1This Robert Cousin seemeth to be the same, which in the former part of our history is forementioned, being called by the name of father Robert, and was burnt in Buckingham, pag. 749. Of this Robert Cosine, I find in the Registers of Lincoln: that he with Thomas Man had instructed and persuaded one Joan Norman, about Amersham,2 not to go on pilgrimage, nor to worship any Images of Saints. Also when she had bowed a piece of silver to a saint for the health of her child they dissuaded her from the same, and that she needed not to confess her unto a Priest, but to be sufficient to lift up her hands to heaven. Moreover they were charged by the bishop for teaching the said Joan that she might aswell drink upon the sunday before Mass:3 as any other day. &c. Ex. Regist. Joan. Longland. And thus you see the doctrine of these good men, for the which they were in those days abjured, and condemned to death.
