I terminate my history, trusting that those things respecting the Roman Catholic Church, which I have faithfully recorded, may tend to fill the inhabitants of this Protestant land [i.e., England] with a sense of gratitude to that God, who has liberated their country from the slavery of that great apostacy whose name is mystery."--p. 326.
