Gelasius I → destinatário desconhecido
Tradução moderna em inglês
Pope Gelasius I to Herculentius, Bishop of Potentia (495).
Trigetius has informed Gelasius by petition that on his property called Sextilianus he has built a basilica dedicated to the holy archangel Michael and the confessor Marcus out of his own devotion. Gelasius therefore instructs Herculentius that, if the place falls within his diocese, he is to perform the solemn consecration of the aforementioned basilica. However, Trigetius is to endow it properly and retain no proprietary rights over it beyond his right to attend the liturgy.
