Matthew 18:29

29 And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

Ver. 29. And his fellow servant fell down ]. This had been sufficient to have broken the heart of a better man than he was any. The more manly and valiant any are, the more gentle and mild to the submissive, as was Alexander and Julius Caesar; and on the contrary, the more base and cowardly, the more hard-hearted and bloody, as Minerius, the pope’s champion, who at the destruction of Mernidol, in France, being entreated for a few poor souls that had escaped his all-devouring sword, although they had no more but their shirts to cover their nakedness, he sternly answered, I know what I have to do; not one of them shall escape my hands, I will send them to dwell in hell among the devils. But what came of it? his raging fury ceased not to proceed, till the Lord shortly after brought him, by a horrible disease (his guts by little and little rotting within him) to the torments of death and terrors of hell.
