De The Franciscans (Order of Friars Minor Conventual) ⌊fratribusThe Franciscans (Order of Friars Minor Conventual) ⌋ excusationem Paternitatis Vestrae accepimus. De qua certo persuasum id habemus, quod nihil indignum faciat episcopo Christiano. Neque cuiusquam delationes tantum apud nos ponderis habere poterint, ut nostram de Paternitate Vestra in optimam partem opinionem imminuant. Probatur id nobis, quod tanta cura providet, ut ne res monasterii alienentur, ut ne solitudo sit in ecclesiis, ut ne fratres ipsi cuncto The Franciscans (Order of Friars Minor Conventual) ⌊ordiniThe Franciscans (Order of Friars Minor Conventual) ⌋ invidiam conflent. Sed si Paternitas Vestra per eos, quorum interest magis, praelatos eorum eadem ista provideri posse putaverit, recte fecerit iudicio nostro, si non prius aliquid ipsa de fratribus his statuerit, quam ad patres sive praelatos eorum retulerit.
