A31633	The cabinet of the Jesuits secrets opened in which there are many things relating to the church and clergy of England : as also the ways by which they encrease the number and wealth of their society on the ruines of kingdoms and families : in part began by Dr. Oats from an Italian copy, but now more largely discovered from a French copy printed at Colon, 1678 / made English by a person of quality.; Monita Secreta Societatis Jesu.

for_o who_o be_v it_o that_o have_v not_o just_a cause_n to_o complain_v of_o the_o jesuit_n yet_o as_o it_o often_o happen_v that_o sick_a person_n send_v up_o their_o cry_n to_o heaven_n and_o be_v

by_o they_o with_o a_o fidelity_n become_v their_o habit_n yet_o the_o evil_n continue_v nevertheless_o because_o most_o man_n can_v perceive_v the_o true_a cause_n of_o so_o great_a a_o disaster_n but_o if_o they_o will_v examine_v the_o thing_n a_o little_a more_o exact_o they_o shall_v easy_o find_v that_o it_o be_v the_o vast_a and_o boundless_a desire_n they_o have_v to_o aggrandise_n themselves_o which_o make_v they_o think_v it_o a_o thing_n of_o no_o moment_n to_o discontent_a prince_n or_o deceive_v they_o to_o oppress_v the_o poor_a to_o spoil_v widow_n and_o ruin_v most_o

will_v not_o this_o be_v a_o strange_a disorder_n in_o nature_n if_o one_o of_o the_o least_o member_n of_o the_o body_n and_o that_o form_v to_o no_o other_o end_n than_o to_o serve_v as_o a_o

both_o become_v the_o spy_n of_o the_o general_n to_o who_o they_o give_v a_o exact_a account_n of_o the_o most_o secret_a affair_n and_o from_o hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o what_o be_v

study_v politic_n that_o they_o may_v be_v able_a to_o serve_v he_o in_o this_o glorious_a design_n as_o they_o esteem_v it_o and_o to_o this_o purpose_n they_o employ_v their_o kindred_n and_o friend_n to_o search_v the_o heart_n of_o king_n to_o discover_v their_o most_o secret_a intention_n never_o fail_v to_o give_v advice_n of_o they_o to_o the_o general_n and_o his_o assistant_n so_o soon_o as_o they_o can_v learn_v the_o least_o particular_a for_o as_o they_o know_v this_o be_v the_o only_a way_n to_o gain_v the_o goodwill_n of_o their_o superior_n and_o bring_v themselves_o to_o

their_o end_n by_o the_o good_a or_o evil_a fortune_n of_o other_o but_o that_o which_o be_v yet_o more_o remarkable_a be_v that_o have_v thus_o steal_v into_o the_o heart_n of_o any_o prince_n they_o

we_o not_o then_o draw_v hence_o this_o conclusion_n that_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o jesuit_n be_v neither_o right_a nor_o sincere_a towards_o any_o they_o serve_v the_o world_n no_o further_o

their_o irregular_a attention_n to_o their_o private_a interest_n and_o the_o neglect_v they_o have_v of_o the_o advancement_n of_o any_o other_o person_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n why_o all_o
