In the fall of 1524 he returned to Zurich and ojienly allied liimself with the Anabaptist party. He published a Ger- man translation of fficolanipadius's book upon the sacraments; but his continued rejection of infant baptism alienated Zwingli from him, and in ilarch, 1526, he was banished. He went to Basel, where he translated Malaehi, with ffico- lampadius's eonunentary (1526), and finally to .Strassburg, where he finished, with .Tohann Denk, a translation of the Pro]ihets (1527), which he published at Worms.

He wandered to Constance, and on the tnunped-up charge of having seduced the servant of his wife, he was beheaded after three months' imprisonment, February 4, 1529. So bitter is still the feeling against the Anabaptists that even to-day he is represented as having been immoral and justly condemned. His very name has been spelled in an opprobrious manner, Hetzer, mean- iug ivritator. HATZFELD, hats'felt, or (Hungarian) ZSOMEOLYA, zhom'bolyo.
