"You speak an unintelligible language. What is the wrath of the Lamb? You do not think on what is before you."
"My companions and friends have already endured all that you can inflict. I trust that I may have like fortitude."
"Can you endure the terrors of the arena?"
"I hope to have more than mortal strength."
"Can you face the savage lions and tigers that will then rush upon you?"
"He in whom I trust will not desert me in my time of need."
"You are confident."
"I confide in Him who loved me and gave himself for me."
"Have you thought of the death by fire? Are you ready to meet the flames at the stake?"
"Alas! If I must bear it I will not shrink. At the worst it will soon be over, and then I shall be forever with the Lord."
