Excerpt from John Robinson: The Pilgrim Pastor 1604, till the day on which he bade farewell to the emigrants about to sail on the Speedwell for their long voyage to the new world, his was the most potent influence in the spiritual education of the Pilgrim Church. A man of ripe scholarship, a grad uate himself of the University of Cambridge, and a respected, if humble, member of the community of scholars gathered about the University at Leyden, he was well equipped to be the intellectual leader of the company of which he was pastor. But his moulding influence upon them was even more that of the temper and the spirit than of the intellect, for the personal qualities of Robinson became through his example and teaching largely those of the Pil grim congregation itself. To have been under his ministry was, to such men as Bradford, a training in firmness of purpose, in single-minded devotion to truth, and, above all, in kindliness of feeling. In this way he helped to make the story of the beginnings at Plymouth one in which all lovers of New England delight.
