Three days long lasted the Inquisition. There after this it was advised, that the University should themselves first decree against Bucer and Phagius, and after make Supplication to the Commissioners, for the confirming of this decree. So the University authorised their Vicechancellour, to be the common factor for the University. Which Supplication being put up to the Commissioners the xiij. day, was of them granted: and afterward confirmed by the whole consent of the University, and signed with the common seal the fourteenth day, by the Vice-Chancellor ⟨p. 225⟩by Doctor Yong Doctor Harvey, Swineborne, Marpetide, &c. After they had all dined together at master Bacon's, master of Gonwell hall: by and by they carried it to the Commissioners to their Lodging. Their condemnation being openly read, then was it desired to send out process to cite Bucer and Phagius to appear, or any other that would take upon them to plead their cause against the next mum day. So the next day process went out to cite the offenders.
