a
group of
radical English Protestants that arose in the sixteenth century and became a
major force in
England during the seventeenth century. Puritans wanted to "purify" the Church of
England by eliminating traces of its
origins in the
Roman Catholic Church. In addition, they urged a strict
moral code and placed a high

hard work. Many Puritans, persecuted in their homeland,
left England, some emigrating to Holland and many to America in the 1620s and 1630s, settling
colonies that eventually became Massachusetts. Well, I

mores although they were, by label, the same
group.
