Even our Saviour preached liberty and equality.
From his pillar he preached and exercised a great influence, converting numbers of heathen and taking part in ecclesiastical politics.
He assisted the elder Calamy in writing Smectymnuus (1641), and preached before parliament in 1643.
He preached in Quincy, and in 1859-64 in Salem, Massachusetts, and in 1862-63 was chaplain of the 40th Massachusetts Volunteers.
About 1639 he entered upon the career of an itinerant preacher, and for preaching in various parts of Wales he was twice arrested in 1640; however, he was not punished and during the Civil War he preached in and around London.
