his return to the Dutch Republic. He composed a plea to the judges of the University of Leiden in 1684, which stated that he had renounced his youthful bravado. By the late 1680s, since his appeal had gone unheard, he started working on an apologetic work titled De Fornicatione Cavenda Admonitio (Warning about fornication which should be avoided, 1697, 1698). In the treatise Beverland repudiated the lewd contents and lascivious style of his earlier works. In the end it was the sale of the library of Isaac Vossius to the University of Leiden, in which Beverland played an important role, that secured Beverland a pardon for his sentence. The University of Leiden retracted his conviction and in 1693 he received a pardon from King William III, the highest judge of the United Provinces in his position as Stadholder. Beverland never returned to the Dutch Republic however. From the 1690s onwards, mental and financial troubles started to determine his life. He lived together with his partner, Rebecca Tibbith, and their daughter Anna in different places in and just outside London. Beverland died in London on 14 December 1716 and was buried four days later, in the yard of St. Paul’s Church in Covent Garden. Published works (Utrecht, 1677).
