These chapters, enacted in Toulouse under King Charles, address the concerns of bishops and presbyters in Septimania. They emphasize respect and moderation in bishops' treatment of presbyters, set limits on the provisions and payments presbyters must provide, and regulate the manner and frequency of episcopal visitations to parishes. The text prohibits bishops from imposing undue burdens or demands on presbyters, including excessive servants or fees, and calls for a cooperative and charitable approach to ministry. The chapters aim to uphold the sanctity and dignity of the sacred ministry while ensuring practical and just arrangements for church governance.
