This book is in French.

The acts of the Bishop of Meaux printed at the end of volume V of the Lachat edition: the ordinance on the feast of the monastery of Cerfroid, the Archbishop of Paris’s ordinance against the Exposition de la foi, synodal statutes and ordinances (1691, 1698), and the documents and visitation record of the abbey of Jouarre.

Source: Typed transcription of volume V, pages 027-031 (administrative pieces). The Latin tract De doctrina concilii Tridentini on page 032 is not included. The transcription loses the œ ligature; it is restored by a dictionary pass (ambiguous forms such as sœur/sur, mœurs/murs, vœu/vu decided from the Lachat OCR). Page-bottom notes of the Lachat edition are kept as footnotes.
