Book Description
Excerpt from Fragmenta Liturgica, Vol. 6 of 7: Documents, Illustrative of the Liturgy of the Church of England; Exhibiting the Several Emendations of It, and Substitutions for It, That Have Been Proposed From Time to Time, and Partially Adopted, Whether at Home or Abroad; Deacon's Devotions If these two principles were once put in practice, all the Ecclesiastical distractions which subsist at present, would cease; and a truly Catholic union would be restored among all Christian Churches. That I may contribute my mite towards so desirable an end, I have here ventured to present the world with what in my humble opinion will be the only means to attain it; which is what some will call a New, but which I presume to recommend to every pious Christian as the Oldest, and therefore the Best, Collection of Devotions extant in the whole Christian world. This I dare venture to say, because I have omitted no practice or ceremony that appears to he supported by antiquity, universality, and con sent; and because I have taken in all the Devotional part of the Apostolica] Constitutions, (except a few particulars foreign to the present purpose, ) at the same time that I have herein included such parts of the Common Prayer Book of the Church of England, as were necessary to complete the design.
