1Pope Benet the twelfth after a certain disputation had among learned men, whether the souls of the faithful have the fruition of Gods Majesty in heaven before the day of judgement or no: made this resolute determination, that the souls of the faithful Christians, after their departure have nothing in them worthy to be purged, but all pure, clean, and without sin: and that therefore so soon as they depart hence, they go straightways unto Heaven, & behold the face of God. The aforesaid Pope also commanded, that no man should either teach or believe the contrary under pain of the great curse. If any ⟨p. 216⟩man did, he should be reputed and taken for an heretic. In the year of our Lord. 1317. Joan. Laziard.
