Excerpt from Biographia Scoticana, or a Brief Historical Account of the Lives, Characters, and Memorable Transactions of the Most Eminent Scots Worthies: Noblemen, Gentlemen, Ministers, and Others, From Mr. Patrick Hamilton, Who Was Born About the Year of Our Lord 1503, and Suffered Martyrdom at St. Andrews, Feb. 1527, to Mr. James Renwick, Who Was Executed at Edinburgh, Feb. 1688 Englishman, and scholar of Wiclitl's in Scotland, who came hither about the year 14-07, and was called in question for some doctrines which he taught against the Pope's supremacy he was condemned to the titer which he endured with great constancy. About ten years after, 066 Paul Craw, a Bohemian, and follower of Huss. Was accused of heresy be fore such as were then called Doctors of Theology. The articles C charge were, that he followed Huss and vvickliff in the opinion of tb sacrament of the supper, who denied that the substance of bread anc wine were changed by virtue of any words, or that auricular confessio to priests, or praying to saints departed, were lawful. He was commit ted to the secular judge, who condemned him to the fire at St. Andrews, where he sufi'ered, being gagged uhen led to the stake, that he might not have the opportunity of making his confession. Both the abovemen tioned martyrs suffered under Henry vvardlaw, Bishop of St. Andrews, who founded that university, 14-12; which might have done him honour, bad he not imbrued his hands in innocent blood.
