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.

Mary withdrew her self into Norfolk and Suffolk, where she knew the Duke was hated; and there gathering such aide of the Commons as she might, kept her self in Fremingham Castle, to whom Suffolk-men resorted, and promised her their aide if she would not alter the religion which her brother had established, to which she agreed, with such promises as no man could have misdoubted her: and thus being guarded with the power of the Gospellers, she vanquished the Duke and all that came against her.
Mary withdrew her selfe into Northfolke and Suffolke, where she knew the Duke was hated; and there gathering such aide of the Commons as she might, kept her selfe in Fremingham Castle, to whom Suffolk-men resorted, and promised her their aide if she would not alter the religion which her brother had established, to which she agreed, with such promises as no man could haue misdoubted her: and thus being guarded with the power of the Gospellers, she vanquished the Duke and all that came against her.
But after, the Suffolk-men making supplication unto her Grace for performance of her promise, she answered, You shall one day well perceive that members must obey their head, and not look to rule the same: and one Dobbe a Gentleman for advertising her of her promise by humble request, was three times set in the pillory, to be a gassing-stock to all men; others delivered her books and supplications out of the Scripture, to exhort her to continue the doctrine then established, who were sent to prison.
