213 See chapter xi. of a _Description of the Kingdom of Japan and Siam_,
by Bernhard Warenius, M.D., Cambridge, Printing-House of John Hayes,
Printer to the University, A.D. 1673. The volume is in Latin, which,
as well as a translation of the same in manuscript, has been
furnished to me by Mr. Benjamin Smith Lyman, of Philadelphia.
Warenius was a Lutheran, and need not be suspected of being
prejudiced in favor of the Jesuits. See also _History of the Martyrs
of Japan_, _Prague_, 1675, by Mathia Tanner, containing many
engravings of the horrible scenes, such as burnings, crucifixions,
and suspensions in the pit, etc.; also _Histoire des Vingt-six
Martyrs du Japon, Crucifie a Nagasaqui le 5 Fevrier, 1597_, par D.
Bouix, Paris, 1862.

216 In the narrative which we give of this insurrection we have relied
chiefly upon the accounts of Mr. Gubbins in his "Review of the
Introduction of Christianity," _Asiatic Society Transactions_, vol.
vi., part 1, p. 36; of Mr. Woolley in his "Historical Notes on
Nagasaki," _do._, vol. ix., part 2, p. 140; and on Dr. Geerts' paper
on the "Arima Rebellion and the Conduct of Koeckebacker," _do._,
vol. xi., p. 51. Mr. Gubbins and Mr. Woolley had access to Japanese
authorities, and we have in their papers been enabled to see this
bloody episode for the first time from a Japanese standpoint. Dr.
Geerts has rendered an invaluable service in
