Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Universal History of Christian Persecutions and Martyrdom: An Authentic Account of the Most Horrid Cruelties and Tortures Inflicted Upon Early Christians
Henry VIII. Succeeded, with all the advantages he could have desired; and his disgracing Empson and Dudley, the cruel ministers of his father's avaricious designs, his appointing restitution to be made of the sums that had been unjustly exacted of the people, and his ordering justice to be done on those rapacious ministers, gave all people hopes of happy times.
