On the loth of See also:August 166o he was chosen public orator of the university, and in 1661 domestic See also:chaplain to See also:Lord See also:Clarendon. In See also:March 1663 he was made See also:prebendary of Westminster, and shortly afterwards he received from his university the degree of D.D. In 1667 he became chaplain to the See also:duke of See also:York. He was a zealous See also:advocate of the See also:doctrine of passive obedience, and strongly opposed the See also:Toleration See also:Act, declaiming in unmeasured terms against the various See also:Nonconformist sects.

In 1678 he was presented to the rectory of See also:Islip, See also:Oxfordshire. Owing, it is said, to a See also:personal grudge, South in 1693 published with transparent anonymity Animadversions on Dr See also:Sherlock's' See also:Book, entitled a Vindication of the See also:Holy and Ever Blessed Trinity, in which the views of See also:- WILLIAM

William Sherlock (q.v.) were attacked with much sarcastic bitterness. Sherlock, in See also:answer, published a See also:Defence in 1694, to which South replied in Tritheism Charged upon Dr Sherlock's New Notion of the Trinity, and the See also:Charge Made See also:Good. The controversy was carried by the See also:rival parties into the See also:pulpit, and occasioned such keen feeling that the king interposed to stop it. During the greater See also:part of the reign of See also:Anne South remained comparatively quiet, but in 1710 he ranked himself among the partisans of See also:Sacheverell. He declined the see of Rochester and the deanery of Westminster in 1713. He died on the 8th of See also:July 1716, and was buried in Westminster See also:Abbey.
South had a vigorous See also:style and his sermons were marked by homely and humorous See also:appeal. His wit generally inclines towards See also:sarcasm, and it was probably the knowledge of his quarrelsome temperament that prevented his promotion to a bishopric. He was noted for the extent of his charities. He published a large number of single sermons, and they appeared in a collected See also:form In 1692 in six volumes, reaching a second edition in his lifetime in 1715. There have been several later issues; one in two volumes, with a memoir (See also:Bohn, 1845). His See also:Opera posthuma See also:latina, including his will, his Latin poems, and his orations while public orator, with See also:memoirs of his See also:life, appeared in 1717. An edition of his works in 7 vols. was published at Oxford in 1823, another in 5 vols. in 1842. See also W. C. See also:Lake, Classic Preachers of the English Church (1st See also:series, 1877). The contemporary See also:notice of South by See also:Anthony See also:Wood in his Athenae is strongly hostile, said to be due to a jest made by South at Wood's expense.
