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.

Latimer in his Sermons before Christmas gave the people certain Cards, out of the fifth, sixth, and seventh of Matthew: Whereupon they might occupy the time, for the chief Card he limited the Heart, as the principal thing they should serve GOD with, and thereby he overthrew all hypocritical, and external Ceremonies, to that end he wished the Scriptures to be read altogether in the English tongue, that the common people might thereby learn their duties to GOD and their Neighbours: hereby he wrought in the hearers much fruit, to the overthrow of Popish Superstition, and setting up of true Religion.
