Excerpt from The English Martyrology, Vol. 2 of 2: Abridged From Fox

Man is a polluted being: his best righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and whatever degree of relative and comparative holiness he may exhibit among his fellow men, not one of our race ever did or ever can take his stand before the throne of God, until washed in the blood of the Lamb from innumerable sins and defilements. It is especially needful to bear this truth in mind, when dwelling on the Acts and Monuments of our blessed martyrs. God, for his own glory and praise, endued many of them with such singular gifts and grace, that we are in danger of overlooking what they never forgot; and while they, in the act of giving their tortured bodies to the burning flames for their Lord's sake, uttered their last breath in supplications for mercy, abhorring the very idea of merit, and knowing that the reward was reckoned unto them not of debt but of grace, we, looking only on that which God effectually wrought in them, are in peril of forgetting that all the praise must be to the glory of his grace.

We now, thus guarded, enter upon the story of one of these vessels of mercy, in whose life and death the Lord was pleased alike to magnify himself. Dr. Nicholas Ridley was a native of Northumberland, born of an ancient and honourable family, and distinguished from childhood by great aptness and dexterity in learning. Being early sent to Cambridge, he soon became famous for his proficiency in all knowledge, and was rapidly promoted to the higher functions of the university, obtaining the degree of doctor in divinity, and the headship of Pembroke Hall.
