The History of Richard Raynal, Solitary

Excerpt

Among other Religious Houses, lately bought back from the Government by their proper owners, was one (whose Order, for selfish reasons, I prefer not to specify), situated in the maze of narrow streets between the Piazza Navona and the Piazza Colonna; this, however, may be said of the Order, that it is one which, although little known in Italy, had several houses in England up to the reign of Henry VIII.  Like so many other Orders at that time, its members moved first to France and then to Italy, where it has survived in penurious dignity ever since.
