1In the month of May, it was bruited that a disputation should be holden at Cambridge, between M. Bradford, M. Saunders, & M, Rogers, and others of that side: and the Doctors of both universities on the other side: like as had been in Oxford before. This the godly Preachers that were prisoners did accept, so that the disputation might be before the Queen, or before the Council, or before the Parliament houses, or else if they might dispute by writing: remembering the disorder at Oxford. And they directed out of prison a declaration of their minds by writing, the seventh day of May, exhorting the people to submit themselves with all patience and humility, &c. Anno 1554.
