 amhi^ruity aH to thoir uieanin^', whaUivor difticulty thm'e 
 might h« in thoir appliaitioi^, until, in a judgmont foiuuhtd, 
 acconling to the I^)rd (.'hit'f Baron of England, " not upon 
 law hut upon policy," and given to phsaso a peiwiciiting 
 society of PiotrstantH, a Lord Ohaneollor of England told a 
 wondoring worhl that tlio phrase "to Ih) retaine<l and 
 to ho in UHo," mmiw '*not to ho retained or to \m 
 HHod." He invoked the force t)f a rOguhitiou of " tlu* HtJir 
 Ohamher " to prevent other memhern of hin Couil; from 
 ■ CNpreHsing their diHHent from his strikingly original inter- 
 pretation. That judgment Imving hoen tivated with the 
 contempt which it deserved, there can he no douht uhout 
 the luw— certainly not in countries like this, where Privy 
 Council "judgments" pronounced hy Lord Chancelloi-s have 
 no force, but where the law of tht? Prayer Book is un- 
 changed. _ 
 
 The law of the Prayer Book then being plain, what has 
 been the practice? Owing, partly tp Puritan prejudice, 
 ignorance, and violence, and partly to sloth and unfaithful- 
 ness, on the part of the authorities, wliile hardly one in a. 
 hundred of the clergy has kept the Church of England's law 
 as to the /requenoij of celebration, not one at all until recent 
 years has kept her laws as to the inmfe of its ministration. ' 
 But the law has not been rej^aM by disuse, and thirty 
 years ago, the late Bishop of Exeter declared, that if any = 
 congregation would provide the legal vestments for the Holy 
 Communion, lie would require the Clergyman to wear them.

 trying times than these, she has most persiHtently inaiiitaineU ; 
 
 hut I have neither space nor time to state them hero. 
 
 Now heing mo^t deeply convinced, that the mind and 
 laws of the Prayer Book of tin » (liurcli of England ar(^ what 
 I have endtfavoured to explain, I have for years past set it 
 before jnp as my one principle of action, to attempt, us far 
 as my smalUufluence extends, to bring her laws and piactice 
 within my own wplune into such agret^ment as is possible. 
 Custom or usage, tlwjic-fore, which in not consisUmt with her 
 laws, has very little weight in my mind ; and I have little 
 respect or deference for antliority which is directed agaiiuHt 
 her specific enactment'*, or restrictive of her plain libertieK. 
 Where there is ditKculty of interjnetation, I shoiild be all 
 submission to my superiors ; but all the Ili.shoi)8 on the 
 Bench, supported by all the Judges in the land, eouhr not 
 make me believe, that the affirmation of th(! CJiurcb means 
 the negative of the Lor«l Chancellor. I confess myself 
 intellectually incapabh' of belifivinf/, that " to be retahied an<l 
 to be in use," means iiof to be r«'tained or to ho used ; and he

 But, of course, the opponents of change were out in 
 full fonce. They were alanned when wc sau'' the hi'di 
 est hymn of the ratholic Church, " Tht! (Jloria in 
 Excelsis ;" whirh of coui^se common .sense, without anv 
 rubric, would teach us should be sung. The singing of the 
 Psahns, i. e. the Sovyn of David, instead! of the wretched 
 songs of Tate an<l Brady, was regarded as an awful 
 " injioyation ;" an«l the introduction of those beautiful and 
 edifying Hymns, which are now the delight of so many.
