for_o they_o that_o faithful_o and_o constant_o obey_v the_o truth_n even_o unto_o suffer_v persecution_n and_o death_n for_o it_o without_o doubt_n have_v it_o write_v in_o their_o heart_n for_o if_o

do_v suffer_v for_o this_o our_o religion_n or_o no_o to_o answer_v to_o this_o we_o must_v consider_v that_o all_o the_o martyr_n of_o christ_n may_v be_v rank_v into_o four_o sort_n every_o of_o which_o suffer_v for_o such_o truth_n as_o be_v in_o our_o religion_n which_o we_o do_v at_o this_o day_n profess_v i._o sort_v of_o martyr_n be_v those_o who_o suffer_v by_o the_o jew_n whereof_o the_o first_o be_v stephen_n than_o james_n with_o many_o more_o act_n 7._o &_o 12.2_o 4._o all_o these_o do_v suffer_v for_o that_o religion_n which_o christ_n and_o his_o apostle_n teach_v but_o they_o teach_v out_o of_o the_o scripture_n and_o not_o out_o of_o tradition_n as_o the_o evangelist_n and_o act_n show_v but_o to_o suffer_v for_o that_o religion_n which_o be_v only_o teach_v in_o the_o scripture_n be_v to_o suffer_v for_o we_o as_o by_o the_o former_a argument_n be_v prove_v therefore_o they_o suffer_v for_o our_o religion_n ii_o sort_v of_o martyr_n be_v such_o as_o suffer_v by_o and_o among_o the_o heathen_a especial_o under_o the_o roman_a tyrant_n during_o the_o ten_o bloody_a persecution_n among_o which_o martyr_n be_v most_o of_o the_o apostle_n for_o we_o read_v not_o in_o scripture_n that_o any_o of_o the_o apostle_n suffer_v martyrdom_n among_o the_o jew_n but_o only_o james_n johns_n brother_n act_v 12._o the_o rest_n suffer_v among_o the_o heathen_a now_o the_o apostle_n be_v the_o planter_n of_o our_o religion_n as_o by_o their_o write_n do_v appear_v and_o also_o martyr_n for_o the_o same_o among_o this_o second_o sort_n they_o must_v needs_o be_v our_o martyr_n suffer_v for_o our_o religion_n and_o so_o all_o the_o rest_n which_o follow_v the_o apostle_n in_o the_o same_o faith_n iii_o sort_v of_o martyr_n be_v such_o as_o suffer_v by_o the_o fury_n and_o rage_n of_o heretic_n when_o the_o arian_n have_v god_n a_o overswaying_a power_n through_o arian_n emperor_n and_o king_n but_o those_o orthodoxal_a martyr_n and_o confessor_n suffer_v for_o no_o other_o doctrine_n than_o our_o religion_n teach_v for_o we_o hold_v and_o profess_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o council_n of_o nice_a and_o athanasius_n creed_n for_o in_o our_o common_a prayer-book_n they_o be_v appoint_v public_o to_o be_v read_v in_o our_o assembly_n and_o therefore_o these_o also_o suffer_v for_o our_o religion_n and_o be_v our_o martyr_n but_o here_o our_o adversary_n will_v say_v that_o all_o these_o three_o sort_n be_v their_o martyr_n for_o they_o brag_v and_o boast_v of_o these_o to_o silly_a people_n as_o if_o they_o have_v suffer_v for_o their_o religion_n now_o profess_v and_o practise_v among_o they_o but_o that_o the_o truth_n may_v appear_v whether_o these_o martyr_n be_v they_o or_o we_o we_o must_v consider_v they_o both_o as_o martyr_n and_o also_o as_o believer_n proper_o they_o be_v martyr_n in_o those_o thing_n for_o which_o they_o do_v suffer_v now_o their_o suffering_n be_v for_o the_o common_a truth_n receive_v both_o by_o our_o adversary_n and_o us._n so_o the_o cause_n make_v the_o martyr_n and_o it_o equal_o hold_v of_o both_o they_o be_v our_o martyr_n aswell_o as_o they_o yea_o if_o we_o consider_v they_o also_o as_o believer_n hold_v other_o point_n of_o faith_n for_o which_o they_o be_v not_o question_v neither_o suffer_v for_o we_o may_v more_o right_o claim_v they_o than_o our_o adversary_n for_o of_o which_o religion_n they_o hold_v and_o most_o agree_v unto_o of_o that_o religion_n must_v they_o be_v judge_v to_o be_v that_o this_o may_v be_v know_v it_o must_v be_v well_o conceive_v what_o they_o and_o we_o mean_v by_o say_v our_o religion_n we_o either_o side_n stand_v upon_o our_o religion_n not_o as_o we_o agree_v in_o point_n of_o christianity_n one_o with_o the_o other_o but_o as_o we_o have_v our_o difference_n also_o to_o ourselves_o one_o from_o the_o other_o so_o upon_o this_o rest_v the_o point_n to_o try_v the_o martyr_n who_o they_o be_v they_o or_o we_o by_o their_o more_fw-mi or_o less_o agree_v or_o disagree_v with_o either_o side_n in_o our_o say_a difference_n but_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o main_a difference_n of_o their_o religion_n from_o we_o that_o they_o can_v claim_v the_o martyr_n i_o thus_o prove_v by_o these_o ensue_a reason_n i._o if_o these_o main_a difference_n in_o their_o religion_n be_v such_o as_o none_o of_o these_o martyr_n which_o suffer_v by_o and_o among_o the_o jew_n or_o by_o and_o among_o the_o heathen_a or_o by_o and_o among_o the_o wicked_a heretic_n ever_o make_v profession_n of_o much_o less_o suffer_v for_o then_o in_o respect_n of_o these_o difference_n be_v they_o not_o their_o martyr_n they_o can_v appropriate_v they_o to_o themselves_o as_o they_o use_v to_o do_v but_o be_v still_o martyr_n in_o common_a but_o the_o antecedent_n be_v true_a as_o shall_v be_v prove_v by_o my_o three_o reason_n next_o follow_v for_o six_o hundred_o year_n space_n after_o christ_n in_o which_o space_n be_v all_o three_o sort_n of_o martyr_n and_o therefore_o the_o consequence_n can_v be_v deny_v ii_o if_o these_o difference_n in_o their_o religion_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o humane_a invention_n without_o sound_a authority_n from_o holy_a scripture_n and_o that_o the_o martyr_n profess_v and_o believe_v those_o thing_n only_o which_o express_o or_o by_o necessary_a conclusion_n be_v contain_v in_o the_o scripture_n then_o in_o respect_n of_o these_o difference_n they_o be_v not_o their_o martyr_n but_o the_o former_a part_n be_v true_a ergo_fw-la the_o latter_a must_v needs_o be_v grant_v for_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o antecedent_n touch_v the_o unwarrantableness_n of_o these_o their_o difference_n and_o without_o all_o ground_n of_o scripture_n i_o demand_v of_o papist_n what_o scripture_n have_v
