Excerpt from Histoire de la Réformation Française, Vol. 2
Un tel homme pouvait servir militairement la Réforme, mais moralement il ne pouvait rien pour elle l'entrée des Bourbons dans ses rangs ferma l'ère glorieuse des martyrs et ouvrit celle des capitaines; en descendant de ses bûchers pour se présenter sur des champs de bataille, elle perdit cette sève forte et vigoureuse qui avait marqué chacune de ses douleurs par un triomphe. Les promesses faites au martyr ne le sont pas au soldat.
