A87579	The Jesuites intrigues with the private instructions of that society to their emissaries. The first, translated out of a book privately printed at Paris. The second, lately found in manuscript in a Jesuites closet after his death. Both sent with a letter from a gentleman at Paris, to his friend in London.

reason_n compose_v their_o own_o interest_n out_o of_o the_o faithful_a intelligence_n they_o have_v of_o the_o concern_v of_o all_o prince_n and_o of_o all_o occurrence_n of_o state_n by_o which_o they_o do_v not_o only_o refresh_v that_o inward_a thirst_n of_o become_v great_a but_o make_v likewise_o a_o mighty_a advantage_n in_o understand_v their_o own_o emolument_fw-fr in_o prosecution_n of_o which_o they_o beat_v down_o all_o before_o they_o to_o accomplish_v their_o end_n but_o what_o be_v most_o remarkable_a when_o as_o we_o have_v say_v before_o they_o be_v get_v into_o the_o

themselves_o have_v lay_v he_o that_o will_v but_o reflect_v upon_o the_o league_n of_o france_n which_o be_v carry_v on_o and_o conclude_v by_o they_o be_v likewise_o detect_v when_o they_o see_v

of_o what_o i_o have_v say_v may_v we_o not_o then_o very_o just_o draw_v this_o conclusion_n from_o the_o whole_a that_o the_o jesuit_n have_v no_o real_a or_o sincere_a kindness_n for_o any_o nor_o will_v oblige_v the_o world_n beyond_o their_o own_o interest_n neither_o prince_n nor_o prelate_n can_v make_v use_n of_o they_o without_o injury_n to_o themselves_o for_o at_o the_o same_o instant_n they_o pretend_v a_o like_a respect_n to_o all_o become_v monsieur_n with_o the_o french_a don_n with_o the_o spaniard_n and_o so_o with_o all_o other_o country_n as_o occasion_n serve_v and_o hope_n of_o advantage_n they_o be_v very_o indifferent_a who_o it_o be_v they_o do_v harm_n or_o good_a to_o and_o no_o doubt_n it_o be_v that_o excessive_a self-interest_n and_o the_o little_a regard_n they_o have_v to_o any_o man_n concern_v else_o which_o make_v few_o enterprise_n succeed_v in_o which_o they_o have_v a_o hand_n however_o i_o must_v allow_v that_o they_o have_v a_o incomparable_a art_n in_o conceal_v this_o indifference_n some_o of_o they_o still_o pretend_v a_o great_a zeal_n for_o the_o crown_n of_o france_n other_o for_o that_o of_o spain_n other_o for_o the_o emperor_n and_o for_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o prince_n from_o who_o they_o expect_v any_o favour_n but_o if_o it_o so_o fall_v out_o that_o some_o one_o of_o these_o prince_n take_v a_o jesuit_n into_o his_o cabinet-counsel_n this_o fellow_n shall_v no_o soon_o know_v any_o thing_n but_o that_o he_o will_v advise_v the_o father_n general_n of_o it_o who_o present_o send_v back_o his_o result_n upon_o it_o in_o order_n to_o which_o he_o proceed_v without_o consideration_n either_o of_o his_o prince_n will_v or_o service_n and_o though_o these_o i_o have_v already_o declare_v be_v very_o great_a inconvenience_n i_o will_v show_v you_o yet_o great_a the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o jesuit_n be_v full_o inform_v of_o the_o several_a interest_n and_o counsel_n of_o prince_n they_o among_o they_o that_o feign_v themselves_o to_o be_v of_o the_o french_a faction_n propound_v to_o the_o king_n or_o his_o chief_a minister_n certain_a consideration_n of_o state_n which_o may_v be_v of_o some_o weight_n such_o as_o have_v be_v send_v from_o rome_n in_o their_o politic_a letter_n those_o which_o flatter_v the_o court_n of_o spain_n or_o any_o other_o government_n where_o they_o have_v access_n make_v other_o proposition_n in_o these_o place_n quite_o contrary_a to_o the_o former_a or_o at_o least_o such_o as_o may_v keep_v christian_a prince_n at_o a_o distance_n to_o be_v in_o perpetual_a jealousy_n one_o of_o another_o which_o disturb_v the_o common_a peace_n more_o than_o can_v be_v imagine_v and_o bring_v a_o misfortune_n upon_o all_o christendom_n for_o such_o a_o defiance_n hinder_v all_o possibility_n of_o join_v against_o the_o common_a enemy_n and_o indeed_o make_v all_o treaty_n of_o peace_n between_o prince_n signify_v very_o little_a the_o second_o inconvenience_n be_v that_o by_o these_o subtle_a practice_n they_o have_v so_o open_v the_o eye_n of_o all_o people_n that_o no_o body_n mind_v any_o thing_n else_o but_o the_o politic_n so_o as_o nothing_o be_v do_v now_o a_o day_n that_o be_v not_o first_o weigh_v in_o this_o blance_n nor_o any_o business_n that_o be_v not_o direct_v by_o this_o jesuitical_a compass_n but_o all_o this_o will_v be_v nothing_o to_o what_o mischief_n will_v ensue_v if_o they_o of_o the_o reform_a church_n shall_v take_v up_o this_o example_n and_o abuse_v their_o interest_n with_o prince_n after_o this_o manner_n for_o then_o in_o stead_n of_o lutheran_n with_o who_o some_o accommodation_n may_v it_o be_v hope_v be_v find_v out_o one_o day_n we_o shall_v have_v spring_n up_o a_o politic_a brood_n of_o irreconcilable_a antichrist_n and_o to_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o i_o have_v say_v nothing_o but_o the_o truth_n when_o i_o have_v charge_v the_o jesuit_n with_o such_o abominable_a artifices_fw-la and_o collusion_n above_o all_o when_o they_o be_v upon_o insinuate_v themselves_o into_o the_o favour_n of_o prince_n i_o must_v not_o forget_v what_o be_v do_v among_o they_o some_o

prince_n have_v always_o desire_v a_o jesuit_n confessor_n when_o they_o have_v be_v engage_v in_o hateful_a practice_n that_o they_o may_v not_o hear_v of_o reproof_n but_o still_o have_v some_o
