CRESCONIUS.

CRESCONIUS, an African Bishop, flourished towards the end of the 7th Century. * 1.1 He made a Collection of Canons, in Two parts. The First entituled, An Abridgment of the Canon-Law, Contains the Titles pointing to the matters, together with the Citation of the Canons where they are found. The Second contains the Canons themselves, set down in their full length, in the same order that they are Cited in the Abridgment. This is entituled, An Harmony of the Canons, or, A Book of Canons. The Abridgment was Published [ar Paris] in 1588, by M. Pitthaeus, from a Manuscript of the Church of Troyes, and since that by M. Al∣tasaranus [at Poictou] in 1630, and by F. Chifflet in 1649. M. Justel and Voellus inserted it also with the whole Harmony, in their Bibliotheca Juris Canonici, [or, A Compleat Body of the Canon-Law.]
