This  is  a  digital  copy  of  a  book  that  was  preserved  for  generations  on  library  shelves  before  it  was  carefully  scanned  by  Google  as  part  of  a  project 

to  make  the  world's  books  discoverable  online. 

It  has  survived  long  enough  for  the  copyright  to  expire  and  the  book  to  enter  the  public  domain.  A  public  domain  book  is  one  that  was  never  subject 

to  copyright  or  whose  legal  copyright  term  has  expired.  Whether  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  may  vary  country  to  country.  Public  domain  books 

are  our  gateways  to  the  past,  representing  a  wealth  of  history,  culture  and  knowledge  that's  often  difficult  to  discover. 

Marks,  notations  and  other  maiginalia  present  in  the  original  volume  will  appear  in  this  file  -  a  reminder  of  this  book's  long  journey  from  the 

publisher  to  a  library  and  finally  to  you. 

Usage  guidelines 

Google  is  proud  to  partner  with  libraries  to  digitize  public  domain  materials  and  make  them  widely  accessible.  Public  domain  books  belong  to  the 
public  and  we  are  merely  their  custodians.  Nevertheless,  this  work  is  expensive,  so  in  order  to  keep  providing  tliis  resource,  we  liave  taken  steps  to 
prevent  abuse  by  commercial  parties,  including  placing  technical  restrictions  on  automated  querying. 
We  also  ask  that  you: 

+  Make  non-commercial  use  of  the  files  We  designed  Google  Book  Search  for  use  by  individuals,  and  we  request  that  you  use  these  files  for 
personal,  non-commercial  purposes. 

+  Refrain  fivm  automated  querying  Do  not  send  automated  queries  of  any  sort  to  Google's  system:  If  you  are  conducting  research  on  machine 
translation,  optical  character  recognition  or  other  areas  where  access  to  a  large  amount  of  text  is  helpful,  please  contact  us.  We  encourage  the 
use  of  public  domain  materials  for  these  purposes  and  may  be  able  to  help. 

+  Maintain  attributionTht  GoogXt  "watermark"  you  see  on  each  file  is  essential  for  in  forming  people  about  this  project  and  helping  them  find 
additional  materials  through  Google  Book  Search.  Please  do  not  remove  it. 

+  Keep  it  legal  Whatever  your  use,  remember  that  you  are  responsible  for  ensuring  that  what  you  are  doing  is  legal.  Do  not  assume  that  just 
because  we  believe  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  for  users  in  the  United  States,  that  the  work  is  also  in  the  public  domain  for  users  in  other 
countries.  Whether  a  book  is  still  in  copyright  varies  from  country  to  country,  and  we  can't  offer  guidance  on  whether  any  specific  use  of 
any  specific  book  is  allowed.  Please  do  not  assume  that  a  book's  appearance  in  Google  Book  Search  means  it  can  be  used  in  any  manner 
anywhere  in  the  world.  Copyright  infringement  liabili^  can  be  quite  severe. 

About  Google  Book  Search 

Google's  mission  is  to  organize  the  world's  information  and  to  make  it  universally  accessible  and  useful.   Google  Book  Search  helps  readers

Firjl    SUNDAY    in    LENT. 

INSTRUCTION. 

■^INCE,  according  to  th€  council  of  l^rent^  the  whole^ 
5  life  of  a  Chriftian  ought  to  be  a  continual  pennance^ 
e  ought  to  embrace  with  fervour  that,  at  leaft,  which  is 
refcribed  during  the  time  of  Lent^  by  falling  with  all  thft 
laftnefs  the  Church  requires  of  fuch,  as  are  not  incapable 
lereof  thro'  age,  infirmity,  or  other  lawful  excufe.  To 
aimate  ourfelves  the  more  to  this,  we  ought  often  to  call 
)  mind  the  univerfal  pradice  of  our  pious  anceftors  in  the 
lith  of  Ckriflf  (and  which  fubfiflcd  near  twelve  hundred 
ears)  of  taking  only  one  meal  a  day  during  the  time  of 
/»/,  and  that  not  till  after  E'uemng-fong^yi\i\Q\i  was  always 
lid  towards  the  evening. 

We  muH  carefully  avoid  feeking  to  plcafe  our  taile  in 
le  choice  and  feafoning  of  fuch  meats  as  are  allowed  in 
snt ;  for  to  do  that,  according  to  the  holy  Fathers,  would 
e  only  changing  dainties,  and  not  retrenching  them :  It 
rould  be  nouriftiing  fcnfiiality  inftead  of  extinguifhing 
: :  And  it  may  be  faid,  that  it  would  not  be  fatisfying  the 
bligaiion  of  Lentj  as  it  would  be  no  longer  mortifying 
le  body,  or  doing  pcnnance. 

This  firft  fall  regards  only  thofe,  who  have  attained  to 
certain  age  of  life,  and  who  can  go  thorough  with  it, 
rithout  prejudice  of  their  health.  But  there  is  another 
ift,  from  which  no  one  is  exempt,  and  which  admits  of 
o  difpenfation.  This  confilb  in  avoiding,  with  a  parti- 
ular  care,  whatever  may  lead  to  fin.  It  is  for  tWs  great 
nd  important  end,  that  we  muft  drive  againft  our  bad 
abits  with  fre(h  zeal :  We  mull  mortify  ourfelves,  and 
e  temperate  in  every  thing,  by  retrenching  from  ouror- 
inary  converfation,  fleep.  and  moll  innocent  divcrfions, 
lat  \vc  may  be  able  to  fpend  more  time  in  prayer,  rc- 
rcmcnt,  and  the  cxcrcifcs  of  a£ts  of  charity. 

Such  are  the  intentions,  fuch  the  defires  of  the  Catho- 
ck  Church.  Can  there  therefore  be  a  greater  abfurdity 
lan  to  hear  Qhx]Xnm  ta)king  in  c/ie/r  publick  prayers  of 


20  Firjl   SUNDAY 

macerating  their  bodies,  o^ Jighing  zn^ groaningyxvAtx  tfic"^ 
weight  of  their  fins,  of  being  terrified  with  the  judgments 
of  God,  while  they  content  themfelves  with  complying  . 
outwardly  (and  that  too  often  very  imperfeSiiy)  with  the 
ceremony  of  a  bodily  fall;  notwithftanding  there  is  the 
fame  mirth,  jollity,  good  cheer,  diverfions,  and  recreations  ' 
going  on,  as  in  other  parts  of  the  year.     This  is  not  the  ' 
fail  the  Lord  hath  chofen,  as  appears  from  the  exprefo 
declaration  of  God  himfelf  Jn  the  Lejfon  of  Ajh-Wed- 
ftefday^  and  that  of  Friday  before  the  firft  Sunday  in  Lent. 

In  order  therefore  not  only  to  ufe  the  language  of  the  ■ 
ChiKch,  but  likewife  to  follow  it*s  fpirit  and  diredlions, 
we  muft  join  to  our  fading,  prayer,  retirement,  and  the  ' 
avoiding  whatever  leads  to  fin,  the  virtues  of  continency 
and  alms-deeds,  which  were  formerly  looked  on  as  infe- 
parable  from  Lenty  and  other  fafts.     We  frequently  beg  '' 
the  grace  of  continency  in  the  publick  prayers  of  the  ' 
Church  during  that  holy  time,  and  the  pradice  of  it  was 
formerly  impofcd  as  a  precept.     With  regard  to  alms,  the 
holy  Fathers  look  on  them  fo  ncceiTary,   that  they  fay 
our  fafts  will  avail  nothing  without  them ;  and  the  defigu 
of  the  church  is,  and  the  practice  from  the  moft  early 
times  was,  that  we  fhould  live  fo  in  Lent  and  other  Fajt^ 
ing'days,  as  to  be  able  to  retrench  confiderably  from  the  ' 
cxpences  of  our  tables,  in  order  to  beftow,  what  was  fo  • 
retrenched,  on  the  poor. 

Thofe  that  are  entangled  in  any  habitual  mortal  fin,  can  ' 
do  notliing  better  for  their  falvation,  or  more  agreeable  to 
the  fpirit  of  the  Church,  than  to  approach  the  facrament ' 
of  pennance  at  the  beginning  of  Ltiit ;  that  after  having 
taken  time  to  become  fenfible  of  the  enormity  of  their 
fins,  to  figh  and  weep  before  God,  and  to  fatisfy,  as  far  as 
they  are  able,  his  jullice,  they  may  hope  to  obtain  at  the 
end  of  Lentf  the  grace  of  reconciliation,  wliich  the  Church 
grants  to  contrite  and  humble  finners.

jjT  that  time:  Jefus  was  led  by  the  fpirit  into  the 
'^  defcrt,  to  be  tempted  by  the  Devil.  And  when 
he  had  failed  forty  days  and  forty  nights  h€  was  af- 
terwards hungry.  And  the  tempter  coming,  faid 
to  hiiQ :  If  thou  be  the  Son  of  God,  command  that 
thefe  Aones  be  made  bread.  But  he  anfwered,  and 
faid,  It  is  written :  Nat  by  bread  alone  doth  manlive^ 
hut  by  every  word  that  procecdeth  out  of  the  mouth  of 
GoJ"^.  Then  the  Devil  took  him  up  into  the  holy 
city,  and  fet  him  on  a  pinnacle  of  the  temple,  and 
faid  to  him :  If  thou  be  the  Son  of  God  caft  thyfelf 
down,  for  it  is  written:  He  hath  given  his  Angels 
charge  over  thee^  and  in  their  hands  Jhall  they  bear 
thee  up^  left  perhaps  thou  dojh  thy  foot  againji  ajlone, 
Jefus  faid  to  him:  It  is  agam  written:  Thou  fhalt 
not  tempt  the  Lord  thy  God.  Again  the  Devil  took 
him  up  into  a  very  high  mountain,  and  fliewed  him

mi  make  it  ready  for  me,  that  I  may  eat  and  blefs 
dice  in  the  fight  of  the  Lord,  before  I  die.  Now 
therefore,  my  Ion,  take  my  counfel :  and  going  to 
tke  flock,  bring  me  two  of  the  beft  kids,  that  I 
■ay  make  thereof  for  thy  father  meat  fuch  as  he 
liketh :  which  thou  flialt  carry  in,  that  when  be 
brdi  eat  it,  he  may  blefs  thee  before  he  dieth.  To 
vhom  yac6b  anfwered  :  Thou  knoweft  my  bro- 
ther EUtu  is  an  hairy  man,  and  I  am  fmooth.  If 
ny  father  Aould  touch  me,  and  perceive  it,  I  fear, 
he  will  think,  I  would  have  deceived  him,  and  I 
ftall  bring  a  curfe  upon  me,  inftead  of  a  bleffing. 
His  mother  faid  to  him :  Let  this  curfe  fall  upon 
He,  my  fon  ;  obey  thou  only  my  voice,  and  go, 
fcich  me  what  I  told  thee.  He  went,  and  brought 
Ihem,  and  gave  them  to  his  mother.  And  me 
^fled  them,  as  flie  knew  his  father  liked  them. 
And  (he  put  him  on  the  beft  garments  of  Efau^

him  wine  alfo :  and  having  drunk  it,  he  faid  to  him 
Come  near,  and  kifs  me,  my  fon :  and  he  caim 
near  and  kifled  him.  And  as  foon  as  he  perceiya 
the  perfume  of  his  clothes,  he  blefTed  him,  an< 
faid  :  Behold  the  perfume  of  my  fon  is  as  the  fmel

May  God  give  thee  of  the  dew  of  heaven,  and  o

talking  to  thee,  am  he.  And  immediately  his  dif- 
ciples  came,  and  wondered  to  fee  him  talking  with 
the  woman.  Yet  no  one  faid :  What  doft  thou  want, 
or  what  art  thou  talking  about  with  her  ?  The  wo- 
man then  left  her  pitcher,  and  going  into  the  city, 
faith  to  the  men  there :  Come  and  fee  a  man,  who 
hath  told  me  all  that  ever  I  did  :  Is  he  the  Chrtft  ? 
They  went  then  out  of  the  city,  and  came  to  him. 
In  the  mean  time  his  difciples  intreated  him,  faying: 
Mafter,  eat.  But  he  faith  to  them :  I  have  food 
to  eat,  which  you  know  nothing  of.  The  difciples  . 
therefore  faid  to  one  another :  Hath  any  one  brought 
him  any  food  ?  J^fus  faith  to  them :  My  food  is  to 
do  the  will  of  him  that  fent  me,  and  to  perfedl  his 
work.  Don*t  you  fay.  There  are  yet  four  months, 

•  and  then  cometh  the  harveft  ?  Behold  I  fay  to  you,

white  already  for  harvefl.  And  he  that  reapetb

etb, may  rejoice  together.  For  in  this  is  that  fay- 
ing true :  'Tis  one  that  foweth,  and  another  that 
reapeth  ;  I  fent  you  to  reap  that  for  which  you  la- 
boured not :  others  took  pains,  and  you  have  en- 
tered upon  their  labours.  And  many  of  the  Sama- 
ritans of  that  city  believed  in  him  on  the  word  of 
the  woman,  who  afiured  them :  He  told  me  all 
whatever  I  did.  And  when  the  Samaritans  were 
come  to  him,  they  befought  him  to  flay  there.  And 
he  continued  there  two  days.  And  many  more  be- 
lieved in  him  upon  his  own  word.  And  they  faid 
to  the  woman :  We  believe  now,  not  upon  thy 
word  :  for  we  have  heard  him  ourfelves,  and  know 
that  he  is  indeed  the  Saviour  of  the  world.

LESSON.     Dan,  xiii.  i,  62. 

/jV  tbtfi  days:  There  was  a  man  dwelt  in  5^- 
/r;/9;i,  whofe  name  was  Joachim  :  and  he  mar* 
.ried  a  woman  called  Sufannaj  the  .daughter  of 
Hildas^  very  beautiful  and  fearing  God.  For  her 
parents  being  righteous,  had  brought  up  their 
daughter  according  to  the  law  of  Mofes.  Now 
Jdochijn  was  very  rich,  and  he  had  an  orchard  ad- 
joining to  his  houfe:  and  the  ^Jews  reibrted  to  him, 
becauie  he  was  of  great  efteem  among  them.  In 
that  year  two  Elders  were  appointed  judges  over 
the  people,  concerning  whom  the  Lord  had  faid  : 
Iniquity  is  come  out  of  BabyUn  from  the  Elders 
the  Judges,  who  feemed  to  govern  <hc  people. 
Thefe  men  frequented  Joachim's  houfe ;  and  all, 
who  had  any  bufmefs  to  be  decided,  came  to  them. 
And  when  the  people  were  gone,  about  noon ; 
Sufanna  went  and  walked  about  in  her  hu{baiKl*8 
orchard.  And  the  Elders  faw  her  go  and  walk 
there  every  day :  and  they  burnt  with  luft  after  her ; 
and  they  perverted  their  underftanding,  and  turned 
away  their  eyes,  that  they  might  not  fee  heaven, 
nor  remember  righteous  judgments.  And  it  came 
to  pafs,  that,  when  they  had  pitched  on  a  fit  day, 
(he  went  in,  as  ihe  had  done  yefterday  and  the  day 
before,  only  with  two  maids,  and  had  a  mind  to 
bathe  in  the  orchard,  for  the  weather  was  hot.  And 
no  body  was  there  but  the  two  Elders,  who  lay 
hid,  and  beheld  her.  Then  fhe  faid  to  the  maids: 
Fetch  me  the  oil  and  wafliballs,  and  (hut  the 
orchard  doors,  that  I  may  bathe.  And  when  the 
maids  were  gone  ou(«,  the  two  Elders  arofe,  and 
running  to  her,  faid :  Behold  the  orchard-doors  are 
ihut,  and  no  body  feeth  us,  and  we  are  in  love  with 
thee  ;  therefore  yield  to  us,  and  lye  with  us.  And 
if  thou  wilt  not,  we  will  bear  witnefs  againfl:  thee, 
that  there  was  a  young  man  with  thee,  and  there- 
fore thou  fendedft  away  thy  maids.  Sufanna  fighed^ 
and  faid ;  I  am  diftreflcd  on  every  fide  ;  for  k  I  do

thisy  I  die :  and  if  I  do  it  not,  I  fhall  not  efcape 
your  hands.  But  it  is  better  for  me  without  fin  to 
fall  into  your  hands,  than  to  offend  in  the  fight  of 
God.  And  Sufanna  cried  out  with  a  loud  voice  ; 
and  the  Elders  alfo  cried  out  againft  her  :  and  one 
ran  to  the  orchard-door  and  opened  it.  And  when 
the  iervants  of  the  houfe  heard  the  noife  in  the 
orchard,  they  made  hafte  through  a  back-door  to 
fee  what  was  the  matter.  But  when  the  Elders 
had  told,  the  fervants  were  afhamed  very  much, 
becaufe  never  any  fuch  thing  had  been  faid  of  Su-' 
fanna.  And  the  next  day,  when  the  people  came 
to  Joachim  her  hufband,  the  two  Elders  alfo  came 
full  of  malice  againft  Sufanna^  refolving  to  put  her 
to  death.  And  they  faid  before  the  people  :  Send 
for  Sufanna  the  daughter  of  HelciaSy  Joachim's 
wife.  And  they  forthwith  fent  for  her.  And  (he 
came  with  her  parents  and  children  and  all  her  re- 
lations. And  her  friends  wept,  and  all  that  knew 
her.  Then  the  two  Elders  riflng  up  in  the  midft 
of  the  people,  put  their  hands  upon  her  head : 
and  {he  weeping  lifted  up  her  eyes  to  heaven,  for 
her  heart  trufted  in  God.  And  the  Elders  faid  : 
As  we  two  were  walking  alone  in  the  orchard, 
this  woman  came  in  with  two  maids  :  and  (hutting 
the  orchard-door,  (he  fent  the  maids  away.  And 
a  young  man,  who  was  hid,  came  to  her,  and 
lay  with  her.  But  we  being  in  the  corner  of  the 
orchard,  and  beholding  the  wickednefs,  ran  to 
them,  and  faw  them  lye  together.  But  we  could 
not  hold  the  young  man,  becaufe  he  was  tooftrong 
for  us  ;  but  openiDg  the  doors,  he  made  his  efcape. 
But  when  we  had  laid  hold  of  this  woman,  we 
a(ked  her,  who  the  young  man  was ;  but  (he  would 
not  tell  us :  of  all  this  we  are  witneiTes.  The  mul- 
titude gave  credit  to  them,  as  to  Elders  and  Judges 
of  the  people,  and  condemned  her  to  death.  Then 
Sufanna  cried  out  with  a  loud  voice,  and  faid  :  O 
Eternal  God,  who  JcnoweA  what  is  hidden^  nvW

And  as  fhe  was  led  to  execution,  the  Lord  r< 
up  the  holy  fpirit  of  a  youth  whole  name  was 
uiel:  and  he  cried  out  aloud  :  I  am  clear  of 
woman's  blood.      And  all  the  people  turning 
wards  him,  faid  :  What  is  that  which  thou 
faid  ?  Who  ftanding  in  the  midft  of  them,   i 
Are  you  fo  foolifh,  you  children  of  Ifrael^  \

back  to  judgment,  for  they  have  borne  falfe

onefrom  another,  and  I  will  examine  them, 
when  they  were  feparated  from  one  another 
called  one  of  them,  and  faid  to  him  :  O  thou

come  out  "*,  which  thou  haft  heretofore  comm 
in  giving  unjuft  judgments,  oppreffing  the  i;

iaweil  her,  tell  me  under  what  tree  thou  did!

"  legj  which  is  that  of  Tibirias :  and  a  great  mul- 
titude followed  him,becaufe  they  faw  xh^  miracles 
he  wrought  on  thofe  that  were  difeafed.  Jefut^ 
therefore  went  up  a  mountain  :  and  fat  there  with 
his  difciples.  And  the  Puffiver^  a  feaft  of  the  Jews^ 
vat  Dear.  When  Jefui  therefore  had  lifted  up  his

fbilip  anfwered  hi^  •  Two  hundred  penny-worth 
of  bread  is  not  enough  for  them,  for  every  one  to 
have  only  a  little  piece.  One  of  his  difciples,  Jn^^

J^us  faid  :  Make  the  men  fit  down :  for  th^re  was 
a  great  deal  of  grafs  in  that  place.  Then  the  men 
(at  down,  being  in  number  about  five  thoufand. 
Then  ye/us  took,  the  loaves ;  and  having  given 
thanks,  he  diftributed  them  to  thofe  that  were  fat 
down  :  as  likewife  of  the  fifhes,  as  much  as  they 
had  a  mind  for.  And  when  they  had  eat  enough, 
he  faid  to  his  difciples  :  Gather  up  the  fragments, 
which  are  left,  that  they  may  not  be  loft.  They 
gathered  the«i  up  therefore,  and  filled  twelve  baskets 
with  the  fragf»cnts  of  the  five  barley  loaves,  which

be  ftumbleth,  becaufe  he  hath  no  light.  Thus  he 
fpoke,  and  after  thefe  things,  be  faid  to  them  :  Our 
friend  La%arus  fleepeth  :  but  I  am  going  t6  raife 
him  from  ileep.  Then  his  difciples  (aid  :  Lord,  if 
he  deep,  he  will  recover.  But  yefm  fpoke  of  his 
death  ;  and  they  thought  he  had  fpoke  of  the  reft

Lazarus  is  dead  :  and  I  am  glad  for  your  fakes,  that 
I  was  not  there,  that  you  may  believe.  But  left 
us  go  to  him.  Then  faid  Thomas^  who  is  calIe/1 
Didymus^  to  his  fellow  difciples  :  Let  us  go  alfo, 
that  we  may  die  with  him.  Jefus  therefore  came, 
and  found  he  had  been  now  in  the  grave  four  days. 
(Now  Bethania  was  about  fifteen  furlongs  from  Ji^ 
rufaUm,)  And  many  of  the  Jews  had  come  to  mar^ 
tha  and  Mary  to  comfort  them  concerning  their 
brother.  Martha  therefore,  as  foon  as  (he  heard 
Jefus  was  coming,  went  to  meet  him  ;  but  Mary 
fat  at  home.  Then  Martha  faid  to  Jefus :  Lord, 
if  thou  hadft  been  here,  my  brother  had  not  died. 
And  even  now,  I  know,  whatever  thou  fhalt  afk 
of  God,  God  will  grant  it  thee,  y^i  faith  to  her  : 
Thy  brother  will  rife  again.  Martha  faith  to  him  : 
I  know  he  will  rife  again  at  the  refurredlion  on  the 
laft  day.  Jefui  faid  to  her  :  I  am  the  refurreftion

be  dead,  (hall  live  :  and  every  one  that  liveth,  and

that  thou  art  the  Chrijl^  the  Son  of  the  living  God,

this,  fhe  went  and  called  Mary\\tx  fifter  fecretly,

not  this  man,  who  opened  the  eyes  of  him  that 
was  born  blind,  have  prevented  his  death  ?  Jefui^ 
therefore  again  groaning  within  himfelf,  came  to 
tbe  monument.  And  it  was  a  cave :  and  a  ftone

there  four  days,  ^ifus  faith  to  her :  Did  not  I  tell 
thee,  that,  if  thou  wilt  believe,  thou  (halt  fee  the

UJui  lifting  up  his  eyes,  faid  :  Father,  I  thank 
thee,  that  thou  haft  heard  me.  And  I  knew  thou  al-

a  loud  voice  :  Lazarus^  come  forth.  And  imme-

hands  and  feet  with  grave-cloths,  and  his  face  was 
covered  with  a  napkin,  jfe/us  faid  to  them  :  Loofe

ho\i^  they  might,  by  ftratagem,  apprehend  Jefus^ 
and  put  him  to  death.  But  they  (aid  :  a.  hfot  on 
the  feftival-day,  left  perhaps  there  fliould  happen  a 
tumult  among  the  people.  C.  And  when  Jefus 
was  in  Betbania^  in  the  houfe  of  Simon  the  leper^ 
there  came  to  him  a  woman  having  an  alabafter- 
box  of  precious  ointment,  and  (he  poured  it  out 
upon  his  head,  as  he  was  at  table.  And  the  dif- 
ciples  feeing  it^  were  angry,  faying :  S.  To  what 
purpofe  is  this  wafte  i  For  it  mieht  have  been  fold 
at  a  good  price,  and  given  to  the  poor.  C.  But 
Jefus  knowing  this,  faid  to  them :  f  Why  difturb 
you  this  woman  i  For  (he  hath  performed  a  good 
work  towards  me.  For  the  poor  you  have  always 
with  you,  but  me  you  have  not  always.  For  this 
woman,  in  pouring  ointment  on  my  body,  has  done 
It  for  my  burial.  Amen  I  fay  to  you,  that  where- 
foever  this  gofpel  (hall  be  preached  in  the  whole 
world,  it  (hall  likewife  be  told,  what  this  woman 
hath  done,  in  remembrance  of  her.  C.  Then  one 
of  the  twelve,  called  Judas  the  Ifcarioty  went  to 
the  chief  priefts  and  (aid  to  them  :  S.  What  will 
you  give  me,  and  I  will  deliver  him  up  to  you  i 
C.  And  they  ordered  him  thirty  pieces  of  (ilver. 
And  from  that  time  he  fought  for  an  opportunity  of 
betraying  him.  Now  on  the  firft  day  of  the  feaft 
of  unleaven  bread,  the  difciples  came  to  Jefus^  fay« 
ing  r  S.  Where  wilt  thou  have  us  prepare  to  eat  the 
fctffiver  ?  C.  And  Jefus  faid  :  f  Go  into  the  city 
to  a  certain  man,  and  fay  to  him :  The  Mafter 
faith,  my  time  is  at  hand  :  I  will  keep  th^pajfover 
with  my  difciples  at  thy  houfe.  C,  And  the  dif- 
ciples did  as  Jefus  had  ordered  them,  and  made 
ready  the  paj/over.  And  when  it  was  now  even- 
ing, he  went  to  table  with  his  twelve  difciples. 
And  as  they  were  eating,  he  f^id :  f  Amen  I  fay* 
to  you  :  one  of  you  will  betray  me.  C.  And  being 
much  troubled,  they  began  every  one  to  fay  :  5. 
Is  it  Jy  Lord  i  C  And  he  ^Lufweun^^  faid  :  f  He

that  dippcth  his  hand  with  me  in  the  difh,  the  famf 
will  betray  me.    The  Son  of  Man  goeth  indeed^ 
as  it  is  written  of  him :  but  wo  to  that  man,  by 
whom  the  Son  of  Man  (hali  be  betrayed :  it  hadi 
been  better  for  that  man,  if  he  had  never  beea 
bom.     C.  Then  Judas^  who  betrayed  him,  an-^ 
fwering,  faid :  8.  Mafter,  is  it  1  ?   C.  He  faid  tn 
to  him :  f  Thou  haft  faid  it  ^*  C.  And  while  they? 
were  at  fupper,  Jefus  took  bread,  and  blefied  it,^ 
and  brbke  it,  and  gave  it  to  his  difcipies,  and  faid ;. 
t  Take  ye  and  eat :  this  is  my  body.  C.  And  taking 
the  cup,  he  gave  thanks,  and  gave  it  to  them,  fay- 
ing :  t  Drink  you  all  of  this :  for  this  is  my  blood  of 
the  New  Teinment,  which  (hall  be  fhed  for  many 
to  the  remiffion  of  fins.    But  I  fay  to  you,  I  will 
not  drink  henceforth  of  this  fruit  of  th6  vine,  till 
that  day,  when  I  (hall  drink  it  new  with  you  in  my 
father's  kingdom.   C.  And  having  faid  a  hymn, 
they  went  out  to  mount  Olivet.    Then  Jifits  faith 
to  them :  f  All  of  you  will  be  fcandalized  in  me 
this  night :  for  it  is  written :  /  willjirike  tbejbep^ 
herd  J  and  the  /beep  of  the  flock  Jhall  be  difperfed. 
But  after  I  am  rifen  again,  I  will  go  before  you 
into  Galilee.    C  Then  Peter  anfwering,  faid  to 
him  :   S.  Thouzh  all  the  reft  fhould  be  fcandalized 
in  thee,  yet  will  I  never  be  fcandalized.   C  Jefus 
faid  to  him  :  f  Jrnen^  I  fay  to  thee  :  this  night  oe- 
fore  the  cock  croweth,  thou  wilt  deny  me  thrice. 
C  Peter  faid  to  him  :  5.  Tho'  I  were  to  die  with 
thee,  yet  will  I  not  deny  thee.  C.  And  all  thedif-

!?2J^ BLESSING  of  theWATER. 

INSTRUCTION. 

THE  ofe  of  water  among  mankind,  whenever 
they  had  a  mind  to  expiate  their  faults,  to 
renew  their  folemn  engagements,  or  to  enter  upon 
exerdfes  of  piety  and  religion,  is  one  of  thofe  uhi« 
verfid  pra&ices  every  where  found,  where  there  are 
mny  footfteps  of  an  outward  wor(hip  remaining.  It 
was  no  invention  of  the  heathen  nations,  but  a  prac- 
tice that  came  to  them  by  primitive  tradition  from 
oiir£rft  father  jfdam  after  bis  fall,  as  an  acknow- 
ledgment of  being  defiled  with  fin,  and  expreffive  of 
that  purity  with  which  we  ought  to  approach  God. 
It  was  continued  by  Afofes  among  other  primitive 
praiSices  preparatory  tofacrifice;  and  is  ftill  found 
at  the  entrance  of  our  Churches;  and  the  fprinkling 
therewith  is  the  beginning  of  our  facrifice  on  the 
Iblemn  appointed  day  of  reft.  Salt  is  mixt  with  the 
water  to  keep  it  I'weet,  and  the  one  and  the  other 
are  folemnly  confecratedy  that  is  to  fay,  are  with- 
drawn from  all  profane  ufes,  to  be  applied  only  to 
thoie  of  reli|ion.  The  Charch  attributes  no  fuper- 
natural  ttkct  to  this  fan^lified  water,  but  what  ic 
may  pleafe  God  to  grant  to  it,  in  order  to  (hew  the 
force  of  the  prayers  of  his  Church,  or  to  recompenfe 
the  faith  of  fuch  as  ufe  it  with  the  refped  due  to 
what  hath  been  confecrated  and  fet  apart  for  the  ufes 
of  religion.  The  faithful  therefore  are  to  receive 
this  fprinkling  of  water  with  great  humility,  and  a 
forrow  for  their  fins,  reciting  the  50th  Pfalm  in 
whole  or  in  part :  And  afterwards  to  take  fome  of 
the  water  home  with  them  to  ufe  with  faith  and 
piety,  according  to  the  intention  of  the  Church,  at 
getting  up,  and  going  to  bed  j  in  ftorms  of  thunder

But  I  have  walked  in  my  innocency:  refcue  me,

Pr.  The  beginning  of  the  holy  Gofpel  accord* 
ing  to  John, 

P  Glory  be  to  thee,  P.  Gloria  tibi^  Do- 

O  Lord.  mine* 

IN  the  beginning  was  the  word,  and  the  word 
was  with  God,  and  the  word  was  God.  The 
fame  was  in  the  beginning  with  God.  All  things 
were  made  by  him  :  and  without  him  was  made 
nothing  that  was  made.  In  him  was  life,  and  the 
life  was  the  light  of  m^^n  :  and  the  light  (hineth  in 
darknefs,  and  darknefs  did  not  comprehend  it. 
There'  was  a  man  fent  from  God,  whofe  name 
was  John,  This  man  came  for  a  witnefs,  to  bear 
witncfs  of  the  light,  that  all  men  might  believe 
through  him.  He  was  not  the  light,  but  came  to 
bear  witnefs  of  the  light.  He  was  the  true  light, 
that  enlighteneth  every  man,  that  cometh  into  this 
world.  He  was  in  the  world,  and  the  woild  was 
made  by  him,  and  the  world  knew  him  not.  He 
came  unto  his  own,  and  his  own  received  him  not. 
But  as  many  as  received  him,  to  them  he  gave  power 
to  become  the  foris  of  God,  to  them  that  believe 
in  his  name.  Who  are  born,  not  of  blood,  nor  of 
the  will  of  the  flefli,  nor  of  the  will  of  man,  but 
of  God.  And  •  the  word  was  made  flesh, 
and  dwelt  among  us  (and  we  faw  his  glory,  the 
glory  as  of  the  only-begotten  of  the  Father)  full  of 
grace  and  truth. 

P.  Thanks  be  to  God.        P.  Deo  gratias.

Prayers  after  Communion. 

WHAT  return  fliall  I  make  the  Lord,  for 
what  he  hath  beftowed  upon  me  ?  I  will 
oiler  him  a  facrifice  of  praife  \  and  my  heart,  tranf- 
ported  with  joy,  (hall  fing  canticles  to  the  Lord, 
who  hath  heaped  his  blefHngs  on  me.  He  hath 
given  me  the  bread  of  heaven  ;  a  poor  mortal  crea- 
ture, furrounded  with  infirmity,  hath  eaten  the 
bread  of  Angels,  a  mofl  delicious  food,  which  be- 
ftows  immortality  on  thofe  that  eat  it  worthily. 
The  Lord  himfelf  hath  become  my  food  ;  and  the 
food  he  hath  given  me  is  his  own  ileih,  which  he 
gave  for  the  life  of  the  world.  O  divine  Saviour, 
how  great  is  thy  love  for  thy  children  !  How  good 
art  thou  to  thofe,  who  hope  in  thee,  and  feek  thee  ! 
Thou  ha(l  prepared  for  me  a  plentiful  table,  to 
give  me  ftrength  againft  my  enemies.  Now  there- 
fore in  the  midft  of  dangers,  and  even  in  the  flia- 
dow  of  death,  will  I  fear  nothing,  becaufe  thou 
art  with  me.  Abide  in  me,  and  let  me  abide  in 
thee.  Continue  to  beftow  upon  me  this  heavenly 
bread,  and  grant  that,  after  I  have  eaten  thereof, 
my  hunger  may  be  encreafed.  Let  me  labour  all 
my  life  for  that  food,  which  remaineth  for  ever, 
and  which  thou  alone  canft  give.  Let  me  be  fo 
ftrengthened  thereby,  that  I  may  be  able  to  walk 
on  to  thy  eternal  mountain,  there  to  fee  thee  face 
to  face,  and  adore  thee  with  the  Father  and  Holy 
Ghoft,  one  God,  world  without  end.  Amen.

SUNDAY, 

INSTRUCTION. 

J^AT  U  R  DAY,  from  the  beginning,  was  the  day  apN 
5  pointed  to  be  kept  holy,  in  memory  of  God^s  having, 
reated  the  world  in  fix  days,  and  reding  on  the  feventh^ 
tut  as  it  was  on  a  Sunday  xhii  Cbrijl  arofe  from  the  dead, 
ic  Apoflles  transferred  the  folethnity  of  Saturday  to  the

ic  primitive  Chriftians  never  thought  themfelves  exempc 
rom  the  obligation  of  fandlifying  this  day,  by  afTembling 
irith  their  brethren-  to  hear  the  holy  fcriptures  read,  and- 
artake  of  the  holy  myfteries.  For  when  the  heathen

This  honour  it  due  to  them,  for  having  borne  teftimony

and  for  having  (ealed  this  their  teftimony  with  their  blood, 
mnd  given  their  lives  for  Jefus  Cbrift,  The  Church  thanks 
God  for  the  eonrage  and  confbmcy  he  gave  them,  and 
propofes  their  example  to  her  children.  It  is  true,  ive

God,  and  gave  him  the  knowledge  of  the  holy 
things:  he  honoured  him  in  his  troubles,  and  fi- 
j)i(bed  his  labours.  ^  He  ftood  by  hitn  againft  the 
deceit  of  thofe  that  would  over-reach  him,  and  made 
him  honourable..    He  kept  him  fafe  from  his  ene- 
mTcs,  and  defended  him  from  feducers ;  and  gave 
him  a  ftrong  conflidl,  that  he  might  overcome,  and 
to  let  him  know  that  wifdom  is  mfghtier  than  all. 
This  wifdom  forfook  not  the  righteous  man,  when 
he  was  fold,  but  delivered  him  from  finners.    She 
went  down  with  him  into  the  pit,  and  in  his  bands 
fhe  left  him  not,  till  fhe  brought  him  thefcepterof 
the  kingdom,  and  power  againft  thofe  that  oppref-

IN  the  five  or  fix  firft  ages  of  the  Church,  thofe  were  call'd 
Ctmfejforsy  who  confefled  Jefus  Chrift  before  the  Pa- 
gans; particularly  if  tortures  accompanied  this  their  Con- 
^tSion,  as  was  generally  the  cafe.  In  after  times  the  name 
of  C4mfejf(ir  was  given  to  fuch  as  confefifed  Jefus  Chrift  by 
the  purity  and  fanftity  of  their  lives.  There  are  different 
degrees  of  Confejfors:  fome  of  them  were  Bift?opsy  fomc 
Prieftsy  and  Dolors  of  the  Church;  and  by  their  intercef- 
fion  we  ought  to  beg  of  God  paftors  full  of  his  fpirit,  and 
capable  of  reaching  the  truths  intruded  to  them.  Others 
vt trc. Monks  ox  Solitaries  i  and  it  is  thro'  their  intercef- 
fion  we  ought  to  beg  of  God  the  fpirit  of  retirement  and 
pennance.  Others  lived  in  the  world  in  different  ftates 
and  conditions.  But  they  all  lived  without  any  attach* 
ment  to  the  things  of  this  world  ;  and  defpifed  whatever 
is  tranfitory,  to  give  themfelves  up  to  God  and  his  truths ; 
and  mortifying  their  bodies  by  pennaiice,  they  underwent 
a  fort  of  martyrdom  in  the  perpetual  mortification  of  their 
paflions,  and  denial  of  their  own  will.  It  is  to  the  imita- 
tion of  thefe  virtues  that  their  fealls  ought  to  animate  us; 
and,  on  them,  we  ought  to  have  recourfe  to  God,  that, 
thro'  their  intercefiion,  we  may  obtain  his  enabling  grace 
to  follow  their  Heps.

BEhold  a  great  Prelate,  who  in  his  days  pleafed 
God,  and  was  found  righteous ;  and  in  the  time 
of  wrath  became  an  atonement.  There  was  none 
found  like  him  in  obKerving  the  law  of  the  Moft 
High.     Therefore  by  oath  did  the  Lord  make  him 

!;reat  among  his  people.  He  gave,  him  the  blef- 
ing  of  all  nations,  and  eflabliflied  his  covenant  on 
his  head.  He  acknowledged  him  by  his  bleflings: 
he  ftored  up  his  mercy  for  him  :  and  he  found  fa- 
vour in  the  eyes  of  the  Lord.  Chap.  xlv.  He  raifed 
him  in  the  fight  of  kings ;  and  gave  him  a  crown 
of  glory.  He  made  with  him  an  eternal  covenant ; 
and  beftowed  on  him  the  high  priefthood,  and 
rendered  him  happy  in  glory  ;  that  h.e  might  per- 
form the  prieftly  office,  (ing  praifes  to  the  name  of 
God,  and  offer  him  coftly  incenfe  for  an  odour  of 
fweetnels.

iervants,  and  delivered  to  them  his  goods.     And  to

he  that  had  received  the  five  talents,  went  his  way,

And  in  like  manner  he  that  had  received  thg  two, 
gained  other  two.  But  he  that  had  received  the  one, 
going  his  way,  dug  in  the  earth,  and  hid  his  Lord's

had  received  the  five  talents,  coming  brought  other 
five  talents,  fayingr :  Lord,  thou  deliveredft  to  me 
five  talents :  behold  I  have  gained  other  five  over  and

THE  ftate  of  Virginity  is  perftftly  agreeable  to  tHc 
Chriilian  fcheme,  whatever  obje£lions  human  po- 
licy may  make  againft  it.  God  himfclf,  become  incarnate, 
recommends  it  by  word  and  example.  St.  Paul  bedows 
the  grcatell  encomia ms  on  it;  and* in  every  age  of  the 
Church,  thofc  that  prelcrved  their  virginity,  were  always 
fooked  on  as  the  nobleft  portion  of  the  flock  of  Cbrtft. 
On  the  feftivals  therefore  of  virgins,  we  are  to  beg  of  God 
the  grace  of  penevcrance  to  the  end,  for  all  thofc  who 
have  voluntarily,  by  vow,  undertaken  that  perfcfl  ftate ; 
as  likewife  for  all,  that  puriry  of  mind  ncccffary  in  every, 
ftate  of  life,  and  jvithout  which  we  cannot  fee  God.

penitent  finners,  whereby,  in  coniideration  of  their 
performing  fome  particular  adls  of  religion,  fpecified  in 
the  grant  of  the  indulgence,  the  whole,  or  part  of  the  ca- 
nonical pennance  formerly  enjoined  for  particular  fins,  is 
relaxed  and  remitted.  If  the  whole  be  remitted,  the  In- 
dulgence is  called  Plenary,  if  only  a  part,.4t  is  called  ah 
Indulgence  o^  feven  years,  f cur  years,  two  years,  ox  forty 
days,  according  to  the  part  of  the  Canonical  pennance  to 
be  remitted.  The  Bifhops  of  Rome  alone  at  prefent  grant 
fuch  as  are  plenary ;  the  other  Bifhops  in  their  refpe^live 
Dioccfes  feldom  exceed  in  their  grants  that  of  forty  days^ 
Hence  it  appears  that  an  Indulgence  is  fo  far  from  be- 
ing either  a  leave  or  permifiion  to  commitlin,  (as  is  fome- 
times  pretended  by  thofe,  who  venture  their  falvation  on 
condemning  do^rines  they  either  do  not,  or  wiUnot  un« 
derfland)  that  it  is  not  fo  much  as  even  a  forgiving  of  fins, 
but  only  a  relaxation  of  the  punifhmeni  due  to  fins  already 
forgiven  in  the  £icrameut  cf  pennance.

That  the  Qmrch  was  intnifted  with  foch  an  authority 
by  CArifi^  and  hath  io  every  age  eacercUcd  this  authority, 
moft  be  acknowledged  by  a1l«  who  are  not  ftrangers  to 
Scripture  and  Church-hiftory.  St.  PmU  had  juffly  ez- 
commanicated  the  ince(luoi]sCinjvi£rtf»;  but^  in  confide- 
ration  of  the  fcrvoar  of  his  repentance,  he  reftored  him 
again  to  the  (acnuneots  and  the  commnnion  of  the  faithful, 
in  confeqaence  of  the  power  of  Iooiing»  as  well  as  binding, 
which  Cbrift  had  left  in  the  Charch.  And  in  the  pri- 
mitive ages  we  meet  with  nothing  more  frequent,  than  a 
relaxation  of  the  canonical  pcAnaiicea>at  the  intreaties  and 
reqneft  of  the  Martyrs. 

The  followbg  decree  therefore  of  the  Conncil  oifrent, 
$iff,  14.  df  Refirm.  cannot  but  be  applauded  by  tvtry  fober 
and  difpafllonatc  man.  "As  the  power  of  beflowing  Indul- 
**  gences  was  granted  by  Cbrift  to  the  Church,  and  as  the 
f<  Church,  even  in  the  moft  early  ages,  made  ufe  of  this 
*<  power... the  holy  fynod  teacheth  and  appointeth  the  ufe 
«*  of  indulgences,  fo  very  falutary  to  Chriftian  people,  and 
«« approved  of  by  the  authority  of  the  (acred  Councils, 
*<  to  be  reuined  m  the  Church... but  dcfires  that  modera- 
••  tion  fhould  be  nfed  in  the  grant  of  them,  according  to 
"  the  ancient  and  approved  ufe  of  the  Church ;  left,  by 
**  too  much  cafe,  the  difcipline  of  the  Church  be  enerva- 
*'  ted.  '  Tut  deliring  likewiie  that  the  abufcs  that  have 
**  crept  therein  may  be  corredcd,  ihe  orders  in  general 
**  tlve  aboliihiiig  all  trafBck  for  gaining  the  fame.'*  And 
deiircs  all  the  Blihops  to  apply  *'  proper  remedies  to  what- 
"  ever  abufes  may  Lave  arifen  from  fuperftitioni  ignorance, 
"and  irreverence,  in  the  ufe  thereof." 

The  conditions  upon  which  alone  we  can  receive  the 
effefls  of  any  Indulgence,  are,  i .  To  be  truly  forry  for  our 
iins.  2.  To  have  a  finccre  defire  of  fatisfyihg  for  them 
3.  To  fatisfy  as  far  as  is  in  our  power.  4.  To  have  ob 
tained  the  rcmillion  of  fin  as  to  the  guilt  of  it.  <;.  To  ful

The  Prayer. 

O  Almighty  and  cvcriafting  God,  it  is  with  con- 
fufton  of  countenance  and  contrition  of  heart 
that  I  prefent  myk\4  \w  ^^^\^  ^^^>m^  ^  WmllitY  on 


An  I  N  D  U  L  G  E  N  C  E.      cccxvii 

my  bended  knees  before  thy  divine  Majefty,  whom 
I  have  offended  moft  grievoufly  by  my  manifold 
crimes  and  offences.  Great  hath  been  their  enor- 
mity, and  fuch  as  thy  juftice  would  have  punifhed 
with  eternal  torments,  had  not  thy  mercy  interpo- 
fed,  and  faved  me  from  thy  wrath  by  the  blood  of 
thy  holy  only  Son,which  hath  been  applied  to  my  foul 
by  thy  minifter  in  the  facrament  of  pennance.  Thou 
haft  again  therefore,  in  thy  infinite  goodnefs,  admit- 
ted me  into  favour :  thou  haft  placed  me  again  at 
thy  table  with  thy  children,  and  fed  me  with  the 
food  of  life,  and  the  bread  of  Angels,  But  I  can 
never  forget  my  paft  ingratitude  to  thee,  O  my 
God,  my  Father,  and  my  King,  I  deteft  again  all 
the  crimes  I  have  ever  committed  againft  thy  di- 
vine Majefty.  I  acknowledge,  that  tho*  thou  haft 
taken  away  my  fins,  there  remaineth  yet  a  punifti- 
ment  due  to  them.  The  difcipline  of  thy  Church, 
tho'  ever  unchangeable  in  the  fpirit  that  guides  and 
directs  it,  requires  no  longer  thofe  external  rigours 
of  pennance  formerly  prad:ifed,  and  which  I  know 
the  enormity  of  fins  demand  ^  but  thy  juftice  is  ftill 
the  fame,  and  fin  muft  ftill  be  fatisfied  for.  This, 
my  God,  I  have  in  fome  meafure  endeavoured  to 
do,  and  will  ftill  increafe  my  efforts  to  perform  in 
the  beft  manner  I  am  able. 

"  But  do  thou,  O  God,  confirm  and  ratify  what 
thy  Vicar  on  earth  hath  done.  He  hath  opened  the 
trcafures  of  the  Church,  and  I  may  now  apply  to 
my  foul  .the  fuperabundant  merits  of  Jefus  Chrtji^ 
thy  only  Son,  and  thofe  of  all  his  faints,  which  are 
his  own  gifts  in  them,  to  fupply  all  the  defefts  of 
the  fatisfadlion  I  have  or  may  perform  for  my  fins. 
Accept  therefore  the  alms,  fafts,  and  prayers 
which  I  offer  to  thy  divine  Majefty.  I  pray  not 
for  myfelfonly,  but  for  the  whole  Catholick  Church 
all  over  the  world.  For  the  fupreme  Paftor  there- 
of, the  fuccefl'or  of  St,  Peter^  the  chief  of  thy  Apo-

the  Paftors,  who  labour  under  him  in  the  falvation 
of  fouls :  for  the  Prince  appointed  by  thee  for  the 
government  of  thefe  realms.  I  pray  alfo  for  all 
Chriftian  Piinces,  that  they  may  live  in  peace  and

thy  only-begotten  Son  appointed  to  be  kept  by  all

A    PROFESSION 

Of  the  CATHOLICK  FAITH  puhUJhed  by  Pope 
PIUS  IV.  ufually  made  by  Graduates,  &c.  in  Ca- 
iholkk  Countries. 

IN.  N.  with  a  firm  faith  believe  and  profcfs  all 
and  every  one  of  thofe  things,  which  are  con- 
tained in  the  Creed,  which  the  holy  Catholick 
Church  maketh  ufe  of,  viz.  I  believe  in  one  God, 
the  Father  almighty,  i^c,  in  the  Nicene  Creed,  at 
Mofs. 

I  moft  ftedfaftly  admit  and  embrace  Apoftolical 
and  Ecclefiaftical  traditions^  and  all  other  obfer- 
vances  and  conflitutions  of  the  church. 

I  alfo  admit  the  holy  Scripture  according  to  that 
fenfe  which  our  holy  Mother,  the  Church,  hath 
held,  and  doth  hold,  to  which  it  belongs  to  jud^c 
of  the  true  fenfe  and  interpretation  of  the  Scrip- 
tures :  nekTatt  vj'vW  V  ^v^i  Va^^  ^tA  v^ter^ret  them 


O/CHRISTIAN   FAITH,   cccxix 

otherwife  than  according  to  the  unanimous  confent 
of  the  Fathers. 

I  alfo  profefs,  that  there  are  truly  and  properly 
fsven  Sacraments  of  the  new  law,  inftituted  ty  Je^ 
Jus  Chrijl  our  Lord,  and  neceffary  for  the  falvation 
of  mankind  ;  tho'  not  all  for  every  one,  vi%.'  Bap-- 
ttftn^  ConfirmaUoTiy  Eucharijl^  Pennancej  Extreme^ 
Un^ion^  Order^  and  Matrimony  \  atid  that  they  con^ 
fer  grace :  and  that  of  thcfe,  Baptifm^  Confirmatiottj 
and  Order  cannot  be  reiterated  without  facrilege. 
I  alfo  receive  and  admit  the  received  and  approved 
Ceremonies  of  the  Cathofick  Church  in  the  folemfl 
adminiflration  of  all  the  aforefaid  facraments. 

I  embrace  and  receive  all  and  every  one  of  the 
things  which  have  been  defined  and  declared  m  the 
holy  Council  of  Trent ^  ccfncerning  Original  Sin  and 
jfujiification. 

I  profefs  likewife,  that  in  the  Mafs  there  is  of- 
fered to  God,  a  true,  proper,  and  propitiatory  fa- 
crifice  for  the  living  and  the  dead.  And  that  in  the 
moft  holy  facrament  of  the  Euchariji^  there  is  /r«- 
ly^  really^  ?s\d  fubjiantially  the  body  and  bloirdy  toge- 
ther with  the  foul  and  divinity  of  our  Lord  Jefus 
Chriji:  and  that  there  is  made  a  converjion  or  change 
of  the  wliole  fubfiana  of  the  bread  into  the  ^ody^ 
and  of  the  whole  fubjlance  of  the  wine  into  the 
blood  \  which  converjion  or  change  the  Catholick 
Church  calls  tranjubflantiation*  I  alfo  coiifefs  that 
under  either  kind  alone  Chrijl  is  received  whole  and 
entire,  and  a  true  facrament. 

I  conftantly  hold  that  there  is  a  Purgatory^  and 
that  the  fouls  therein  detained  are  helped  by  the 
fuffrages  of  the  faithful. 

Likewife  that  the  Saints  reigning  together  with 
Chrijl  are  to  be  honoured,  and  invocated,  and  that 
they  offer  prayers  to  God  for  us ;  and  that  their 
r clicks  are  to  be  refpeded. 

I  moft  firmly  aflcrt,  that  the  Images  of  Chrijl^  of 
the  ever^Virgiti-mother  of  God,  and  alfo  of  other 


cccxx      A  PROFESSION,  6fr. 

Saints  ought  to  be  had  and  retained  \  and  that  iut 
honour  and  veneration  is  to  be  given  to  them. 

I  alfo  affirm  that  the  power  of  Indulgences  was 
left  by  Chriji  in  the  Church,  and  that  the  ufe  of 
them  is  mod  wholefome  to  Chriftlan  people. 

I  acknowledge  the  holy^  Catbolick^  Jlpoftolick^ 
Roman  Church  for  the  Mother  and  Miftrefs  of  all 
other  Churches ;  and  I  promife  true  obedience  to 
the  Bijbop  of  Rome^  fucceflbr  to  St.  Peter ^  Prince 
of  the  Apoftles,  and  Vicar  of  Jefus  Chrift. 

I  likewife  undoubtedly  receive  and  profefs  all' 
other  things  delivered,  defined,  and  declared  by  the 
facred  Canons  and  geiieral  Councils,  and  particu- 
larly by  the  holy  Council  of  Trent.  And  1  con- 
-?demn,  reje£l,  and  anathematize  all  things  contrary 
thereto,  and  all  herefies  whatfoever  condemned, 
rejected,  and  anathematized  by  the  Church. 

This  true  Catholick  Faith,  without  which  no 
one  can  be  faved,  I  N^  N.  do  at  this  preient  freely 
profefs  and  fmcerely  hold ;  and  I  promife  moft  con- 
Aantly  to  retain  and  confefs  the  fame  entire,  and 
unviolated,  with  God's  affiftance,  to  the  end  of  my 
life.
