Doctor, Doctor, you know not the gentry you have to deal with! 'We must hope, said Dr. Masham. 'To-morrow we must organise some general search. 'I fear it will be of no use, said the Squire, replenishing his pipe. 'These Jesuits are deep fellows. 'But we are not sure about the Jesuits, Squire. 'I am, said the Squire; 'the case is clear, and the sooner you break it to his mother the better.
Kings respect, and priests organise, the popular folly; and the wise men have to sit aloft and nod to each other across the centuries. There is a freemasonry amongst them, and they have their shibboleths and dark sayings, to protect them against priests and mobs. Perhaps the story of Balaam is a subtle anticipation of Lord Bacon's dictum. It was the ass that first saw the angel.
They were not the everyday boys who thus combined, but a sort of child less common, yet not uncommon. Such lads scent one another out by parity of taste and care less for gregarious games than isolated or lonely adventures.

Much of its power is due to the new springs of real spiritual life and the new forms of real usefulness and charity that grew out of its highly developed sacerdotal system and out of the semi-monastic confraternities which at once foster and encourage and organise an active zeal.
A short time previously a deputation of the foremost landed men and representative bodies of Cork had saved Ireland from the importation of Canadian cattle into Britain. It was decided to organise now a still more powerful deputation from the province of Munster to warn the Government of the fatal effects of the proposed Birrell Bill.
But would ten days allow us time to organise the 'events, hire a band, issue the necessary posters, etc.? I assured him that, hard as it might drive us, the thing could be done. 'I shall feel vastly more confident, he was good enough to say, 'if you will consent to join our Committee. And I accepted, on the prospect of seeing some fun. But ah! could I have foreseen what fun!
In the winter of 1790-1791 they began to organise themselves on the Rhine, and to negotiate with some of the smaller Powers, especially Sardinia, for an invasion. The later arrivals were not welcomed, for they were men who had accepted constitutional government.
