The ordinary Habit of the Grand Master is a kind ofCassock, open before, and tied about him with a Girdle, at which hangs aPurse, alluding to the Charitable ends of their Order;--but 'tis not tobe denied that they have grown very Proud, and Live, many of 'em, in asShameful Luxury as the Prince Bishops of Germany. Over his Cassock theGrand Master wears a Velvet Gown or Cloak when he goes to Church onSolemn Festivals. He is addressed under the Title of Eminence by all theKnights; but his Subjects... of Malta, and the Neighbouring Islands, stylehim Your Highness. As Sovereign, he coins Money, pardons Criminals, andbestows the places of Grand Priors, Bailiffs, &c. ; but in most cases ofimportance is obliged to seek the advice of his Council, so that he isnot wholly Absolute. The Ecclesiastics proper of the Order--for the restare but Military Monks, that do a great deal more Fighting than Praying, and savour much more of the Camp than of the Convent--are Chaplains, Monastic Clerks, and Deacons.
