Solution

The correct option is A Indulgences
The clergy collected a sum called the 'Peter's Pence' from the people. Pope Leo X wanted to build St. Peter's Church. So, he issued pardon certificates called 'Indulgences' to those who gave money to build the church. Indulgences were letters which were remitted punishments of the sinners who bought them, both in this life and after their death.
