Description
  • Six martyrs--W. Waterer, Steph. Kemp, W. Haye, T. Hudson, W. Lowick, and W. Prowting-- are burned at the stake. All six men are full clothed and are grouped in pairs at each stake. The men are surrounded by a group of soldiers, several of whom are on horseback. Several other soldiers tend the fire. Revised version of Luborsky and Ingram 11223/75 but different from the version used for "The burning of Christopher Lyster, John Mace, John Spencer, Symon Joyne, Richard Nichols, and John Hamond," and "M. Coker, W. Hopper, Hen. Laurence, Rich Colliar, Rich. Wright, and Wil. Stere." The earlier woodcut version of this engraving appears only in the second early English edition (1570) and is used five times to illustrate the martyrdom of five separate groups of martyrs.
