The Martyrdom of Bishops Latimer and Ridley

16 October 2005 marked the 450th anniversary of the martyrdom of Bishop Hugh Latimer and Bishop Nicholas Ridley. It was Latimer who, as the faggots were lit, famously said “Be of good comfort Master Ridley, and play the man. We shall this day light such a candle by God’s grace in England as I trust shall never be put out!”.
