Brad. My lord, the doctrine taught in king Edward's days was God's pure religion: which as I then believed, so do I now more believe it than ever I did, and therein I am more confirmed, and ready to declare it by God's grace even as he will, to the world, than I was when I first came into prison.
Durham. What religion mean you in king Edward's days? What year of his reign.
Brad. Forsooth, even the same year, my lord, that the king died, and I was a preacher. Here wrote secretary Bourne I know not what.
