which shall be due to me from my church livings (except those of the deanery tithes, which are now let to the rev. doctor Wilson) as soon as the said arrears can be paid to my executors. I also leave the said John five pounds to be laid out in buying such physical or chirurgical books, as doctor Grattan and Mr. Nichols shall think fit for him.
Item: I bequeath to Mrs. Ann Ridgeway, now in my family, the profits of the lease of two houses let to John Cownly, for forty years, of which only eight or nine are expired, for which the said Cownly payeth me nine pounds sterling for rent, yearly. I also bequeath to the said Anne, the sum of one hundred pounds sterling, to be paid her by my executors in six weeks after my decease, out of whatever money or bank bills I may possess when I die: as also three gold rings, the remainder of the seven above-mentioned, after Mrs. Whiteway hath made her choice of four: and all my small pieces of plate not exceeding in weight one ounce and one third part of an ounce.
Item: I bequeath to my dearest friend Alexander Pope of Twickenham, esq., my picture in miniature, drawn by Zinck, of Robert late earl of Oxford.
Item: I leave to Edward now earl of Oxford, my seal of Julius Cæsar, as also another seal, supposed to be a young Hercules, both very choice antiques, and set in gold; both which I choose to bestow to the said earl, because they belonged to her late most excellent majesty queen Anne, of ever glorious, immortal, and truly pious memory, the real nursing mother of her kingdoms.
