Bellarmine and Parsons, and other Jesuits, have given this Reason, why the Primitive Christians rebell'd not, Quia deerant vires, Because they wanted strength And we cannot but lament when we consider that they, who have so bitterly declaimed against the Papist's, have yet lick'd up their principles, and prosecuted their design.

But, not to speak of the quite contrary Testimonies of Cyprian; nor of the Thebanlegion, consisting of above 6000. in the Reign of Dioclesian, who suffer'd themselves to be cut in pieces rather than they would rebel; |
