The Canons of the Synod of Dort, A.D. 1619 and 1619. · The Canons of the Synod of Dort. A.D. 1618 and 1619.

[We give first the full Latin text of the Acts of the Synod of Dort (Dordrecht) on the five controverted heads of doctrine, viz., the Preface, the Articles of Faith, the Errors Rejected, the Names of Subscribers, the Conclusion, the Sentence against the Remonstrants, and the Approval of the States-General, but distinguishing the several parts by different type. They were officially published May 6, 1619, and often since in Latin, Dutch, German, and English. The original is given in the Corpus et Syntagma Confess. ed. II. 1654, in the Oxford Sylloge Confess. (pp. 397–454), in Niemeyer's Collectio (pp. 690–728); the German in Beck's and Böckel's Collections. To the Latin text we append the English abridgment, as adopted by the Reformed Dutch Church in America.]
