"May the Holy Mary, ever Virgin and Mother of God, curse him! May all
the Angels, Principalities, and Powers, and all heavenly Armies curse
him! May the glorious band of the Patriarchs and Prophets curse him!
"May St. John the Precursor, and St John the Baptist, and St. Peter
and St Paul, and St. Andrew and all other of Christ's Apostles together
curse him and may the rest of the Disciples and Evangelists who by their
preaching converted the universe, and the Holy and wonderful company
of Martyrs and Confessors, who by their works are found pleasing to God
Almighty; may the holy choir of the Holy Virgins, who for the honor of
God have despised the things of the world, damn him. May all the Saints
from the beginning of the world to everlasting ages, who are found to be
beloved of God, damn him!
"May he be damned wherever he be, whether in the house or in the alley,
in the woods or in the water, or in the church! May he be cursed in
living or dying!
"May he be cursed in eating and drinking, in being hungry, in being
thirsty, in fasting and sleeping, in slumbering, and in sitting, in
living, in working, in resting, and in blood letting! May he be cursed
in all the faculties of his body!
"May he be cursed inwardly and outwardly. May he be cursed in his hair;
cursed be he in his brains, and his vertex, in his temples, in his
eyebrows, in his cheeks, in his jaw-bones, in his nostrils, in his
teeth, and grinders, in his lips, in his shoulders, in his arms, and in
his fingers.
"May he be damned in his mouth, in his breast, in his heart, and
purtenances, down to the very stomach!
"May he be cursed in his reins and groins, in his thighs and his hips,
and in his knees, his legs and his feet, and his toe-nails!
"May he be cursed in all his joints, and articulation of the members;
from the crown of the head to the soles of his feet, may there be no
soundness!
"May the Son of the living God, with all the glory of his majesty, CURSE
HIM! And may Heaven, with all the powers that move therein, rise
up against him, and curse and damn him; unless he repent and make
satisfaction! Amen! So be it. Be it so. Amen."
Such was the CURSE pronounced on the Rev. Wm. Hogan, (a converted Roman
Catholic priest) a few years since, in Philadelphia.
As a further proof of the cruel, persecuting spirit of Catholicism, let
us glance at a few extracts from their own publications.
"Children," they say, "are obliged to denounce their parents or
relations who are guilty of heresy; ALTHOUGH THEY KNOW THAT THEY WILL BE
BURNT. They may refuse them all nourishment, and permit them to die
with hunger; or they may KILL THEM as enemies, who violate the rights of
humanity.--Escobar, Theolg. Moral, vol. 4, lib. 31, sec. 2, precept 4,
prop. 5, p. 239."
"A man condemned by the Pope, may be killed wherever he is found."--La
Croix, vol. 1, p. 294.
