peer agreement (net): +1(we) ordered to send (the letters) Explanation: It seems to me that in good Latin it should be "mitti", not "expediri". Pardon my English. |

peer agreement (net): +1we have ordered to be prepared Explanation: in witness of which we have ordered this document to be prepared I am fairly sure this sentence is just a standard certificate formula relating the document ('hae litterae') to the act (ordination to the priesthood) which is being certified. In other words, there is no 'letter' involved, nor any sending. |
