d. 123o. The date of this Council rests on the autho- rity of Spondanus ; who tells us, as, indeed, is evident from the acts of the Council itself, that it was held for the instruction of the Dominicans, as to the mode of dealing with heretics. There are twenty-nine canons, from which I will make one or two extracts. They are thus prefaced : — *' Peter, by the grace of God, Archbishop of Nar- bonne, John Archbishop of Aries, Raymond Archbishop of Aix, and the other Prelates, whose seals are aff...ixed to this instrument, to our beloved and faithful sons in Christ, the Brethren of the order of Preachers, appointed Inquisitors of heretics in the aforesaid, and the adjacent, provinces, health in the Lord." The sixth canon is as follows : — " The clergy and people being assembled, you shall cause all [the heretics] publicly to confess and abjure their offences (culpas) and to swear, as is more fully contained in the apostolical mandates, and in the statutes of the Roman Lord ; except where the trifling nature of the offence, and the enormity of the scandal, may suggest some deviation from the strictness of the rule.
