These Disputations ended (the Friday following, which was the xx. day of April) the Commissioners sate in Saint Mary's Church, where Doctor Weston Prolocutor, used particular dissuasions to every one of the Prisoners, and would not suffer them to answer in any wise: but directly required them to say, whether they would subscribe or no. Which when they all refused: in reading the sentence against ⟨p. 113⟩them, they were asked whether they would turn or no:1 and they bad read on in the name of God, for they were not minded to turn: so were they condemned all three. After which sentence given they all appealed to the just judgement of God, for their unjust sentence: and so were they separated the one from the other, the Archbishop to Bocardo, Ridley to the Sheriffs house, and Latimer to the bailiffs.
