gratiae, gratiosa rescripta, is the name given to particular rescripts, by which the pope sometimes grants especial privileges, indulgences, exemptions, etc. to all who have participated in extraordinary processions; when a prebend or the reversion of an office is the reward, then the letter of grace constitutes a gratia exspectativa (See EXPECTANTLE). For the canon law on the subject, see Wetzer u. Welte Kirchen-Lex.
