793:1
Gregorius a Lucido episcopo Leontino. Filius noster Joannes, abbas, presbyterurn sibi in mona£ terio suo ex congregatione eadem petit ordinandum. Ideoque fraternitatem vestram praesenti auctoritate duximus adhortandam, quatenus viruin quem vobis de congregatione sua b ad ordinationem presbyterii obtulerit consecrandum, de eo, sicut est consuetudinis, quaeque sunt discutienda subtiliter perquiratis; et si nihil in eo repertum fuerit quod ei possit obviare, canonice, sicut moris est, consecretis. Nibil ei aliud privilegii concedentes, nisi ut in congregatione sua 1212 quoties opportunum fuerit, sacra missarum debeat tantummodo celebrare mysteria. « Mense Augusto, indictione 5.
Gregory to Lucidus, bishop of Lentini. Our son John, an abbot, asks that a presbyter be ordained for him in his own monastery from that same community. And therefore we have thought fit to exhort your Fraternity by this present authority, that the man whom he shall have offered to you from his community for consecration to the priesthood, you diligently inquire into concerning him, as is the custom, into whatever things ought to be examined; and if nothing shall have been found in him which can stand in his way, you consecrate him canonically, as is the custom, granting him no other privilege except that in his own community, as often as it shall be opportune, he ought only to celebrate the sacred mysteries of the Masses. In the month of August, indiction 5.
額我略致倫蒂尼主教路奇多斯。我們的兒子、院長若望,請求從那同一團體中,為他自己隱修院按立一位司鐸。因此,我們認為當以此權柄勸勉你弟兄:他從其團體中呈獻給你、要祝聖為司鐸之職的那人,你當照慣例,就一切應審查之事,仔細地查究他;若在他身上查不出任何可成為阻礙之事,就照規例、依慣常方式將他祝聖,不賜他別的特權,只賜他一項:即在他自己的團體中,每逢適宜之時,唯獨可舉行彌撒的神聖奧蹟。時值八月,第五個小紀。
