EPITAPHIUM.

Non nostra impietas aut actæ crimina vitæ

Armarunt hostes in mea fata truces.

Sola fides Christi sacris signata libellis,

Quæ vitæ causa est, est mihi causa necis.

After this, by the just judgement of God, in the same place where Walter

Mille was burnt, the Images of the great Church of the Abbey, which

passed both in number and costlynes, were burnt in tyme of reformation.

_Ex fideli testimonio è Scotia misso._

And thus much concerning such matters as happened, and such Martyrs as

suffered in the Realme of Scotland for the faith of Christ Jesus, and

testimony of his truth."

The Epitaph, quoted in the above extracts from Foxe, was written by

Patrick Adamson, who became Archbishop of St. Andrews.
