Poenitentiale

Governed by translation-style.md Pattern 7. The English renders what Migne prints (PL 89, cols 401A–436A), which he reprints from Mansi, who took it from Wilkins's Concilia Magnae Britanniae. Migne's first note (restored at the plate, chunk 0000) records that the manuscripts present these chapters as ones Egbert transtulit ex Latino in Anglicum. The Latin is therefore an early-modern Latin version of the Old English penitential, and it carries English idiom in Latin dress. The English translates that Latin. It does not reconstruct the Old English, and it does not smooth an Anglicism into classical usage. Parallels in the Theodoran tradition are noted in the stint files where they explain a hard sentence, and are never used to emend.

Merge, chunks 0000–0010 (2026-09-19)

This section is a merge layer. The three stints' own records stay beside it, unedited: cruces-0000.md (cols 0401A–0414D), cruces-0004.md (0415A–0428B) and cruces-0008.md (0428C–0436A). What follows is only what had to be settled across them.

Standing decisions for this work

• Vocabulary held across the three stints (the table in data/briefs/8382-STINT-COMMON.md §8), checked at merge by count: hiems 36× in the Latin, "winter(s)" 36× in the English, kept apart from annus "year"; sacerdos "priest" and presbyter "presbyter" kept apart; confessarius "confessor"; quadragesima "Lent". Heads: "CHAPTER ONE." for CAPUT PRIMUM, roman numerals after; "BOOK TWO / THREE / FOUR"; the Book Four head is identical in 0007, 0008 and 0009.
• suspend- is "suspended" throughout. 0405D suspendantur, 0410B suspenditur, 0417A suspendendi sunt and 0431A suspendatur. Stint B wrote "hanged" at 0417A. It was conformed at merge: the Latin verb is the same in all four places, the context never settles whether bodily hanging or suspension from communion is meant (at 0417A the adult offender gets fifteen years' fast, and hanging the "young and imprudent" for the same act is the less likely sense), and "suspended" is the literal word that asserts neither. 0406A quasi Christum suspenderet stays "as if he were hanging Christ" (crucifying): there the sense is not open.
• uxor is "wife" everywhere, including places where the sense is plainly "woman" (Old English wīf covers both). Explained once in cruces-0004.md.

Migne's foot notes — seven, all recovered from the plate

Corpus Corporum carries none of them. All seven are letter-keyed prose, and each stands as [cn:] in the Latin with a translated [nt:] twin in the English (data/plate-notes/8382.tsv).

• 0401A (the title, Wilkins on the manuscripts' title) · 0409C (In domo vertendum est, Wilkins) · 0431 (inside the head, Mansi's cross-reference) · 0433A (andronas) · 0433D · 0434B, all found at prep's foot sweep.
• 0432A, found by stint C, not by prep: Mallem legere : quoniam illorum matri convenit huic se opponere. WILKINS. It is Wilkins's answer to the sentence at 0432A that does not construe (quoniam mater illorum contigit ea, quae haec opponit). It is set full width in the MIDDLE of p. 222, under the Book Four section and above the rule that opens Ex ejusdem Egberti. Prep's sweep cropped each page from 55% of its height down and never saw it. That is the mid-page-at-a-division case CLAUDE.md warns about, and the reason stints still watch the foot of every page. Confirmed at the plate by the orchestrator and injected.
• The 0409C note prints vertendum est, WILKINS. with a comma (stint A). The TSV was corrected.

TEI patches — 20 from the stints, applied

data/tei-patches/8382.json now carries the title banner plus 20 plate-read corrections (A 10, B 8, C 2), each a place where the plate is sound and our digitization is not. The English already followed the plate at every site. Re-chunked, 7/7 notes placed, verify-english OK. The otiosa → otioso find needed the XML line break (De omni verbo otiosa\nquod).

Markers fired (5), every one on a column read at the plate

• [cj:] 0411A: neque quas accipiter momorderit … non sunt edendae. The double negative makes hawk-bitten animals edible. Both negatives are carried (Pattern 18 shape, cf. 8195 @1250B).
• [var:] 0411B Acts 15:29 · 0433B Matt 25:43 · 0433C Matt 18:17 · 0434D Matt 12:36.
• No [sic:] anywhere. There is one witness on disk, and nothing single-letter stands on one witness. Single-witness candidates are logged in the stint files: 0409C fre-|mentum, 0416C Do eo, 0410B eum … nequeunt, 0432 Domiuo / stiοendio / subjaccbit, and others.

Address findings (logged, not corrected)

Words attributed to Salvator that are Ezekiel (two sites in Book I part two, cruces-0000.md; 0424B–C, stint B) and Leviticus (0421C, Estote sancti); Migne's (Matth. I) for Matt 12:36 (0434D). The work quotes from memory through an Old English intermediary, so most of its "quotations" are paraphrase and carry no [var:].

Blind read (three Opus readers, 2026-09-19): 0 polarity sites, 4 grammar fixes applied

Readers worked without the cruces (reports data/briefs/8382-BLIND-READ-R1..R3.md). Every tariff, numeral, list and negative in all eleven chunks was checked against the Latin, and all hold. Applied:

• 0417D, Book II cap. XII head: rebus suis eam spoliare is now "despoil her of her things"; it was "with his things" (R2; with spoliare the ablative is what she is stripped of).
• 0429B: et ipsi remissionem apud Deum obtinere is now "and obtain remission for him with God"; it was "and themselves obtain remission" (R3; the list is of remissions for the penitent).
• 0434B cap. XXXII: the English now supplies the subject "he ought to be excommunicated", which the Latin carries over from si quis (R3).
• 0434D: pertimescat governs assistere: "let him greatly fear to stand before the tribunal of the strict judge, to render an account for these" (R3).

Logged, not changed:

• 0409B cap. XXXII, Si quis praemium aliquod magnum saltem diabolis immolet, jejunet per annum; si aliquid magnum sacrificet, jejunet decem hiemes. As printed, the two tiers do not contrast: "great" earns one year and "great" earns ten winters. Theodore's parallel (in minimis a year, in magnis ten) and the saltem both point to "small" in the first tier (R1). No [cj:]: the reading rests on an outside text, not on the printed context alone. Rendered as printed.
• 0406D haereditatis ejus is rendered "her inheritance", an ordinary disambiguation (R1). 0423A animae suae commodum is rendered "their soul", given this Latin's loose suus (R2). 0426A duobus diebus Mercurii et Veneris is rendered "two days, Wednesday and Friday"; the tariff pattern hints at "two [years]", but that word is not printed (R2).

Plate: archive PDF pp. 207–213, every column read (data/briefs/8382-PLATE-READS-0000.json). There is only one witness, so no [sic:] is fired on anything below. Two markers are fired, both on columns read at the plate: one [var:] (0411B) and one [cj:] (0411A). No [ed:] or [d:]. Where the plate and the TEI differ and the plate is sound, the English follows the plate (data/briefs/8382-PENDING-TEI-PATCHES-0000.md, ten sites).

Standing decisions for this range

• The title banner is rendered as the brief gives it: "THE PENITENTIAL OF SAINT EGBERT, ARCHBISHOP OF YORK". English word order puts the [nt:] after "YORK", which is the English equivalent of the plate position between ARCHIEPISCOPI and POENITENTIALE. The note is translated in full. The locator tom. I Conc. Britan. is kept as printed, and Egbert's name keeps its Old English spelling Egcbyrhtus in the quoted colophon.
• hiems = "winter" and annus = "year", kept apart throughout. Inside a single canon this range shifts from one to the other (IV: tres hiemes … septem annos; XXII: tres annos … quinque hiemes; XXXI: quindecim hiemes … septem annos). Those shifts are printed and are carried.
• sacerdos = "priest", presbyter = "presbyter", per the table, even where one canon moves between them (CAPUT I head presbyteri, body sacerdoti; CAPUT VI head presbytero, body sacerdos).
• ab albo abstine (0401B) = "abstain from white food". As the table directs, this is the one crux on it: "white" food is dairy produce and eggs, the Lenten abstinence. It is rendered literally.
• quadragesima = "Lent", and tria jejunia / tria jejunia legalia = "three fasts" / "three lawful fasts". CAPUT XXXVII (0410D–0411A) defines the three lawful fasts: forty days before Easter, forty before Christmas, and forty after Pentecost. That is why 0402C can say in tribus illis quadragesimis.
• serva = "bondwoman"; verna = "bondmaid"; servus = "slave".
• rem habere cum = "have dealings with" (the sexual euphemism is kept as a euphemism, because the Latin keeps it). coire = "lie with" / "couple", and fornicari = "fornicate".
• poeniteat ejus (0404A) = "let him repent of it", kept distinct from poenitentiam agat, "let him do penance".
• Theodorius (0411C) is printed so here, against Theodorus at 0401C. Authorities are rendered as printed, so the English reads "Theodore" at 0401C and "Theodorius" at 0411C. Dyonisii in the head of XLI is an attested spelling (Pattern 9) and is rendered "Dionysius".
• Heads. CAPUT PRIMUM = "CHAPTER ONE." (matching stint B); LIBRI PRIMI PARS PRIMA / ALTERA = "THE FIRST / SECOND PART OF THE FIRST BOOK." Migne's parentheses in heads, (quomodo) and (vitae), are kept.

Foot notes (Migne's recovered apparatus)

• Title banner, p. 207 foot (a): translated as [nt: …] at the banner. The note says the capitula were "translated from Latin into English" by Egbert. That is the evidence behind the common brief's warning that this Latin carries English idiom.
• 0409C (a), In domo vertendum est. WILKINS.: translated as [nt: It is to be rendered in domo, "in the house." Wilkins.]. The running text still translates in loco as printed ("in the place"). ⚑ The plate sets a COMMA before WILKINS (vertendum est, WILKINS.), where our recovered [cn:] has a full stop. This concerns the Latin-only note text in data/plate-notes/8382.tsv. It is not mine to edit, so it is reported for whoever maintains that file.

Cruces

Chunk 0000

• 0401A coram ipso se extendat: "stretch himself out before him". This is prostration. ipso has no expressed antecedent: the priest is named only in the next clause. Rendered literally.
• 0401A Num te poenitet: num normally expects a "no" answer. English cannot carry that without supplying a negative the Latin does not print. So the English asks "Dost thou repent …?", and no "not" is added (7a).
• 0401B et mihi concedat quod debeo: "and grant me what I ought". Rendered literally. The confessor prays for his own right performance.
• 0402A duodecim quadragesimae dies, qui quovis anno occurrunt: "the twelve days of Lent, which occur in every year". Twelve fixed fast-days a year are probably the Ember days (four seasons × three days), but the Latin says quadragesimae, and the English says "Lent". Plate quovis; TEI quovit (patch filed).
• 0402A concubitu cum virgine: "lying with a virgin", among the vices to avoid, as printed.
• 0402A biloquio: "double speech", i.e. being two-tongued.
• 0401C licet studio adulterium non committant: "although they do not commit adultery of set purpose". The concession does not attach well to "discretion befits all men". Rendered literally, with the non carried.
• 0401C (in) pane et aqua: the parenthesis is Migne's (or Mansi's) supplement. It is kept.
• 0402C se recipiat ad meridiem: "take refreshment at midday", i.e. eat at noon. The Wednesday and Friday exception then requires fasting until None.
• 0402C uratur / plate utatur: the plate prints utatur with a damaged t. The English follows the plate ("let him use"). Patch filed.
• 0402B–C psalm arithmetic: 50 psalms (for a day?); 300 kneeling or 320 standing for a week; 1200 kneeling or 1680 standing for a month. The ratios do not agree (1680/1200 = 1.4; 320/300 ≈ 1.07). The numbers are printed so and not normalized.
• 0403A solidi: 26 + 20 + 18 = 64. The printed total is right.
• 0403A quo modo crimina sua capitalia emendare debeat: taken as a relative, "by which means he ought to amend his capital crimes": the riches are the means. quo modo could also be an indirect question ("and how he ought …"). The relative reading needs no supplied "and".
• 0403B Qui per corpus suum peccat, per corpus suum hoc compenset ("the Apostle said", italic): this is not in the Vulgate. It is a maxim of the penitential tradition, attributed to Paul. It is rendered as printed. No [var:], because there is no received text to diverge from.
• 0403B Prima abstinentia est baptismus ignis …: this is the traditional list of twelve ways to remission (compare Cassian, Coll. 20.8, remissiones peccatorum). Here each item is called abstinentia, and the English renders "abstinence" as printed.
• 0403C–D cum effusione lacrymarum Dei honorem exoret: "entreat the honour of God". The object is odd: one expects "mercy". Rendered literally. (Old English ār means both "honour" and "mercy", which would explain it, but the English does not reconstruct the Old English.)
• 0403D CAPUT IV jejunet tres hiemes, et tria jejunia per hebdomadam jejunet duobus diebus ad Vesperam: this does not construe as one clause. The likely sense is "three winters, and the three (lawful) fasts; in the week, fast two days until Vespers". The English follows the printed words and supplies no punctuation: "and three fasts through the week let him fast on two days until Vespers."
• 0403D CAPUT IV septem annos: "seven years". annos, not hiemes, is printed here, beside tres hiemes in the same canon. Carried as printed.
• 0404A CAPUT V: paired tariffs. Si invitus in somno fuerit pollutus → sing one psalm (0403D). Then Si invitus fuerit pollutus, vel si volens in somno moechatus sit → sing twenty-four psalms (0404A). The involuntary case appears twice with different tariffs, and the second pairs it with the voluntary case. As printed, both are rendered with their invitus / volens, and nothing is harmonized.
• 0403D cantet psalterii psalmum: "sing a psalm of the psalter". This is probably a slip for psalterium (compare surgat et cantet psalterium, 0404A). Rendered literally; single-witness (the plate prints psalterii psalmum).
• 0404A maxillam suam … ad terram inclinet: "bow his jaw to the ground thirty times". Rendered literally.
• 0404A nonnulli volunt annum, et cum discretione tres: after decem hiemes, "some wish a year, and with discretion three". This probably means three years. Rendered as printed; volunt is blotted on this copy.
• 0404B CAPUT VI et ille neget, detineatur in itinere suo: detineatur can be read as continuing the si-clause ("and is held back on his journey", i.e. he refuses because his journey detains him), which fits the head ob itineris sui necessitatem. It can also be read as a jussive ("let him be detained"). The English keeps it in the protasis ("and he refuses, is held back on his journey"), which follows the head. No word is supplied.
• 0404B CAPUT VII quod servitium Spiritus sancti esset in dono baptismi, non tamen in hominis alicujus: "not however in that of any man". The non is carried.

Chunk 0001

• 0404C CAPUT IX non portet caracallam cassiatam, sed cum Evangelium legit, imponat eam humero: let him not wear it, but put it on his shoulder for the Gospel. As printed. caracalla cassiata is carried as italic Latin: a (hooded?) cloak; cassiata is unexplained.
• 0404D CAPUT X si comedat antequam ad Eucharistiam abeat, et postquam Eucharistiam acceperit: "if he eats before he goes to the Eucharist, and after he has received the Eucharist". Taken strictly, this punishes eating after communion as well. Rendered as printed.
• 0405A CAPUT XIV: a married man who defiles another's woman gets one winter. si autem caelebs sit gets seven. Taken strictly, the unmarried man gets the heavier tariff. Printed so and rendered so.
• 0405B videat quid sit homo, quid sit bestia: "let him see what the man is, what the beast is", as printed (the subject is the priest).
• 0405B–C CAPUT XV Si parvus puer a majori opprimatur in coitu, jejunet quinque noctes: the subject of jejunet is unexpressed. As printed, the one who fasts is the boy who was overpowered. Rendered so, and not repaired. "Nights" for noctes is as printed.
• 0405D suspendantur: "let them be suspended". The English keeps the ambiguity of the Latin (hanged, or suspended from communion). Stint B renders suspendendi sunt (0417A) as "to be hanged", where the clause gives no room for "suspended". Here the English "suspended" is the literal word and asserts neither sense. Merge-time note: this is a deliberate difference and not drift. The Latin verbs differ in context, and "suspended" is the literal rendering of both.
• 0405D Quilibet ethnicus deserat uxorem suam ethnicam in potestate sua: "let any heathen desert his heathen wife in his own power". The likely sense is "at his discretion". Rendered literally.
• 0406A non imponatur ei aliquod jejunium nisi juxta canonicum jus sit consecrandus, licet necessitatem suam celet: both non and nisi are carried: no fast unless he is to be ordained.
• 0406A hoc est quasi Christum suspenderet: "as if he were hanging Christ", i.e. crucifying.
• 0406A et tres plenario jejunet: "and three let him fast in full". The noun is unexpressed (the three lawful fasts?). Rendered as printed.
• 0406A Baptizatus [ Lege baptizans]: Migne's own bracketed correction. It is carried verbatim and untranslated (Pattern 19 and the bracket convention). The English renders the printed Baptizatus: "The baptized".
• 0406B CAPUT XIX si uxor flagitia sua committere velit intra quinque annos, alii viro nubere debet: "if the wife wishes to commit her misdeeds within five years, she ought to marry another man". The sense is opaque. The parallel tradition (Theodore) concerns a wife who wishes to do penance. committere is printed (plate committere; TEI commitere, orthographic patch). Rendered literally; nothing supplied.
• 0406C jejunet septem hiemes severum jejunium, vel quindecim leviora: "seven winters a severe fast, or fifteen lighter ones", as printed.
• 0406C–D CAPUT XX excipe si ipsa omnino contradixerit, quod eum nolit, tunc illa, si ipse velit, hoc omittere potest: nolit is carried ("that she does not want him"). si ipse velit ("if he himself wishes") is the man's consent, as printed.
• 0406D CAPUT XXI si cum extis ejus coeat: "if he lies with her entrails". This is a Latin rendering of anal intercourse ("from behind"), rendered literally, plainly, and not euphemized further.
• 0406D Quilibet homo Solis die vel nocte coiens: "Any man coupling on Sunday, by day or by night". dies Solis = Sunday, per the table. "With a woman" is not supplied.
• 0407A CAPUT XXII in homicidio in ira et in secreto: "in homicide, in anger and in secret". The second in phrase is in apposition. As printed.
• 0407A Quicunque homicidio consentit, et illud deinde committat … quadraginta dies ecclesiam non ingrediatur: the non is carried.
• 0407B si autem cognatis ejus ipsum compensare voluerit: "if he has been willing to compensate his kinsmen for him", i.e. pay the wergild.
• 0407B CAPUT XXIII hoc sit juris episcopalis an arma deponat, et ad monasterium abeat, vel septem hiemes jejunet: "let it be of episcopal law whether he lay down his arms …", as printed.
• 0407B–C CAPUT XXIV Si quis alterum occiderit, nequaquam in homicidio: "by no means in homicide", i.e. not as murder. nequaquam is carried.
• 0407C Homo qui odit fratrem suum homicida est, uti Joannes evangelista dicit: 1 John 3:15 (Vulg. omnis qui odit fratrem suum, homicida est). This is a roman-type paraphrase, and the address is right (John). Paraphrase: no [var:]. homicida = "a murderer".
• 0407C CAPUT XXV quocunque modo liber sit, servae libertatem lucrari debet: "in whatever way he is free, he ought to gain the bondwoman's freedom". This assumes the freed one is the man, though aliquis eorum allows either. As printed.
• 0407D non debet illam deinde relinquere, si mutuo consensu antea serva fuerat: "if by mutual consent she had previously been a bondwoman". The condition is odd (the consent belongs to the marriage). Rendered as printed.
• 0407D tres dies ante jejunium quadragesimale, non congregetur, ita etiam quadraginta dies totos usque ad nonum diem in Paschate: "let him not come together … until the ninth day in Easter". congregetur = come together (conjugally). The non is carried.
• 0407D vel alteruter eorum sit infidelis, vel sit sanus: "or is healthy". One expects "sick" as a ground for separation. sanus is printed (plate-confirmed). Declined for [cj:]: the English is odd, but it does not assert something the canon argues against, and the word is neither a negation nor a correlative (Pattern 18a bar).

Chunk 0002

• 0408A CAPUT XXVI et dein nolit resipiscere, et cum eo in quinque annis pacem inire: nolit governs both infinitives: "will not come to her senses, and make peace with him". The English keeps the one negation over both, as the Latin does.
• 0408A exspectet eum sex annos … et captiva post quinque annos redeat: six years of waiting, then a return "after five years" that already obliges the second marriage to yield. Taken strictly, these contradict. Both numbers are printed and carried.
• 0408A Cum vir in adulterio conjunctus sit uxori suae familiae: "joined in adultery to a wife of his household". familiae is taken as a genitive of uxori (a woman of the household). It could also be a dative, "to his household's …". Rendered literally.
• 0408B post hanc aetatem dominus ejus illam capere potest, cum sua voluntate: grammatically sua refers to dominus ("with his own will"), and the English keeps the grammar. The canon's likely sense is "with her consent" (the tradition's point is that she may not be married against her will). Not repaired.
• 0408B Si inimicus vir aliquem uxore privet: "If a hostile man deprives someone of his wife", i.e. she is carried off by an enemy.
• 0408C CAPUT XXVIII Abstineat mulier a marito suo septem menses antequam eam cognoscat: "seven months before he knows her". The sense required is "before she gives birth" (the head speaks of the gravida). As printed, cognoscat makes little sense. Rendered literally; plate-confirmed.
• 0408C Mulier in consuetudine sua menstrua ad ecclesiam non confugiat: "let her not take refuge in the church". confugere is printed (one expects accedere). Rendered literally, with the non carried; nec … nec both carried.
• 0408D CAPUT XXIX: head uxore, body mulier. As printed.
• 0409A CAPUT XXX quasi pro homicidio jejunet tres annos … et tres jejunium legale: "and three the lawful fast". The number does not agree with its noun. Rendered as printed. The head speaks of a newly born infant killed by magic, and the canon speaks of abortion. Both are printed.
• 0409A–B CAPUT XXXI Unum jejunium competit viduis et feminis. Majus competit uxori: competit = "befits". Rendered literally.
• 0409B Uxor non deserat maritum suum, licet adulteretur: the subject of adulteretur is unexpressed. The English says "although he commit adultery" (the husband), which is the tradition's sense and the only one that gives the clause a point. ⚑ This is a real call: "she" is grammatically possible.
• 0409B Uxor ad eucharistiam accedat antequam pariat, cum maxime ei necessarium sit: as printed.
• 0409B CAPUT XXXII Si quis praemium aliquod magnum saltem diabolis immolet: "sacrifices some great reward at least to devils". praemium and saltem are both rendered literally; the sense is strained. The TEI's immo' et is a transcription garble, and the plate prints immolet, (patch filed).
• 0409B quicunque inimicis assignatum cibum sacrificat: "food assigned to enemies". The head says De immolatione inimicorum. inimici here plainly means demons (compare diabolis just before), but the Latin says "enemies" and so does the English.
• 0409C Quicunque frumentum urit in loco ubi mortuus est, in salutem vivorum, et masculi: "whoever burns grain in the place where one has died, for the health of the living, and of the male". et masculi is opaque, and in loco is what Wilkins's note says should be rendered "in the house". The note is carried as [nt:], and the text translates in loco as printed. frumentum: the plate sets fre-|mentum. At 400 dpi the third glyph is ink-filled and cannot be read, and the chapter head on the same page sets fru-|mentum. single-witness; no marker, no patch. The English says "grain".
• 0409C–D CAPUT XXXIII si Deo promittat quod post mariti sui mortem alium nolit: "wants no other". nolit is carried.
• 0409D emendare deinde velit circa undecimum annum, postquam in mariti sui potestatem pervenerit: "about the eleventh year". Obscure, rendered as printed.
• 0409D hoc est utrum illum mutet, vel non: vel non is carried ("or not").
• 0410A CAPUT XXXIV et nesciat aliud jus praeter hoc: "knows no other law besides this". The negation in nesciat is carried in "no".
• 0410A Quicumque sua sponte pejeret, et norit deinde quod perjurus sit: "of his own will … and knows afterwards". Deliberate perjury gets a lighter tariff (three or two winters) than oath-breaking on a relic (four winters). This is printed so.
• 0410A Si quis in laici manibus juret, nihil obstat an cum astutia: "nothing hinders whether with cunning". Opaque. nihil is carried, and nothing is repaired. The tail, nonnulli volunt ut cum jejunium suum fixerit, is elliptical ("some wish that when he has fixed his fast") and is left elliptical.
• 0410B CAPUT XXXV tertia vice suspenditur: "the third time he is suspended". Same treatment as 0405D.
• 0410B Ita Romanus abit ad eucharistiam, nisi quod excommunicet eum qui nequeunt: "except that he excommunicates him who cannot". eum is singular and nequeunt plural (plate-confirmed). English "who cannot" has no number exponent, so this rendering hides the disagreement. It is recorded here: single-witness, so no [sic:] on this copy (Pattern 12(2) would otherwise apply). The nisi is carried. The tradition (Theodore) says rather that the Romans do not excommunicate those who abstain. The printed sentence may have lost a negative. Declined for [cj:]: the conjecture rests on an outside text, not on the printed context, and that is research, not translation.
• 0410B In uno eodemque altari quotidie duas missas celebrare debes: "thou oughtest to celebrate two Masses daily". The second person singular is carried (Pattern 17). The tradition's sense is permissive ("thou mayest"), but debes is printed.
• 0410B–C Qui non adest … non debet; non vult, non accedat; Non debet quis … non potest: every negative is carried.
• 0410C eucharistiae gratia accedere: the plate has gratia, the TEI gratiae (patch filed). The English follows the plate: "for the sake of the Eucharist".
• 0410D corpus consumpti hominis et mariti: "the body of a man departed and a husband". consumptus = dead, finished. et mariti is odd. Rendered literally.
• 0410D CAPUT XXXVII Mulieres sub Brunonis regulis ad eucharistiam accedant, uti Basilius docebat: "under the rules of Bruno", rendered as printed per the brief. (The Theodoran parallel has women communicate sub nigro velamine, "under a black veil". OE brūn is "dark". That is noted here only; the English does not reconstruct.)
• 0410D Apud Graecos uxores sacrificium immolare debebant, uti apud Romanos: "wives were to offer the sacrifice". debebant is imperfect. Rendered as printed.
• 0411A deinde cum decimum obolum annuum solvimus, et hoc quadraginta dies ante Natale Domini: the Advent fast, "when we pay the annual tenth obolus", as printed.
• 0411A CAPUT XXXVIII head De vulpibus …: "On foxes". The body never mentions foxes, but the head says it.
• 0411A Pisces emi possunt, licet mortui occurrant: "Fish may be bought". One expects edi, "eaten", given the chapter's subject (quae comedendae sunt). emi is printed (plate-confirmed) and is a real word, so the English says "bought". Declined for [cj:]: "bought" is not a claim the canon argues against.
• ⭐ 0411A neque quas accipiter momorderit, si mortuae inveniantur, non sunt edendae — [cj:] FIRED. Migne prints a double negative, neque … non. Rendered literally, the English says "nor are those which a hawk has bitten … not to be eaten". That asserts they may be eaten, which is the opposite of the rule the sentence continues (aves … non sunt comedendae) and of the Acts proof-text it adduces. This is the 8195 @1250B shape exactly (Migne's own nec … non double negative, Pattern 18 ✅ list), and the defect word is a negation (the 2026-08-15 extension). Both negatives are carried, and the gloss stands beside them: [cj: non sunt edendae; read sunt edendae after neque, "nor are to be eaten"]. Plate-confirmed on p. 212. The type is sound, so this is not a [sic:]: it is probably OE negative concord (ne … ne) carried into Latin.
• ⭐ 0411A–B Acts 15:29 — [var:] FIRED. Migne prints, in italics, as a quotation (ita exstat in Actibus apostolorum injunctum), Abstinete vos a fornicatione, et a suffocato, sanguine et idololatria. The Vulgate (Acts 15:29) has ut abstineatis vos ab immolatis simulacrorum, et sanguine, et suffocato, et fornicatione. Migne's "idolatry" stands where the Vulgate has "things sacrificed to idols", in a chapter about which foods may be eaten. Order differs as well. The English renders Migne ("and idolatry"), and the marker gives the Vulgate. Plate-confirmed on p. 212.
• 0411B Halices: "Herrings". halec = small fish or fish-sauce, and halices = herrings in medieval usage. dirrhaea = "diarrhoea". (sanandam), Migne's parenthesis, is rendered in parentheses: "(to be healed)".

Chunk 0003

• 0411B CAPUT XXXIX ita occidantur antequam ad mel perveniant, et saltem ut non per noctem ibi habitent: as printed; the non is carried.
• 0411B suffiatur cum thure: "let it be fumigated with incense" (suffire). A real word. Plate-confirmed.
• 0411B Si quis impuris manibus cujuscunque generis tangat, vel canem …: "touches, of whatever kind, either a dog …". The object phrase cujuscunque generis is left hanging, as it is printed.
• 0411C Theodorius dicebat quod nihil ei doleat: "it should grieve him nothing" (it does him no harm). nihil is carried. The plate has a full stop after doleat, and the TEI has a comma (patch filed). The English follows the plate.
• 0411C Si quis bis confirmetur, et hoc sciat … si hoc nesciat: the paired tariffs (seven and three winters) are carried with the knowing/unknowing distinction the right way round.
• 0412A CAPUT XL permittimus tamen ut non abjiciatur, licet comedi non debeat: both negatives are carried.
• 0412A licet vetus de hoc non habeamus testimonium: "although we do not have old testimony about this".
• 0412A Qui proprium sanguinem in saliva nesciens devocet: "draws down". devocare is a real word ("call down or away"); one expects devoret, "swallows". Plate-confirmed as devocet. single-witness. It is rendered by its literal sense, with no marker. The English is odd, not false.
• 0412B si ante nesciverat, et postea sciat: rendered with sciat. The plate glyph looks like sciet, but on this copy cantet in the same line looks like cantot, so the vowel cannot be trusted.
• 0412B CAPUT XLI Qui pro mortuo jejunat, hoc ei ipsi sit solatium, si mortuum non adjuverit: "if he has not helped the dead man". The non is carried.
• 0412B–C Sylvester canon et nolumus ut … ejiciantur, et legem conjugalem ac Christi recte annuntient: grammatically annuntient is still inside nolumus ut, which would make the Latin say "we do not wish … that they rightly proclaim". The English keeps the same construction: "we do not wish that … be cast out, and rightly proclaim …". The ambiguity is the printed one.
• 0412C nisi excipe, si omnia non sint quam certissime pura, loquatur septem linguis: "unless except, if all things are not as certainly pure as can be, let him speak with seven tongues". This does not construe. nisi and non are both carried; the sense (swearing by seven compurgators?) is not recoverable from the printed words.
• 0412C nisi triginta et sex (testium) numero, et presbyter, quadraginta et quatuor numero sint: (testium) is Migne's parenthesis, rendered "(of witnesses)". "For" before "a presbyter" is not supplied.
• 0411 CAPUT I (second part) quoniam Salvator dicit, si sacerdos nolit … quod animam illam ab ipso deinde requiret: this is Ezek. 3:18 / 33:8 (sanguinem ejus de manu tua requiram), not a saying of Christ. It is a roman-type paraphrase. The address is a finding: "the Saviour" for Ezekiel. No [var:] (paraphrase). nolit → "will not".
• 0412D CAPUT II Quocunque die homo ad piam vitam revertitur, vivet, et non morietur (italic, "the Saviour says"): this conflates Ezek. 18:21/28 or 33:15 (vita vivet, et non morietur) with Ezek. 33:12 (in quacumque die conversus fuerit). Again it is attributed to "the Saviour" and is Ezekiel. Paraphrase and conflation, not a quotation whose words diverge, so no [var:]. The et non morietur matches the Vulgate. Logged so the decision is visible.
• 0412D quod opinio esset hominis veram confessionem …: hominis is taken with confessionem ("a man's true confession"), not with opinio. Either is possible.
• 0412D quia sacerdos nullam habet necessitatem illis hominibus veram confessionem denegandi: "has no necessity of denying". nullam is carried.
• 0413A CAPUT III Furi necesse est ut sacerdos …: "For a thief it is necessary that the priest console a man of this condition". Furi (dative of fur) is plate-confirmed, and nothing about a thief follows. The sentence plainly wants something like Fieri necesse est or Vere necesse est. Furi is a real word with a grammatical slot, so it is rendered, not carried. single-witness, so no [sic:]. Declined for [cj:]: the English is absurd but asserts nothing the canon argues against, and no negation or correlative is at stake.
• 0413A quod confessionem fecerit et eucharistiam perceperit: "that he has made confession and received the Eucharist". The tradition has "that he desired". As printed.
• 0413A CAPUT IV desperatio haec gravius peccatum esse putatur quam peccata quae confiteri cogitabat, et quod jam negligit: the subject shifts from plural homines to singular cogitabat / negligit. Rendered as printed ("he was thinking … he now neglects").
• 0413B CAPUT V Omnia mihi licita sunt, sed non mihi expediunt omnia (italic, "Paulus apostolus dicit"): 1 Cor. 6:12 (Vulg. Omnia mihi licent, sed non omnia expediunt). The words differ (licita sunt, mihi added), but the sense does not. Divergent in wording, not material, so no [var:]. The English renders Migne ("but not all things are expedient for me").
• 0413B–C hoc est desiderium mundi, quod nihil iis conducat qui plenario illud committunt: as printed; nihil is carried.
• 0413C ut non omittant peccata sua confiteri: the non is carried.
• 0413C CAPUT VI Sanctus Isidorus, qui librum hunc composuit: printed so. It is rendered as printed and not corrected (authorities rule).
• 0413D CAPUT VII quod indecorum sit … et nunquam cogitare de poenitentia, quam antea poenituit: nunquam is carried, inside the "unseemly" clause, as printed.
• 0413D Qui Deo vult servire non debet occupari in mundanis negotiis ("sanctus Paulus dicit", roman): 2 Tim. 2:4 (Vulg. Nemo militans Deo implicat se negotiis saecularibus). Paraphrase: no [var:]. The address (Paul) is right.
• 0414A CAPUT VIII similis sit omnino cani qui vomit, et deinde devorat ("Petrus dicit"): 2 Pet. 2:22 / Prov. 26:11. Paraphrase: no [var:]. The earlier allusion at 0403B (cani qui devorat quod prius evomuit) is unattributed paraphrase too.
• 0414A non praesumat (tamen): the parenthesis is Migne's and is kept ("let him not (yet) presume").
• 0414B CAPUT IX, head De eo quod poenitenti per episcopi intercessionem remissio non detur: the head says remission is not given, and the canon says a bishop must not deny confession. The head is printed so and rendered with its non.
• 0414B ut nullus homo eam assequi non possit: "that there is no man who cannot attain it". Both negatives are carried, and here the double negative gives the intended sense (everyone can), so no [cj:].
• 0414B three scripture sayings in roman type: Cum peccator a peccatis suis ad poenitentiam convertatur, tunc sanus erit (Ezek. 18/33 sense, attributed to "the prophet"); Confitere injustitiam tuam, ut sis justificatus (Isa. 43:26 narra … ut justificeris with Ps. 31:5 Confitebor … injustitiam meam, a conflation); Quod cum Domino sit innumerabilis misericordia ("the Psalmist": Ps. 129:7 apud Dominum misericordia). All three are paraphrase: no [var:].
• 0414B quoniam nemo vitiorum exspers est: nemo is carried.
• 0414C CAPUT X head Deo eo: the plate has De eo (patch filed). The English head is unaffected.
• 0414C non denegetur ei: si tamen … et licet hoc non plenario emendaverit: both non are carried.
• 0414C portione sua bona utatur: "let him use his own good portion". bona is read as ablative, agreeing with portione. It could be accusative plural ("use his goods with his portion"), which is less natural.
• 0414C–D CAPUT XI: the head says nisi cum episcopum adire nequit and the body says et si ad episcopum pervenire nequeat. Both are carried.
• 0414D sanctus Augustinus dicit in alio loco: "in another place", with no prior Augustine citation in this part. As printed.

Plate: archive PDF pp. 214–220, every column read (data/briefs/8382-PLATE-READS-0004.json). Single witness, so no [sic:] is fired on anything below. Nor is any [var:], [cj:], [ed:] or [d:]. Where plate and TEI differ and the plate is sound, the English follows the plate (data/briefs/8382-PENDING-TEI-PATCHES-0004.md, eight sites).

Standing decisions for this range

• uxor = "wife", everywhere. This Latin uses uxor where the Old English behind it has wif, "woman": Si uxor aliqua ordinetur communi ordine (0418B), laica uxor impura (0422D), neque aliam uxorem (0421D), si uxor aliqua desponsata sit (0417D, "if any wife has been betrothed"). The common brief says not to smooth a Latin Anglicism, so the English keeps "wife" and the oddity stays visible. mulier = "woman", femina = "woman", puella = "girl", consors = "consort", conjux = "wife"/"spouse" as context gives.
• annus = "year" throughout this range. No hiems occurs in chunks 0004–0007.
• servus / serva = "slave / bondwoman"; pedisequa = "handmaid"; procuratrix = "stewardess".
• CAPUT PRIMUM = "CHAPTER ONE."; LIBER SECUNDUS / TERTIUS / QUARTUS = "BOOK TWO / THREE / FOUR." (peer C's "BOOK FOUR." head is matched word for word).
• secundo semper die (0426B, 0426D ×2) = "always on the second day", literal. It may mean every other day, or Monday (OE Monandæg is not "second day", so that is weak). Left as printed.

Cruces

• 0416C (head of CAPUT IV) Do eo quod mulier: plate p. 214 prints Do for De. It is a one-letter slip in a head formula with only one possible reading. It is rendered "On" and logged here. single-witness: no [sic:] on this copy alone.
• 0415D infra se / volit: the TEI reads infra se ("beneath herself") and the non-word volit. The plate reads intra se and velit. The English follows the plate ("within her", "shall … wish"). Both are pending patches, not Migne's defects.
• 0418D uti non lit: the TEI has a non-word. The plate reads uti non fit, "as it does not happen". The pending patch is filed and the English follows the plate. The sense is the OE hedge "as it should not", rendered literally.
• 0419A contrabant: the TEI has a non-word. The plate reads contrahant. The English follows the plate ("contract").
• 0416A et alios. Dei ministros: the TEI has a full stop that the plate does not print. The English follows the plate ("and other ministers of God").
• 0416C Si quis (hominem) possessionem suam occidat: "If anyone kills his (man) possession". The bracketed (hominem) is Mansi's/Migne's gloss, carried as printed. The head says servum suum, so the "possession" is a slave.
• 0417A Juvenes et imprudentes omnino suspendendi sunt: "are by all means to be hanged". This is printed flat and rendered flat. It follows a canon that gives a man of twenty fifteen years' fast, so the severity is surprising. Still, the Latin says suspendendi, and the English says "hanged".
• 0419B et absque eucharistia, sumatur (plate-confirmed, comma and all): "and without the eucharist, let it be received". The subject of sumatur is unexpressed and the clause contradicts itself. The intended sense is probably "and the eucharist be received" (absque perhaps a misrendering of an OE particle). Negation fidelity: absque is carried, and nothing is repaired.
• 0419A (head of CAPUT XIX) crebros coitus: "frequent couplings". The canon is about marrying more than twice, so coitus stands for "unions". Rendered literally.
• 0419C noctes diei Solis, et diei Mercurii, et diei Veneris: "the nights of Sunday, and of Wednesday, and of Friday", per the vocabulary table.
• 0420A laicus … quatuor annos; si sit communis conditionis homo, jejunet quinquennium: a layman gets four years but "a man of common condition" gets five, the heavier sentence for the lower rank. Printed so and rendered so. Brief §4: the numbers were not normalized.
• 0420D ut ad nullum jus mundi et pacem redire nolit (plate-confirmed): two negatives, nullum and nolit. The English carries both: "unwilling to return to no law of the world and peace". This is OE negative concord (nan … nelle) carried into Latin. Taken strictly, the Latin says the man is willing to come back to the law, and yet he is excommunicated for it. The sense is plainly "will return to no law". Per 7a, both negatives stand and the contradiction is recorded here. Not a [cj:]: Migne's type is sound and prints what the Latin version says. Pattern 18 is for a wrong printed word, and this is the Latin version's idiom.
• 0421A ut non offerat plus reddere quam antea mutuo acceperat: "that he not offer to return more than he had before received on loan". The prohibition is aimed at the lender, but this clause is framed on the borrower. Rendered as printed.
• 0421D ut nullius uxoris proximam secum habeant: "that they have near them the neighbour of no wife". proximam does not construe cleanly. It probably renders OE neawist, "nearness, company": no woman's company. Rendered literally, and nullius is carried.
• 0421D neque cognatam suam, neque aliam uxorem: both neque are carried ("neither their kinswoman, nor any other wife").
• 0422B CAPUT VII: the canon opens Si episcopus … dederit, et non recordetur … and closes the conditional on the quotation without an apodosis. A new sentence then begins with Si quis contra hoc fecerit. It is rendered as printed, with a protasis that ends in a colon and the quotation.
• 0422C (head of CAPUT IX) complacitum sumat cum muliere: "makes a compact with a woman". complacitum is rare. Rendered by its root sense (agreement).
• 0424B ita ut non praedicet omnibus hominibus: after ut nullius eorum parcat ex alicujus hominis timore, the result clause reads "so that he does not preach to all men what they are to do". Taken strictly, this makes the forbidden outcome the purpose. The sense intended is "spare none out of fear, lest he fail to preach". Rendered literally with the non carried.
• 0424B Sacerdos est vox Graeca, et Latine significat sacrum dans: the etymology is false (sacerdos is Latin), but it is printed so. The gloss depends on the Latin words, so they stay in italics with an English gloss beside them in ordinary quotation marks, "giving the holy" (the stylus precedent).
• 0425C quindecim annos, septem in pane et aqua, et septem quolibet anno …: fifteen years, but the parts add to 7 + 7. Plate-confirmed. Rendered as printed.
• 0425C/D exceptis dominicis diebus Solis: "excepting the Lord's days, Sundays". Both vocabulary words are kept, and the anchor [0425D] falls between them as printed.
• 0426B procreat infantem … vel (eum) ad compita et per terram trahit: "brings forth an infant … or drags (it) to the crossroads and through the earth". This is a charm (drawing the child through the earth), rendered literally.
• 0427A/B si laicus, cum permissu ex ebrietate vomat: "with permission". The OE is probably mid gewealde, "wilfully". Rendered literally.
• 0427B si per fraudem alium inebrietur: inebrietur is passive in form with an accusative alium. Rendered by the evident sense, "gets another drunk". The passive form has no English exponent that construes.
• 0427B si vivus sit vendatur aqua / vendatur (cibus) (plate-confirmed): "let the water be sold" / "let (the food) be sold". This is odd as law. It is probably OE sylle ("give", which later means "sell") rendered by the later sense. Rendered literally both times.
• 0427C Si ea non consecrata ex incuria in terram cadat: "If it, not consecrated, falls". The non is carried. The canon imposes fifty psalms for an unconsecrated host, which is lighter than the neighbouring tariffs for the consecrated one, and that is consistent.
• 0427D ut putrefiat ad comedendum: "so that it rots for eating". Rendered literally.
• 0428A Qui comederit antequam ad eucharistiam eat, et postea eucharistiam comedat: "eats the eucharist", literal (comedat).

Scripture: every quotation checked (Clementine, sources/vulgate/clementine-flat.txt)

The canons introduce these as the Saviour's or scripture's words. All five are paraphrase from an Old English source, not Vulgate quotations, so none takes a [var:] (brief §5). The English renders Migne's words as printed and does not echo the familiar verse where the words differ.

• 0416A–B, CAPUT XV (Jas 5:14–15): Hic notat sanctus Jacobus … et si plenus peccatorum est, illa ipsi remittentur. This is reported speech in roman type, not quoted. Vulg. Infirmatur quis in vobis? inducat presbyteros … et si in peccatis sit, remittentur ei. Paraphrase. Address correct.
• 0420C, CAPUT XXVII (Matt 5:23–24): Si munus offeras ad altare Dei, et ibi recorderis quod frater tuus, hoc est: quilibet Christianus inimicitiam foveat tecum, desere ibi munus tuum … Vulg. Si ergo offers munus tuum ad altare, et ibi recordatus fueris quia frater tuus habet aliquid adversum te: relinque ibi munus tuum ante altare, et vade prius reconciliari fratri tuo … Paraphrase with a roman gloss (hoc est: quilibet Christianus) set inside the italic (plate-confirmed). The address is right ("in his Gospel", the Saviour).
• 0421C, CAPUT IV (Lev 19:2; cf. Lev 11:44, 1 Pet 1:16): plate-confirmed Estote sancti, quia ego Dominus Deus et Dominus vester sum sanctus. Vulg. Lev 19:2 Sancti estote, quia ego sanctus sum, Dominus Deus vester. Paraphrase. The inverted Estote sancti and the doubled Deus et Dominus vester are the Latin version's, and the English renders them: "I the Lord God and your Lord am holy". ⚑ Address finding: the canon gives these words to Salvator ("the Saviour says"). They are Leviticus, cited in 1 Pet 1:16. ⚑ The launch brief quotes this line as … Dominus Deus vester sum sanctus. The plate and our TEI both carry Deus et Dominus vester.
• 0422B, CAPUT VII (Ps 14:5): Tunc divitiis ejus uti debetis, qui pecuniam suam ad nullum injustum tributum tradit, given as "the Saviour … through David the psalmist". Vulg. qui pecuniam suam non dedit ad usuram. Paraphrase (loose). Address correct: a Psalm.
• 0424B–C, CAPUT XVI (Ezek 34:2–5): Vae vobis pastoribus, qui gregis lacte utimini … et cibus facti sunt omnibus bestiis feris. Vulg. Ezek 34:2 Vae pastoribus Israel…, 34:3 Lac comedebatis, et lanis operiebamini…, 34:4 Quod infirmum fuit non consolidastis…, 34:5 et factae sunt in devorationem omnium bestiarum agri. Paraphrase. Plate-confirmed word for word, and all six non/neque are carried. ⚑ Address finding: attributed to Salvator ("which the Saviour said concerning the shepherds of the people of Israel"). It is Ezekiel. Nunc omnis grex meus seditiosus est has no Vulgate counterpart.
• Allusions, not quotations (not checked as verses): 0419A sanctus Paulus hoc prohibet in doctrina sua (on remarriage: Rom 7 / 1 Cor 7 permit it, and the canon limits it to twice); 0423A sanctus Paulus hoc admodum prohibuit (women at the altar: cf. 1 Cor 14:34); 0424A uti sanctus Paulus docet (cf. 2 Tim 4:2); 0418D, 0419B, 0422A, 0422D sacri libri. 0423B–0424A, Gregory's answer to Augustine, is the Libellus responsionum (Bede, HE I.27), paraphrased. It is not scripture.

Every column in the range was read at the plate (archive PDF pp. 220–224; see data/briefs/8382-PLATE-READS-0008.json). Single witness: nothing below fires a [sic:].

Apparatus fired: 3 [var:] · 0 [sic:] · 0 [cj:] · 0 [d:] · 0 [ed:] · 4 [nt:] (the four recovered foot notes: head of the Oxford excerpt, @0433A, @0433D, @0434B).

Standing decisions for this range

• The Pater noster and Miserere mei Deus cues (0428D). Rendered as cues, in the printed italics: Have mercy on me, O God and the Our Father. "Twelve Pater noster" is carried as "the Our Father twelve times" so no plural has to be forced onto an italic prayer title.
• LIBER QUARTUS head (cont.) in 0008 and 0009 is word-for-word the same as stint B's head in 0007 (checked by diff), so assembly merges cleanly.
• delicatus (0009 @0430D–0431A) = "effeminate (man)": the Latin word's own sense. Not reconstructed from the Old English.
• hiemes at 0431A = "winters" (work vocabulary), beside annos = "years" in the same sentence.
• crapula (0429D, 0430C) = "surfeiting", kept apart from ebrietas/ebrius ("drunkenness", "drunk") which the Oxford canons also use.
• poeniteat = "let him do penance", the same English as poenitentiam agat; the twin keeps the difference.
• andronas (0433A) is kept in italic Latin because Migne's own note glosses the WORD (Id est, populi confluentias); an English word in its place would leave the note explaining nothing (Song-of-Songs rule, case 2).

Cruces, by column

• 0428B reliquos dies jejunet contra. Rendered "the remaining days let him fast in turn". contra as an adverb ("on the other side, in return"); the sense is presumably the alternate days not on bread and water. Plate confirms the word.
• 0429B per supplicium. "through punishment": the eighth remission is dying per supplicium (by penalty/execution). cum in vivis esset then says the friends redeem him "while he was among the living", which sits oddly with a remission after death; rendered as printed.
• 0429B ut homo interior, hoc est anima pro pia habeatur. No comma after anima on the plate; the English carries none ("that is the soul may be held for godly").
• 0430B ut tibi per Deum peccata tua remittat. No expressed subject; "that he may remit thee thy sins through God" as printed.
• 0430C a perjuris (plate-confirmed; earlier in the same chunk perjuria). Read as perjuriis with the medieval -iis > -is contraction (Pattern 9) and rendered "perjuries"; the other construal, perjuris "the perjured", is possible and would give "of perjurers".
• 0431A unum annum omnino uti mulier. "one year altogether as a woman": elliptical as printed; the sense of the Basil tariff is not recoverable from this Latin. Rendered literally.
• 0431A vel suspendatur. "let him either be suspended": suspendere is "hang" as well as "suspend"; the English keeps the same ambiguity rather than choosing.
• 0432A ⭐ quoniam mater illorum contigit ea, quae haec opponit. Does not construe (singular opponit with no subject that fits; contigit "touched" or "befell"). Rendered as closely as the words allow: "because their mother touched those things, which opposes these." The plate answers it and our Latin does not carry the answer: p. 222 prints a foot note keyed ª here, Mallem legere : quoniam illorum matri convenit huic se opponere. WILKINS. ("I would rather read: because it befits their mother to set herself against this"). It is NOT one of the six notes recovered at prep, so it was not injected; reported to the caller for data/plate-notes/8382.tsv. No [cj:] fired: Migne's editor has already conjectured it, and Pattern 19 forbids relabelling his conjecture as ours.
• 0432B si hoc frustra fecerit. "if he did this to no purpose": after "through anger" (three years) a one-year tariff for frustra; perhaps "without intent". Rendered literally.
• 0433B in aliquo gradu in ecclesiastico praefixus. Our twin's second in leaves ecclesiastico without a noun; rendered "set over in some grade in the ecclesiastical". At the plate the line start is blotted in this copy's clipped margin, so whether Migne sets the second in is indeterminate. No patch, no marker.
• 0433D cap. XXII. Si quis non acquiescit ut satisfaciat qui intulit injuriam: construed with qui intulit injuriam as the subject ("If anyone who inflicted an injury does not consent to make satisfaction"), which is what the following Matt 18 quotation (si … non audierit) needs. The alternative (the injured party refusing satisfaction) is the theme of XXIII.
• 0433D cap. XXV / 0434B cap. XXXII, Migne's cross-notes (b) and (c). (b) at XXV saepius proprio says "see below, chap. 32"; (c) at XXXII says another reading has proprio excommunicetur cibo there, "as above, chap. 25", in place of excommunicari debet. Both translated as [nt:]; the printed text is what the English renders.
• 0434B excitavit, — the plate prints a comma where our twin has a full stop (pending patch). The English follows the plate, so XXXII is a single sentence: "If anyone is roused … against him who roused him to prayer, … ought to be excommunicated". The subjectless excommunicari debet is Migne's syntax, not a lost word.
• 0434D De omni verbo otioso — plate otioso, twin otiosa (pending patch). No English exponent either way.
• Single-witness worn sorts, no marker (see the plate reads): Domiuo 0431C, stiοendio 0431D, subjaccbit 0432C, com lacrymis 0433B. The words are Domino, stipendio, subjacebit, cum; our twin already has them.

Scripture — every quotation checked against sources/vulgate/clementine-flat.txt

Stint B's sites (Lev 19 / 1 Pet 1, Matt 5, Ezek 34) are outside this range.

Candidates rejected
