Contributing Institution: Southern Methodist University Bridwell Library and Ohio State University Libraries Description: The burning of three "godly saints," including Julins Palmer, I. Gwin, and Thomas Askine. The three men stand tied together and are fully clothed. The martyr to the farthest right has his arms outstretched while the other two have their arms pulled close to their bodies and their hands clasped in prayer. The three martyrs are surrounded by large flames and large clouds of black smoke hover above their heads. The men are surrounded by a group of soldiers, several of whom attend to the fire and faggots. In earlier editions, this martyrdom is illustrated by Luborsky and Ingram 11223/37. This engraving, however, appears as a new design. JPEG file (521 KB). -

A richly dressed man in a fur-lined coat sits atop a horse and appears to be supervising the burning. Revised design of Luborsky and Ingram 11222/24 and 11223/60, which appear in all four early English editions (1563, 1570, 1576, 1583); in the woodcut illustrations, Saunders is facing the right of the image and, in the OSU Libraries’ copy, the banderole from his mouth says: “"o lord resi[e]ve my soule [O lord receive my soul]."
