350 V| against you. And then the christian people received these letters,
351 V| not to bear arms against christian men, but rather to defend
352 V| destroyed, and specially on christian men. And when the holy knights
353 V| had heard that they were christian men, sighing he wailed greatly,
354 V| apperceived that he was a christian man, they anon ran upon
355 V| The company of these true christian men enlumined with divine
356 V| he were come to put the christian men in error, and said:
357 V| our country is Arabia, but christian men know not fortune. Then
358 V| brethren together.~Then the christian men doubted of the word
359 V| counsel of the bishop, the christian men took truce for three
360 V| submitted them anon to the christian faith. The second victory
361 V| answered boldly that he was a christian man. And the judge said:
362 V| art a Ciceronian, and no christian man, whereas thy treasure
363 V| is interpreted of a very christian. It is written also of Jerome
364 V| named Clotilde, which was christian, and she enforced her much

378 VI| prayers and devotions of true christian people that pray in that
379 VI| and true intent of this christian king, S. Edward, confirmed
380 VI| is promised to all true christian men. Put ye away your weeping
381 VI| history of Antioch that the christian men were besieged of a great
382 VI| against the Turks. Then the christian men enhardened themselves
383 VI| manner. In Britain was a christian king named Notus or Maurus,
384 VI| assembled to them, doubted that christian religion should much be
385 VI| behead them because they were christian. And the blessed Ciriacus

387 VI| Goths enforced them against christian men in the time of the emperor
388 VI| the furious persecution of christian men was made under Diocletian
389 VI| the holy saints, of true christian people. Then let us pray
390 VI| thing on them. And then the christian men took the bodies of them,
391 VI| Chrysostom saith to us: Thou, christian man, art a knight delicate
