CANON
(bouvier)		CANON, eccl. law. This word is taken from the Greek, and signifies a rule or
law. In ecclesiastical law, it is also used to designate an order of
religious persons. Francis Duaren says, the reason why the ecclesiastics
called the rules they established canons or rules, (canones id est regulas)
and not laws, was modesty. They did not dare to call them (leges) laws, lest
they should seem to arrogate to themselves the authority of princes and
magistrates. De Sacris Ecclesiae Ministeriis, p. 2, in pref. See Law, Canon.
