- Printed in the volume's appendix, pp. 594-600, headed "The Canons of the Holy and Altogether August Apostles". Transcribed from the CCEL ThML of NPNF2 XIV and collated word by word against the dated scan (Internet Archive sevenecumenicalc00perc) before loading. Each canon is a section numbered by Hammond's number, the print's primary numbering. This is not the text of the Apostolic Constitutions VIII.47 in the Ante-Nicene Fathers, which numbers the canons differently. 4 readings in which the CCEL text departs from the print are corrected to it, each read off the page image.
