In the year 1538, the brethren Martin of Vilgraten,
and Caspar Schumacher, were both apprehended
for the divine truth, at Michelsberg, in
Priesterthal, and, after great steadfastness, sentenced
to death, and executed with the sword; thus
manfully persevering in the faith unto the end.
They were of good cheer in their bonds and tribulation,
and held fast to the love of God, from which
they could not be separated through tribulation,
fear, persecution, hunger, poverty, nakedness, or
danger. No sword was so keen, no fire so hot, no
devil so wicked, no man so diligent, as to turn them
from God and his truth, and from their Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ; but they, through the grace
and power of God, kept that which God had given
them to know, even unto death.
