Richard Atkins (1559?–1581), was an English Protestant martyr. Atkins was born at Ross in Herefordshire. Until he was nineteen years old he was a Catholic, after that a Protestant, but for how long is uncertain. About Midsummer 1581 he was at Rome armed with his New Testament. For his language towards the clergy on the ‘misorder of their lives,’ and his denunciations against the Church, he was imprisoned for a short time by the Inquisition. Upon his release he proceeded to a series of acts that finally brought him to torture and the stake.

  • Richard Atkins (¿1559? - 1581) fue un mártir protestante inglés. Atkins nació en Ross, en Herefordshire. Hasta los diecinueve años fue católico, y después de eso protestante, pero no se sabe por cuánto tiempo. Por el verano de 1581 estaba en Roma armado con su nuevo testamento. Por su lenguaje hacia ellos sobre el "desorden de sus vidas" y sus denuncias contra la iglesia, fue encarcelado durante un corto tiempo por la Inquisición . Tras su liberación, procedió a una serie de actos que finalmente lo llevaron a la tortura y la estaca. Se le acusó de exclamar en contra del cristianismo (occidental) en su forma actual y, en particular, del papa en los lugares públicos de recreo, y de un acto de sacrilegio al intentar arrojar el sacramento mientras era llevado por el sacerdote por las calles. Se afirmó que unos días más tarde, había ido a la Basílica de San Pedro una vez más, mientras diversos personajes escuchaban la misa, se acercó al altar 'y arrojó el cáliz con el vino', y se esforzó por deshacerse de él antes de la consagración. Llevado nuevamente a la cárcel y examinado, respondió "que vino a propósito para reprender la maldad del papa y su idolatría". Después de muchas exhortaciones de sus compatriotas a retractarse, en vano, fue llevado a la hoguera con muchas torturas y quemado frente a San Pedro el 2 de agosto de 1581. (es)

For his language towards the clergy on the ‘misorder of their lives,’ and his denunciations against the Church, he was imprisoned for a short time by the Inquisition. Upon his release he proceeded to a series of acts that finally brought him to torture and the stake. He was charged with exclaiming against (western) Christianity as it then stood and in particular against the Pope in public places of resort, and with an act of sacrilege in attempting to throw down the sacrament while being carried through the streets by a priest. It was stated that a few days later, he had gone to St Peter's Basilica once again, while diverse gentlemen and others were hearing mass, he stepped forward to the altar ‘and threw down the chalice with the wine,’ and strove to pull the host out of the priest's hand before its consecration. Being committed to prison a second time and examined, his reply was ‘that he came purposely to rebuke the popes' wickedness and their idolatry.’ After many exhortations by his countrymen to recant, but in vain, he was brought to the stake with many tortures and burned before St. Peter's, 2 August 1581.
