In this year, Henry the fifth sent a most cruel Commission unto John Exeter, ¹and Jacolet German, keeper of the Castle of Colchester, for the apprehending of sir William White Priest, and Thomas Chaplin of Settling in Norfolk; and William Northampton Priest, and all other suspected of Lollardy, and to commit them to prison, by virtue of which Commi••ion, six persons were attached in Bu•gay of Norwich, whose names were so defaced through antiquity, that there remained but three names in the worn book to be red, to wit, John Teaderton in Kent, Bartholomew Monk of Ensham in Norfolk, Corneleader▪ a ma•ie• man; these three were in the custody of the Duke of Norfolk, in the Castle of Fremingham. We find also in the Diocese of Norfolk, and Suffolk, specially in the towns of Bechels, Ersham, and Ludney within the space of three or four years, 120. men and women, which sustained great vexation for the profession of Christs Faith, whose names are recited in the book at large; the Articles that were generally objected against them, were; That auricular confession is not to be made unto a Priest, but unto God, because no Priest hath no power to absolve a sinner. That no Priest can make the body of Christ in the Sacrament, and that material bread remaineth after consecration. That every true Christian man is a Priest to God. That none is bound, under pain of damnation, to Lent, or other days prohibited. That the Pope is Antichrist, and his Prelates Antichrists disciples; and that the Pope hath no power to bind and lose on earth; and that it is lawful to do any work, except sin, upon the holy days. That Priests may have wives lawfully. That the Communications of the Prelates are not to be regarded. That it is not lawful to swear in private causes. That men ought no go on Pilgrimage, nor give honour unto Images of the Cross, of our Lady, or other Saints. That holy water hath no more virtue then other water. That the death of Thomas Becket was neither holy nor meritorious. That relics, as dead mens bones, ought not to be worshipped, or digged out of graves, or set up in Shrines▪ That prayers made in all places are acceptable to God. That men ought not to pray to any Saints, but only to God. That bells, and ringing in the Church were ordained to fill the Priests purses. That it is no sin to withstand the Ecclesiastical precepts.
