Page "Anne Askew" Paragraph 5
from
Wikipedia
In 1545, Anne Askew was arrested and accused as a heretic.
She was examined by Anglican clerics regarding her beliefs and found to disagree with their doctrine of transubstantiation.
She often caught them in their own questions, which only enraged them more.
She was brought before Lord Bonner, who was determined to see her burned.
He was unable to draw anything from her that would incriminate her, so instead he taunted her with the insinuation that her life was not as pure as the Scripture required.
She calmly challenged him to bring forth anyone who could prove dishonesty in her.
He could not and eventually released her.
