Early life
Taylor was born in Cambridge, the son of a barber, Nathaniel. He was baptized on August 1513. His father was educated and taught him grammar and mathematics.

The greatest sign of his diligence as a student is the sheer learning of which he demonstrated so simple a command in later years. He took holy orders and accepted Thomas Risden, a former fellow student, to serve as a lecturer at St Paul's Cathedral for a short period of time in 1633, although still below canonical age.
Career under Laud
In his presence at Lambeth, Archbishop William Laud sent Taylor to preach, and the young man was taken under his wing. Taylor did not leave Cambridge before 1636, but Laud decided that his considerable talents should have greater opportunities for study and advancement than permanent preaching would allow.

This suspicion appears to have arisen mainly from his friendship with Christopher Davenport, better known as Francis a Sancta Clara, a learned Franciscan friar who became chaplain to Queen Henrietta, but it may have been heightened by his well-known link with Laud as well as his ascetic habits. His devotion of the Royalist cause has had more ramifications. The author of The Sacred Order and Episcopacy Asserted against the Arians and Acephali New and Old (1642), however, could not expect to maintain his parish, which was not sequestrated until 1644. Taylor is said to have accompanied the king to Oxford. Charles I. defame delivered him in 1643 to the rectory of Overstone, Northamptonshire.
