Ordained Priest comes to thee make him thy true servant c. The Archdeacon saith The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ c. as above Three times Kyrie Eleison Then the Bishop turning towards the East saith this Prayer O Lord God we beseech thee render him worthy of the vocation of Priesthood c. that he may Administer upon thy Holy Altar c. Three times Kyrie Eleison Then the Bishop turning towards the West puts his right hand upon the Ordaineds head Praying thus O Lord God Omnipotent c. look upon this thy servant who is presented to thee in order to Priesthood by the approbation and judgment of those that propose him c. Replenish him with the Holy Ghost and Grace c. The Bishop Prays for him that he may worthily perform the Functions of Priesthood c. And turning to the West signs his forehead with his Thumb saying We call thee into the Holy Church of God Amen The Archdeacon with a loud voice saith N. is a Priest of the Holy Altar which is in the Holy Catholick and Apostolick Church of God Amen Then with a clear voice the Bishop saith We call thee N. a Priest of the Holy Altar which is called of the true Believers In the Name of the Father c. Then the Bishop makes three Crosses on his forehead signifying the Trinity Then he puts the Stole about him saying Glory and Honor be to the Holy Trinity consubstantial with the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost Peace and increase of the Holy Church of God Amen Then the Bishop turning to the East prays thus We give thee Thanks c. A Thansgiving to God and a Petition that the Ceremonies of Ordination may please him Then follows an Admonition to the Priest newly Ordained who having taken the usual Oath kisseth the Bishops hand the Altar and those that are present Then he explicates something of the Mysteries and the Bishop puts his hand three times upon him and all say with a loud voice N. is worthy to be a Priest in the Holy Catholick and Apostolick Church And so it ends These Rituals were with great trouble and industry Collected from several parts of the World by Morinus who saw the Originals and Translated them out of Greek and Syrian into Latine as you may see in his Treatise de Sacra Ordinatione part 2. Thus I have given you a Cursary View of the Manner how the Chiefest Professors of Christianity disperst all the World over did Confer the Order of Priesthood which compared to the present practise of the Church of Rome it will be obvious how this Church hath deviated in Essentials from the Institution of Christ the practice of the Apostles and the Primitive Church which by considering the particulars of the Roman Pontifical now in use will plainly appear A Draught of the Roman Pontifical for the Ordination of Priests now in use THe Bishop that is to give Orders is not to do it but in Mass and in the several parts thereof he exerciseth the several Functions of Ordination They that are to be Ordained Priests being by the Archdeacon presented and accepted The Bishop begins by the imposition of his hands upon the head of them successively but says nothing Then they return again and the Bishop puts his right hand upon the head of each of them and the Priests that are present do the like putting their hands by the Bishops Then the Bishop says a Prayer imploring Grace for them that are to be Ordained that they may worthily comply with the Functions of Priesthood This done the Ordainer takes the Stole of each that was before upon their left shoulder only and brings it round the neck and puts it upon the right shoulder also with these words Accipe jugum Domini c. Receive the yoke of the Lord c. Consequent to this he puts on their Casula or Priestly Vestment the hinder part being folded up and fastned to the upper part with this Forme Accipe Vestem Sacerdotalem c. Receive the Priestly Vestment c. Next follows the Annointing of their Heads with Holy Oyle And the Priests that assist tye the Palmes of their hands together with a Linnen Binder lest the Holy Oyle should be profaned Persuant to this the Bishop holding in his hand a Chalice with Wine and Water in it and upon it a Patene with an unconsecrated Hoast on it exhibits all this successively to them that are to be Ordained and here great care is taken by the Ordainer and the assisting Priests that they at the same 〈◊〉 touch the Chalice the Pattene and the Hoast to which end because their hands are bound together the Priests place their fore-fingers upon the Pattene so as to touch both Pattene and Hoast and the tops of their middle fingers being a little separated from the fore-fingers are applyed to the side of the Chalice under the Patene and the Priests in this posture press their fingers upon the Vessels alltogether and the Ordainer begins not the forme till he be assured that they touch all then he pronounceth the forme in these words Accipe potestatem offerendi Sacrificium pro vivis defunctis In nomine Patris filii Spirituus Sancti Receive the power of offering Sacrifice for the Living and the Dead In the Name of the Father c. This done they are esteemed Priests Quoad potestatem ordinis for as much as concerns the power of Consecrating and saying Mass and therefore they Consecrate together with the Bishop and say Mass all along with him having their Missals open before them Then after Consummation when they have all received the Communion the Bishop the third time puts his hand upon their heads with this form Accipe Spiritum Sanctum quorum remiseritis peccata remittuntur eis quorum retinueritis retenta sunt Receive the Holy Ghost whose sins ye forgive they are forgiven and whose sins you retain they are retained Then presently he unfolds their Vestment and lets it down behind saying Stola innocentiae induat te Dominus The Lord put thee on the Stole of Innocence And so it ends SECT IV. Shewing That the Church of Rome placeth the Essence of the Ordination of Priests in touching the Vessels and the Form annexed to it TO make good this Position I begin with the Autority of the Council of Florence Florent Instructione Armenorum Instructione ad Armenos where it Treats ex professo of the Essential matter of Priesthood and the Council assigns for this matter the Tradition of the Vessels and makes not the least mention of the Imposition of Hands nor any other matter Gregory the 9th tells us That if in Ordination the Imposition of Hands be omitted the Ordination is not to be reiterated his words are these Greg. 9. C. Presbyter de Sacramentis noniterandis Presbyter Diaconus cum ordinantur manus impositionem tactu corporali ritu ab Apostolis introducto recipiunt
his Example may confirm his Admonition that he may preserve the Guift of thy Ministry pure and undefiled and may transforme by his Immaculate Benediction the Body and Brood of thy Son through the obedience of thy People that as a perfect Man with inviolable Charity to the measure of age of the fulness of Christ in the day of the Justice of Eternal Judgment he may acquit himself with a pure Conscience with a full Faith being filled with the Holy Ghost Per Dominum c. Consecration of the Hand Let these Hands be Consecrated and Sanctified by this Unction and our Benediction that whatever they Bless may be Blessed and whatever they Sanctifie may be Sanctified Per Dominum c. Another Let these Hands be Anointed with this Holy Oyle and Chrisme of Sanctification as Samuel Anointed David for a King and a Prophet so let them be Anointed and Compleated in the Name of God the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost making the Sign of the Cross of the Lord our Saviour Jesus Christ who Redeemed us from Death and brings us to the Kingdom of Heaven Hear us Pious Father Omnipotent Eternal God and perform what we entreat and pray of thee Per Dominum c. A Ritual taken out of the Fourth Council of Carthage WHere these words are contained Presbyter cum Ordinatur Episcopo eum benedicente manum super caput ejus tenente etiam omnes Presbyteri qui presentes sunt manus suas juxta manum Episcopi super caput illius teneant Another taken out of the Fourth Council of Carthage WHen a Priest is Ordained the Bishop Blessing him and holding his hand upon his head likewise all the Priests that are present shall lay their hands upon his head by the hand of the Bishop The Ritual of Gelatius Pope Written 900 years since ORdo qualiter Romana sedis Apostolicae Ecclesia Presbyteri Diaconi vel Subdiaconi eligendi sunt Mensis primi quarti septimi decimi Sabbatorum die in duodecim lectiones ad Sanctum Petrum ubi Missae celebrantur Postquam antiphonam ad introitum dixerint data oratione adnuntiat Pontifex in Populo dicens Auxiliante Domino Deo salvatore nostro Jesu Christo Iterum dicit Auxiliante Domino Deo salvatore nostro Jesu Christo eligimus in ordine Diaconi sive Presbyteri illum Diaconum sive Subdiaconum de titulo illo Si quis autem habet aliquid contra hos viros pro Deo propter Deum cum fiducia exeat dicat verumtamen memor sit communionis suae Et post modicum intervallum mox incipiunt omnes Kyrie eleison cum Letania hac expleta ascendunt ipsi electi ad sedem Pontificis benedicit cos à quo vocati sunt descendunt Stant in ordines suos benedictione percepta Sequitur oratio de bened require ipsam in quarto aut decimo mense The Ritual of Gelatius the Pope Written 900 years since THe Order how Priests Deacons Subdeacons are to be chosen in the Roman Church of the See Apostolick On the Sabbath of the First Fourth Seventh and Tenth Month at the 12 Lessons at St. Peters Church where Masses are celebrated After they have said the Antiphon to the Introitus after Prayer let the Bishop declare among the People saying Our Lord God and our Saviour Jesus Christ assisting us Again he sayes Our Lord God and our Saviour Jesus Christ assisting We chuse into the Order of Deacon or Priest that Deacon or Subdeacon of that Title If any one have any thing against these Men for Gods sake let him come forth with coufidence and speak yet let him be mindful of his Communion And after a small interval all forthwith begin Kyrie Eleison with the Letany this compleated the Persons chosen step up to the Bishops Seat and he Blesses them from whom they are called and they go down They stand in their Orders the Blessing being received Then follows a Prayer of Benediction as in the Fourth or the Tenth Month. What follows is all as above Ad Ordinandos Presbyteros Oremus dilectissimi c. the same in substance as above Then follows Consecratio Consummatio Presbyteri Item Benedictio All the same as above A Ritual of above 800 years standing This Ritual and the next were taken out of a Written Book kept in the Pontifical Chamber of the Vatican which the Pope used when he Officiated It may be seen in the Fifth Tome of St. Gregory POstquam antiphonam ad introitum dixerint data oratione venit Archidiaconus offert eum qui ordinandus est Pontifici ita dicens Postulat sanct a mater Ecclesia Catholica ut hunc praesentem diaconum ad onus Presbyterii ordinetis Interrogat Episcopus Scis illum dignum esse Respondet offerens quantum humana fragilitas nosse sinit scio testificor ipsum dignum esse ad hujus onus officii c. Tunc annnnciat Pontifex Populo Auxiliante Domino Deo c. the same as in the Ritual of Gelatius then follows Oratio ad Presbyteros Ordinandos Consecratio Hic vestis casulam Benedictio Patris filii Spiritus Sancti descendat super te ut sis benedictus in ordine sacerdotali offeras placabiles hostias pro peccatis at que offensionibus populi omnipotenti Deo cui sit honor gloria in secula seculorum Then Consecratio manus as above and nothing else A Ritual of above 800 years standing AFter they shall have said the Antiphon to the Introitus after Prayer comes the Archdeacon and presents him who is to be Ordained to the Bishop saying thus The Holy Mother the Catholick Church requires that ye Ordain this Deacon here present to the charge of Priesthood The Bishop Asks Do you know him worthy The Archdeacon Answers So far as humane frailty is suffered to know I both know and testifie him to be worthy to undergo the burden of this Office Then let the Bishop say to the People Auxiliante Domino Deo c. By the help of the Lord God c. Then the Prayer and Consecration the Priestly Vestment c. The Blessing of the Father Son and Holy Ghost descend upon thee that thou mayst be blest in the Priesthood and mayst offer acceptable Sacrifices for sins and offences of the people to Allmighty God to whom be Honor and Glory for ever and ever A Ritual taken out of a very antient Manuscript of the Vatican This contains nothing different from the former but only a word or two here and there changed without any essential difference There are Three other Rituals the one belonging to Corbie in France another is a Ritual that was used in England 800 years since and now belongs to the Church of Roane The Third belongs to the Church of Remes and was Written about 800 years since which all agree with that above There is another Ritual 700 years old This did belong to
one Constantinus Caetanus Abbot of a Monastery near Rome which contains all that the former Rituals have but is more ample and adds more Ceremonies and Prayers not any way belonging to the Essentials of Priesthood except that which is specified towards the end for the Bishop having recited the Consecration he totally omits that which is contained under the Title Consummatio Presbyteri as in the first Ritual then he puts the Stole on the right shoulder of him that is to be Ordained saying Accipe jugum Dei jugum enim ejus suave est onus ejus leve Receive the yoke of God for his yoke is sweet and his burthen light Then he puts on his Casula or Vestment saying Stola innocentiae induat te Dominus God put thee on the Stole of Innocence Then follows the Benediction Deus Sanctificationum c. as in the first Ritual which done Capiens oleum facit crucem super manus ambas ita dicens Consecrare sanctificare digneris Domine manus istas per istam unctionem ut quaecunque consecraverint consecrentur quaecunque benedixerint benedicantur sanctificentur in nomine Domini nostri Jesu Christi Hoc facto accipiat patenam cum oblatis calic●●● cum vino dicat Accipe potestatem 〈…〉 sacrificium Deo Missamque cebb●●re tam pro vivis quam pro defunctis in nomine Domini Benedictio Benedictio Dei Patris silii Spiritus Sancti descendet saper vos ut sitis benedicti in ordine Sacerdotali offeratis placabiles hostias pro peccatis at que offensionibus populi omnipotenti Deo cui est honor gloria per omnia Taking the Oyle he makes a Cross upon both his hands saying thus O Lord vouchsafe to Consecrate and Sanctifie these hands by this Unction that whatever they shall Consecrate may be consecrated and whatever they shall bless may be blessed in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ This being performed let him take the Paren with the Offerings and the Calice with the Wine let him say Receive the Power to offer Sacrifice to God and to say Mass both for the Living and the Dead in the Name of our Lord c. The Benediction Let the Blessing of God the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost descend upon ye may ye be blessed in the Order of riesthood and may ye offer Attoning Sacrifices for the Sins and offences of the People to Almighty God To whom be Honor and Glory c. This is the first Ritual that I can find which contains the touching of the Chalice with Wine and the Pattene with an Hoast with this Form Accipe potestatem c. as above which the Church of Rome hath ever since retained to this day Another Ritual belonging to the Church of Mens of 450 years standing contains all that the former hath But in the Margin it is written that the Bishop saith to them that are Ordained Accipe Spiritum Sanctum quorum remiserit is peccata remittuntur eis quorum retinueritis retenta sunt c. post sumptionem corporis Sanguinis Jesu Christi antequam dicatur postcommunio tunc Episcopus trahat unicuique casulam deorsum per scapulas osculans eum dicens Pax Domini sit semper tecum Receive the Holy Ghost whose sins ye remit are remitted and whose sins ye retain are retained And after the receiving the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ before the saying of the Post-Communion let the Bishop let down the Vestment from their shoulders kissing each of them and saying Let the Peace of our Lord be always with you This addition is all the difference between this and the last Ritual and in the perusal of these and several other Rituals I never met with any power to Remit and Retain sins communicated to the Ordained by such plain and express words after they had received the power of Priesthood Yet by the Custom of some Churches this form Accipe Spiritum Sanctum quorum c. is used in the beginning of the Ordination of Priests and accompanyeth the Imposition of hands But the present Practice of the Church of Rome is to give this power about the end of the Mass by the Imposition of Hands as the Matter and the words Accipe Spiritum Sanctum c. as the Form And because the Modern Rituals of the Latines contain nothing of moment more then what the Roman Pontifical expresseth I shall therefore wave them lest it might prove tedious to the Reader SECT III. A briefe Account of the Rituals of the Greeks Maronites c. WE begin with the Greeks and because the Antient Rituals have no more in them then what is contained in those of a later date I shall omit the former for after them to transcribe the more modern Pontificals were actum agere to do the same thing twice A Greek Ritual Written 800 years since kept in the Liberary of Cardinal Franciscus Barbarinus Ordinatio Presbyteri Postquam allata sunt Sancta dona in sacra mensa reposita sunt completus est Sanctus Hymnus mysticus Cherubicus charta consueta traditur Archiepiscopo in qua scriptum est Divina gratia quae semper infirma curat deficientia complet promovet hunc N.
