His Royal Highness the Duke of Orléans, having been informed that for some time now there has been considerable laxity in signing the form prescribed for the late King's Declarations of April 1664 and 1665, has ordered me to inform you of his intention that, without excluding anyone, you should give me your visa. You will not allow any benefice to be taken in your Diocese, and you will not confer any on anyone unless the form has first been signed purely and simply, without any restrictions. I direct the same to all the Archbishops and Bishops of my Department, by order of His Royal Highness.
