Tribus circiter

"[1]: n.2 The association's members proclaimed Kozłowska "to be most holy, marvelously endowed with heavenly gifts, divinely enlightened about many things, and providentially given for the salvation of a world about to perish, they did not hesitate to entrust themselves without reserve, and to obey her every wish".

In Faith and Fatherland, Brian Porter described "without discrimination and of their own initiative" as a key phrase in the document because Mariavites "did not merely bypass the hierarchical institutions of the Church; they denied that doctrinal and devotional issues ought to be channeled through them.

Both of them, in a petition alleged by them to have been written by the express order of... Jesus Christ, ask [Pius] or the Congregation of the Holy Office in his name, to issue a document" that Kozłowska had "'been made most holy by God, that she is the mother of mercy for all men called and elected to salvation by God in these days; and that all Mariavite priests are commanded by God to promote throughout the world devotion to the Most Holy Sacrament and to the Blessed Virgin Mary of Perpetual Succor, free from all restriction of ecclesiastical or human law or custom, and from all ecclesiastical and human power whatsoever...'"[1]: n.5 Pius believe that Kowalski and Próchniewski "were blinded... by ignorance and delusion," so he urged them: Porter believed, "The vital doctrinal point [was that Mariavites] were accused of demanding that priests be morally pure, and they refused to recognize the authority of anyone in the hierarchy who fell short of their rigorous moral standards.

[2]: 30–31  Porter explains that while it was acceptable to confine criticism to individual priests, it was unacceptable to express "a systematic critique of the clergy" in a way which "undermined the holiness of the Church" or "challenged the validity of the sacraments".

Thus, Pius advised the bishops "to receive them and their companions, now that they professed... obedience to your authority,... to restore them legally, if their acts corresponded with their promises, to their faculties for exercising their priestly functions".

Pius instructed the bishops "to lead" those faithful "who are now laboring under a delusion that may be pardoned... back to the right path" and to foster approved pious practices in their dioceses.
