Pamphlet. iv, [5]-40 p.; 22 cm. An imagined dialogue between a learned cardinal, followed by other clergy, with Pope Innocent X (Giambattista Pamfili) 1644-55, on a Huguenot enthusiast who `"commenced at the second verse of the thirteenth chapter of the Acts of the Apostles, in a new edition of the French Bible, translated by the doctors of Louvain, which was printed at Paris in the year 1646; `in which,' added the disputant, `may be seen and read at this present moment, in large and beautiful characters, the blessed word MASS; and it appears to me that the apostles pronounced it, for the text goes on to say that `they said Mass to the Lord," and O most holy father---" Here the pope interrupted the cardinal, saying, "He could perceive nothing unreasonable or contrary to the canons of the Church in what the preacher set forth, in defence of the orthodoxy of the Mass;--but," said his holiness, "proceed, for I feel impatient to hear the whole of the disputation."'
