Master Doctor•dost thou not know that I am legatus de latere, and that I am able to dispense with all matter in this Realm as much as the pope may: He answered, I know it: Then he bad him be ruled by him and I will do all things for thy honesty, and the honesty of the university: he thanked him, and said, he would stick to the Scriptures according to his little Talent: Then the Cardinal told him he should have his learning tried, and have the Law, and commanded him to the Tower: But Gardiner and Fox, became his sureties: After he was twice brought before the Bishops, and the Abbot of Westminster, in the Chapter-house at Westminster: Then he was put to have the Counsel of Gardiner, and Fox, and they persuaded him rather to abjure the• burn, & that he might do more in time to come, and with other persuasions, mighty in the sight of reason and foolish flesh: whereupon he abjured, and bore a faggot: the Bishop of Rochester preaching at the abjuration of him and others, stood up and declared unto the people, how many days of forgiveness of sins they had for being at that Sermon; yet he continued half a year after in prison, and then he was committed to be free prisoner in the Augustine Friars in London: when these Caterpillars and bloody beasts had undermined him, they complained on him again to my Lord Cardinal: Then he was delivered to the Friars of Northampton to be burned: Then Master Horne heard that a writ should come shortly to burn him; then he counselled him to feign himself desperate, and writ a Letter to the Cardinal, signifying that he would drown himself, and to leave his clothes there, and another Letter to the Mayor of the Town to search for him in the water, because he had a Letter written in parchment, wrapped in wax about his neck, for the Cardinal which would teach all men to beware of him: upon this they were seven days a searching for him, but he went to London in a poor mans apparel, and thence to Antwerp to Luther, and there answered all the Bishops of the Realm, and made a Book called acta Romanorum pontificum, and another Book with a supplication to King Henry: When it was told the Cardinal he was drowned he said, perit memoria eius cum sonitu, but this lighted upon himself, for shortly after he poison-himself.
