CONFORMITY.

The Church being the Spouse of Jesus Christ, and by consequence, the Mistress of all the Power, and of all the Ecclesiastical Authority which resides in Her as in its Fountain; and in the Consistories, as in Societies, which she establishes for the use and exercise of this Power; She may then have authoris'd the Ecclesiastical Senate and the Consistory, to admit into its Body the Father and Son, or two Brothers, provided they are agreeable to the Church, which has in general given this Power to the Consistory.
