Papal Bull

• Papal Authority Letter to the prefect Acerbius
  and the nobles of Tuscany, 1198,
• Just as the founder of the universe established
  two great lights in the firmament of heaven, the
  greater light to rule the day and the lesser
  light to rule the night, so too He set two great
  dignities in the firmament of the universal
  church..., the greater on to rule the day, that
  is, souls, and the lesser to rule the night, that
  is, bodies. These dignities are the papal
  authority and the royal power. Now just as the
  moon derives its light from the sun and is indeed
  lower than it in quantity and quality, in
  position and in power, so too the royal power
  derives the splendor of its dignity from the
  pontifical authority.....13
