Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History of the Persecutions Endured by the Protestants of the South of France, Vol. 1 of 2
To those persons who have admitted that great calamities have been endured by the Protestants, but have denied to their sufferings the character of religious persecution, it may not be improper to oh serve: that the principles of the Reform ation, must ever expose their professors to the hatred of those who advocate, either from interest or inclination, the cause of mental slavery. It is certain that it was rather the spirit than the doctrine of the Reformers that was persecuted by the princes, and priests, and courts of Europe. It was not for the holiness of their lives.
