Note 1329 — XXVIII. THE COUNCIL OF TRENT.
Reading edition
Le Plat, V. 88. The opinion which was held of the venality of the Roman Court in such matters is forcibly expressed in the instructions given to Lanssac, the French ambassador at Trent. He is ordered to press the abolition of the Papal power of dispensation “attendu que nul n’en est refusé s’il a argent.”—Ibid. p. 153.
