That the Priests intention is necessarily required to cons●crate the Elements and that no more of them is consecrated then he intends to consecrate and laies his hands on Tenthly In the words prescribed to be used in the very delivery of the bread and Wine after consecration there is a most notorious alteration made by way of an I●dex Expurgatorius with this Prelates owne hand The auncient English forme stood thus The Body of our Lord Iesus Christ which was given for thee preserve thy Body Soule unto everlasting life AND TAKE AND ●ATE THIS IN REMEMBRANCE THAT CHRIST DIED FOR THEE AND FEED ON HIM IN THY HEART BY FA●●H WITH THANKSGIVING The Blood of our Lord Iesus Christ that was shed for thee preserve thy Body and Soule unto everlasting lif● AND DRINKE THIS IN REMEMBRANCE THAT CHRISTS BLOOD WAS SHED FOR THEE AND BE THANKFVLL But the Bishop thought good to curtall these clauses by dashing out the latter words NOTE And take and eate this in R●memberance that Christ died for thee and feed on him in thine heart by faith with thanksgiving in the ne And drinke this in rememberance that Christs blood was shed for thee and be thankefull in the other● adding only this Rubricke in stead of them Here the party receiving shall say Amen and also after the receiving of the Cup. And accordingly these passages were omitted in the printed book Now what might be the mistery of this notable alteration surely it could be noe other But first to conforme it to the very Roman Missall and Order of the M●sse with which it now accords as will appeare by this Paralell The Body of our Lord Iesus Christ which was given for thee preserve thy body and Soule unto everlasting life here the party receiving shall say Amen * Missale Romanum Ri●us Celeb● Missam p. 21.

In the very close of the last Rubricke for the Communion there is this notable alteration and insertion for the same purpose NOTE THOUGH IT BE LAWFULL TO HAVE WAFER BREAD which the Papists use it shall suffice that the Bread be such as is usuall And whereas the old Rubricke was If any of the Bread and Wine remaine the Curate shall have it to his owne use It is thus altered in the new And if any of the Bread and Wine remaine which is consecrated it shall be reverently eaten and drunke by such of the Communicants only as the Presbyter which celebrates shall take unto him But it shall not be cursed out of the Church And to the

end there may be little left he that Officiates is required to consecrate with the least and then if there be want the words of Consecration may be repeated againe over more either Bread or Wine the Presbyter beginning at these words in the prayer of Consecration Our Saviour in the same night that he was betrayed tooke c. Finally in the commination against sinners he hath made these insertions Prayers to be used diverse times of the yeare AND ESPECIALLY ON THE FIRST DAY OF LENT COMMONLY CALLED AS HWEDNESDAY is added Brethren in the Primitive Church there was a godly Discipline that at the begining of Lentsuch persons as were notorious sinners were put to open penance and punished in this world which he thus alters were put to open penance did humbly submit themselves TO UNDER GOE PUNISHMENT IN THIS WORLD Note Which alteration makes way and gives good coulor for the introduction of Popish Confession and Penances imposed by Priests the end no doubt for which it was made To conclude Whereas there were diverse godly-prayers printed at the end of the common Prayer Book after the Psalms to be used for sundry purposes some whereof were made use of in private families Morning and Evening the Arch-Bishop gives this direction in the Margin concerning the expunging of them with his own hand His M●●●sty commands That these prayers following or any other for they are different in severall editions BE ALL LEFT OUT and not printed in your Lyturgie Which command was accordingly observed Now I beseech you judge by all these particulars what the Archbishops designe was in making all these alterations additions and indeavouring to obtrude this Common-P●ayer Book and new Lyturgy upon the Church of Scotland without consent of their Parliament or Generall Assembly and what just cause our Brethren of Scotland had to oppose and resist them as they did This Service Book being printed in Scotland Note with these and sundry other alterations and additions wherein it differed from the English in the Yeare 1637. the Arch-Bishop having first caused Mr. Prynne Doctor Bastwicke and Master Burton to be severly censured pillered stigmatized cropped off all their Eares and sent them close pri●oners to sundry remote Castles for opposing his popish Innovations here in England which strook an extraordinary terror into many here as he conceived would have terrified all from any future opposition of his Popish designes elsewhere tooke occasion immediately after their censures to endeavour to set this Service Book on ●oote in Scotland by a meare Arbitrary power For which purpose he gave order that this Book should be publikly read in all Churches within the City of Edenborough in Iuly 1637. about which time he writ this Letter to the Lord Treasurer of Scotland concerning the Priory and other Lands which the Bishops of Scotland laboured to get in possession to augment their revenues and the affaires of that Church My good Lord S. In Christo. YOur Lordships of Iune 26. came to my hands on Sunday Iuly 2. And they were the first I received out of Scotland since your returne thither save onely that I had one from the Kings Advocate in answer to mine and one from my Lord of Bre●●en And I confesse I did and doe a little wonder at it considering how many Letters I writ and what their contents were So I was glad to see one come from Your Lordship till I read it but then I confesse I was much troubled to see things goe on there in such a way For I thought we had beene happily come to an end of those troubles My Lord I have much a doe to read some words in your hand-wrig●ting and some things concerning that Kingdome I understand not Betweene these two if I mistake any thing I heartily pray you it may goe pro non scripto And now for Instance I confesse I doe not well understand what that particular is at which my Lord of St. Andrewes checks but what ever it be I am sorry his Grace will not privately debate it before it come in publike Or since he cannot gaine his Commission in Exchequer hee will take a course before the Commission of surrenders that may bee prejudiciall to the Archbishoprick For I hope hee will not thinke of any advantagious way to particular persons with disadvantage to the publike His Majesties intention certainly is that all mortifications to Bishopricks or other pious uses should have all immunities for the advantage of the Church that may bee had And if my Lord of Saint Andrewes either by the Commission to which His Majesties hand was gotten or by valuation before the Commission of surrenders depart from the good of the Church in the particular of the Prio●y I must be sorry for it but certainly the Kings bounty must not be abused Only I beseech your Lordship looke carefully to it that my Lord Arch-Bishop have no prejudice for it seemes exceeding strange to me that any thing should be attempted by him in this that is not pregnantly for the Churches good For the Commission of surrenders you know my opinion of it and of whom I learn'd it And I hope before these Letters come to you you will understand His Majesties pleasure concerning that Commission from the Earle of Sterling To your Lordships demands and desires I give you briefly this answer First I heartily thanke you that you are minded once more in a private way to move my Lord Chancellour to alter his intended course by debate there or from hence if there bee any use of me and I heartily pray you so to doe And if you think fit you may tell him t is my desire as well as yours For I have not at this time written any one word of this businesse Secondly If the Kings intentions for the laying the foundation of the Cathedrall Church of Saint Andrewes will in this way my Lord Chancellour now takes bee wholly eluded you must by all good and faire meanes prevent it And if you cannot so doe it you must acquaint His Majestie with it before it be too late Thirdly I doe hereby heartily pray you to stop all things which come to your knowledge NOTE if you finde the Church prejudged or any thing intended contrary to the generall course introduced in favour of the Church And I assure my selfe that His Majestie will thank you for the service Lastly Your Lordship did understand me right and I am still of opinion that more care is to bee taken in the settling of all these Church businesses for the dignitie and advantage of the places themselves And that course I beseech you hold for those things which come within your power And yet I shall still desire the present incumbent may be considered also where it may be without prejudice to the place it selfe in perpetuity This hath been one of the heavyest Termes that ever I indured NOTE and it seemes you have had troubls enough The best is the

Booke which my Lord Rosse brought the additions which are made to the Book I now sent But if you finde the Book of my Lord Rosses and this to differ in any thing that is materiall there you are to follow this later Booke I now send as expressing somethings more fully And now that your Lordship sees all of your animadversions which the Kings approved written into this booke I shall not need to write largely to you what the reasons were why all of yours were not admitted for your judgement and modesty is such that you will easily conceive some reason was apprehended for it Yet because it is necessary that you know some what more distinctly I shall here give you a particular accompt of some things which are of most moment and which otherwise perhaps might breed a doubtfullnesse in you And first I thought you could not have doubted but that the Magnificat c. was to be printed according to the Translation of King Iames for that was named once for all And that translation is to be followed in the Epistles and Gospells as well as in the Psalmes Where I pray observe in the Title-page of the Psalmes in the booke I now send an alteration which I thinke my Lord Rosses booke had not And if you have not printed those Psalmes with a Colon in the middle of every verse NOTE as it is with ours ordinarily in the English it is impossible those Psalmes should ever be well sung to the Organ And if this error be run into it must be mended by a painfull way by a pen for all such Bookes as the Chappell Royall useth and then by one of them the next impression of your Liturgie may be mended wholly Secondly in the Creed of Saint Athanasius We can agree to no more emendations no not according to our best Greeke Copies then you shall finde amended in this Booke Thirdly though the Bishops there were willed to consider of the Holy Dayes yet it was never intended but that the Office appointed for every of them should be kept in the Liturgie and the consideration was on●y to be of the observation of them Fourthly for the sentences at the Offettorie We admit of all yours but Wee thinke with all that diverse which are in our Booke would be retained together with yours As namely the 2d 4th 6th 7 8. 9. 10. 13. 14. 15. Fifthly I would have every Prayer or other Action through the whole Communion named in the Rubrick before it NOTE that it may be knowne to the people what it is as I have begun to doe in the Prayer of Consecration and in the memoriall or Prayer of oblation Fac similiter Sixtly We doe fully approve the Collect of Consecration and Oblation should preceed and the Lords Prayer follow next and be said before the Communion in that order which you have exprest but for the Invitation Cons●ssion Absolution Sentences Preface and Doxologie We thinke they stand best as they are now placed in our Liturgie and as for the Prayer of humble accesse to the holy Communion that will stand very well next before the Participation Seaventhly I have ordered a Rubrick in the Margin of this Booke according as you desire to direct him that celebrates when to take the Sacrament into his hand Namely to take and breake and lay hands on the Chalice as he speakes the words For certai●ly the practise of the Church of England therein is very right And for the objection that we should not doe it till we expresse our Warrant so to doe which you conceive is in these words Do this c. I Answer 1. That those words Do this c are rather our Warrant for the Participation or Communication then the Consecration 2. That our repeating what Christ did is our Warrant to doe the same being there to commanded 3. That the whole Action is Astus continuus and therefore though in our saying Do this followes after yet it doth and must be intended to that which We did before and comes last to seale and confi●me our Warrant for doing so And so t is in the other Sacrament of Baptisme where we take the Child first and Baptise it and then afterwards Wee say We receive this Child c. Which in Actu continu● must needs relate to the preceeding act for the Child was actually received into the Church by the very act of Baptisme it selfe And this is but our Declaration of that Reception And Whereas you write that much more might have beene done if the times would have borne it I make noe doubt but there might have beene a fuller Addition But God be thanked this will doe very well and I hope breed up a great deale of devout and religious pietie in that Kingdome Yet I pray for my Farther satisfaction at your best leisure ●●aw up all those particulers which you thinke might make the Liturgy perf●ct whether the times will beare them or not And send them safe to me I will not faile to give you my judgment o● them Note and perhaps put some of them to further use at least in my owne particular One thing more and then I have done In his Majesties authourising of the notes in this book pre●ixed at the begining of it though he leave a liberty to my Lords the Archbishops of St. Andrewes Brethre● the Bishops who are upon the pl●ce upon apparent reason to vary some things Yet you must know and in●orme them that his Majestie having viewed all these additions hopes there will be no need of change of any thing and wil be best pleased with little or rather no alteration So wishing all prosperity to that Church and a happy finishing of your Liturgie and health to my Brethren the Bishops I leave you to the Grace of God and rest Lambeth Aprill 20. 1636. Your Lordships very loving Freind and Brother W. Cant. This Letter gives us very much light concerning the proceedings of the Archbishop in the Scottish Liturgie the Scottish Bishops sending all their Notes and alteratio●s of it doubts concerning it to him from time to time as to their only O●icle all which I have at large but pre●ermit in silence and receiving his directions which were punctually observed By which it appeares how vaine and false this excuse of his concerning this businesse is which hee drew up with his owne hand since his imprisonment in the Tower where I founde it thus indorsed and superscribed by him The * * But his own Letters the subsequent passages manifest it to be● false true Narrative concerning the Scottish Service Book Doctor Iohn Maxwell the late Bishop of Rosse came to me from his Majesty It was during the time of a great sicknesse which I had Anno 1629 which is 11. yeares since The cause of his comming was to speake with me about a Lyturgie for Scotland At this time I was so extreame ill that I saw him not And had death
