A SUPPLEMENT TO THE Popish Courant, ANNEXED TO THE WEEKLY PACKET OF Advice from Rome: Friday October 14. 1681. In a Dialogue between Trueman and Tory. Truem. HOw? given his Soul to the Devil? turned a Doctor Faustus? Tor. So says the Infallible Observator, No. 61. which I rather believe then a Geneva Bible, and he tells you the Condition too, as punctually as if he had been a witness to the Contract. Truem. This is wholly extraordinary; but what If there should be no more Truth in this, than there was in another of his Observations, not long since of Doctor Oats lying all along upon the High Altar at St. Omers, and saying he was taking his Leave of Jesus Christ, 'tis true, Monsieur Observator does not tell the Story so much at large as the Jesuit that first invented it, but yet he fairly hints it as a great Truth: for with the Vomits of the Jesuits he stuffs his Papers, and from their Topics has for these two years Ridiculed the Popish Plot. Tor. Well; If Care have so Mortgaged himself; I'll warrant you old Nick has taken possession, for I am sure Care has often broke the Condition specified, and told some unlucky Truths; therefore though I am not Guilty of much good meaning to the Wretch, yet for the Honour of holy Church, that a miracle may be wrought, I would Recommend a Receipt for him. Truem. What to drive the Devil out? Tor. Yes; On my word 'tis as easily done as to Cure an Ague with Jesuits Powder, in a Book Entitled Flagellum Demonum (the Devil's Scourge) wrote by the Reverend Father Jerome Mengus, a Friar Minorite, Printed WITH ALLOWANCE (Sir) at Lion's Anno 1614, you have a hundred of these Divel-Driving-Medicines, each with its Probatum. Truem, Prithee, let's have one of them. Tor. Why p. 51. There is this that follows; but pray mind the Cross. I Conjure thee O Devil, by what names soever thou art called, by the living ✚ God and by these Holy Names of God, That at my Command from this Creature of God N. thou do without delay departed, putting him to no pain, nor doing him any damage, and without the Hurt of any person ✚ Hell, ✚ Heloym, ✚ Adonay, ✚ Saday, ✚ Soter, ✚ Emanuel, ✚ Tetragrammaton, ✚ Alpha and Omega, ✚ Agyos, ✚ Yschyros, ✚ Otheos', ✚ Athanatos, ✚ Agla, ✚ Jehova, ✚ Homoousion, ✚ Ya, ✚ Jesus, ✚ Christus, ✚ Messiah, ✚ Eloa, ✚ Eheye ✚. Again, I Conjure thee by the Blessed Virgin Mary, and by all the Court of Heaven, and by all things wherewith thou mayst be bound, That forthwith thou show thyself, O thou Malignant Spirit, and answer me touching whatever I shall Interrogate thee. Trum. Nay, If this won't do, I know not what will,— But without Fooling, I believe there may be no need of your Catholic Exorcism, for I am told Care defies the Devil and L'Estrange, and all their Works, and lives in the Peace of God and the King. That he ever said L'Estrange had a hand in the Burning of London, or that he removed his Books and Papers, etc. is utterly false; and the small Eves-droping Tongue-pads that informed the Observator, abused him, 'Twas well there was other Company that remembered Cares Words, and the occasion; and 'twas a kindness that the Youths did not Swear Treason against him when their hand was in, Care does not use to keep Boys Company, but they (having it seems a design) obtruded themselves, and began to Quote L'Estrange, of whom Care gave a due Character, that he was a very Ingenious Fellow, but he feared, abused those good parts, God had lent him; to the prejudice of the King (by raising Causeless Jealousies) and of the Protestant Religion: after which a story was told, that it was reported, a certain Blade near Puddle-Dock, that before the Fire caused some Hay (not Books or Papers) that was ordered in thither, to be carried to Holburn; but not a word of L'Estrange's being the man, for on the contrary Tradition delivers it to be an old Fellow, that was at that time Stallion to a woman thereabouts. L'Estrange, 'tis like might have been mentioned in the foregoing Chat, and so had the Pope, and the French King; but Care did not charge any of them to have any hand in the Fire; and to tell you the Truth, though Care does not imagine the Gentleman to be a Fireball flinger in 1666. yet there are an hundred thousand good Loyal Subjects, that believe him to be a Pamphlet-Incendiary. Tor. You Whigs will be tattling, but you see what a Prophecy the Observator has about Juries. Truem. Truly a very pretty Reflection on the Honour and Justice of the Nation, as if all the Popish Traitors had been Convicted Blindfold. For he that Prophecies of a thing as a Rarity, supposes no such matter has commonly been before. LONDON: Printed for Richard Janeway, in Queens-Head-Alley in Pater-Noster-Row. 1681.
