The Spirit of Christ, and the spirit of the Apostles, and the spirit of the martyrs is arisen, : which beareth testimony against swearing and oaths: for which the martyrs suffered in the time of the ten persecutions, and some since; which we also, the people of God called Quakers, do now suffer for, as many thousands have done, for keeping the commands of Christ, who saith, swear not at all. And also, here you may see such martyrs as could not put off their hat or bonnet to the Pope, nor his legate. And an example of one martyr, that could not give sureties, being innocent. So that you may see in this book following to swear not at all, nor to take oaths, nor to deny putting off the hat or bonnet, nor to deny giving sureties (being innocent) is no new thing which is proved out of the Scriptures, and book of martyrs.
