Galeasius Trecius, an Italian, burned at Aus Pompeia in Italy 1551. for professing the Gospel. He having professed it a while, and then by the persuasion of Friends denying it, felt great sorrow, and, as he declared, never greater in all his life; but recovering by the grace of God, he longed for a time to evidence his return by confession of his Faith again, affirming he never felt more joy of heart than when by Papists examined, nor more sorrow than when he recanted, declaring that death was much more sweet to him, with the testimony of the truth, than life with the least denial of the truth and loss of a good conscience: And being imprisoned, he could not be prevailed with to recant, but confirmed his first Faith, and burned. Vol. 2. p. 167, 168.
