CHAP. VII. The Catalogue of the Deposed.
THE Deposed were Monsieur* 1.1Peter Cahier of the Isle of France, Viel∣bancque in Languedoc, Peter le Roy, otherwise Boilem in Normandy, Godfrey de Vaux in Dolphiny, and John Cornille.
The Provinces shall be advised to beware of a certain pernicious Heretick, called Anthony de L'Escale, who roves up and down scattering his Errors, both by Writings and Discourses.
The Province of Lower Languedoc is charged to convene the next Natio∣nal Synod in the City of Montpellier, the First of May, in the Year 1598.
The Acts were thus Signed, by
Dominick de Losse, Moderator of the Synod.
Vincent, chosen to Collect the Acts of the said Synod.
Notes
* 1.1
Cahier was wheedled off from the Re∣formed Reli∣gion, with the never-performed Promises of being made an Abbot: He was deposed for writing two Books, in which he asserted the Necessity and Lawfulness of Publick Stews and Brothel-Houses, and that Fornication and Adultery were not forbidden in the Seventh Commandment, but only the Sin of Onan. 2. For Magick, which he had practised. This Wretch had one Vertue, he never loved, nor was beloved by the Jesuites: He was once favoured, but after slighted and neglected by the Sorbonists: A most slovenly, nasty Fellow in his Apparel, and way of Living.
