106. [107.] They also do not cease still to send out emissaries into the Protestant Christian domain in order to seduce them as they did in the world. They are monks who yearn only for material gain, and who aspire to supreme, even Divine, power; and they are so mentally barren as to know nothing of Divine truth, but yet prevail over others by their guile. Nevertheless they are searched out, and having been found are miserably punished.
