William Tindal
     n : English translator and Protestant martyr; his translation of
         the Bible into English (which later formed the basis for
         the King James Version) aroused ecclesiastical
         opposition; he left England in 1524 and was burned at the
         stake in Antwerp as a heretic (1494-1536) [syn: {Tyndale},
          {William Tyndale}, {Tindale}, {William Tindale}, {Tindal}]
