Novamente Feitas e Ordenadas pelo Illustrissimo e Reverendissimo Senhor Dom Joaõ de Sousa [...] Propostas, e Aceitas em o Synodo Diecesano, que o ditto Senhor celebrou em 18. de Mayo do Anno de 1687. Coimbra: No Real Collegio das Artes da Comapnhia de Jesu, 1735. portada, [8], xxxvi, 670, [126], 22, [16], 192 pp., 1 grav.; 290 mm. Fourth printed Constitutions of the Bishopric of Porto, following those of 1497 (D. Diogo de Sousa), 1541 (D. Baltasar Limpo) and 1585 (D. Frei Marcos de Lisboa). They resulted from the diocesan synod that D. João de Sousa celebrated on May 18, 1687, in the fourth year of his episcopate, and replaced those of Frei Marcos de Lisboa, which had been in force until then. They were first printed in Porto in 1690 by Joseph Ferreira. This is the edition printed in Coimbra in 1735, at the Royal College of Arts of the Society of Jesus. The acts of the synod accompany them, with their own title page and pagination. D. João de Sousa (Lisbon, 1647; Lisbon, 1710) was Bishop of Porto from 1684 to 1696, Archbishop of Braga until 1703, and Archbishop of Lisbon until his death. Illustrated with two engravings by Bernardo dos Santos, both engraved with a burin: the first, allegorical, serves as a foreword; the second represents the Synod.
