Perowne became Dean of Peterborough, Hort was elected to succeed him in the Hulsean Professorship of Divinity. His election made little change in the character of his work.

Other subjects of his lectures as Hulsean Professor were Cyril of Jerusalem, iii. iv. v., Tatian, the Clementine Recognitions, Tertullian adv. Marcionem iv. v., the Epistle to the Romans...
