One ofthese zealots was Andrew Melville, a Scot, who afterward returned to his native land, and became a disciple of the stern Calvinist, John Knox. With his staff in his hand, and for baggage a Hebrew Bible slung over one shoulder, he trudged over Europe. His biographer quotes from a quaint chronicle, which relates how he and a friend eventually reached Geneva, footsore and almost penniless. The guards at the gates evidently thought that little good could come of admitting:men who had nothing to give and everything to . subject, but he in no wise lost his loyalty to his native country.
