Catholic Liturgy

Description

Although the Spanish Inquisition called for strict censorship of texts containing "new ideas" about the traditional Christian sacraments, none of the Spanish indexes prohibited the specific passages that were deleted (with ink and removal of pages) from Bridwell Library's copy of this book. Instead, this censorship may have been carried out in Mexico. The verso of the title page of this copy was inscribed "Corregido secun santo oficio" ("Corrected according to the Holy Office").
