2/ if the matter sworn to is substantially changed or if, after the circumstances have changed, it becomes either evil or entirely indif-ferent or, finally, impedes a greater good;
3/ if the purpose or a condition under which the oath may have been taken ceases;
4/ by dispensation or commutation, according to the norm of can. 1203.
