And thus they continue unto this present day, inciting men to these evil deeds, even as it is told of Omar the Caliph. "If one among you," said he, "hath a heathen neighbor and is in need, let him seize and sell him." AND AS THEY CONTINUE UNTO THIS PRESENT DAY INCITING MEN TO THESE EVIL DEEDS EVEN AS IT IS TOLD OF OMER THE CALIPH IF ONE AMONG YOU SAID HE HATH A HEATHEN NEIGHBOUR AND THESE INDEED LET HIM SEIZE AND SELL HIM
as called. They wrote out in every tongue the holy Gospel, and the story and teaching of Christ, at the dictation of the Holy Ghost. So the nations drew near unto them, believing their testimony; and, giving up the world and their false beliefs, they embraced the Christian faith as soon as ever the dawn of truth and the light of the good tidings broke in upon them. Distinguishing the true from the false, and error from the right direction, they embraced the Gospel and held it fast without doubt or wavering, when they saw the wonderful works and signs of the apostles, and their lives and conversation set after the holy and beautiful example of our Saviour, the traces whereof remain even unto the present day.... How different this from the life of thy Master (Mohammed) and his companions, who ceased not to go forth in battle and rapine, to smite with the sword, to seize the little ones, and ravish the wives and maidens, plundering and laying waste, and carrying the people into captivity. O THE COUNTRY TO WHICH HE WAS CALLED THEY WROTE OUT IN EVERY TONGUE THE HOLY GOSPEL AND THE STORY AND TEACHING OF CHRIST AT THE DICTATION OF THE HOLY GHOST SO THE NATIONS DREW NEAR UNTO THEM BELIEVING THEIR TESTIMONY AND GIVING UP THE WORLD AND THEIR FALSE BELIEFS THEY EMBRACED THE CHRISTIAN FAITH AS SOON AS EVER THE DAWN OF TRUTH AND THE LIGHT OF THE GOOD TIDINGS BROKE IN UPON THEM DISTINGUISHING THE TRUE FROM THE FALSE AND ERROR FROM THE RIGHT DIRECTION THEY EMBRACED THE GOSPEL AND HELD IT FAST WITHOUT DOUBT OR WAVERING WHEN THEY SAW THE WONDERFUL BULKS AND SIGNS OF THE APOSTLES AND THEIR LIVES AND CONVERSATIONS SET AFTER THE HOLY AND BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLE OF OUR SAVIOUR THE TRACES WHEREOF REMAIN EVEN UNTO THE PRESENT DAY HOW DIFFERENT IS FROM THE LIFE OF THAY MASTER MOHAMMAD AND HIS COMPANIONS WHO CEASED NOT TO GO FORTH IN BATTLE AND RAPINE TO SMITE WITH THE SWORD TO SEIZE THE LITTLE ONES AND RAVISH THE WIVES AND MAIDENS PLUNDERING AND LAYING WASTE AND CARRYING THE PEOPLE INTO CAPTIVITY
