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.

How say you to the woman that touched the hem of Christ vesture, did not her disease depart by that ceremony: I said there went virtue from Christ as himself said: whether was it his virtue, or his besture that healed the woman: He said both, I said then is not Christ true: For he said, Thy Faith hath made thee whole.

Feck. How say you Sirrah, Christ took bread and brake it, and said, Take, eat, this is my body: is it not so: I said I do not understand it so: Then he said Christ is a liar: I said, I think you will prove him so: for every word that Christ spoke is not to be understood as he spoke it: For he said, I am a Door, a Vine, a King, a Way, &c. He said he spake this in parables.
