The same year, Leonard Keyser, 1of the country of Bavaria, was put to death, for the testimony of the truth: he was of the town of Raw, 4. miles from Passaw, of a famous house. He being at his study in Wittenberg, was sent for by his brethren: who certified him, that if he would see his father alive, he should come with speed: he was scarce come thither, when as by the commandment of the B. of Passaw, he was taken by his mother, & brethren.2 The articles with he was accused of, were, the faith only ⟨p. 436⟩justifieth. 2. Works are the fruits of faith. 3. The mass is no sacrifice, nor oblation: also he denied confession, satisfaction, vow of single life, Purgatory, difference of days, invocation of Saints, and for holding only two Sacraments, &c. They that sate in judgement of him, were, the Bishop of Passaw, the suffragans of Ratisbone, and Passaw: and with them Eckius, being guarded with armed men. He suffered the 16. of August, Ex 6. tomo operum Lutheri.
