publicly, has either himself shown or incited others to disobedience
to the laws, contempt of religion or morality or the constitutional

use, he shall receive full compensation from the Exchequer.

the landed property constituting the benefices of the clergy shall be
applied solely to the benefit of the clergy and to the promotion of
education. The property of charitable institutions shall be applied
solely to their advantage.

107. The Odel and Aasæde [1] rights may not be abolished.
The further conditions under which they shall continue, to the greatest
benefit for the State and advantage of the country population, are to
be determined in the first or second Storthing following.
