The original account

ORVEL, JAN AND PLEUNIS, A. D. 1561.

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

About this time Orvel, Jan and Pleun were severally apprehended for the truth, at Cologne, and as they steadfastly confessed the truth, and could not be moved by any kind of torture or crafty seduction, but remained faithful, they were finally taken out on the Rhine, and drowned, having commended their souls into the hands of God, in the year 1561.
