| Evidence: | Eve Cohan is taken to church by her Christian music master to hear the organ; a New Testament is 'secretly conveyed to her' and 'she took great delight in reading in it', being 'mightily affected' with the story of the passion of Christ. She is converted and moves to England, pursued by fanatical Jews who seek her blood. |
