Old Book of the Martyrs Mirror: 1570s
Allert Janss, in the Year 1570
In the same year 1570, on the 13th of April, a pious brother named Allert Janss was also brought as a prisoner to Haarlem. After many temptations and assaults, because of his steadfastness in the divine truth, on the 6th of May, after the sentence had been pronounced, he boldly went to the stake, to be burned alive to ashes, and so offered up a sacrifice well pleasing to God, and serving as an example to all the God-fearing.
