Had she been found she probably would have been burned, but it was so worth it

She was found, and wasn’t burned

How do you think we know about it if she wasn't found?

She wasn’t burned, likely because she confessed and recanted; except for than the big names like Archbishop Cranmer, the Marian regime largely only burned people who wouldn’t recant their heresies

You realise England was protestant at this time? Or did not read the article.
Guessing both
Edit: u/lebiro with the real facts. My bad.

This was in the reign of the Catholic Queen Mary - her marriage to the Catholic King Philip of Spain was the thing thatwas agitating Croft and her friends. I don't think Mary had actually burned any Protestants yet at the time of this incident (and Croft certainly wasn't burned), but she certainly did so during her reign.
