23.2.7

But, being desierous to disolue the Schoole, and to withdrawe the youthes without Noyse, hee bad them call the Jesuittes to the woemens doore, wher by a lady he receiued the order ; and without euer taking any notice since of any thing, his kinsmen recalld, who are now absolute Moores, without any last of their first fayth ; and so the fruict of all these hopes are vanished. And I cannot fynd by good search that ther is one Christian really and orderly conuerted. Nor makes the profession, except some few that haue been Babtised for mony, and are maynteyned by the Jesuittes ; of which sort ther would bee more, but that they find the deceipt, and cannot endure the burthen. This is the truth of all their bragg and labor, and the full groweth of their Church here.
