ and to fprcad the true Rifnrmid
Rf.'/i;ma5 far a? the Eii;Uh Sail; have done for Traffick. With
what anxiety of Mind, and fa-ic^uc of Bbiy, do \vc pierce into
the remotcilCojnrriesof rhc Worll ? And all to heap up a little
White and Tflyiiv E<in,u or to piirchafe fome things (call'd Pji-
cii'i by Man) which [Vsilr.ifV'iig Human Kancy'j do ditfcrnothins^
from common Piob'c 'Hams ■■, and yet what a fupinc ncglcrt doiii
attend ns? in dome fh.ir wliich would bring more honour to our
Holy Religion, and pnve at Ufl more profitable to oar felves,
tlian ttff avlual polTelfion of all the Treafum in the Univeric.
Whata lam>:ncable rhint; i-^i it ? That thofe very In-Ham who inhabit
near on the Englih IVicfmr to menrion feme thoufandsot Kegroa
who ll.ive in niirSi-rvice) fliouhl full continue in mofi: wretched
It^noranec, and in ffeidof knowing .md wi-rfhiping the true God,
flnuld as yet reverence not only Stnrl-i and Stem, bur alio adore
the Dn?7 himfclf, O Clinlltans. Oiail we covet and thirrt after
tlicir Ti'.ints ot Gold > and vet keep hid in a Napkin that Taitnt
cncnifted to us, Sliall we greedily bereave them of their Pr{n~
a Purls ? and not declare unto tlicm tlie knowledge of the
PeiH nf Price. No ! No ! Let ud not aft as others have dotie in
making Gold our G^id, and Gzin thf loL' dcficn ot our Trading ;
but let us effv^lually improve thole choice oi.fpcrtunitie5 fnow in
ourhand<) for the lingular Glory of our great God, and (>t jefu:
Chrirt our l,;e;k'd Redeemer. And let our l'lanter= duly comider-.
That to extirpate Narives. is rather a tranfplanfing than planting,
