ry of the Christian Religion and Church," period 6, sec. 1 (1854, 5-vol. ed., tr. by Torrey, Vol. V, pp. 94-101). Page 128. INDULGENCES.--See note for page 59. Page 234. JESUITISM.--For a statement concerning the origin, the principles, and the purposes of the "Society of Jesus," as outlined by members of this Order, see a work entitled "Concerning Jesuits," edited by the Rev. John Gerard, S. J., and published in London, 1902, by the Catholic Truth Society. In this work it is said that "the mainspring of the whole organization of the Society is a spirit of entire obedience: 'Let each one,' writes St. Ignatius, 'persuade himself that those who live under obedience ought to allow themselves to be moved and directed by divine Providence through their superiors, just as though they were a dead body, which allows itself to be carried anywhere and to be treated in any manner whatever, or as an old man's staff, which serves him who holds it in his hand in whatsoever way he will.' "This absolute submission is ennobled by its motive, and should be, continues the ... founder, 'prompt, joyous, and persevering; ... the obedient religious accomplishes joyfully that which his superiors have confided to him for the general good, assured that thereby he corresponds truly with the divine will.'
