Original wording, with book contents, page navigation, and linked notes. Source heading; not independently verified

In the year 1567 John Mang, a hatter by trade, was imprisoned at Senthoffen,291 in Suabia, for the faith and the divine truth. In his imprisonment he suffered great cold, so that he could not get his feet warm at night. Besides this, he had to assist the ungodly in many an assault and conflict. Finally, he fell asleep in the Lord, in prison, having kept his faith, and patiently persevered therein unto the end; hence he will also inherit the glorious crown of life, with all the elect of God.
