Then were the Officers of the Inquisition sent for by the Captain, which came the second day after our coming there [i.e., to Palma]: and at their coming, they offered me the Pax, which I refused to touch.
Whereupon they reviled me, and called me "Lutheran!"
[And] taking me presently out of the galley, carried me on shore in Majorca: and finding the Inquisitor walking in the market place, [they] presented me to him, saying, "Here is the prisoner!"
He immediately commanded me to prison; whither they carried me, and put a pair of shackles on my heels. Where I remained two days.

He asked me, Why I would not?
