In Prümmer's Catalogue and Haringer's Index
- “Graffius, Iac., titular abbot of Monte Cassino, Italian (1548-1620), composed several very useful casuistic moral works, for example Decisiones aureae casuum conscientiae, 3 volumes in 4to, Venice 1609; De arbitrariis confessariorum, in 4to, Naples 1613.” — Prümmer, Catalogue of authors
- [**: weighty, probabilist] “Graffius, or Iacobus de Graffis, Cassinese abbot, wrote, 1693.” — Haringer's index of writers (Gury-Ballerini) (p. XIX, sign read on the page)
His Moral System, as Our Authors Report It
Every report quoted in the author's own words and linked to its place; point at a name to see his words. Haringer's signs give St. Alphonsus's judgment as Haringer found it in St. Alphonsus's works (his notice, Gury-Ballerini, 1884, p. XI); a sign on a writer the 1884 editor added to the list is the editor's own, and is said to be his.

Where Our Authors Discuss Him
Each read in its full passage; the words quoted are the author's own. Where several authors say the same thing, one is quoted and the others follow “in nearly the same words”; point at a name to see his words.
