A56208	A short sober pacific examination of some exuberances in, and ceremonial appurtenances to the Common prayer especially of the use and frequent repetitions of Glory be to the Father, &c., standing up at it, at Gospels, creeds, and wearing white rochets, surplises, with other canonical vestments in the celebration of divine service and sacraments, whose originals, grounds of institution and prescription, are here truly related and modestly discussed ... / by William Prynne, Esq. ...

wherewith ye shalll be able to quench all the fiery darts of the Devtl And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God Praying always WITH ALL PRAYER AND SVPPLICATION not with common or Canon prayer alone to which too many now consine themselves and others watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all Saints Col. 13. 12 13 14 15. PVT ON therefore as the Elect of God holy and beloved bowels of mercy kindeness humbleness of minde meekness long-suffering forbearing one another and forgiving one another if any man have a complaint against any even as Christ forgave you so also do ye And above all these things PVT ON CHARITY which is the bond of perfectness and let the peace of God rule in your hearts to the which also ye called in one body and be ye thankeful Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one anothee in Psalms and Hymns and Spiricual Songs singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord And whatsoever ye do in word or deed do all in the name of the Lord Iesus giving thanks to God and the Father through him The putting on of all these Evangelical WHITE sacred garments the using of such Church prayers and musick in all Cathedrals Collegiate and Parochial Churches by our Bishops Ministers Deacons and others and the abandoning all Papal unevangelical illegal dadgerous Oathes of Canonical obedience from Ministers to Bishops not warranted by Law or Gospel thus censured inhibited by the whole second Council of Cavailon under Charls the Great about the year 112 ● cap. 12.

AN APPENDIX To the Fourth Section CONCERNING The Use of White Black and other coloured Garments both by Pagans Jews and Christians in Feasts Funerals Plays Inaugurations sacred Duties and their various mystical Significations Excellency and Dignity BEcause I would pretermit nothing which may either inform or satisfie the learned Readers of this Pacifick Examination relating to the use of White Vestments both among Pagans Iews and Christians upon several Civil and Religious Occasions Grounds Reasons I thought fit by way of Appendix to annex this ensuing learned Discourse of Ioannes Gulielmus Stuckius Tigurinw concerning White Garments in his 2 d Book Antiquitatum Convivialium cap. 26.

with me in WHITE for they are worthy Ergo Bishops must wear white Rochets and Surplices in time of Mass and Divine Service Acute Logick worthy of laughter rather then reply For 1. These few persons in Sardis were neither Bishops nor Priests these words being not spoken to nor of the Angel of the Church of Sardis whom our Bishops and Prelatists will needs have to be the sole Bishop of that Church but to others Therefore if any argument may be hence deduced for the use of Rochets or Surplices it is that lay Saints who have not defiled themselves with sins corruptions of the times but kept themselves nude●led must wear Rochets and Surplices not temporizing Bishops or Priests 3. They are promised hereafter to walk in white with Christ in heaven and that by way of reward witness ver 5. He that overcometh the SAME SHALL BE CLOATHED IN WHITE RAIMENT and I will not blot his name out of the book of life but I will confess his name before my Father and his Angels not commanded to say Mass or common-Common-Prayer in the Church on earth by way of duty ministry or distinction from other Saints 3. The white garments here meant are only the robes of eternal glory in heaven not white Rochets lawn sleeves or material Surplices as the abusers of this Text pretend and must acknowledge 6. The sixth text produced for Surplices and Rochets is Rev. 4. 4. And round about the throne were twenty four seats and upon the seats I saw twenty four elders sitting CLOATHED IN WHITE RAIMENT and they had on their heads crowns of gold Ergo Bishops must wear white Rochets Miters of gold and Priests white Surplices The sequel is denied 1. Because there is no Bishop but onely Elders mentioned in the Text. 2. These Elders are but twenty four and they only had white raiment 3. They sate in heaven upon thrones in their white robes not in any Church or Cathed●al on earth 4. They sate constantly in those white vestments and never did put them off 5. They had no other rayment on them but these white robes Therefore all Bishops and Priests if they will be like these Elders and pursue these presidents must wear no black doublets cassocks gowns cloaks Wastcoats but only white Rochets Surplices as they did 6. They sate in them upon Thrones and had all crowns of gold upon their heads If this then be a president for our lordly royal Prelats and Clergies punctual imitation they must all ●it upon thrones with golden crowns on their heads like Kings as well as with white Rochets Surplices on their backs like Prelates and Priests which I presume they yet dare not do and his Majesty with his Nobility will not now suffer should their pride and ambition prompt them to it 7. The seventh president insisted on is Rev. 6. 9 10 11. Where St. Iohn saw under the Altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held c. and WHITE ROBES were given to every one of them If any consequences can be hence deduced they are only these 1. That those Saints and Laymen who suffer martyrdom for the Word and testimony of God on earth shall have white robes not of fi●e linnen but of eternal glory given them by god for a reward in heaven Not that Bishops and Priests alone which were never slain nor martyred for Christ and none else but they must now wear white Rochets and Surplices on earth 2. These souls lay interred crying to God from under the Altar to avenge their blood on them that dwell on the earth Therefore they are no presidents or warrant for Bishops or Priests to wear Surplices or white Rochets when they officiate at or upon their new erected Altars and dispence Christs body and blood sacramentally to their people in their Cathedrals and parish Churches 3. These white robes were not material ones made of lawn or linen by Semstresses nor bought with money but spiritual and heavenly made and freely given unto them by God himself therefore Bishops and Priests who contend for material Rochets and Surplices from this Text must now quite renounce them and produce some better proof 8. This they presume to do in the eighth place from Rev. 7. 9 13 14. cha 15. 6. and cha 19. 14. which I shall couple together to make the proof more strong After this I beheld and a great multitude which no man could number of all Nations and kindreds and people and tongues stood before the throne and before the lamb CLOATHED WITH WHITE ROBES and palms in their hands And cried with a loud voyce Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne and unto the Lamb c. And one of the Elders answered saying unto me what are these WHICH ARE ARRAIED IN WHITE ROBES and whence came they And I said unto him Sir thou knowest And he said unto me these are they which came out of great tribulation and HAVE WASHED THEIR ROBES and MADE THEM WHITE IN THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB Therefore are they before the throne of God and serve him day and night in his Temple c. And the seven Angels came out of the Temple having the seven plagues CLOATHED IN WHITE and having their breasts girded with golden girdles And I saw heaven opened and behold a white horse and he that sate upon him was cloathed in a vesture dipt in blood and his name is called the Word of God And the Armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses CLOATHED IN WHITE LINNEN FINE AND CLEAN Ergo Bishops and Priests ought always to wear white Rochets and vestments in time of Mass Sacraments and Divine service Can any wise men or fools either forbear laughter at such a ridiculous conclusion from these premises as Durantus Walden with other Papists and some of our own Prelates and Ceremony-mongers deduce from them with great seriousness but little candor and sobriety Especially if they well consider 1. That those arraied in white robes Rev. 7. 9 13 14. were not Bishops Priests or Ecclesiastical persons alone or under any such capacity but a great number which no man could number of all Nations and kindreds and people and tongues Therefore if any proper consequence can be hence deduced in relation to white Rochets or Surplices it is only this That all sanctified regenerate Christians Saints of what nations kindred people and tongues soever ought to wear white Rochets and Surplices Secondly All this innumerable multitude of all nations and people thus cloathed with white robes stood clad continually in them before the Throne and Lamb serving God in them day and night and never put them off having no other vestments besides vers 15 16 17. Therefore if this Text be pressed home in relation to Bishops Priests Ministers they ought always to wear their Rochets and Surplices day and night but no vestment else and never to put them off and always to stand
