Franciscus Gamba, an Italian, burned at Comun 1554. being accused for an Heretic, and importuned to recant; he defended his Doctrine by manifest Scriptures, and proved his Opinions to be the true Doctrine of Christ, and rather than he would deny them he was ready to stand to the effusion of his blood: And being long and often assailed by his Friends to recant, he could not be expugned, but gave thanks to God, that he was made worthy to suffer the rebukes of the world, and civil death for the testimony of his Son; and so went cheerfully to death: And when at his death the Friars held a Cross before him, he said that his mind was so replenished with joy and comfort in Christ, that he needed not them, nor their Cross: And declaring many comfortable things to the people, he was strangled and burned. Vol. 2. p. 180.
