So he was had away, and anon after he was called for to come before him, & the Bishop of Bangor. Who being before them, they cavilled with him, where his religion was an hundred year ago, accusing him of singularity &c. and so dismissed him till after noon. At which time he appeared again, and after reasoning with him touching the real presence: they again dismissed him till Thursday after, which was the 13. examination. On which day he appeared before the Archb. of York, and other Bishops, as the bishop of Chichester, Bathe, London, &c & they reasoned with him touching the true Church, and the authority thereof, and universality.
