Goris (Joris) Cooman, an Anabaptist martyr, of Lier in Brabant, Belgium, was burned at the stake on 11 April 1551 at Ghent, with Naentken (Bor­naige), Grietgen (Margriete van den Berghe), and Wouter (van der Weyden). These martyrs are celebrated in a hymn, "Doemen vijftienhondert schreve, daertoe een en vijftich jaer," found in the Liedtboecxken van den Offer des Heeren (No. 4).
