[After Canon XIV.]

Canon XVIII.  (Of the Latin.)

Bishop Januarius said:  Let your holiness also decree this, that no bishop be allowed to try to gain for himself a minister in the church of a bishop of another city and ordain him to one of his own parishes.

All said:  Such is our pleasure, inasmuch as discord is apt to spring from contentions in this matter, and therefore the sentence of us all forbids anyone to presume to do

Note.

Latin canon xviij.]
