Of the Frierly order of Maries seruantes.
Pope Benet bearing it swing, Philip devised the order of Friars which are called the servants of our Lady. He raised this order under the rule of Saint Austen, with even like words and fashion, making difference of it with certain ordinances of the Friars of our Lady which order afterward was confirmed by three bishops of Rome, ⟨image 101⟩namely, Benet the xi. Boniface the eight and Urban the sixth, and is reckoned among the begging orders, At the the last it was wholly sanctified and hallowed of Pope Innocentius the eight and delivered of the evil will, that some cloisterers did owe them. Their garments are like our Ladies brethren. This order began in the year of our Lord .1304. Chron. Lib. Germ.
