 Thomas Norton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas Norton (1532 - March 10, 1584) was an English lawyer, politician and writer of verse.
His punishment of the Catholics, as their official censor from 1581 onwards, led to his being nicknamed "Rackmaster-General." At last his turbulent puritanism made him an object of fear even to the English bishops; he was deprived of his office and thrown into the Tower.
Walsingham presently released him, but Norton's health was undermined, and on the 10th of March 1584 he died in his house at Sharpenhoe, Bedfordshire.
