CONFORMITY.
In the Antient Councils, * 1.1 was read and confirm'd the Confessions of Faith which was believed in the Church, so it was practis'd by the Universal Council of Constanti∣nople in regard of the Confession of Faith of the Council of Nice; the same Symbol was read in the first Action of the first Council of Ephesus, and the Council of Calcedon renews and confirms the Symbols of Nice, and Constan∣tinople, the Copies whereof was produced, and moreover approved all that was establish'd at Ephesus against Ne∣storius, in the year 431.
As for Reading the Canons which contained the Disci∣pline of those times, it may plainly be collected from the first Cannon of the Council of Calcedon, which appoints to observe all the Cannons which had been formerly made, * 1.2 and the 4th. of the 4th. of Toledo, Anno Dom. 633. do's formally command the reading of them. See what I have writ on the IX. Article of the First Chapter.
