*Eugeniusbishops, popes, witness episcopusbishops servus servorumpopes Dei, dilectis filiis Guilielmoabbots, monasteries abbatiabbots monasteriimonasteries Sancti Benedicti super Padummonasteries, abbots eiusque fratribus tam presentibus quam futuris regularem vitam professis in perpetuum*. Cor nostrum pia divinitatis inspiracione conpungitur loca quondam in ecclesiasticæ religionis observantia instituta in melius reformare, et eorum destitutioni pro debito nostri officii subvenire. Hac siquidem intencione, hoc desiderio fideles quoque ad honorem Dei ecclesias construunt eisque possessiones et predia largiuntur, ut videlicet religiose persone inibi statuantur que ad divine maiestati humiliter ac devote deserviant, quarum orationibus ad Deum fusis tam fundatores quam etiam predecessores et posteri a peccatorum vinculis absoluti, pro temporalibus beneficiis eterna premia consequantur que mereantur. Quo nimirum intuitu recolende memorie illustris mulier Comitissacountess Mathildiscountess ecclesiamchurches beati Cesariichurches in Mutinensi pagoESTATE: pagus, churches; PLACE: pagus, churches; KEYWORD: pagus beato Petrooffersio/donatio oblatam, suis bonis possessionibusque ditavit, librisbooks, vasis, et aliis ornamentis ecclesiasticis, plurimum honestavit, et ut fratres qui secundum beati Augustini regulam omnipotentis Dei vacarent obsequiis, in eodem loco ponerentur effecit. Unde factum est ut mundo in maligno posito, et in deterius assidue declinante, quod illa pro bono religionis et anime sue remedio Deo et beato Petro obtulerat, a pravis hominibus sit occupatum atque distractum. Et ubi prius religio et honestas cum rerum temporalium ubertate vigebant, nunc peccatis exigentibus vix saltem vestigia bonorum spintualium ab insolenciam pravorum hominum valeant apparere. Cuius rei gratia cum fratribus nostris sepius meditante, ut tam plum prefate mulieris propositum non frustretur, sed potius optatum anime remedium consequatur, tibi, dilecte in Domino fili, Guillelme abbas, et successoribus tuis eandem ecclesiam cum suis pertinenciis duximus concedendam. Ut videlicet per tuam tuorumque successorum industriam, secundum beati Benedicti regulam, religiosorum fratrum conventus in eodem loco ponatur, et iuxta facultatem ipsius ecclesie eorundem numerus statuatur. Decernimus ergo ut nulli hominum liceat super hac nostra constitucione vos temere perturbare, nec prefatam ecclesiam perturbar quamdiu religio ibidem domino cooperante duraverit, a vestra dispositione seu correctione subtraere. Sed tam ipsa quam bona ad eam pertinencia sub vestro magisterio et libera ordinatione consistant. Salva nimirum beati Petri proprietate atque dominio, et nostra nostrorumque successorurn debita reverentia. Ad indicium autem quod eadem ecclesia apostolice sedis iuris existat, tres bizantos nobis nostrisque successoribus annis singulis persolvetis. Si quis autem adversus hanc nostram constitucionem temerario ausu venire temptaverit, indignationem beatorum apostolorum Petri et Pauli incurrat. Observantibus autem sit pax domini nostri Jesu Christi. Quatenus et hic fructum bone actionis percipiant et apud districtum iudicem premia eterne pacis invenient. Amen. R.
