twelve [silver] grossos when he misses the second round,
and of one ducat if he fails to come to the third, in which
case he will also forfeit the right to take part in the ballots
for a whole year, unless he can justify his failure to attend
with some legitimate reason.

SEVENTEENTH STATUTE.
                  When our Chapter has come together,
                  if our Prior or any of the Counsellors
                  should make some proposal or
speak, no one else must speak or interrupt that
official's proposal or speech, on pain of a fine of two
ducats, and no member of our Guild must dare to
reply or propose anything without having first asked
for permission, and while that person is speaking,
he is not to be interrupted by anyone else, on pain
of a fine of one ducat to be levied from those who
do not comply with this rule, and in this way every
member will be able to speak in an orderly manner and
reply what he thinks is correct without causing any
confusion, as it should be.

EIGHTEENTH STATUTE.
                  That every member of our Guild,
                  whoever he may happen to be, is
                  obliged to show respect and reverence
towards our Prior, Counsellors and the six Council
members in all places, and no member must dare, in
any way, in deed and in word, to injure or offend the
person of any of these ministers, on pain of forfeiting
for a whole year the right of taking part in ballots, of
being disqualified for any office, and of having to pay
three ducats into our Treasury. Likewise, these ministers
must not presume to use injurious words against any
member of our Guild, be it when we are all gathered
in the Chapter, or be it outside, on pain of being
dismissed from their office and having to pay six
ducats, and, similarly,
