The tribulation, anguish and distress of the beloved
friends and children of God continued; for
they did not cease to persecute and kill them, yea,
to put them to death in a dreadful, miserable and
lamentable manner, which, in the year 1549, appeared
also in the city of Amsterdam, in Holland,
in the case of two pious and very godfearing persons,
named Jacob Claess of Lantsmeer, and Cecilia
Jeronymus of Wormer, who, as they, after suffering
many assaults, conflicts and tribulations from secular
as well as ecclesiastical persons, who sought to
draw them away from the faith, remained constant,
were sentenced to the fire as heretics, which punishment
of death they steadfastly endured, on the 9th
of November, A. D. 1549, as appears from the following
468two sentences, which were publicly pronounced
on the day of their death, in the court of
Amsterdam; true copies of which, obtained by us
through the clerk of the court there, we shall adduce
here, for the further confirmation of said matter.
