Qvi vero non been custodit Sacramentū, ita quod mus, vel aliud animal comederit, quadraginta diebus poeniteat. Qui autē perdiderit il lud, vel pars eius ce•iderit, & nō fuerit inuenia, triginta diebus poeniteat. Eadem poenitentia videtur dignus Sacerdos, per cuius negligentiam putres•unt hostiae consecratae dictis autem diebus, poenitens debet jeiuna•e, ⟨p. 55⟩& à communion, & celebration, abstinere, Pensatis tamen circunstantijs delicti & personae, potest minui vel augeri poenitentia praedicta, secundum arbitrium discreti confessoris. Non tamen tenendum est, quod ubicunque inueniuntur species Sacramenti integrae, reverenter sumē dae sunt. Quod si sine periculo fieri nō potest, sunt tunc pro reliquijs reseruandae, And a whatsoever priest, shall not safely keep the Sacrament from being eaten up, either by mice or any other such vermin, shall do penance forty days. b But if any lose it, c or if any on piece thereof fall to the ground, and the same not possibly to be found again: let him do penance thirty days. And it is also thought good, that that priest, through whose negligence the consecrated hosts shall putrefy is worthy the like penance! And such a penitent, ought to fast and abstain from the Communion, ⟨p. 55⟩and saying of Mass, during all those days. Nevertheless in weighing the circumstances of the offence, and person, the aforesaid penance ought, according to the will of the discreet confessor, be either augmented or diminished. Nevertheless, this is to be holden for a sure rule that wheresoever all the whole species of the Sacrament are to be found, they are reverently to be received. But if it cannot be done without peril, then they are to be reserved for relics.
