Adam Wallace, a Scotchman, burnt 1549. as an Heretic. He passed over the night of his condemnation in singing and lauding God, having learned David's Psalter by heart to his great consolation; and being tempted by several to recant, he (though a poor mean learned Man) said, He would adhere to whatsoever could be proved by Scripture, ⟨p. 201⟩but he would consent to nothing that had not Scripture evidence, though an Angel from Heaven came to persuade him. And on the day of his sufferings he asked, whether the fire was fit, saying, As it pleaseth God I am ready soon or late; and so desired the Faithful to remember him to all the Brethren, being sure to meet together with them in Heaven. As he went to the fire, the People said, God have mercy on you; And on you too, said he. At the fire he lifting up his eyes two or three times, said to the People, Let it not offend you that I suffer for the truth's sake; for the Disciple is not greater than his Master. But he was not permitted to speak, and so was burned. Vol. 2. p. 623.
