The COUNCIL of Aix-la-Chapelle against FELIX.

IN the same Year Charles the Great invited Felix of Urgel to Aix-la Chapelle, promising him, that he should have the liberty to propound to the Bishops, which he would call thither, all * 1.1 the Reasons and Allegations that he could produce to defend his own Sentiment, and that all the Proceedings in the determination of this Question should be managed with full li∣berty: Which was done by the acknowledgment of Felix himself in a Confession of Faith; for after he had alledged the Passages he had, Alcuin answered them, and did so clearly confute his Opinion by formal Passages of St. Cyril, St. Gregory, St. Leo, and other Fathers, and by the Au∣thority of the Synod held at Rome a little before, that Felix did voluntarily abandon his Opinion, to embrace the Doctrine of the Church, and made an Orthodox Confession of Faith: Which was followed by those of his Adherents that were there with him.
