# A Testament From Bartholomeus Panten To His Little Daughter, Who After Her Father’S Death Was Put Into A Convent By The Priests; The Lord Grant That She May Yet Be Brought Into The Right Way. · Page 3 of 3 [Previous page: A TESTAMENT FROM BARTHOLOMEUS PANTEN TO HIS LITTLE DAUGHTER, WHO AFTER HER FATHER’S DEATH WAS PUT INTO A CONVENT BY THE PRIESTS; THE LORD GRANT THAT SHE MAY YET BE BROUGHT INTO THE RIGHT WAY.](/en/stories/mm-a-testament-from-bartholomeus-panten-to-his-little-daughter-who-after-her-fathers-death-was-put-into-a-convent-by-the-pr/part-2/) · [Book contents](/en/sources/martyrs-mirror/#book-contents) · [Next page: MICHIEL HAZEL, A.

Hence, pray the Lord for help and assistance, for he is the giver of every good thing; that after this life you may hear the welcome voice: “Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was a hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Matt. 25:34. Hence, my dear child, exercise yourself herein, and have your delight in it; do according to Tobit’s advice: If thou hast much, give much; if thou hast little, give little, and that with a faithful heart. Tobit 4:8. O my dear child, be mindful of what I have written you, and be always faithful and obedient to people, in all that is not contrary to the truth; and be diligent in your labor, courteous, gentle and meek; for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth. Eph. 5:9. Herewith I commend my dear child to the Lord, and to those that fear God. This was written by me your father, Bartholomeus Panten, on the same day that I was tortured for the name of the Lord; some of it before the torturing, and some after it. Let all of you that read this, or hear it read, bear in mind, and not be surprised, though this has taken place, for the apostle Peter says: Beloved, think it not strange, as though some strange thing happened unto you; but rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that in the time of revelation ye may be glad with exceeding joy, if ye are now reproached here for the name of Christ. Amen. By me, Bartholomeus Panten. ## Original source [Read this passage on Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/65855/pg65855-images.html#Page_1031) [Edition details](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/65855) [Previous page: A TESTAMENT FROM BARTHOLOMEUS PANTEN TO HIS LITTLE DAUGHTER, WHO AFTER HER FATHER’S DEATH WAS PUT INTO A CONVENT BY THE PRIESTS; THE LORD GRANT THAT SHE MAY YET BE BROUGHT INTO THE RIGHT WAY.](/en/stories/mm-a-testament-from-bartholomeus-panten-to-his-little-daughter-who-after-her-fathers-death-was-put-into-a-convent-by-the-pr/part-2/) · [Book contents](/en/sources/martyrs-mirror/#book-contents) · [Next page: MICHIEL HAZEL, A.
