Parliament and doctrine of the church of England Concerning addition and alteration specified in the act there be divers and sundry other alterations and some additions also in the parish booke differing from the booke of King Edward in wel-nigh l. materiall poyntes And for the vse of which pointes if the Kings Iudges and Iustices should as strictly and rigorously proceed as the Bb. have done and yet doe for the not vse of the Su●plice Crosse they might bring all the ministers of the church within danger of sixe monethes imprisonment and of the losse of one yeares profite of all their spirituall promotions to the King For these words of the statute that all and singular ministers in any Cathedrall or Parish church c. be bound to say and vse the Mattens Evensong celebration of the Lords Supper and administration of each of the Sacramentes and all their common and open prayer in such order and forme as is mentioned in the said booke so authorized by Parliament in the fifth sixth yeeres of the Raigne of King Edward the sixth with one alteration c. and none other or otherwise These wordes I say doe as exactly and precisely bind all Ministers to vse the book of King Edw. and none other or otherwise in all poyntes excepting the excepted as they binde anie Ministers to vse the rites ceremonies mencioned in the said booke But how can any Minister vse that order of service and none other or otherwise which is appointed in the booke of fift and sixt Edw. 6. excepting the excepted when as some other order of service exceptinge the excepted is concluded within the booke provided by the Parishioners And for the vse of which booke rather then for refusall of the vs● of which booke a minister is punishable by the statute And to make the thing which we have in hand to be vndeniable without cavil namely that the booke provided by the Parishioners is not that booke which is authorised by act of Parliament it is to be noted besides the alterations and additions specified in the statute that there is one great and mayne alteration betweene the two bookes of sundrie chapters appointed to be read for the first lessons at Mattens Evensong vpon divers festivall dayes Which alteration also it is evident that the same was made generally and for the most part from the better to the worse namely from the canonicall scriptures to the Apocriphall writings from whole chapters to peeces of chapters and that as it seemeth not without fraud and collusiō to the Queene Realm The proofe of which alteration is apparantly scene by the severall kalenders of both bookes Vnto which kalenders for the first second lessons except the same be proper lessons at morning and evening prayer the minister is referred For in a Rubrick before Te Deum at morning prayer it is said There shal be read two lessons distinctly with a loude voyce the first of the old testament the second of the new like as they be appointed by the kalender except there be proper lessons assigned for that day And in the order for evening prayer it is thus said Then a lesson of the old Testament as is appointed likewise in the kalender except there be proper lessons appointed for that day And after Magnificat then a lesson of the new Testament Now these first and second lessons whether they be proper or not proper lessons assigned by the parish booke that many of them doe vary from th● first and second lessons appointed by the booke of 5. and 6. Edw. 6. is plainly to be seene not only by the kalenders of both bookes but also by the order appointed for proper lessons A paterne whereof at certeyne feast dayes followeth   Kalender of King Edwards originall printed booke Kalender of the Parishes printed booke Stevens day Morning prayer 1. lesson Esa 56 Morning prayer 1. lesson Pro. 28 Evening prayer 1 lesson Esa 57 Evening prayer 1. lesson Eccle. 4.

Lessons proper for holy dayes From whence it followeth that all those dayes wherein proper lessons are to be read are by that title accompted to be holy dayes which is repugnant to a Rubricke of the same booke entituled These to bee observed for holy dayes and none other Out of which Rubrick amongst a number of holy dayes there specified six dayes be secluded from being holy dayes for the which six dayes notwithstāding proper lessons are appointed to be read as vpon holy dayes and these six dayes be the dayes following viz. the day of the cōversion of Paule Barnabes day Wensday and Thursday before Easter Goodfriday and Easter even It seemeth therefore not to be so safe a matter as men are borne in hand it is for ministers absolutely to subscribe that there is nothing in the whole booke of common prayer repugnant to the holy worde of God seeing there is so grosse and palpable a repugnancie in the booke it selfe Consentiet null● qui secum dissidet ipse Vnto which repugnancie also may be added an other repugnancy more absurd For besides the alterations and additions before specified and not comprised in the statute there is a Rubrick added which not only repugneth the booke of K. Edward but also crosseth the kalender aswell of the parish booke it selfe as of the booke of K. Edward By which Rubrick also there is a detraction from the booke of K. Edward worse then the former of the Letany Because this Rubrick appointeth onely part of the first chapter of Saint Matthew and part of the third chapter of Saint Luke to be read whensoever by the kalender or booke those chapters come to be read Whereas the kalender of both bookes appointeth the whole first chapter of Saint Matthew the whole third chapter of Saint Luke to be read vpon divers dayes in the yeare As for example both bookes on the first Sunday after the nativitie appoint the whole first chapter of Saint Matthew to be read for the Gospell Which whole chapter also is appointed by the kalenders of both bookes to be read for the second lesson of morning prayer on the second day of lanuary the third of May and the 31. of August The like is to be observed by the kalenders for the reading of the whole third chapter of Saint Luke for the second lesson at morning prayer vpon the 21. of February the 19. of Iune and the 17. of October But these chapters are no part of the Booke of cōmon prayer and by the Preface before the second part of the Homilies a Minister may for some chapters of the old Testament read some chapters of the New as to him shall seeme to tend more to edification By your leave this your exception seemeth to be but an homelie frivoulous exception For though the chapters bee no part of the booke of common prayer yet be the chapters part of the matter of the common service of the church prescribed by the booke yea and the formall and orderly reading of such and such chapters at such such times is part also of the order and forme of saying the same service Insomuch as neither Mattens nor Evensong in matter forme can be song or said without the chapters be read And as for the preface to the Homilies that by the same the minister is at libertie to leaue some chapters of the old for some chapters of the new Testament for first or second lesson what doeth that helpe the falsification of the parish booke when the same in place of six and twentie or thereabouts of Canonical hath appointed so many of Apocriphall chapters vpon feast dayes to bee read Or how can the Preface exempt a Minister from being punishable before the Kinges Iustices if he shall follow some private preface and breake the Kings publike edict But both bookes agree in many pointes and namely that the Minister in Baptisme shall make a crosse vpon the childes forehead shall say We signe thee with the signe of the crosse c. And therefore how soever the bookes may differ in some moe pointes then are mentioned in the Statute yet cleane to disavow the book of common prayer provided by the Parishioners not to bee the booke of common prayer which the Ministers in their dayly minist●atiō are bound to vse is but a cavill and reproveth the whole state of Prelacie and of the Realme who have received and vsed the same booke ever since the first yeare of our late Queenes Raigne King Henrie the eight writing to the Emperour against the Pope telleth him that a free man ignorant of his freedome doth not therefore become a bondman because ignorantly he submitteth him selfe to servitude No more say we is the State of the Realme lyable to reproofe when having committed the ordering of these affayres to the fidelitie and circumspection of the Clergie it hath bene abused by the Clergie Howsoever the State then of the Realme have received and vsed the booke attayned and gotten by the Parishioners it mattereth not to the point in question For if the Clergie vnwitting to the State have caused or suffered a booke to bee printed and
