Andrew Marvell was a native of Kingston-
upon-Hull,* where he was bom November 15,
1620. His father, of the same name, was master
of the grammar school, and lecturer of Trinity
Church in that town. He is described by Fuller
and Echard as ^^ facetious,'* so that his son's wit,
it would appear, was hereditary. He is also said
to have displayed considerable eloquence in the
pulpit; and even to have excelled in that kind
of oratory which would seem at first sight least
allied to a mirthful temperament — ^we mean the
pathetic. The conjunction, however, of wit and
sensibility, has been found in a far greater num-
ber of instances than would at first sight be
imagined, as we might easily prove by examples,
if this were the place for it : nor would it be
difficult to give the rationale of the fact. Both, at
all events, are amongst the most general, though
far from universal accompaniments of genius.
* So all the biographers; but a writer in "Notes and
Queries/' says that he was bom at Winstead in Holdemess,
where his baptismal register is still extant.

The diligence of Mr. MarvelFs pulpit prepara-
tions has been celebrated by Fuller in his " Wor-
thies," with characteristic quaintness. " He was
a most excellent preacher/' says he, " who never
broached what he had new brewed, but preached
what he had pre-studied some competent time
before, insomuch that he was wont to say, that he
would cross the common proverb, which called
Saturday the working day and Monday the holi-
day of preachers. " The lessons of the pulpit he
enforced by the persuasive eloquence of a devoted
life. During the pestilential epidemic of 1637,
we are told that he distinguished himself by an
intrepid discharge of his pastoral functions.
Having given early indications of superior
talents, young Andrew was sent, wl^en not quite
fifteen years of age, to Trinity College, Cam-
bridge, where he was partly or wholly maintained
by an exhibition from his native town.
