Richard,
Canon 11 (which deals with various superstitious and magical practices) of the 12th Council of Toledo of 681 is in Mansi 11, cols. 1037-1038.

Illustribus,
Various secondary sources I havebeen consulting note that a canon from the Council of Toledo of 447 provides oneof the earliest descriptions of the devil’s appearance. And to support this,these sources either cite each other or provide the following reference:
Mansi, Concil. 3.1465
The problem is, vol. 3 of Mansi doesnot go up to 447. Rather, the relevant volume would seem to be no. 6 which coversthe period 441-451. Not only does this contain no reference to a council inToledo, but it only runs to col. 1230.
Can anyone help? Have I hopelesslymisunderstood this reference to Mansi?
Thanks,
Richard
