Angels be condemned to Eternal punishments with all his Partners joyn'd with him in the same Conspiracy that the same punishment of final perdition may reach all that are Complices and Partakers of the same guilt Wherefore if this thrice repeated Sentence be according to the mind of all you that are here present confirm the same with your Unanimous Voices Accordingly the whole Body of the Clergy and People have said and declared Whosoever shall presume to do any thing against this your Decree Let him be Anathema Maranatha that is accurst and damn'd at the coming of our Lord and have his share and lot with Judas Iscariot both they and their Complices Amen In consideration therefore of the Premises we Priests do admonish and warn the Holy Church of Christ and all the People to take care that this tremendous and so oft repeated Sentence of Excommunication may not make any of us obnoxious to present and eternal condemnation but that keeping the Faith we have sworn to our most Glorious Lord King Sisenandus and serving him with sincere Loyalty we may not only incline the Divine Clemency and Goodness towards us but may also deserve the favour of our Gracious Prince Amen We also with the Humility that becomes us do entreat thee These qualifications of a good Prince are most of them taken out of St. Austin Lib. 5. de Civitate Dei. O King here present amongst us and all Princes thy Successors for time to come that behaving your selves with all moderation and gentleness towards your Subjects you may in Righteousness and Godliness rule the People by God committed to your charge that so you may be able to give a good account of your Stewardship to Christ who has constituted you governing your Subjects with humbleness of Heart and being found in a constant endeavour of procuring their Good and Welfare That none of you alone may undertake to judge of Capital Matters or any Mans Estate but that by publick consent of the Judges and other Magistrates and in an open Tryal the Guilt of Delinquents may be made apparent observing a merciful disposition towards those who have offended that your indulgence and mercy in sparing may appear as well as your Severity in punishing So that all things by the assistance of God being administred and preserv'd by you with a godly Rule and Government you Kings may have reason to rejoyce in your People as well as your People in you and that God may rejoyce in you both And as to what belongs to all future Kings we pronounce this our Sentence that in case any of them without being restrain'd by the Reverence due to the Laws shall by a proud Lordliness being puft up with the Royal dignity by injustice violence and oppression exercise a tyranical and cruel Power against his Subjects let all such be condemn'd and anathematiz'd by Christ and be separated from God and subjected to his Judgments for that he presumed to act wickedly and to endeavour the hurt and ruine of the Kingdom And as for Suintilanus who fearing the punishment of his Crimes has deserted the Kingdom depriving himself thereby of the Royal Power we with the Consent of the People have Decreed that neither he nor his Wife nor Children shall ever be received by us into our Society because of the wickedness they are guilty of or restored to those Honours from whence they have been so justly cast down and that they shall not only for ever stand deprived of the Prerogatives of the Royal Dignity but also forfeit all the Wealth they have got by oppressing the miserable People except only that which shall be allow'd them by the goodness of our Gracious Prince The same Sentence we likewise pronounce against Geilanus the said Suintilanus his Brother as in Blood so in Crimes and Wickedness who was perfidious to his own Brother and has broken his Faith promised to our most glorious Lord wherefore we also cast him and his Wife and banish them from our Society together with those before-mentioned and exclude them from the Common-wealth of our Nation and that they shall not be restored to the Possessions which by wickedness they had gotten except only what they may obtain from the Bounty of our most Gracious Prince who as he is ready to enrich those that are good with bountiful Rewards so neither does he altogether exclude those that are wicked from his diffusive Beneficence Now Glory and Honour be ascribed to our Almighty God in whose name we are here Assembled and may Happiness Peace and a long continued Reign be the Portion of our most Pious Lord and Lover of Christ King Sisenand whose Piety and Devotion has ca●l to this Assembly to establish and enact this wholesome Decree May the Glory of Christ strengthen and establish his Kingdom and the Gothick Nation in the Catholick Faith and multiply his Years and Virtues preserving him to the highest old age and may he after the Glory of his Reign here on Earth pass over to the Eternal Kingdom in Heaven that he may Reign there without end who here has Reigned well and happily by the grace and help of him who is King of kings and Lord of lords with the Father and Holy Spirit for ever and ever Amen The things above written being thus decreed and determined by us with the Consent and Approbation of our most Religious Prince we also have engaged never to infringe any Point thereof but exactly to keep and observe the same and because these things do greatly concern the good of the Church and the welfare of Souls we have thought good to strengthen and confirm the same by our particular Subscription that they may stand ratified for ever And accordingly was subscribed by all of them Concilii Toletani IV.
