Of the Solemn Rite of Penance

Supplement — compiled posthumously from Aquinas's early Sentences commentary

We must now consider the solemn rite of Penance: under which head there are three points of inquiry:

(1) Whether a penance can be published or solemnized?

(2) Whether a solemn penance can be repeated?

(3) Whether public penance should be imposed on women?
