quarta, a fourth of the tithes
Explanation:

DEX: cuártă s.f. (înv.) impozit pe recoltă (a patra parte), dijmă.

Catholic Encyclopedia enumeră diferite tipuri de dări pe care le percepeau episcopiile catolice, printre care şi o parte din dijme, care mergeau la parohii:
and likewise a portion of the tithes (quarta decimarum, quarta decimatio), which accrued to the churches of the diocese.
http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/14322b.htm

... that the clergyman has a right to only a fourth of the tithes, the other three being appropriated to the repairs of the church
http://www.jstor.org/stable/60100765

Totuşi existau multe alte forme de "quarta" percepute în Biserica catolică, .. aici văd că nu e specificat ce se impozita.
