A religious order, who observed the rule of St. Augustin, prescribed them by pope Alexander IV. in 1256. This rule was to have all things in common; the rich who enter among them to sell their possessions, and give them to the poor; to employ the first part of the morning in labouring with their hands, and the rest in reading: when they go abroad, to go always two in company; never to eat but in their monastery, &c.
