Trident. De Pcenitentia, cap. 7, 8. 252 ENFORCED CONFESSION. canon.^ Even these seem to have fallen into desnetucle, for, in 1587, the Congregation of the Council of Trent felt called upon to decide that a bishop can excommunicate those who neglect the precept of Easter confession and can then remove the excommunication in return for "almsgiving."^ In the Spanish colonies, however, the new converts were treated with less indulgence, and the flagging zeal of the Indians was encouraged by St. Tor...ibio, Archbishop of Lima, with the gentle stimulus of thirty stripes for the omission of Easter confession — a provision, it is true, from which the women and caciques were ex- empted, who were to be coerced in some other manner not specified. It is perhaps not surprising that there was little fervor among the converts, for the Indies were a sort of ecclesiastical penal colony to which were sent troublesome clerics who could not be endured at home, and, in a council shortly before, St. Toribio had deplored the degradation to which the sacrament of penitence had been allowed to sink.
