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.

Hawks. When I knew not Gods word I was a blasphemer and filth•e talker, but since I knew Gods word, I have given laud, praise, and thanks to God with the same tongue. Then he said, how cast ye out Devils? I said, whosoever doth credit and believe Gods word shall cast out Devils. Then he asked me if ever I drank any deadly poison. I said yea forsooth, I have drunken of the pestilent traditions, and ceremonies of the Bishop of Rome.

Hawks. Christ nor his Apostles never killed any for their Faith: he said, Paul did excommunicate, I said, There is difference betwixt excommunicating and burning: he said, Peter destroyed the Man and his Wife in the Acts. I said, They lied against the Holy Ghost, which served nothing for his purpose: Then he said, well, you grant one. I said, If you will have us grant you to be of God, then show mercy, for he requireth mercy: so he went to dinner. The next day Fecknam talked with me.
