The University of Paris, nec pontificis reverentia prohibuit, says the report, quominus veritati insistereat, "reverence of the holy father prevented not the university from declaring the truth" , although the matter then in question was an article of the faith and lay within a field within which the competence of the pope could not be doubted, still the university, on the 22d of January, 1332, put forth a decree in which this construction of the dogma was classed to be erroneous.
