Excerpt from Book of Martyrs: Or a History of the Lives, Sufferings, and Triumphant Deaths of the Primitive as Well as Protestant Martyrs; From the Commencement of Christianity, to the Latest Periods of Pagan and Popish Persecution

To the American people this subject presents itself with peculiar interest. For some years the Papal authorities have turned a longing eye toward the United States. Vast sums have been, and are yearly being, expended to extend the Papal power. Magnificent cathedrals have been erected, and Catholic priests by hundreds have been sent over to establish their corrupt system in every unoccupied portion of the country. Publications, very numerous, and conducted with no small ability, are pouring forth from the press, to aid the Jesuit in bringing the ignorant and incautious in subjection to the Man of Sin.
