### [366.2.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.366.2.3)

You have just seen, gentlemen, how the Lord Bishop, or, rather, the reverend Jesuit fathers, who have fabricated the said Pastoral, make a wrong use of the Supreme Pontiff's authority, and attempt to discredit the poor Capuchin fathers. Observe now a still more unworthy item in the second quotation. It is from a recommendation made by the Sacred Congregation to Vicars Apostolic for suspending the execution \[299\] of what it has ordered, when they know as an absolute certainty that they are unable to execute those orders without creating a scandal, tumult, or disturbance of men's minds. Here are the very words, which I have taken out of the Pastoral itself. I pray you to weigh them well ; for if you do that, gentlemen, you will see that it is without any reason that they allege this authority of the Sacred Congregation. Nor could they raise a suggestion more harmful to the Capuchin fathers than this attempt to make the court at Rome believe that a tumult and a sedition would have arisen among the Christians, if they (the Capuchins) had obtained possession of their former mission to the Malabãrls.
