THese six were burned together at Colchester in Essex, where the most part of

deliuered by the Earle of Oxford and other Commissioners, vnto Iohn Kingstone
the Bishops Register: Bonner caused them to be brought vnto his house at Ful∣ham,
where, in the open Church he ministred vnto them articles, to which they an∣swered
alike, as followeth:
That the Church of Rome is the malignant Church, and no part of the Catho∣tholike
Church, and that they beleeue not the doctrine thereof, and that they be∣léeue
there be no mo but two Sacraments in the Church of Christ, to wit, Baptis∣me
and the Lords Supper; that they learned the truth of their profession by the doc∣trine
set forth in King Edwards time, and therein they would continue as long as
they liued; they refused to be partakers of the Sacrament of the Altar, because it
was vsed contrary to Gods word and glorie; they said the Popes authoritie was
vsurped, and that he was an oppressor of Christs Church and Gospell, and that he
ought not to haue any authoritie in England, and that they vtterly abhorred the
Sea of Rome, for putting downe the booke of God, and setting vp the Babylonicall
Masse, with all the rest of Antichrists merchandise; and that after consecration
there remaineth in the Sacrament Bread and Wine as well as before; and that
the reall flesh and bloud of Christ is not in it; and that the Masse is not propitia∣torie,
neither for the quick nor for the dead, but méere Idolatry and abomination.
And in the afternoone, when they would not recant, they were condemned and
burned, as before.
