The xxviij. day of January, Hooper appeared again before Gardiner and the Commissioners, in the afternoon, with Master Rogers. Their examinations being ended, the two sheriffs of London were commanded to carry them to the counter in Southwark,1 there to remain till the morrow at ix. of the clock, to see whether they would relent. So M. Hooper went before with one of the sheriffs, and M. Rogers with the other: to whom M. Hooper (looking back) said, come brother R. must we two take this matter first in hand, ⟨p. 128⟩and begin to fry these faggots? Yea sir (said M. Rogers) by Gods grace. Doubt not (said M.
