[De Cura Pro Mortuis.]

Translated by Rev. H. Browne, M.A.

Of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge; Late Principal of the Diocesan College, Chichester.
From the Retractations, Book ii From the Retractations, Book ii. Chap.64. The book, On care to be had for the dead, I wrote, having been asked by letter whether it profits any person after death that his body shall be buried at the memorial of any Saint. [2707] The book begins thus: Long time unto your Holiness, my venerable fellow-bishop Paulinus.
