The first edition in French of the pragmatic sanction promulgated in Bourges in 1438 affirms the rights of the king over the Church of France, by limiting the authority of the pope over the Gallican clergy. The treatise by Guillaume Perault (1200-1278), a Dominican monk and archbishop of Lyon, was written during the thirteenth century. It deals in particular with concubinary clerics, but also with simony, which is the trading of the sacraments, strictly forbidden by the Church.
