When they turned themselves in vain to piety and prayers, in their faith which they had within themselves in the world, they turned to and accepted everything in religion that others wanted [them to accept], since in their own hearts they make nothing of religion.

Hence there is, there, a very numerous crew from various nations, who are all their servants. That external Catholic religion is also [there]; and is for such ones.
