I.21 What is found between Cavendum et summopere […] per os dicat Gregorii and Et alibi. Dolens inquit […] diu stare non poterit? The most common texts are:
  • Short version (see editio princeps fol. 3rb): Cur non perpendit, quia benedictio illi in maledictionem converitur.
  • Long version: Cur non videtur, cur non perpenditur [...] fiat hęreticus ordinatur. Et item. Quisquis contra hanc simoniacam […] tantummodo inaniter concupiscit.
Fowler-Magerl, Fine Distinctions pp. 147–149; Fransen, Montpellier p. 306; Fransen, Valeur p. 6; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 22–23, 33
I.23 Is there an addition after c. 23?
  • In the editio princeps fol. 3va, c. 23 ends ... detestatio ne percussus, and c. 24 begins: Quod non oporteat ordinationes episcoporum diu differri. Quoniam quidam metropolitanorum quantum comperimus ne ...
  • In many Italian copies, c. 23 is followed by Si quis episcopus aut presbiter aut abbas per pecuniam […] et sit anathema sicut Simon Magus a Petro?
Fransen, Montpellier p. 306
I.234 Are there additions after the end of book one? Normally, the last canon is c. 234 (Quia vero plurimi episcoporum ex aliis […] est in troadam). Three known additions are:
  1. Placet ut in anno bis concilia celebrentur […] assertione promulgabitur (a canon otherwise only known from Collectio XII partium);
  2. Erga simoniacos (an excerpt from JL 4431a, normally ending sanctimus)
  3. Fraterne mortis (JL †6613a)
Dusil, Wissensordnungen p. 257 n. 258
II.18 to 24 Commonly, c. 23 (De rebus vero illorum vel peculiari) is displaced, so that the sequence of canons is "18, 23, 19-22, 24". Fransen, Montpellier pp. 301, 307; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 33–34; Gneckow, Abhängigkeiten p. 135
III.15 Is there an addition after c. 15, namely Pervenit ad me quod […] per clericorum ambitum destruantur (an excerpt from JE 1317). Fransen, Montpellier p. 306; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 44–45
End of book III Is there a synodal order added after book three? The most common one is Schneider's Ordo 5 but there is considerable variety, as Schneider's discussion of the individual ordines makes clear. Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 6–7, 14; Schneider MHG Ordines pp. 31-37; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 43; Hoffmann/Pokorny, Dekret pp. 41–45
VIII.38 While "German" copies (and Parma, Biblioteca Palatina, 3777) have the complete chapter, many deteriores break off with cohabitare tecto, followed by spatium or not. Sometimes, the missing text is added by a later hand; sometimes, c. 38 is merged with c. 49, or followed directly by c. 50. Fransen, Montpellier p. 303–304; Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 9–10, 19; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 49–53
VIII.49-50 Deteriores copies typically lack cc. 39-48; c. 49 may be incomplete or missing altogether. Sometimes, the two fragmentary canons cc. 38 and 49 are merged (causing havoc to the grammar). Fransen, Montpellier p. 303–304; Fransen, Valeur pp. 2, 9–10, 19; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 20, 49–53
