Subjects in this Topic:
a council held at Huesca, in Spain, in 598, of which only two canons are extant. One orders that the diocesan synods, composed of the abbots, priests, and deacons of the diocese, be held annually, in which the bishop shall exhort his clergy upon the duties of frugality and continence: the other that the bishop shall inform himself whether the priests, deacons, and subdeacons observe the law of continence (tom. 5:Cone. 1604). — Landon, Manual of Councils, p. 266.
