A Copy of another Imperial Edict which the Emmperours published again, to de∣clare, that this their Beneficence was granted only to the Catholick Church.
God save You, dearest Anulinus! This is the manner of Our Goodness, We desire, that those things which appertain to anothers right should not only not be infested with inquietude, but should also be restored, dearest Anulinus! Wherefore our plea∣sure is, that, as soon as you receive this our Rescript, if any of those [estates] (which did belong to the Catholick Church of the Christians, in all our Cities, or in other places,) are now detained by the e 1.1Decurions, or by any other Persons, you cause them to be forthwith restored to their [respective] Churches: In as much as we have re∣solved that those [estates] which the said Churches have formerly possessed, shall re∣vert and become their right again. Since therefore your Devotedness understandeth that this is the most evident purport of our Com∣mand, take care, that all [estates] which did formerly belong to the right of the said Churches, (whether gardens, houses, or whatever else) be immediately restored to them again: whereby we may be informed that you have with all diligence and accuracy obeyed this our Command. Farewell, dearest, and Our most beloved Anulinus.
