We Enjoyn all Physicians, and in their absence all Apothecaries and Chirurgeons, who shall be called to Visit Sick Persons, that they give Notice there∣of to the Curates of the Parishes in which they shall dwell, so soon as they shall judge that their Patient is
in danger, unless they see they have been otherwise sent for, that the Sick Person, and particularly Our said Subjects newly Reunited to the Church, may from them receive the Spiritual Advice and Consolation they shall stand in need of, as also the Benefit of the Sacra∣ments when they shall find them in a Condition to re∣ceive them: We Command the Relations, Servants, and other Persons who are near the said Sick Persons, to in∣troduce them, the said Curates, and to receive them with the Respect suitable to their Character. And it is Our Will, That such Physicians, Apothecaries and Chi∣rurgeons as shall neglect to Execute Our Orders to them in this behalf, shall be punished by Fines; and in case of a second Default, by suspending them from their Practice, as the Nature of the Case shall require.
