Et cum constitutione in concilio Viennensi edita quae incipit in plerisque ut pontificiae dignitatis honor servaretur statutum fuerit ne ecclesiis cathedralibus bonis temporalibus sine quibus spiritualia diu esse non possunt privatis ac clero et populo christiano carentibus de aliquibus personis praesertim religiosis provideretur constitutionem ipsam innovamus illam que inviolabiliter observari debere volumus atque mandamus nisi aliqua iusta causa in consistorio nostro secreto approbanda aliter duxerimus faciendum (Concilium Lateranense V: documenta)

In order that respect for the papal dignity might be preserved, it was determined by the constitution issued at the council of Vienne, which begins In plerisque that no persons, especially no religious, may be provided to cathedral churches which are deprived of temporal goods, without which spiritual things cannot exist for long, and which lack both clergy and Christian people. We renew this constitution, and we will and command that it must be observed inviolably unless we shall judge otherwise for some just reason to be approved in our secret consistory (Fifth Lateran Council).
