Excerpt from A Brief Discourse of the Troubles Begun at Frankfort in the Year 1554: About the Book of Common Prayer and Ceremonies
The author, in the preface, refers to a sermon preached at St. Paul's Cross, in November, 1573, by D. Yonge, and after wards to another sermon at the same place, in October, 1573, by M. Mullins. The former of these was probably Dr. John Young, Bishop of Rochester; the latter, whose name appears in the present work, was an exile during the reign of Mary, and officiated as Greek Reader at Frankfort. At a subsequent period, we find him mentioned as Archdeacon of London, Canon Residentiary of St. Paul's, and Rector of Booking.

Excerpt from A Brief Discourse of the Troubles Begun at Frankfort in the Year 1554: About the Book of Common Prayer and Ceremonies
In the Preface to the following "Brief Discourse," and in a subsequent page of the same work, its author has, in a few words, given us the reasons which induced him at that time to publish the same to the world. Though a great part of it might have been arranged a short period before the date which it bears in the title-page, the materials must have existed in a tolerably complete form, and certainly bear marks of having been written at the period to which it refers. Evidently an actor in the troubles which he describes, the author does not speak doubtingly; there is no appeal to memory; for, though he could not be a personal witness of what was simultaneously occurring at Frankfort, Geneva, and elsewhere, those who furnished him with information were such as he could rely on, and were deputed probably by him to register events as they occurred: this portion also bears the same internal marks of truth. This narrative, remarkable for its character, deeply interesting from its subject, possesses claims to our notice that cannot be disputed.
