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.

Rid. I am sorry therefore, and I trust God hath forgiven me, for I did it ignorantly, & these things in the Mass are contrary to Gods Word and offend me. The strange tongue, the want of showing the Lords death, the Sacrament is not communicated unto all under both kinds: the sign is worshipped for the thing signified: Christs passion is injured, by affirming the Mass to purge sins, and there are manifold superstitions, and trifling fondness in the same.
