aynton: _Letters_, p. 329. [568] _Letters_, p. 323. [569] He thought of going abroad. "I have trust that God will help me," he wrote to a friend; "if I had not, I think the ocean sea should have divided my Lord of London and me by this day."--_Remains_, p. 334. [570] Latimer to Sir Edward Baynton. [571] See Latimer's two letters to Sir Edward Baynton: _Remains_, pp. 322-351. [572] "As ye say, the matter is weighty, and ought substantially to be looked upon, even as weighty as my life is worth; but how to look substantially upon it otherwise know not I, than to pray my Lord God, day and night, that, as he hath emboldened me to preach his truth, so he will strengthen me to suffer for it. "I pray you pardon me that I write no more distinctly, for my head is [so] out of frame, that it would be too painful for me to write it again. If I be not prevented shortly, I intend to make merry with my parishioners, this Christmas, for all the sorrow, _lest perchance I never return to them again_; and I have heard say that a doe is as good in winter as a buck in summer."--Latimer to Sir Edward Baynton, p. 334. [573] LATIMER'S _Remains_, p. 334. [574] Ibid. p. 350. [575] "I pray you, in God's name, what did you, so great fathers, so many, so long season, so oft assembled together? What went you about? What would ye have brought to pass? Two things taken away--the one that ye (which I heard) burned a dead man,--the other, that ye (which I felt) went about to burn one being alive. Take away these two noble acts, and there is nothing else left that ye went about that I know," etc., etc.--Sermon preached before the Convocation: LATIMER'S _Sermons_, p. 46. [576] "My affair had some bounds assigned to it by him who sent for me up, but is now protracted by intricate and wily examinations, as if it would never find a period; while sometimes one person, sometimes another, ask me questions, without limit and without end."--Latimer to the Archbishop of Canterbury: _Remains_, p. 352. [577] _Remains_, p. 222. [578] _Sermons_, p. 294. [579] The process lasted through January, February, and March. [580] _Sermons_, p. 294. [581] He subscribed all except two--one apparently on the power of the pope, the other I am unable to conjecture. Compare the Articles themselves--printed in LATIMER'S _Remains_, p. 466--with the Sermon before the Convocation.--_Sermons_, p. 46; and BURNET, vol. iii. p. 116. [582] Nicholas Glossop
