The Council of Aix la Chapelle, in the year 816.

LEwis the Godly having Conven'd a Numerous Council at Aix la Chapelle, in the year 816, * 1.1 caused two Rules to be drawn up there, by Amalarius, out of the Writings of the Holy Fa∣thers, the one for the Canons, and the other for the Canonesses. They were Read and Approv'd in this Council; which order'd, they should be follow'd and practis'd by all Canons and Cano∣nesses. The Emperour confirm'd them with his own Authority, and sent Copies of them to the Bishops, that they might take care to have them put in Execution. I do not here give the Abridgment of those two Rules, because they wholly consist of some Extracts of the Canons of the Councils, and of the Writings of the Latin Fathers.
