Thomas Spurdance, one of Queen Mary's Servants, being apprehended for the Gospel, and examined at Norwich by the Bishop, who bad him submit to the Queen's Laws, he said; You must know, My Lord, that I have a Soul as well as a Body; my Soul is none of the Queen's, but my Body and Goods are the Queen's: And I must give God my Soul, and all that belongs to it. That is, I must do the Laws and Commandments of God, and may not do Commandments contrary to them for losing of my Soul, but must rather obey God than Man; if I save my life I shall lose it, and if for Christ's sake I lose it, I shall find it in Everlasting Life: And was burned at Bury in November 1557. Vol. 3. pag. 855.
