St Edmund Campion 1581
I am a Catholic man and a priest;
in that Faith I have lived,
and in that Faith do I intend to die.
If you esteem my Religion treason,
then I am guilty;
as for the other treason,
I never committed any.
God is my judge.
– Saint Edmund Campion
Response delivered at his execution to charges of treason, 1581.
