La quarta però non ammette interpretazione, e debbe essere per
ogni conto proscritta. Si è risoluto, che ogni dispensa dai gradi
proibiti di parentela sia concessa dall’Ordinario di ciascuna
parte contraente. Dovevano pur i Vescovi riflettere, che essendo
la parentela un vincolo, che lega due persone, e impedisce, che
trà loro si possa contrarre il matrimonio; subito che una di esse
èsciolta da questo vincolo, ne viene in conseguenza, che ne sia
prosciolta anche l’altra, non potendo restarne avvinta una, e
libera l’altra. Se dunque per autorità legittima, o della Sede
Apostolica, o di uno degli Ordinarj è tolto il vincolo di
parentela trà un uomo, e una Donna, non vi è più bisogno di altra
dispensa, ne fà, mestieri ricorrere all’altro Ordinario per
ottenerla. . . . . . . Prego il Signore che La conservi e
feliciti.

[TRANSLATION.]
Having taken into its careful consideration the resolutions
adopted at a meeting of the Suffragan Bishops of the Province of
Armagh, held last year at Drogheda, on the 8th and 9th of August,
this S. Congregation of Propaganda, by authority of our Lord Pope
Pius VI., after a protracted examination, has finally given
judgment thereupon. This judgment it now signifies to your
lordship, as Administrator of that Metropolitan See, in order that
you may speedily communicate to the above-mentioned Prelates the
decision which it has been led to take. First of all, however, it
has been established that the meeting cannot be called a
provincial synod, seeing that it wanted all the formalities
prescribed for the holding of synods, and especially the presence
of the Metropolitan Chapter, which, when immemorial usage to the
contrary has not interfered with its right, ought always to be
invited to synods. But although this meeting of bishops may not
claim the character or the authority of a provincial synod,
nevertheless its resolutions could not be published without the
consent and approbation of the Apostolic See, since the decrees
even of provincial synods, lawfully convened and celebrated in
canonical form, require at all times the approbation of the Holy
See before their observance can be made obligatory. The example of
St. Charles Borromeo in the Six Provincial Synods of Milan, is of
itself a sufficient guide for Bishops in this matter.
