Throughout this novel so far, one of the main mindsets the Catholics need to keep is never give him and always stick to your beliefs. One of the captured priest stood up in front of the samurai and expressed his feelings saying, “You will not meet with greater suffering than this… the Lord will not abandon you forever. He is who washes your our blood; his is the hands that wipes our blood. The Lord will not be silenced forever.” Page 113
