an English martyr, a weaver of Coventry, was cast into a filthy prison, where he remained two years. He was to be put to death by burning, for his faith in the Christian religion, but died in prison two days before the time fixed for his execution, and was buried in the fields, in a dunghill, in 1556. See Fox, Acts and Monuments, viii, 163.
