medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I don't know how far back this goes, but the Sarum missal liturgy for
solemnization of marriage has the priest saying to those attending the
nuptials, "Admoneo vos omnes per patrem et filium et spiritum sanctum ut si
quis ex vobis est qui sciat aliqua re istos adolescentes legitime contrahere
non posse, modo confiteatur." [This is from a 15th-century edition of the
Missal, Wynkyn de Worde 1497, a photocopy of which happens to be on my
desk.]
