June 8. Lyons. Pope Innocent IV writes to the prior and brothers of the desert of Mount Carmel, relating that, in support of their calling, following the example of Pope Gregory [IX], he forbids them to receive in any way or to presume to have property or possessions or houses or other incomes from now on, except for male asses and some feed for animals or foul. The pope leaves them to their peace and quiet, so that no one shall presume to install a prior in the desert without the assent of the brothers or of the greater and sounder part. For this he confirms and orders to be observed perpetually the rule that Pope Honorius [III] approved and handed to them to observe in remission of sins.
