father-general_n by_o this_o mean_n to_o procure_v they_o their_o favour_n and_o attain_v some_o dignity_n which_o by_o any_o other_o mean_v they_o can_v never_o have_v obtain_v for_o among_o they_o none_o be_v prefer_v to_o any_o office_n of_o importance_n but_o only_o those_o who_o they_o know_v prone_a to_o advance_v their_o society_n to_o that_o height_n of_o greatness_n to_o which_o they_o aspire_v and_o consequent_o none_o but_o such_o as_o be_v know_v to_o be_v sufficient_a in_o the_o manage_n of_o state-affair_n nineth_o as_o from_o divers_a flower_n and_o herb_n by_o mean_n of_o a_o limbick_a a_o man_n may_v draw_v such_o a_o ointment_n as_o be_v fit_a to_o heal_n a_o mortal_a wound_n and_o as_o from_o several_a blossom_n bee_n suck_v honey_n so_o these_o jesuit_n from_o the_o infallible_a relation_n which_o they_o have_v of_o all_o prince_n affair_n and_o of_o all_o accident_n that_o do_v happen_v in_o every_o state_n by_o the_o politic_a power_n of_o their_o own_o

they_o compose_v a_o certain_a art_n of_o their_o own_o profit_n by_o which_o they_o obtain_v their_o own_o end_n as_o well_o from_o the_o good_a of_o some_o as_o hurt_v of_o other_o but_o more_o often_o from_o the_o latter_a than_o the_o former_a thus_o they_o usual_o shackle_v with_o their_o fetter_n that_o prince_n into_o who_o secret_n they_o have_v creep_v propound_v to_o he_o that_o they_o have_v the_o only_a and_o most_o excellent_a mean_n to_o make_v he_o the_o master_n of_o his_o desire_n but_o when_o by_o this_o mean_v they_o have_v draw_v their_o own_o purpose_n from_o he_o consider_v that_o the_o too_o swell_a greatness_n of_o that_o prince_n may_v one_o day_n prove_v prejudicial_a unto_o they_o as_o lawyer_n do_v their_o cause_n they_o prolong_v as_o much_o as_o they_o can_v the_o success_n of_o that_o affair_n and_o afterward_o by_o politic_a plotting_n and_o various_a juggle_n they_o utter_o ruin_v those_o design_n to_o which_o they_o have_v give_v a_o beginning_n the_o league_n of_o france_n treat_v and_o conclude_v by_o they_o not_o long_o after_o they_o abandon_v when_o they_o see_v thing_n prosper_v on_o the_o king_n side_n and_o england_n so_o often_o

already_o say_v it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o the_o jesuit_n have_v no_o good_a intention_n towards_o any_o prince_n whatever_o either_o temporal_a or_o spiritual_a but_o only_o serve_v they_o so_o far_o as_o they_o may_v serve_v their_o own_o turn_n nay_o it_o follow_v yet_o far_o that_o no_o prince_n much_o less_o any_o under_o prelate_n can_v make_v the_o like_a use_n of_o they_o because_o they_o show_v themselves_o at_o the_o very_a same_o time_n equal_o affect_v to_o all_o make_v themselves_o english_a with_o englishman_n french_a with_o french_a spaniard_n with_o spaniard_n &_o so_o with_o all_o other_o nation_n and_o country_n according_a as_o their_o occasion_n require_v from_o which_o they_o do_v intend_v to_o extract_n their_o profit_n they_o have_v no_o regard_n to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o one_o more_o than_o of_o another_o and_o therefore_o those_o erterprise_n in_o which_o they_o have_v intermeddle_v have_v seldom_o time_n succeed_v well_o because_o they_o have_v no_o purpose_n to_o serve_v far_o than_o their_o own_o interest_n dictate_v tot_o hem_o and_o in_o this_o the_o artifice_n which_o they_o use_v be_v most_o notorious_a some_o of_o they_o feign_v themselves_o to_o be_v partial_a to_o the_o crown_n of_o france_n other_o to_o spain_n other_o to_o the_o emperor_n and_o some_o to_o other_o prince_n of_o who_o they_o desire_v to_o be_v most_o favour_v and_o if_o any_o of_o these_o prince_n please_v to_o make_v use_n of_o some_o jesuit_n who_o he_o hold_v for_o his_o confident_a friend_n he_o immediate_o write_v to_o the_o father_n general_n of_o the_o affair_n which_o he_o have_v to_o treat_v on_o and_o expect_v his_o answer_n together_o with_o order_n what_o he_o shall_v do_v and_o conformable_a to_o that_o commission_n he_o rule_v himself_o never_o regard_v whether_o that_o order_n be_v conformable_a to_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o prince_n who_o commit_v the_o care_n of_o that_o affair_n to_o he_o but_o if_o the_o society_n be_v serve_v he_o take_v little_a care_n what_o service_n he_o do_v for_o the_o prince_n beside_o this_o because_o the_o jesuit_n understand_v the_o interest_n of_o all_o prince_n and_o be_v most_o know_v in_o all_o thiing_n daily_o treat_v upon_o in_o secret_a council_n those_o who_o pretend_v to_o hold_v with_o france_n propound_v to_o the_o king_n and_o his_o principal_a minister_n certain_a condition_n of_o state_n and_o important_a consideration_n which_o be_v send_v to_o they_o from_o their_o politic_a father_n at_o rome_n and_o those_o that_o pretend_v to_o hold_v with_o the_o crown_n of_o spain_n do_v just_a the_o same_o with_o they_o and_o so_o with_o the_o rest_n from_o which_o course_n and_o cunning_a of_o they_o there_o arise_v such_o a_o diffidence_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o christian_a prince_n that_o none_o will_v soarce_a give_v credit_n to_o each_o other_o which_o be_v a_o main_a prejudice_n to_o the_o public_a peace_n and_o universal_a welfare_n of_o christendom_n the_o which_o diffidence_n of_o they_o be_v that_o which_o make_v it_o so_o difficult_a a_o thing_n to_o conclude_v a_o league_n against_o a_o common_a enemy_n and_o precious_a peace_n to_o be_v of_o so_o little_a value_n among_o prince_n furthermore_o with_o these_o artificious_a device_n they_o have_v so_o open_v the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n and_o sharpen_a man_n wit_n in_o matter_n of_o state_n that_o to_o this_o day_n tot_o he_o notable_a prejudice_n of_o the_o holy_a church_n they_o attend_v to_o nothing_o else_o but_o matter_n of_o policy_n and_o poise_v all_o their_o action_n in_o that_o false_a balance_n but_o to_o the_o end_n that_o these_o jesuitical_a stratagem_n may_v yet_o appear_v more_o plain_o i_o can_v here_o conceal_v the_o mean_n by_o which_o they_o inveigle_v prince_n to_o be_v of_o their_o party_n there_o be_v some_o year_n now_o past_a since_o one_o of_o these_o father_n call_v father_n parson_n the_o assistant_n of_o england_n write_v

to_o be_v at_o discord_n among_o themselves_o although_o all_o this_o be_v indeed_o cunning_o do_v and_o by_o the_o special_a command_n of_o their_o father_n general_n only_o for_o this_o purpose_n that_o whosoever_o shall_v succeed_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n they_o may_v have_v a_o excellent_a argument_n to_o work_v in_o he_o a_o great_a and_o good_a opinion_n of_o their_o society_n and_o so_o to_o extract_v their_o own_o end_n from_o he_o a_o fair_a example_n to_o show_v we_o that_o prince_n be_v the_o object_n of_o all_o jesuitical_a action_n and_o determination_n and_o by_o consequence_n to_o make_v good_a their_o own_o say_v that_o their_o society_n be_v a_o grand_a monarchy_n again_o that_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o may_v appear_v that_o the_o jesuit_n have_v no_o regard_n whether_o they_o please_v or_o displease_v any_o prince_n where_o their_o own_o interest_n be_v most_o near_o concern_v although_o experience_n of_o infinite_a thing_n pass_v make_v it_o as_o clear_a as_o the_o sun_n at_o noonday_n yet_o the_o particular_n which_o i_o shall_v here_o subjoin_v will_v render_v it_o every_o way_n most_o evident_a there_o be_v no_o person_n in_o the_o world_n
