Letter 3,32 - to Honoratus, archdeacon of the church of Salona. April 593
"We therefore consider it necessary to confirm once again with these present words those same orders, coming as much from our predecessor as from us, which we sent there some time ago for your absolution, as has been stated. Wherefore absolving you more fully from all charges brought against you, we want you to remain in the rank of your order without any altercation, so that an inquiry moved against you by the aforesaid man [i.e. his opponent, his late bishop Natalis] may not prejudice you at all.
