[3] Adeo et rationem subicit: in pace nos uocari a Domino et posse infidelem a fideli per usum matrimonii lucrifieri. Ipsa etiam clausula hoc ita intellegendum esse confirmat: Vt quisque, ait, uocatur a Domino, ita perseueret. Vocantur autem gentiles, opinor, non fideles. Quodsi de fideli ante matrimonium pronuntiasset, absolute permiserat sanctis uulgo nubere. Si uero permiserat, numquam tam diuersam atque contrariam permissui suo pronuntiationem subdidisset, dicens: Mulier defuncto uiro libera est ; cui uult nubat, tantum in Domino.
