After he had continued a while in Germany, as in Saxony, where he had conference with Luther and other learned men, he came down into the Low countries, and had his most abiding in the town of Antwerp, until the time of his apprehension: which was about one whole year; in the house of Thomas Poynes an Englishman, who kept an house of English merchants. About which time came thither one out of England, whose name was Henry Phillips, his Father being customer of Poole. This Phillips grew into acquaintance with Tyndale, and pretended much favour unto him. After this, Phillips goeth from Antwerp to the court of Brussels: which is from thence xxiiij. English miles (the King having then no Ambassador there), and ⟨p. 34⟩procured to bring from thence with him to Antwerp, that procurator general, which is the Emperors attorney, with other certain officers. Within a while after (Poynes siting at his door) Phillips man came unto him, and asked whether M. Tyndale were there, and said his master would come to him, and so departed: Poines within iij. or iiij. days being departed out of the town to Barrow xviij. miles from Antwerp, Phillips cometh again to Poines wife, & asketh for M. Tyndale, and what good cheer there was in the house, & whether he would dine with him: that done, he goeth out to provide and set the officers which he had brought from Brussels in the street, and about the door. Then about noon he came again, & went to M. Tyndale, and said, he had lost his purse; and prayed him to lend him xl. s̄, which M. Tyndale did. Then said Phillips to M. Tyndale, you shall be my guest here this day. No said M. Tyndale; I go forth this day: you shall go with me and be my guest, where you shall be welcome. So when it was dinner time, M. Tyndale went out with Phillips, and at the going forth of Poines house, Master Tyndale would have put Phillips before him, but Phillips would in no wise, pretending a show of great humanity: so M. Tyndale went before him. He had set officers on either side the door upon seats, to whom Phillips pointed, with his finger over M. Tindals head that the officers might see it was he, & so should apprehend him. Who there took him, & brought him to the Emperors attorney, the procuror general; where he dined:
