Strana 33 - The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made : in the net which they hid is their own foot taken.
Strana 195 - And we command that Christian men be not, on any account, for altogether too little, condemned to death : but rather let gentle punishments be decreed, for the benefit of the people; and let not be destroyed for little God's handy-work, and his own purchase which he dearly bought.
