often disputed with neighboring abbots and other Ro- , under such information, the autli^)rities at Brussels
mish ecclesiastics. Here, too, he translated the Enchi- ridion Militis of Erasmus, as a present to his host and liis lady. His free opinions and discussions soon got him into troublous examinations before the popisii dig- nitaries, but no penalty was inflicted on him. He took the hint, however, left the county, and went to London, liis mind being now fully occupied with the idea of translating the Scriptures. He soon found, as he him- self quaintly says, " that there was no room in my lord of London's palace to translate the New Test. ; nay, no place to do it in all England." In London he some- times preached at St. Dunstan's-in-the- West, while alderman Humphrey Monmouth took him under his protection, and gave him an annuity of ten pounds a year to enable him to live abroad, for which ten pounds
seized him, in the house of Poiiitz, his friend, and con- veyed him to Vilvoorden, twenty-three miles from Ant- werp. Pointz, who had with ditficultj' escaped himself, made every effort for hlni, but in vain. The iieiglibor- ing University of Louvain tliirsted for his blood. Tyn- dale was speedily condemned, and on Friday, Oct. 6, 1536, in virtue of a recent Augsburg decree, he was led out to the scene of execution. On being fastened to the stake, he cried, in loud and earnest prayer, " Lord, open the eyes of the king of England," and then was first strangled and afterwards burned. The merits of Tyndale must ever be recognised and honored by all wlio enjoy the English Bible — for their authorized ver- sion of the New Test, has his for its basis. He made good his early boast that ploughboys should have the

Type. I. Name. — The Greek word tvttoq, from which our type is derived, denotes primarily a blotn, then the mark left by a blow, then a mark or pr-int of any kind, then a figure or image, and finally a mould or model, whether that be viewed as the original from which something else has taken its form, or as indicat- ing the form which something not yet existing may assume. In the New Test, the word occurs in several of these senses, and in some passages with a shade of meaning peculiar to itself. In John xv, 25 it is used to denote the mark which the nails made in our Lord's hands and feet ; in Acts vii, 43 it means a copy or image; in ver. 44 and Heb. viii, 5 it signifies a model after which something is made; in Rom. vi, 17 it de- notes a mould from which a form is derived; in ver. 14 it conveys the idea »f one person presenting some anal- ogy to another person ; and in several places it means an example which others may follow (1 Cor. x, 6, 11; Phil, iii, 17 ; 1 Thess. i, 7 ; 2 Thess. iii, 9, etc.).
