Thomas Bil•ey of the University of Cambridge, a man of excellent constancy. Cambridge taking root in him, after long barrenness did begin to flourish. He converted many of his fellows to the Gospel: amongst whom was Thomas Arthur, and Master Hugh Latimer, who was Cross-keeper of Cambridge, bringing it on procession days: at last he forsook the University, and went to divers places preaching, associated with Arthur: the authority of Cardinal Woolsey was then great, but his pride •reater, which declared the vanity of his life, and of the lives of the Bishops and Clergy. Bilney with others, marvelling at the incredible insolency of the Clergy, which they could no longer suffer, they began to preach against this dignity, and against the Pope.

Thomas Bil•ey of the Uniuer•itie of Cambridge, a man of excellent constancy. Cambridge taking roote in him, after long barrennes did begin to flourish. He conuerted many of his fellowes to the Gospell: amongst whom was Thomas Arthur, and Maister Hugh Latimer, who was Crosse-kéeper of Cambridge, bringing it on procession daies: at last he forsooke the Uniuersitie, and went to diuers places preaching, associated with Arthur: the authoritie of Cardinall Woolsey was then great, but his pride •reater, which declared the vanity of his life, and of the liues of the Bishops and Clergy. Bilney with others, maruelling at the incredible insolency of the Clergy, which they could no longer suffer, they began to preach against this dignity, and against the Pope.

Then the Cardinal which did not greatly fear any power of Kings, but only feared the Gospel of Christ to be preached, least it should detect their Hypocrisy and deceits. Whereupon he caused the said Bilney and Arthur to be cast into prison, then they were brought before the Cardinal and • number of Bishops into the Charter-house of Westminster: then the Cardinal required of them, wherefore they had taught the people the opinions of Luther, which are condemned, and whether he had not once made an oath, not to preach or defend any of Luther's opinions, but to impugn the same. He said, He had made such an Oath, but not lawfully: After he was sworn to make true answer, and not to reveal his examinations.
