Reading edition
“By bearing a confident countenance in all his actions the vulgars took him (Ket) to be both valiant and wise and a fit man to be their commander.”—Sir John Hayward, Life of Edward VI.
“This Ket was a proper person to be a ringleader of mischief, for he was of a bold, haughty spirit, and of a cankered mind against the Government.”—John Strype, Ecclesiastical Memorials.
