Bunyan, John, 1628-1688

"The Holy war, made by King Shaddai upon Diabolus, for the regaining of the metropolis of the world; or, the losing and taking again of the town of Mansoul"

So the buriers, and those that were appointed for
that purpose, did as they were commanded: they buried the
doubters, and all the skulls and bones, and pieces of bones of
doubters, wherever they found them; and so they cleansed the
plains. Now also Mr. God's-Peace took up his commission, and acted
again as in former days.
Thus they buried in the plains about Mansoul the election doubters,
the vocation doubters, the grace doubters, the perseverance
doubters, the resurrection doubters, the salvation doubters, and
the glory doubters; whose captains were Captain Rage, Captain
Cruel, Captain Damnation, Captain Insatiable, Captain Brimstone,
Captain Torment, Captain No-Ease, Captain Sepulchre, and Captain
Past-Hope; and old Incredulity was, under Diabolus, their general.
There were also the seven heads of their army; and they were the
Lord Beelzebub, the Lord Lucifer, the Lord Legion, the Lord
Apollyon, the Lord Python, the Lord Cerberus, and the Lord Belial.
But the princes and the captains, with old Incredulity, their
general, did all of them make their escape: so their men fell down
slain by the power of the Prince's forces, and by the hands of the
men of the town of Mansoul.
