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.

I desire you for the love that you have to the truth and to all good men, that you would teach me some certainty: First it is said you maintain that there remaineth but natural bread in the Sacrament after consecration, which he denied: Then the Friar asked him what manner of union is betwixt the man-hood and God-hood of Christ: Then Hus said, you say you are simple, but you are double and crafty, in that you have propounded so difficult a Question: yet I will show you my mind, which when he had done, the Friar thanked him, and departed: after the Popes Garrison told him that this Friar was counted the subtlest Divine in Lombardy: then Pallets and Causis his Adversaries made earnest means to the Cardinals that he should not be set at liberty: and having favour of the Judges, mocked the said Hus; saying, now we will hold you well-enough, you shall not depart until you have paid the uttermost farthing: At night the Provost of the Roman Court told Master Clum he might depart, but they had otherwise provided for Master Hus: Master Clum went to the Pope, declaring all that was done, beseeching him to remember the promise which he had made: the Pope answered, it was done without his consent, and told Master Clum apart, why do you impute this to me; you know that I my self am in the hands of these Cardinals and Bishops, so he returned very pensive, and complained openly and privately of the Popes wrong, but it profited not. Then Hus was led to prison and kept there eight days, from thence he was carried to an other prison belonging to the Abbey, where by reason of the sti••e of the place he fell sick, and was so weak that they despaired of his life.
