PLATE XXI. THE MARTYRS’ MONUMENT

Oxford has at length, after the lapse of three centuries, raised a worthy

monument to her martyred bishops, who died for the Protestant cause in

Queen Mary’s reign.

And we have endeavoured in this plate to represent it worthily. How far

we have succeeded must be left to the judgment of the gentle Reader.

The statue seen in the picture is that of Bishop Latimer.
