Be humble, finally, and submit yourself to obedience, and hasten to come to us without any excuse, so that, once the truth has inquired into and discovered, whatever is just and canonical may be decided, acoording to the fear of God. For rest assured that we shall preserve justice for you, and the statutes of canon law, and shall impose an end to your case, favorable to justice, as revealed by the Lord, the author of truth.
