Christs victory over Satan's tyranny Wherein is contained a catalogue of all Christs faithful soldiers that the Devil either by his grand captains the emperors, or by his most dearly beloved sons and heirs the popes, have most cruelly martyred for the truth. With all the poisoned doctrines wherewith that great read dragon hath made drunken the kings and inhabitants of the earth; with the confutations of them together with all his traitorous practises and designs, against all Christian princes to this day, especially against our late Queen Elizabeth of famous memory, and our most religious Sovereign Lord King James. Faithfully abstracted out of the Book of martyrs, and divers other books. By Thomas Mason preacher of Gods Word.Christs victorie ouer Sathans tyrannie Wherin is contained a catalogue of all Christs faithfull souldiers that the Diuell either by his grand captaines the emperours, or by his most deerly beloued sonnes and heyres the popes, haue most cruelly martyred for the truth.

Her condemnation.
They said I was an heretic, and condemned by the law, if I would stand to my opinion; I said, touching my Faith I said and wrote to the Council, I would not deny because I knew it true: then they would know whether I would deny the Sacrament of Christs body and blood; I answered yea: for the same Son of GOD that was borne of the blessed Virgin Mary, is now glorious in the heavens, and will come again at the last day as he went up: and ⟨p. 208⟩that which you call your God is a piece of bread, and for more proof thereof, let it lie in a box but three months and it will be mouldy and turn to nothing that is good, therefore I am persuaded it is no God.
