Pope Leo IV, Homilia (translation from the Labbei Edition) (an excerpt of an exhortation to priests): “See not through your negligence that any infant should die without baptism… everysoever priest should further rightly his office; he who, however, is illiterate, should be suspended from his office, except he should amend. You must proclaim the word of the Lord and not inane fables from your heart to the people, and preach. Take care of the poor, pilgrims, and orphans: and invite them to your breakfasts. Be hospitable, that others might assume from you your good example. Every Sunday before mass, bless the water whereby the people are sprinkled (asperged).”
