In an old written book I find thus written. The Articles of the general sentence must be read four times in the year openly in the Church before all the people,1 yea and that in the mother tong: that is to say, the first sunday of Advent, and the first sunday of Lent, & Trinity sunday, and on the sunday, which is within the Octaves of the Assumption of the blessed virgin Mary. And when the Priest hath read the Articles of the general sentence, let him with all hast put out the candle, which he holdeth in his hand, and with great violence cast it away from him, saying: Auctoritate dei patris omnipotentis, 2& filij, & Spiritus sancti, & sanctae Mariae Matris domini nostri Jesu Christi, & sanctorū Apostolorum Petri & Pauli, & omnium Sanctorum, & sanctorum Canonum, & nostri Ministerij, excommunicamus, anathematizamus, & a Sacramentis sanctae ecclesiae, & a communion corporis & sanguinis domini nostri ⟨p. 243⟩Jesu Christi sequestramus omnes illos, vel illas, qui praenominati sunt. Et sicut extinguitur haec lucerna hominum: ita extinguatur lumen eorum in secula seculorum, nisi ad emendationem & satisfactionem venerint. Fiat, fiat. Amen.
