Pope Boniface IV, Epistle from the Council of Rome, 610. A.D.: “As long as the integrity of your Christianity shall have so thoroughly discerned [Latin: excreverit] concerning the worship of its author [God], might it shine forth far and wide, and made known in all the world, it might redound increases of your worthy operation in God; We release immense thanks to the bestower of all good things, God, who has watched you from on high, and raised so great a height of virtues.”
