    Canon XXXVIII.

    The canon which was made by the Fathers we also observe, which thus decreed:  If any city be renewed by imperial authority, or shall have been renewed, let the order of things ecclesiastical follow the civil and public models.

    Notes.

    Ancient Epitome of Canon XXXVIII.

    If any city is or shall be renewed by the Emperor, the ecclesiastical order shall follow the political and public example.

    Van Espen.

    The canon of the Fathers which the Synod wishes observed is XVII of Chalcedon, the notes on which see.

    Here it must be noted that by “civil and public models” is signified the “pragmatic” or imperial letters, by which the emperors granted to newly raised up or re-edified towns the privilege of other cities, or else annexed them to some Province.
