Thomas Tomkins, burnt March 16. 1555. a London Waver, to whom Bishop Bonner used cruelty; and at his own Palace hall at Fulham, to terrify the poor Man, burnt his hand with a Taper till the veins and sinews broke, and the water spirted in the faces of the standers by, who being moved with pity, requested the Bishop to stay, saying he had tried him enough: But the Bishop stayed not till he had effected his burning in Smithfield. This Tomkins never shrank at the burning his hand, but said he was wrapped in Spirit, so that he felt no pain. Vol. 3. p. 187, 188, 190.
