ANNALS
OF THE
Rise, Progress, and Persecutions,
Of the FAMOUS
REFORMED CHURCHES
IN
FRANCE:
WHICH ARE
At this Day groaning under the cruel Bondage of
POPISH TYRANNY;
WITH AN
ADDRESS,
Calculated to excite Christian Sympathy, and Charity to-
wards the Persecuted, and a religious Concern in
BRITISH PROTESTANTS to improve the unspeakable
Privileges they enjoy.
Your Faith, and Patience, in all your Persecutions, and Tri-
bulations that ye endure. Which is a manifest Token of the righ-
teous Judgment of GOD (that there is a Day when he will judge
the World in Righteousness) that ye may be counted worthy
of the Kingdom of GOD, for which ye also suffer: Seeing it
is a righteous Thing with GOD to recompense Tribulation to
them that trouble you; and to you who are troubled, rest, & c.
2 Thess. i. 4. ad fin.

I burn but am not consumed. –
Cœlum non Animum mutant, qui Papæ serviunt.
