He was installed as a canon of Canterbury in 1673 (stall XI). He was also Rector of All Hallows', Bread St, London, 1681–1723.

This book was presumably given to the Library by Thomas Blomer following his resignation of his canonry in 1706, the gift probably made through his son Ralph who succeeded him in the canonry.
