James Mordon and Thomas Bernard stand tied to the stake, each with an arm around the other's shoulder and their outside arm raised. A fire burns beneath them while several men stoke the flame. A crowd of onlookers gathers around them. This image appears four times in the second early English edition (1570) to represent the martyrdoms of four separate pairs of men. In earlier editions this martyrdom is illustrated by Luborsky and Ingram 11223/12. In the present edition, the martyrdom is illustrated by a revised design of Luborsky and Ingram 11223/79, but is different from the revision of this image represented by "The burning of John Claidon and Richard Turming."
