Anno 1551. Galeazius Trecius, 1a Gentleman of good calling, was burned at Laus Pompeia in Italy. A little before he should be burned, there was a controversy betwixt the mayor of the city, and the Bishops Clergy, for the expenses of wood which should go to his burning. He hearing thereof, sent word to both parties to agree, for he himself of his own goods, would see the cost of that matter discharged. But at the suite of his friends, and by persuasions, (after three several examinations, and testimonies given to the trueth) he relented. Whereupon, he fell into such grief of mind, that he could not be quiet, till he had occasion offered to recover himself: which afterward he did, denying to the Judges again that which before he had yielded ⟨p. 468⟩unto them. This Galleazius was first instructed in the truth by an Augustine Friar, named Maniardus, and afterwards more throughly confirmed by Celius Secundus, Ex Celio.
