All the Presidents and others that were in this conspiracy, assembled in the Parish of the new Church, in the Counsellors house. They assembled above 500. men of the Country, the husband-men would have gone back again when they kn•w the matter, but the Presidents compelled them to stay, and to encourage them gave them three barrels of Hamburg bear: at midnight they came in armour, the Monks prepared them torches, they burst into the Parish Priests house, they took away all things, they fell upon the Parish Priest, crying, kill the thief; they pulled him by the hair of the head out into the dirt; then they run upon Henry, drew him naked out of his bed, bound his hands hard behind him, and drew him to and fro so unmercifully, that a cruel Persecutor of the word cried, let him alone. When they had led him almost all night barefooted upon the Ice, he desired a horse, because •e was weary, and his feet sore cut, they laughed and mocked, saying; must we hire an Horse for an Heretic.

When they brought him to the fire to be burned, a woman offered her self to suffer 1000. stripes, and to give them much money, so they would keep him in prison until he might plead his matter before the whole Convocation of the Country: then they were more mad, threw down the woman, trod her under feet, and beat Henry unmercifully; one struck him behind the head with a Dagger, another struck him with a Mace, othersome thrust him in the back and reins, as often as he began to to speak: The Chancellor cried, go to boldly, good Fellows, truly God is present with us. A Franciscan Fryer came to confess him, to whom Henry said; What injury did I ever do you Brother? The Fryer said; never none, then he said, What should I confess unto you, that you can forgive me? when the fire still was kindled, it would not burn, yet they satisfied their minds on him, striking and pricking him with all kind of weapons: then they gat a lather and bound him to it, and cast him into the fire. When he began to pray, and repeat his Creed, one struck him with his Fist, saying; Thou shalt first be burned, after prate while thou wilt: another trod on his breast, and bound his neck so hard to the Ladder, that the blood gushed out of his mouth, and the Ladder being propped up with a Halberd, and slipping aside, the Halberd run through him: then one struck him with a Mace on the breast until he was dead, then they consumed the body in the fire.
