Among the Dead, there was a Distinguished Frenchman, who had an Invulnerating, and Immortalizing Amulet about his Neck; which I now have in my Hand at the Time of my Writing. It was a Little Pouch, in which I find some small, Je ne scay quoy 's, of the Popish Leipsanolatry. But with them, a Schedule, on which there is drawn with Red Ink, the Pretended Figure of the Wound made by the Spear in the side of our Dying Saviour, with the Dimensions of it. Over it is Written, La Mesure de la Sainte Play […] Sacree cote de notre Seigneur Jesus Chrit. Under […] Salve Latus gloriosum Domini nosti Jesu Christi, […] nobis Lancea Militis Perforatum. On the Backside […] the Schedule is Written; Tous Ceux qui Portent […] foy et devotion, la Mesure de la Sainte Play du Sac Coté de nostre Seiqueur J. C'. Sont Preservez de beaucoup des Maux; Particulierement du Feu, de l'eau, de la peste, de les Tempesles, de toutes Blessures, et des Demons. [But, it seems, not from English Bullets!]
