Evidence against him was tendered by three women of disreputable character, one of whom admitted that she had been paid to collect evidence. It is not clear from their sworn testimony whether they wilfully distorted his words or mistook his meaning. Despite clear counter-evidence presented by numerous witnesses, the jury, directed by Jeffreys, found him guilty of treason for which the penalty would have been death by beheading. However, he was not sentenced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen he came for sentence on 24 November, he argued his exception to the indictment as being deficient in the English interpretation of the original Latin.
