I may not live to see it. Most likely I shall not. But it will come."''

			:Dean Burgon said: "It is suspected that we all read the Bible much too fast. We do not linger over the words as if we loved them, and were loth to pass on. ”O how sweet are Thy words unto my throat : yea, sweeter than honey unto my mouth,”—said one of old time (Psa 119:103). Truly, the man must have delighted in the words of Holy Scripture, who could so express himself! And yet, nothing knew he of the consolation of the Gospel. Now, I do not find that readers of the present day commonly feel towards Holy Scripture as he seems to have felt. Seldom is the attempt made to retain on the palate the flavour of the words of Inspiration. It follows, that we seldom notice the peculiarities of Divine expression; seldom detect covert hints or allusions, or avail ourselves of the less obvious teaching of the Spirit. Thus, we do not fully apprehend what we read ; and when we come before the world, we "therefore do err, — not knowing the Scriptures.” (Mat. 22:29) [John W. Burgon, "A Treatise on the Pastoral Office," p. 5]

			[[Herman C. Hoskier]] said in the late 1800's:

			:Three and a half years ago I was in [[Dean Burgon]]'s study at Chichester. It was midnight, dark and cold without; he had just extinguished the lights, and it was dark, and getting cold within. We mounted the stairs to retire to rest, and his last words of that night have often rung in my ears since :

			:''"As surely as it is dark now, and as certainly as the sun will rise to-morrow morning, so surely will the [[Textus Receptus\|traditional text]] be vindicated and the views I have striven to express be accepted. I may not live to see it. Most likely I shall not. But it will come."''

			==Burgon Quotes==
			So far from "its paramount claim to the respect of future generations," being " the restitution of a more ancient and a purer Text,"—I venture to predict that the edition of the two Cambridge Professors will be hereafter remembered as indicating the furthest point ever reached by the self-evolved imaginations of English disciples of the school of Lachmann, Teschendorf, Tregelles. p. xxviii

			If so, though you (Dr. Hort) may ' have no doubt' as to which is the purer manuscript ... One is reminded of a passage
			in p. 61: viz.—
			If we find in any group of documents a succession of Readings exhibiting an exceptional purity of text, that is,—
			Readings which the fullest consideration of Internal Evidence pronounces to be right, in opposition to formidable arrays of Documentary Evidence; the cause must be that, as far at least as these Readings are concerned, some one exceptionally pure MS. was the common ancestor of all the members of the group.' p. 253

			Hort .. informs us (p. 276) that "the fullest consideration does but increase the conviction that the preeminent relative purity" of those two codices is approximately absolute,—a true approximate reproduction of the Text of the Autographs.' p. 284

			Hort .. according to him those primitive Fathers have been the great falsifiers of Scripture; have proved the worst enemies of the pure Word of God .. p. 290

			Hort ... how can he possibly overlook the circumstance that, unless he is able to demonstrate that those two codices, and especially the former of them, has preserved not only a very ancient Text, but a very pure line
			of ancient Text' also (p. 251), his entire work, (inasmuch as it reposes on that one assumption,) on being critically handled, crumbles to its base; or rather melts into thin air before the first puff of wind ? p. 305-306

			Dr. Hort ... his fundamental position, viz. that Codex B is so exceptionally pure a document as to deserve to be taken as a chief guide in determining the Truth of Scripture. p. 306

			Dr. Hort ...considers that his individual 'strong preference' of one set of Readings above another, is sufficient to determine whether the Manuscript which contains those Readings is pure or the contrary. p. 307

			And thus, I venture to presume, the imagination has been at last effectually disposed of, that because Codices B and א are the two oldest Greek copies in existence, the Text exhibited by either must therefore be the purest Text which
			is anywhere to be met with. p. 328

			Compromise of any sort between the two conflicting parties, is impossible also; for they simply contradict one another. Codd. B and x are either among the purest of manuscripts,—or else they are among the very foulest. The Text of Drs. Westcott and Hort is either the very best which has ever appeared,—or else it is the very worst; the nearest to the sacred Autograplis,—or the furthest from them.

			John Burgon, after carefully collating Vaticanus B and Sinaiticus Aleph, made this statement about these two manuscripts:

			"How ready the most recent editors of the New Testament have shewn themselves to hammer the sacred text on the anvil of Codices B and Aleph... it is easier to find two consecutive verses in which the two MSS differ, the one from the other, than two consecutive verses in which they entirely agree. Now this is a plain matter of fact, of which any one who pleases may easily convince himself." (John Burgon, The Last Twelve Verses Of Mark, p 77-78)

	His biographical essays on [[Henry Longueville Mansel]] and others were also collected, and published under the title of ''Twelve Good Men'' ([[1888 AD\|1888]]). Protests against the inclusion of Dr Vance Smith among the revisers, against the nomination of [[Dean Stanley]] to be select preacher in the University of Oxford, and against the address in favour of toleration in the matter of ritual, followed in succession.

	During his first year the family moved to London, where he was sent to school. After a few years of business life, working in his father's counting-house<sup>[]</sup>, Burgon went to [[Worcester College, Oxford]], in [[1841 AD\|1841]], and took his degree in [[1845 AD\|1845]].

	The poem is now chiefly remembered for the famous final line. (It is often referred to as a "sonnet," but the poem is well over 350 lines long, in rhymed couplets.

			The poem is now chiefly remembered for the famous final line which quotes the phrase "half as old as time" from Samuel Rogers.<sup>[4]</sup> (This fourteen-line excerpt is often referred to as a "sonnet," but the poem is well over 350 lines long, in rhymed couplets.

There was also an 1885 book containing the poem.)

In [[1863 AD\|1863]] he was made vicar of the [[University Church of St Mary the Virgin]], having attracted attention by his vehement sermons against ''[[Essays and Reviews]]'', a series of messages on biblical inspiration in which he defended against the findings of [[textual criticism]] and [[higher criticism]] the historicity and Mosaic authorship of [[Book of Genesis\|Genesis]], and [[Biblical inerrancy]] in general: "Either, with the best and wisest of all ages, you must believe the whole of Holy Scripture; or, with the narrow-minded infidel, you must disbelieve the whole.
