His learning, with a knowledge of Greek and Hebrew, attracted the attention of Sir Walter Raleigh, who received assistance from Burhill in the composition of his ''History of the World''.〔Stephen Coote, ''A Play of Passion: The Life of Sir Walter Ralegh'' (1993), p. 342, who calls him Robert Burnhill and identifies him as Raleigh's chaplain.〕 He died at Northwold in October 1641, and was buried in the chancel of the church there. A monument was erected to his memory by Samuel Knight, archdeacon of Berkshire, about 1740.
