MAINTAINING THE COMPLETELY UNCHANGED LATIN ROMAN CATHOLIC MASS DECREE QUO PRIMUM, ST. PIUS V, JULY 19, 1570
"By this our decree, to be valid IN PERPETUITY, we determine and order
that NEVER shall anything be added to, omitted from, or changed in this
Missal. . .At no time in the future can a priest, whether secular or
order priest, ever be forced to use any other way of saying Mass. And so
as to preclude once and for all any scruples of conscience and fear of
ecclesiastical penalties and censures,
we herewith declare that it is in virtue of our Apostolic Authority that
we decree and determine that this our present order and decree is to
last in PERPETUITY and can never be legally revoked or amended at a
future date. . . And if anyone would nevertheless ever dare to attempt
any action contrary to this order of ours, given for all times, let him
know that he has incurred the wrath of Almighty God and of the Blessed
Apostles Peter and Paul."
