Question
Hello, what is the short formula for the annulment of vows?
Answer
Hello,
The formula is:
"I regret all the vows and oaths, as well as any good custom I have practiced without stating that it is without a vow. If I had known that I would regret, I would not have vowed or sworn, and a good custom I would have practiced without a vow, and I ask you to annul them all for me".
The judges say to him three times: "It is permitted to you", and then he recites the formula of the declaration.
