- summary: They freely and boldly all with one accord confessed themselves to be Christians , and told him their names ; and being endeavour'd with to win them by fair words as well as by threats of torments , they said , They desired not Life , Liberty , honours or dignities , or Mony , but the Celestial Kingdom of Christ : For the love of whom and Faith in God they were ready to endure the Cross , Wheel , Fire ; and were sentenced to be all that night in a Pond of water in cold weather , and next day to be burnt ; who when they were putting off their cloaths , said , We give thanks , O Lord , that with these our cloaths we may also by thy Grace put off the sinful Man ; for by means of the Serpent we once put him on , and by the means of Jesus Christ we put him off . SO great an enmity hath Satan evidenced , ever since his own Apostasie , against Mankind , that he must be conceded to have bin very sedulous and vigilant in all Ages to destroy Souls , one while alluring them to sin against God , by his 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 of worldly or sensual propositions , or else deterring them from adhering to God , vi & armis , by his assaults and persecutions ; the verity of which hath been continuedly evidenced in the successive Ages of God's Church , wherein the first member dying , dyed a Martyr on the account of his Religion , and the several Prophets and Children of God before Christ have been so persecuted , sawn asunder , cast into Dungeons , fiery Furnaces , Lyons dens , &c. That if to these we add the consideration of St. Paul's Martyrology in Heb. 11.

On the contrary , some that were in prison , and purposed to suffer for the truth , were ●y the death of Queen Mary happily preserved , that being a true observation which * one hath , As good husbands do not put al their corn to the oven , but save some for seed , so doth God ever in the worst of persecutions .
