That is to say. By the authority of God the father almighty, and of the blessed Virgin Mary, and of all Saints, we excommunicate, we curse, and commit to the Devil, all the aforesaid malefactors and evil doers. Excommunicate mought they be, cursed and given over to the Devil. Cursed be they in Townes, in Fields, in Ways, in Paths, in Houses, out of Houses, and in all other places, Standing, Lying, Rising, Walking, Running, Watching, Sleeping, Eating, Drinking, and whatsoever thing they do besides. We sequester them from the thresholds and all the goods of the Church and we give them over to the Devil. And let us quench their souls in the pains of hell, as this candle is now quenched and put out, except they amend, and come unto satisfaction.
