AD ADEODATUM ABBATEM NEAPOLITANUM,
Illius monasterio Gazarense quousque Neapoli ordine-
lur antistes, Puleolanum vero in perpetuum unit,
Gregorius Adeodato abbati Neapolitano.
Quorumdam monachorum ejusdem monasterii ad
nos relatione pervenit monachos monasterii * Grat-
lerensis, quod $Situm in Plaja est, monasterio sancti
Sebastiani quod Neapoli in domo quondam Romani
constructum est, ubi, Deo miserante , sicut dictum
es, abbatis geris officiom, >» se monasteriumque
$wum unici magnopere- poposcisse , adeo ut charias
omnes ejusdem monasterii tuo monasterio, ut dicitur,
tradidissent. Sed quia monasterium ipsum in Neapo-
litana est d1cece-i constitutum, ne quid conslituere,
quod absit, prajudicialiter videamur, volumus ut
quousque Neapoli ordinetur anlistes, tuo interim
monaslerio anleſatum Gratterense monasterium cum
omnibus aq $e pertinenlibus sit unitum. Cum vero
propitiante Domino Neapoli ſuerit episcopus ordina-
lus, utrum in perpeluum hc unitio extend: an tem-
s(erio Puleolis sito deputaveris, sub tua quidem di-
ciplina, sed tamen Puleolano episcopo, cujus dicecesis
est, non Neapolitano noveris subjacere.
