The political mischiefs of popery; or, Arguments demonstrating, I. That the Romish religion ruins all those countries where it is the established religion. II. That it occasions the loss of above two hundred millions of livres, or sixteen millions of sterling, per annum, to France in particular. III. That, if popery were abolished in France, that kingdom would become incomparably more rich and populous; and the king's revenues would advance above one hundred millions of livres, or eight millions sterling, per annum. IV. That it is impossible that France should ever be re-established, or flourish, whilst popery is its national religion. By a person of quality, a native of France. Reprinted from the edition of 1698, and edited by Josephus Tela [pseud.].
