Henric (Hendrick) Dirksz, an Anabaptist martyr, was apprehended in Leiden, Dutch province of South Holland, in 1552 together with Dirck Jansz and Adriaen Cornelisz and executed on 24 November 1552. When the sentence was pronounced he stepped forward and said, "Blessed are they that weep now; for they shall laugh, and be rewarded with shining robes; yea, with an eternal crown, if they strive steadfastly. This is the sabbath of the Lord, which I have long desired; not that I am worthy to suffer for His name, but He has made me worthy; and thus we suffer not for theft or murder, but for the pure Word of God." Their death is commemorated in the hymn, "Ick mach wel droeflich singen," found in the Liedtboecxken van den Offer des Heeren, No. 6.
