ming the "Brides of Christ," are subjected to "indignities" and
cruelty, not tolerated anywhere else.

"ARTICLES OF PIETY;"

OR, INSTRUMENTS OF TORTURE IN ENGLISH CONVENTS.

[Illustration: This engraving is copied from a _Photograph_, Published
by the Society. For a description of these and other "Articles of
Piety," see _Oxford and Roman Railway_. Price 1s.]

Instruments of Torture are _now_ practised upon Nuns in Romish Convents
in _London_ and in all parts of the country.

The Romish "Articles of Piety," named on the next page, were bought at
"Little's Ecclesiastical Warehouse", 20, Cranbourne Street, and at the
Convent of the "Sisters of the Assumption of the Perpetual Adoration of
the Blessed Sacrament," London.

Such Instruments of Torture are fitter for the worshippers of Baal,
than for the worshippers of God; and a person using them upon cattle
would lay himself open to a prosecution by the "Society for Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals." Both the parties who purchased these articles
are intimately known to Mr. Steele, the Secretary of the Protestant
Evangelical Mission and Electoral Union.
