of_o our_o own_o country_n rather_o than_o stranger_n that_o in_o relation_n to_o command_v we_o ought_v to_o take_v more_o care_n of_o those_o which_o be_v of_o importance_n than_o of_o those_o of_o

particular_n which_o these_o monk_n have_v propose_v to_o he_o the_o first_o be_v why_o a_o erroneous_a conscience_n do_v not_o sometime_o change_v the_o bad_a to_o good_a in_o like_a manner_n as_o the_o good_a to_o bad_a he_o answer_v that_o to_o the_o end_n that_o a_o action_n may_v be_v good_a it_o ought_v to_o be_v effect_v by_o the_o knowledge_n and_o love_n of_o god_n that_o he_o that_o

bad_a action_n believe_v it_o to_o be_v good_a be_v ignorant_a of_o what_o be_v good_a and_o therefore_o his_o action_n can_v be_v esteem_v good_a though_o his_o intention_n be_v so_o that_o his_o good_a will_n shall_v not_o be_v altogether_o deprive_v of_o a_o reward_n although_o through_o a_o deceive_a simplicity_n he_o be_v not_o altogether_o exempt_v from_o iii_o but_o what_o perhaps_o you_o may_v say_v do_v not_o he_o act_n according_a to_o his_o conscience_n yes_o reply_n st._n bernard_n but_o according_a to_o a_o false_a and_o erroneous_a conscience_n which_o do_v not_o exempt_v he_o absolute_o from_o sin_n next_o he_o answer_v this_o second_o question_n which_o be_v if_o in_o relation_n to_o command_v disobedience_n be_v proportionable_o as_o criminal_a as_o obedience_n be_v meritorious_a he_o show_v that_o in_o certain_a case_n obedience_n be_v more_o meritorious_a than_o disobedience_n criminal_a they_o have_v likewise_o demand_v of_o he_o how_o far_o they_o be_v oblige_v to_o be_v resident_a and_o where_o they_o may_v take_v a_o liberty_n to_o quit_v their_o monastery_n he_o answer_v that_o a_o good_a monk_n ought_v never_o to_o forsake_v his_o monastery_n without_o leave_n first_o obtain_v from_o his_o abbot_n when_o he_o be_v able_a to_o undergo_v the_o injunction_n of_o his_o order_n but_o if_o the_o ill_a life_n of_o those_o which_o he_o live_v among_o hinder_v he_o from_o so_o do_v then_o be_v he_o to_o choose_v and_o go_v to_o another_o monastery_n where_o he_o may_v accomplish_v those_o vow_n he_o can_v not_o so_o well_o perform_v there_o that_o although_o it_o be_v not_o allowable_a for_o a_o monk_n who_o be_v in_o a_o well_o regulate_v monastery_n though_o less_o austere_n to_o leave_v it_o without_o permission_n of_o his_o superior_a for_o one_o more_o austere_a yet_o if_o it_o happen_v that_o one_o have_v leave_v it_o enter_v into_o another_o none_o ought_v to_o advise_v he_o to_o return_v unless_o the_o monastery_n be_v near_o to_o each_o other_o and_o he_o be_v speedy_o recall_v the_o four_o question_n they_o propose_v to_o he_o be_v why_o st._n gregory_n the_o great_a receive_v a_o person_n that_o have_v quit_v his_o order_n into_o the_o communion_n and_o do_v not_o rather_o oblige_v he_o to_o return_v to_o a_o monastic_a life_n and_o why_o st._n austin_n teach_v that_o a_o marriage_n contract_v by_o such_o as_o have_v make_v a_o vow_n of_o continence_n be_v not_o to_o be_v dissolve_v st._n bernard_n own_v free_o that_o he_o be_v not_o of_o those_o holy_a bishop_n opinion_n and_o that_o it_o belong_v to_o they_o to_o make_v good_a what_o they_o have_v assert_v he_o moreover_o answer_v a_o five_o question_n concern_v the_o bishop_n which_o st._n gregory_n have_v cloister_v up_o in_o monastery_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o crime_n they_o have_v commit_v the_o question_n be_v whether_o they_o be_v to_o continue_v their_o episcopal_a habit_n there_o or_o to_o wear_v that_o of_o the_o monk_n he_o say_v he_o know_v little_a of_o the_o matter_n but_o that_o it_o be_v likely_a they_o ought_v not_o to_o take_v upon_o they_o the_o habit_n of_o the_o order_n because_o they_o have_v never_o before_o do_v it_o and_o because_o they_o be_v to_o continue_v in_o those_o monastery_n but_o for_o a_o time_n and_o that_o they_o be_v confine_v to_o these_o place_n only_o that_o they_o may_v have_v more_o leisure_n to_o repent_v the_o six_o question_n which_o he_o answer_v be_v why_o of_o all_o the_o kind_n of_o repentance_n that_o among_o monk_n have_v the_o privilege_n of_o be_v term_v a_o second_o baptism_n he_o say_v he_o believe_v it_o be_v by_o reason_n that_o they_o have_v absolute_o renounce_v the_o world_n and_o practise_v a_o spiritual_a life_n after_o a_o very_a

the_o seven_o question_n they_o ask_v st._n bernard_n be_v if_o when_o a_o abbot_n die_v or_o be_v depose_v they_o have_v during_o the_o interval_n a_o liberty_n to_o go_v out_o of_o their_o monastery_n to_o go_v to_o another_o st._n bernard_n answer_v they_o have_v not_o because_o the_o vow_n they_o make_v be_v not_o to_o be_v limit_v by_o the_o death_n of_o the_o abbot_n but_o only_o
