The name is wrong

[edit]

The document pictured is Pope Paul III's bull, Altitudo Divini Consilii. The opening words, "In Nomine Sancte et individue Trinitatis, etc." are simply a pro forma statement that would introduce any official papal document. They do not comprise part of the official text. The official text starts after the name of the Pope (i. e., "Paul, Bishop, Servant of the Servants of God") and the greeting (i. e., "To the all the venerable brother Bishops, etc."). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mwidunn (talk • contribs) 01:14, 28 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
