4. One of our nobility has for his motto, “I will maintain it”; but the Christian has a better
and more humble one: “Thou hast maintained it.” “God and my right” are united by my faith: while God lives, my right
shall never be taken from me. If we seek to maintain the cause and honor of our
Lord we may suffer reproach and misrepresentation, but it is a rich comfort to
remember that he who sits in the throne knows our hearts, and will not leave us
to the ignorant and ungenerous judgment of erring man.
