[_Capit. Langobardicum_, c. 3; Boretius, i. 202; Gröber, _Zur Volkskunde aus Concilbeschlüssen und Capitularien_ (1893), No. 11.] De pravos homines qui brunaticus colunt et de hominibus suis subtus maida[706] cerias incendunt et votos vovent: ad tale vero iniquitas eos removere faciant unusquisque. XXXIX. †_Eighth century._ HOMILIA DE SACRILEGIIS. [C. P. Caspari, _Eine Augustin fälschlich beilegte Homilia de Sacrilegiis_ (1886), § 17. Caspari (pp. 71, 73) assigns the homily to a Frankish clerk, probably of the eighth century. Later on (§§ 23-26) is another passage on the Kalends taken from the pseud-Augustine, _Sermo_ cxxix, which is No. xvii, above.] Quicumque in kalendas ienuarias mensas panibus et aliis cybis ornat et per noctem ponet et diem ipsum colit et [in eo] auguria aspicet vel arma in campo ostendit et feclum[707] et cervulum et alias miserias vel lusa [facit] quę in ipso die insipientes solent facere, vel qui in mense februario hibernum credit expellere, vel qui in ipso mense dies spurcos ostendit, [et qui in kalendis ianuariis] aliquid auguriatur, quod in ipso anno futurum sit, non christianus, sed gentilis est. XL. _Ninth century._ PSEUDO-THEODORE. [_Penit. Pseudo-Theod._ c. xii (Wasserschleben, _ut infra_, 597; cf. Haddan and Stubbs, iii. 173). This _Penitential_, quoted by Tille, _Y. and C._ 98, and others as Theodore’s, and therefore English, is really a Frankish one, partly based, but not so far as these sections are concerned, on the genuine _Penitential_ of Theodore. I do not quote all the many Penitentials which copy from each other, often _totidem verbis_, prohibitions of the _Cervulus_ and _Vetula_. They may be found in F. W. H. Wasserschleben, _Bussordnungen der abendländ. Kirche_, 368, 382, 395, 414, 424, 428, 480, 517; H. J. Schmitz, _Die Bussbücher und die Bussdisciplin der Kirche_, 311, 379, 479, 633. On the general character of these compilations and their filiation, see Schaff, vii. 371. Their ultimate authority for the particular prohibition of _cervulus_ and _vetula_, under these names, is probably No. xxv.] § 19. Si quis in Kalendas ianuarii in cervolo aut vetula vadit, id est, in ferarum habitus se communicant et vestiuntur pellibus pecudum, et assumunt capita bestiarum: qui vero taliter in ferinas species se transformant, iii annos poeniteant, quia hoc daemoniacum est. § 24. Qui ... kalendas Ianuarii, more paganorum, honorat, si clericus est, v annos poeniteat, laicus iii annos poeniteat. XLI. †915. REGINO OF PRÜM. [Regino von Prüm, _De synodalibus causis et disciplina ecclesiastica_ (ed. Wasserschleben, 1840), i. 304.] Fecisti aliquid quod pagani faciunt in Kalendis januariis in cervulo vel vetula tres annos poeniteas. XLII. Before 1024. BURCHARDUS OF WORMS.
