to the
glory of god
and in grateful commemoration
of his servants,
thomas
cranmer,
nicholas ridley,
hugh lattimer,
prelates of the church
of england
who, near this spot,
yielded their bodies
to be burned
bearing witness
to the sacred truths
which they had
affirmed and maintained
against the errors
of the church of rome
and rejoicing that
to them it was given
not only to believe in christ
but also to suffer for his sake.
this monument was erected
by public subscription
in the year of our lord god
MDCCCXLI |
