1In the counsel of Laodicenum it is written: It is not mete for Christian men to dance at their marriages. Let them dine & sup gravely & moderately, giving thanks unto God for the benefit of marriages. In the same council also it is had: Let not the Clergy come unto spectacles either on the stage, or at weddings. They may in deed be present at marriages: but after there come in [Greek or Hebrew], that is, singers & players on instruments, which serve for dancings, let them rise & go their ways, least by their presence they should seem to allow that wantonness. In the counsel of Ilerdenum, 2which was had under Symmachus, & Hormisda Popes, and Theodoricus the king, the same thing is decreed, namely ye Christians should not dance at marriages. But in the counsel of Altisiodorenum, which was under the Pope Deus dedit, 3this seemeth to be contracted unto the Clergy. For there it is prohibited, that any of the Clergy should at a feast either sing or dance, as though it were in a sort lawful for other.
