Chap. 78.
John Kutnaur Senator of old Prague.
HE was younger then all (for he had ſcarce finished his fortieth year) but yet almoſt ſuperior to all in courage, when the Jeſuites coming to him began to ſpeak, he interrupted them, & ſaid, my Fathers, we pray you that you would not trouble our conſciences, we are ſufficiently furniſhed with comforts againſt the fear of death, we need none of your helpe. When they proceeded to ſpeak, he ſaid, we will not hear you, hold your peace Why do you create unprofitable labours to your ſelves and trouble to us? A Jeſuite ſpeaking to his companion, that they were hard rocks and would not ſuffer themſelves to be removed; he anſwered, You ſay right Father, for Chriſt is a hard rock and we are firmly fixed in him.
