Matthew20:19
Verse 19. To mock, and to scourge, and to crucifie him.] What are all our sufferings to his? and yet we think our selves undone, if but toucht: and in setting forth our calamities, we adde, we multiply, we rise in our discourse, like him in the Poet. I am thrice [non-Latin text not transcribed]. [illegible: 1 word]. miserable, nay ten, twenty, an hundred, a thousand times unhappie. And yet all our sufferings are but as the [illegible: 1 word] and chips of that crosse, upon which Christ, nay many Christians have suffered. In the time of Adrian the Emperour, ten thousand Martyrs are said to have been crucified in the mount of Ararath, crowned with thorns, and thrust into the sides with sharp darts, after the example of the Lords passion. The chief of whom were Achaicus, Act. and Mon. Heliades, Theodorus, Carcerius, &c.
