AFTER his answers were penned by the notaries, and the bishop of Lincoln had exhorted him in like manner to recant as he did Dr. Ridley, and revoke his errors and false assertions, and Mr. Latimer had answered that he neither would nor could deny his master Christ and his verity, the bishop of Lincoln desired Mr. Latimer to hearken to him: and then Mr. Latimer hearkening for some new matter and other talk, the bishop of Lincoln read his condemnation, after which the said three bishops brake up their sessions, and dismissed the audience.
BUT Mr. Latimer required the bishop to perform his promise, in saying the day before that he should have license briefly to declare the cause why he refused the pope's authority.
BUT the bishop of Lincoln said, that now he could not hear him, neither ought to talk with him.
THEN Mr. Latimer asked him, whether it were not lawful for him to appeal from his judgment. And the bishop asked him again, to whom he would appeal. To the next general council, said Mr. Latimer, which shall be truly called in God's name. With that appellation the bishop was content: but he said it would be a long season before such convocation as he meant would be called.
