11. Wherefore, that the faithful of Christ and all the so-called Mariavite priests who are in good faith may no longer be led astray by the delusions of the woman above-mentioned and of the priest Johannes Kowalski, We again confirm the decree whereby the society of Mariavites, unlawfully and invalidly founded, is entirely suppressed, and We declare it suppressed and condemned, and We proclaim that the prohibition is still in force which forbids all priests, with the exception of the one whom the Bishop of Plotsk shall in his prudence depute to be her confessor, to have anything whatever to do on any pretext with the woman.

Quamobrem, ne Christifideles et quotquot ex sic dictis Mariavitis sacerdotibus in bona fide perstiterunt, ludificationibus memoratae mulieris ac sacerdotis Ioannis Kowalski diutius decipiantur, decretum iterum confirmamus, quo Mariavitarum consociatio, illegitimo irritoque consilio inita, omnino supprimitur, eamque suppressam reprobatamque declaramus, firma manente prohibitione, ne qui e sacerdotibus, eo tantum excepto quem Plocensis Episcopus, pro sua prudentia, confessarium deputaverit, ad mulierem quam diximus, quovis praetextu accedere aut eam excipere audeant.
