The PREFACE. Thath been the wisdom of the Church of England, ever fince the first compiling of her Publick Liturgy.to keep the mean between the two extreams,of too much stiffnets, in refufing, and of too much eafinefs in admitting any variation from it. For, as on the one side common experience meweth, that where a change hath been made of things advitedly established (no evident neccility fo requiring) fundry inconveniencies have thereupon enfued; and thofe many times more, and greater than the evils that were intended to be remedied by fuch change: So on the other fide, the particular Forms of Divine Worship, and the Rites and Ceremonies appointed to be used therein, being things in their own nature indifferent, and alterable, and to acknowledged; it is but reafonable, that upon weighty and important confiderations, according to the various exigency of times and occafions, fuch changes and alterations fhunla be made therein, as to thofe that are in place of Authority should from time to time feem either neceflary or expedient. Accordingly we find, that in the Reigns of feveral Princes of hiefled manory fince the Reformation, the Church, upon juft and weighty confiderations er thereunto moving, hath yielded to make;fuch alterations in fome particulars, as in their respective times were thought convenient: Yet fo, as that the main Body and Effentials of it (as well in the chiefeft materials, as in the frame and order thereof) have till continued the fame upto this day, and do yet ftand firm and unthaken, notwithstanding all the vain attempts, and impetuous affaults made against it, by fuck men as are given to change, and have always difcovered a greater regard to their own private fancies and interefts, than to that duty they owe to the publick. By what undue means, and for what mifchievous purpofes the ufe of the Liturgy (though enjoined by the Laws of the Land, and thofe Laws never yet repealed) came, during the late unhappy confufions, to be difcontinued, is too well known to the world, and we are not willing here to remember. But when, upon his Majetty's Happy Restoration it feemed proba ble, that amongst other things the ufe of the Liturgy alt would return of courfe (the fame having never been legally abolished) unless fome timely means were used to prevent it; thofe men who under the late ufurped powers had made it a great part of their bufinefs to render their people difaffected thereunto, faw themselves in point of réputation and intereft concerned (unless they would freely acknowledge them felves have crred,which fuch men are very hardly brought to do) with their utinoft endeavours to hinder the reftitution thereof. In order whereuato divers Pamphlets were published against the Book of Common Prayer, the old Objections mustered up, with the addition of fome new ones, more than formerly had been made, to make the number fwell. In fine, great importunities were used to his Sacred Majefty, that the faid Rook Imight be revised, and fuch Alterations therein, and Additions thereunto made, as fhould be thought requifite for the safe of teader Confciences: Whereunto his Majefty, out of his pious inclination to give fatisfaction (fo far as could be reasonably expected) to all His fubjects, of what persuasion foever, did graciously condescend. Ia which Review we have endeavoured to obferve the like moderation, as we find to have been ufed in the like cafe in furmer times. And therefore of the fundry alterations propofed unto us,we have rejected all fuch as were either of dangerous confequence (as fecretly ftriking at fome eftablished Doctrine, u laudable Prattice of the Church of England, or indeed of the whole Catholick Church of Chrift) or elfe of DO confequence at all, but utterly frivolous and vain. But fuch alterations as were tendered to us (by what perfons, under what pretences, or to what purpofe foever fo tendered) as feemed to us in any degree requifite or expedient, we have wil lingly, and of our own accord affented unto: not enforced foto e be any frength of Argument, convincing us of the neceffity of making the faid Alterations: For we are fully perfuaded in Gur judements (and we here profeis it to the world) that the Book as it flood before established by Law, doth not contain in it any thing contrary to the Word of God, or to found Doctrine, or which a godly man may not with a good Confcience ule and submit, unt, or which is not fairly defenTitle again any that fhall oppofe the fame; if it shall be akowed fuch juft and favourable construction, as in common Equity ought to be allowed to all Human Writings, especially Tuch as are fet forth by Authority, and even to the very beit Tranflations of the holy Scripture itself. Our general aim therefore in this undertaking was not to gratify this or that party in any their unreasonable demands; but to do that, which to our best understandings we conceived might most tend to the Preservation of Peace and Unity in the Church; the procuring of Reverence, and exciting of Piety, T and Devotion in the publick Worfhip of God; and the crite ting off occafion from them that feek occafion of cavil, or quarrel against the Liturgy of the Church. And as to the feveral variations from the former Book, whether by Alteration, Addition, or otherwife, it fha feffice to give this general account, That most of the Alterations were made, either firft, for the better direction of them that are to officiate in any part of Divine service; which is chiefly done in the Calendars and Rubricks: Or fecondly, for the more proper expreffing of foine words or phrates of ancient ufage,in terms more fuitable to the language of the pretent times, and the clearer explanation of fome other words and phrafes, that were either of doubtful fignification, or otherwife liable to misconftruction: Or rdly, for a more perfect rendering of fuch portions of holy Scripture, as are infered into the Liturgy; which in the Epiftles and Gofpels especially, and in fundry other places are Bow ordered to be read according to the laft Tranflation: and that it was thought convenient that fome Prayers and Thankf givings fitted to special occafions fhould be added in their due places; particularly for thofe at Seastogether with an office for the Baptifm of fuch as are of Riper Years; which, although not fo neceffary when the former Book was compiled, yet by the growth of Anabaptifm, through the licentiouinets of the late times crept in amongst us, is now become neceffary, and may be always ufeful for the Baptizing of Natives in our Plantations, and others converted to the Faith. If any man, who fhall defire a more particular account of the several Aherstions in any part of the Liturgy, fhall take the pains to compare the prefebt Book with the former; we doubt not but the reafon of the change may eafily aspear. And having thus endeavoured to difcharge our duties la this weighty affair, as in the fight of God, and to approve our fincerity therein (fo far as lay in us) to the confciences of all men, although we know it impoffible (in fuch variety of apprehenfions, humours and interefts, as are in the world) to please all; nor can expect that men of factious, peevish and perverfe fpirits fhould be fatisfied with any thing that can be done in this kind by any other than themselves: Yet we have good hope, that what is here prefented, and hath been by the Couvocations of both Provinces with great diligence examined and approved, will be alto well accepted and ap proved by all fober, peaceable, and truly confcientious Sout of the Church of England. Concerning the Service of the CHURCH. Here was never any thing by the wit of man fo well devifed, or fo fure eftablished, which in continuance of time hath not been corrupted: As among other things, it may plainly appear by the Common Prayers in the Church, commonly called Divine Service. The firm original and ground whereof, if any man would fearch out by the ancient Fathers, he shall find, that the fame was not ordained but of a good purpose, and for a great advancement of godliness. For they f ordered the matter, that all the whole Bible (or the greatest part thereof) fhould be read over pace every Year; intending thereby, that the Clergy, and afpecially fuch as were Minifters in the congregation, should (by often reading, and meditation in Gods word) be stirred up to godliness themselves, and be more able to exhort others by wholfome Doctrine, and to confute them that were adversaries to the truth; and further that the people (by daily hearing of holy Scripture read in the Church) might continually profit more and mere in the knowledge of God, and be the more inflamed with the love of his true Religion. But thefe many years paffed, this godly and decent Order of the ancient Fathers hath been fo altered, broken and neglefted, by planting in uncertain Stories, and Legends, with multitude of Refponds, Verfes, vain Repetitions, Commemorations and Synodals; that commonly when any Book of the Bible was begun, after three or four Chapters were read out, all the rest were unread. And in this fort the Book of Ifaiab was begun in Advent and the Book of Genesis in Septuagefima; but they were only begun and never read through: After like fort were other Books of holy Scripture afed. And moreover, whereas St. Paul would have fuch language spoken to the peo ple in the Church, as they might under@and, and have proBr by hearing the fame; The Service in this Church of England these many years hath been read in Latin to the people, which they u: deiftand not; fo that they have heard with their ears only, and their heart, fpirit, and miad have not been edified thereby. And furthermore, notwithstanding that the ancient Fathers have divided the Plaims into feven portions, whereof every one was called a Nodturn: Now of late time a few of them have been daily faid, and the reft utterly omitted. Moreover the number and hardness of the Rules called the Pie, and the marafold changings of the Service, was the cause, that to turn the Book only was fo hard and intricate a matter, that many times there was more bufinefs to find out what thould be read, than to read it when it was found out. Thefe inconveniencies therefore confideréd, here is fet forth fach an Order, whereby the fame fhall be redreiled. And for a readiness in this matter here is drawn out Calendar for that purpose, which is plain and eafy to be understood; wherein (fo much as may be) the reading of holy Scripture is so fet jerth, that all things shall be done in order, without breaking eat piece from another. For this caufe be cut off Anthems, Refponds, Invitatories, and fuch like things as did break the continual courfe of the reading of the Scripture. Yet, because there is no remedy, but that of neceffity there must be fome rules; therefore certain rules are here fet forth; which, as they are few in number, fo they are plain and easy to be understood. So that here you have an Order for Prayer, and for the reading of the holy Scripture, much agreeable to the mind and purpofe of the old Fathers, and a great deal more profitable and commodious than that which of late was used. It is more profitable, becaufe here are left out many things, whereof fome are untrue, fome uncertain,fome vain and fuperftitious; and nothing is ordained to be read, but the very pure Word of God, the holy Scriptures, or that which is agreeable to the fame and that in fuch a Language and Order as is must eafy and plain for the understanding both of the readers and hearers. It is alfo more commodious both for the fhortness thereof, and for the plainneis of the Order, and for that the Rules be few and easy. And whereas beretofore there hath been great diversity in faying and finging in Churches within this Realm; fome fullowing Salisbury Ufe, fome Hereford Ufe, and fome the Ufe bf Banger, fome of York, fome of Lincoln; now from henceforth all the whole Realra fhall have but one Ufe. And foratmuch as nothing can be fo plainly fet forth, but doubts may arife in the ufe and practice of the fame; to appease all fuch diverfity (if any arife) and for the refolution of a doubts concerning the manner how to underfand, do, and execute the things contained in this Book; the parties that fo doubt, or diverfly take any thing, fhall alway refort to the Bishop of the Diocefs, who by his difcretion thall take order for the quieting and appealing of the fame; fo that the fame order be not contrary to any thing contained in this Book. And if the Bishop of the Diocefs be in doubt, then he may fend for the refolution thereof to the Archbishop. Houph it be appointed, That all things fhall be read and Tour in the Church in the Englif) Tergae, the end that the Congregation may be thereby edified; yet it is not meant, but that when men fay Morning and Evening Prayer privately, they may say the fame in any language that they them felves do understand. And all Priests and Deacons are to fay daily the Morning and Evening Prayer, either privately or openly, not being let by ficknets, or fune other urgent caufe. And the Curate that miniftereth in every Parish-Church or Chapel, being at home, and not being otherwife reasonably hindered, fhall tay the same in the Parish Church or Chacal where he miniftereth, and fhall caufe a Bell to be tolled thereunto a convenient time before he begin, that the people may come to hear Gods Word, and to pray with ¶ Of CEREMONIES, Why Jome be abolished, and fome retained. Ο F fuch Ceremonies as be used in the Church, and have had their beginning by the inftitution of man, fome at the first were of godly intent and purpose deviled, and yet at length turned to vanity and fuperftition: Some entred into the Church by indifcreet Devotion, and fuch a zeal as was without knowledge; and for because they were winked at in the beginning, they grew daily to more and more Abutes, which not only for their unprofitablefs, but also becaufe they have much blinded the people, and obfcured the Glory of God, are worthy to be cut away, and clean rejected: Other there be, which although they have been deviled by man, yet it is thought good to referve them ftill, as well for a decent order in the Church (for the which they were first devifed) as because they pertain to edification, whereunto all things done in the Church (as the Apoftle teacheth) ought to be referred. And al hough the keeping or emitting of a Ceremony in ittelf conficered, is but a small thing; yet the wilful and contemptuous tranfgreffion and breaking of a common Order and Discipline, is no finall offence before God. Let all things be done among you, faith Saint Paul in a Jeemly and due Order: The appointment of the which Order pertaineth net to private men; therefore no man ought to take in hand, nor prefume to anpoint or alter any publick or common Orderin Chritts Church, except he be lawfully called and authorized thereunto. And whereas in this our time, the minds of men are fo diverte, that fome think it a great matter of confcience to depart from a piece of the leaft of their Ceremonies, they be fo addicted to their old customs; and again on the other fide, fome be fo new-fangled, that they would innovate all things, and fo defpife the old, that nothing can like them, but that is new: It was thought expedient, not fo much to have respect how to pleafe and fatisfy either of these parties, as how to please God, and profit them both. And yet left any man should be offended, whom good reafon might fatisfy, here be certain caufes rendered, why fome of the accustomed Ceremonies be put away, and fome retained and kept ftill. Some are put away becaufe the great excess and multitude of them hath to increated in thefe latter days, that the burden of them was intolerable; whereof Saint Augußine in his time complained, that they were grown to fuch a number,that the eftate of Chriftian people was in werfe cafe concerning that matter, than were the Jews. And he counfelled, that fuch yoke and burden thould be taken away, as time would ferve quietly to do it. But what would saint Augustine have faid, if he had feen the Ceremonies of late days ufed among us; whereunto the multitude ufed in his time was not to be compared? This our exceffive multitude of Ceremonies was fo great, and many of them fo dark, that they did more confound and darken, than declare and fet forth Chrifts benefits unto us. And befides this, Chrifts Gofpel is not a ceremonial Law Cas much of Mjes Law was) but it is a Religion to ferve God, not in bondage of the figure or thedow, but in the freedom of the Spirit; being content only with thofe Ceremonies, which do feive to a decent Order and godly Difcipline, and fuch as be apt to ftir up the dull mind of man to the remembrance of his duty to God, by fome notable and fpecial fignifi cation, whereby he might be edified. Furthermore, the most weighty caufe of the abolishment of certain Ceremonies was, That they were fo far abufed; partly by the fuperftitious blind nefs of the rude and unlearned, and partly by the unfatiable avarice of fuch as fought more their own lucre, than the Glory of God, that the abufes could not well te taken away, the thing remaining ftill. But now as concerning thofe perfons, which peradventure will be offended, for that fome of the old Ceremonies are retained ftill: If they confider that without fome Ceremonies it is not poffible to keep any Order, or quiet Difcipline in the Church, they shall eafily perceive juft cause to reform their Judgments. And if they think much that any of the old do remain, and would rather have all devifed anew: Then fuch men granting fome Ceremonies convenient to be had, furely where the old may be well ufed, there they cannot reasonably reprove the old only for their age, without bewraying of their own folly. For in fuch a cafe they ought rather to have reverence unto them for their Antiquity, if they will declare themselves to be more ftudious of Unity and Concord, than of innovations and new-fanglenefs, whu h (as much as may be with true fetting forth of Chrifts Religion) is always to be efchewed. Furthermore, fuch fhall have ne juft caufe with the Ceremonies reierved to be offended. For as thofe be aken away which were most abufed, and did burden mens confciences without any Caufe; fo the other that remain, are retained for a Difcipline and Order, which (upon juft Caufes) may be altered, and changed, and therefore are not to he esteemed equal with Gods Law. And moreover, they be neither dark nr dumb Ceremonies, but are fo fet forth, that every man may understand what they do inein, and to what use they do ferve. So that it is not like that they in time to come thould be abused as other have been. And in thefe our doings we condemn no other Nations, ner prefcribe any thing but to our own people only: For we think it convenient that every Country should ufe fuch Ceremonies as they fhall think beft to the fetting forth of Gons Honcur and Glory, anito the reducing of the people to a muft perfect and godly living, without Error or Sunerftition; and that they fhould pot away other things, which from time to time they perceive to be moft abufed, as in mens Ordinances it often chanceth diverfly in divers Countries. T the Month. The Order how the Pfalter is appointed to be read. HE Pfalter fhall be read through once every Month, And whereas January, March, May, July, Auguft, October, and December, have One and thirty days apiece; It is ordered that the tame Pfalms fhall be read the laft day of the faid Months,which were read the day before: So that the Plalter may begin again the first day of the next Month enfuing. And whereas the CXIX Pfalm is divided into XXII Por tions, and is over long to be read at one time; It is fo ordered, that at one time fhall not be read above four or five of the aid Portions. And at the end of every Pfalm, and of every fuch Part of the CXIX Pfaim, fhall be repeated this Hymn: Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the baly Gheft; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be': world without end. Amen. Note, That the Pfalter followeth the Division of the Hebrews, and the Translation of the great English Bible, fet forth and ufed in the time of King Henry the Eighth, and Edward the Sixth. ¶ The Order how the rest of the Holy Scripture is appointed to be read. T HE CU Teftament is appointed for the firft Lefons at Morning and Evening Prayer; fo as the most part thereof will be read over every year once, as is the Calendar is appointed. The new Teftament is appointed for the fecond Leffons at Morning and Evening Prayer, and thall be read over orderly every year thrice, befides the Erifles and Goipels; Excent the Apocalyps, out of which there are only certain proper Leffons appointed upon divers Feaths. And to know what I eilons fhall be read every day, look for the day of the Month in the Calendar following, and here ye thall find the Chapters that shall be read for the Leffons both at Morning and Evening Prayers; except only the Moveable Feafts which are not in the Calendar, and the Immoveable, where there is a blank let in the Columu of Leons; the proper Lefions for all which days are to be found in the Table of proper Leffons. And note, That whenever proper Pfalms or Lessons are appointed; then the Pfalms and Leftons of ordinary courfe appointed in the Pfalter and Calendar (if they be different) fhall be omitted for that time. Note alfo. That the Collect, Epiftle, and Gospel appointed for the Sunday, fhall ferve all the Week after, where it is not in this Book otherwife ordered. |
