BE gliocas Eajrlais Shasunn rialDh

Ciod na meadhonan mi-dhlighcacb
leis an robh, agus ciod na cuisean
aimhleasach ri linn na'n aimhlisgean
mi-shona fo dheireadh, leis an d thai-
nig an Urmiiph Choitchionn gu bhi
air a Ijncadh (ired' a bha i orduichte le
Laghail)li na Tire agus na Laghanan
sin I'ialili thntaast gun an cuir air
chul), tha e robh aithnichte do'n t-
saoghal, agus ni miann leinn an aithris
a so. Ach aig Ath-aiseag sona a Mho-
rachd an dara Righ Tearlach, chun-
nacas iomchaidh am measg caochla
do nithe eile, gu'm biodh an Urniiigh
Choitchionn, mar an ceudna air a
cleachadh (nach no chuireadh riibli
gu laghail air chul) mar a biodh cuid
do mheadhonan tiomail air angnatha-
chadh gu bacadh leis na daoine sin a
ghlac an riaghladh gun choir, rinn
iad e na mhor earruinn da'n gnothach
I gu'n deauadh iad a sluagh^mi-fnoil-
ichte leis &n Urnuigh Choitchionn,
chunnaic iad iad fein ann an neart
! chliu agus a thaobh an tairbh fein
I gu'm buineadh dhoibh sin a dheanadh
I (mar a h-aidicheadh iad gu saor gun
I robh iad fein am mearrachd, ni tha
1 gle chruaidh a thoirt air a leithid sin
j do dhaoine dheanadh), agus gu bacadh
I a h-ath-aiseag rinn iad an uile dhicheal.
I Chum sin a dheanadh bha caochla do
j Leabhraichean beaga clodh-bhuailte
I an aghaidh an Leabhair Vriiuigh, bha
na seann choirean air an tional maille
j ri caochla do dh' aireamh nuadh air a
chuir riutha, a thuillidh air na bh'
ann roimh gus an t-aireamh a mheu-
dachadh. Ma dheireadh, ghnathaich-
eadh mor liosdachd ri Mhorachd
Naomh, gu'n reachadh an Lealjhar
ath-cheartachadh, agus a leithid do
dh' atharrachadh a dheanadh ann, no
chuirris, mar a smuainichte iomchaidh
chum fois a thoirt do chogaisean an-
mhunn ; chum so a dheanadh, dh'
aontaich a Mhorachd ghrasail bho
thoil dhiadhaidh, lantoi!eacbadh a
thoirt (co fad 's a b'urrainn duil a bhi
aca gu reusanta ris) d'a uile iochdran-
ailjh, geb' air bith aidmheil da'n robh
iad.

Anns an ath-bheachachadh so, rinn
sinn dicheal gu toirt fa'near na mca-
sarachd cheudna, mar a ta sinn a
faicinn a chleachdadh's a chòr cheud-
na's na timibh roi'-so. A^-^us uime
sin, mu na caochla mhuthainnean a
chaidh a thaii'Sge dhuinn a dheanadh.

An Romhradh.

chuir Sinn cril ri nile leithidean 's a
bha, aon cliuid do bhrigh chunnartaich
(mar bha gu uaigneach a gi'arradh as
cuid do' Teacrasg shuidhictite, no Cle-
ichdadh cliuiteach Eaglais Shasanu,
ao gu firinneach a ta 'n aghaidh an
lomlain do dh' Eaglais Choitchionn
Chriosd) no anns naclirobb lirigh sam
bith, ach gu tur faon agus diombain.
Acb a leitbid a db' atbarracbadb 's a
bha air an tairsge dbuinn (le ciod air
bith pearsaibh, fo ciod air bith^ leis-
geulan, no ciod air bith run mu'n do
thairgeadh lad) agus mar a chunnacas
dhuinne ann an ceum air bith iomch-
aidh no freagracli,rinn sinn gu deonach
le'r toil fein aontachadh leo : cna d'
eignichear sinn chum sin a dheanadh
le' neart air bith Argumaid ag dear-
bhadh dhuinn mu'n eiginnair deanadh
na muthainneainn ceudna : Oir tha
sinn Ian deirbhte 'nar breitheanas fein
(agus ga aideachd so do'n t-saoghal)
gu bheil an Leabhar mar a shuidhich-
eadh e roimh leis an Lagh, gu'n ni
sam bith sgriobhta ann a ta 'n aghaidh
Focal Dhe, no'n aghaidh Teagasg
fallain, no nach faod duine diadhaidh
le deagh choguis a ghnathachadh
agus stl-iochdadh leis, no nach eil gu
soilleir Ian deirbhte ge be sam bith
neach a chuireas na aghaidh : ma 's e
gu'n ceaduichear dha leithid do mhi-
neachadb firinneach agus baigheil mar
a dhleasadh arm an ceartas reusanta
bhi air a cheaduchadh do uile Sgrio-
bhaidhean daona, gu h-araid a leithid
's a ta air an cur a mach le Ughdarras,
agus eadhoin do'n eadar-theanga-
chadh is fearr do'n Scriobtur fein.

Be ar run cumanta uime sin, annsa
chuis so ghabhail os laimh, gun a
chuideachd so no chnideachd ud a
thoileachadh ann an aon air bith do
larrtasaibh mi -reusanta; ach an ni
sin a dheanadh a bhreithnich sinn le'r
tuigse fein, bu ro mho ghleidheadh
Sith agus Aonachd 'san Eaglais; a
bhuanicheadh Uram, agus a bhros-
uuicheadh Diadhachd, agus Crabhadh
ann an Aoradh follaiseach Dhe ; agus
a toii-t air falbh aobhar uathsan a ta
'g iarraidh aobhar comh-stri no aini-
hreite 'n aghaidh Urnvdghean na h-
Eaglaise. A.gus thaobh na'n caochla
atharracbaidii bho'n Leabhar bha roi'
so, CO dhiu a ta iad deanta tre acharr-
achadh, no meadachadh no an doigh
air bith eile, is leoir an cunntas cum-
anta so thoirt umpa. Gu'n d' rinneadh
a chuid is mòtha do na muthainnean
'sa cheud aite, air son riaghailt is
fearr dhoibh-san a tha gu frithealadh
ann an earruinn air bith do'n t-Seir-
bheis Dhiadhaidh a ta gu h-araid
deanta 's na Clar-mhiosan agus anns
an Ruadhxicean. ; no an dara aite, gu

ainmeacbadh na bu ro-chothromaiclie
cuid do dh'fhocail no seann doighean
labhairt ann am briathraibh bu ro
f hreagaraiche do chainnt na'n àmaibh
so, agus gu tuilleadh minichidh air
cuid do dh'fhocail agus do bhriathar-
an, a bha aon chuid teagail na seadh,
no bha buailteach do mhi-sheadh:
no 'san treas aite, gu eadar theanga-
chadh na bu ro shoDleire leithid do
earrunnan do'n Scriobtur naomh agus
a ta 'san Leabhar Umuigh : gu h'ar-
aid 'sna Litirichibh agus anns na
Soisgeulaibh, acrus ann an caochla
ionadabh eile, tha iad a nis orduicbte
ri Ijhi air an leabhadh reir an eadar
theaugachaidh. dheireanaich ; agus
chunnacas iomchaidh gu'm biodh
cuid do Umuighean agus Breith-bui-
dheachasaibh freagarach airson aobh-
ar araid air a chuir riu 'nan ionad
dUgheach fein ; gu araid mar iad sin
air Muir, maille ri Dreuchd aii-son
Baisteadh na muinntir a thig gu aois :
agus ged nach robh so co feumail
nuau- bha'n Leabhar roi' so air a
sgriobhadh, gidheadh le fas an
Anabhaistidh a shnaig 'nar measg
tre mhi-bheus na h-aimsir roi' so,
tha'n dreuchd sin a nis iomchaidh
agus faodaidh e bhi ghna' feumail
airson na Duchasuich a bhaisteadh
'nar Tiribh-cein agus dream eile a
dh'iompaichear a chum a Chreidhidh.
Ma ghabhas neach air bith, (dh'iarras
cunntas is meana mu'n chaochla a-
tharrachaidh a rinneadh, ann an earr-
tunn air bith do'n Leabhar Urnuigh),
saothair an Leabhar so a choimeas ris
an aon roi' so; cha teagamh leinn
nach faicear leis gu soilleir aobhar an
atharrachaidh.

Agus ar dhuinn mar so dicheal a
dheanadh air coi'lionadh ar dleasnais
ann sa chuis chudthromaich so, mar
ann am fianuis Dhe agus gu dearbhadh
ar treibhdhireas (cho fad 's a bha 'nar
comas;) do chogaisibh nan uile dha-
oine ; ged a ta ììos aguinn gu bheil e
' neo-chomasach (na leithid do chaochla
bheachdan, cailean agus leth-pairtean
mar a ta anns an t-saoghal) na h-uile
thoileachadh ; agus cha'n urrainn earb-
sa bhi aguinn gu'm biodh daoine do
spiorad ceannaii'ceach, diorasach agus
raginhuinealach air an toileachadh le
ni sam bith is urrainear a dheanadh
'san doigh so, mar a deanar leo fein
e : gidheadh tha deadh dhochas aguinn
gum bi a ni a ta so air thairgse, agu»
a bha le mor' dhicheal air bhreithnea-
chadh agus air a dhearbhadh le Co'
chruinneach Mhinisteirean na da
riogbachd, air gabhail ris mar an ceud*-

Stuama, siochail, agus glan chogais-
each Eaglais Shasnnn.

Mu Sheirhheis na Ji-Eaglaise.

CHA robh ni air bith riabh air a
dheilbh, no co barranntach air a
Bhuidhicheadli le gliocas duine nach.
d' thainig tre aimsir gu bhi air a
thruailleadh ; mar, a measg nithibh
eile, mar dh' fhaodas sinn f haicinn gu
soilleir thaobh Urnuighibh coitchionn
na Baglaise d'an gairmear gu cu-
manta Seirbheis Dhiadhaidh. Bha'n
ceud tus agus an stèidh aca maith,
ma 's miann ]e neach a rannsachadh
bho na priomh Atharaichibh, gheibh e
mach nach robh iad air an orduchadh
ach bho dheadh run, agus airson mor
leasachaidh diadhachd. Oir dh' or-
duich iad a chuis na leithid do dhoigh
's gu'm biodh am Biobul uile (no
chuid bu mhotha dheth) air a leughadh
thairis aon uair 's a bhUadhna ; a'
runachadh leis a sinn, gu'm biodh a
Chleir agus gu h-araid leithid 's a bha
na Ministeirean ann an coi'thionlaibh
(le leubhadh gu trie, agus a breithnea-
chadh air focal Dhe) gu'n gluaiste iad
chum diadhachd, agus gu'm biodh iad
na bu ro chomasaiche air earrail agus
teagasg fallain a thoirt do dhream eile,
agus gu iadsan a bhitheadh na'n eas-
cairdean do'n fhirinn a bhreugnach
adh; agus a thuillidh air a so, gu'm
faodadh an sluagh (tre eisdeachd na
Scriobhtuirean Naomh air an leughadh
gachla 'san Eaglais) a ghna' meudach-
adh ni's motha agus ni's motha ann
an eolas De agus a bhi gu mor air am
beothachadh le fior ghradh a Chreid-
idh-san.

Ach air do mhoran bhliadhnaibh dol
seachad, 's amhuil a bha'n t-ordugh
diadhaidh agus ciatach so air atharr-
achadh, air a bhristeadh, agus air a
dhearmad, le suidheachadh a stigh
Eachdraidhean neo-chinnteach agus
Sgialachdan, maille ri Freagairt-tean,
Rannan, ach-aithrris dhiomhain Co'-
chuimhneachain agus riaghailtean
Sheanadhan, air chor 's gu cumanta
nuair thoisichfe ri Leabhar air bith
do'n Bhiobul an deigh do thri no cei-
thir do Chaibteil a bhi air an leughadh,
bha chuid eile air a fagail gun
leughadh. Agus 's an doigh so blia
Leabhar Isaiah ri toiseachadh anns an
Teachd, agus Leabhar a Ghineulalch
ann a Septuagesima ; ach cha d'rinn-
eadh ach toiseachadh gun an leughadh
uile trompa: Air an doigh cheudna
ghnathaicheadh Leabhraichean eile
do'n Scriobtur naomh. Agus os barr,
do bhrigh gu'm bu-mhiann leis an N.
Pol gu'n reachadh a leithid do chainnt
a labhairt 'san Eaglais 'sa thuigeadh
a' sluagh agus leis am faigheadh iad
tairbhe an ni cheudna. Bha an t-
seirbheis ann an Eaglais so Shasunn,
air a loughjidh iad mhoran bhliadhna-
chan ann an Laidinn do'n phobuU
cainntnach do thuig iad; air chor 's

gu'n cual iad le'n cluasaibh a mhain,
agus cha robh an cridhe, an Spiorad
no an inntinn air an teagasg leis.
Bharr air a so, ge' do roinn na Seann.
Athairichean na Sailm na seachd earr-
unnan agus ghairmendh do gach aon
diubh Nocturn ;* Nis bho chionn
ghoirid cha'n eile ach beagan dhiuljh
air an leughadh gach la, agus a chuid
eile gu buileach air an dearmad. Os
barr, be'n taobhar a bheir so, aireamh
agus cruas nan Righailtean d'an goi-
r ear am Pie\ agus atharrachaibh hon'or
na Seirbheis, air chor 's gu'n robh
a chuis CO cruaidh agus co iomlubach
ann a sealltuiun a mhain air a son, air
chor 's gu'n robh tuilleadh saothair
iomad uair air faotuinn a mach ciod
bu choir a bhi air a leughadh, na
leughadh 'nuair a gheibhte a mach e.

Uime sin, aii' do na mi-dheisealach-
dan sin a bhi air an toirt fa'near, tha
sios anns an Leabhar so leithid do
Riaghailt, leis am bi chuis sin air a*
leasac ladh. Agus air sondeisealachd
arms a gbnothach so, tha Miosachan
air a scriobhadh air son an aobhair
sin, a tha soilleir agus fm-asta ri bhi
air a thuigsinn; anns a bheil air a
nochdadh (urad 'sa dh'f haodas a bhi)
leughadh an Scriobtuir naoimh, chum
gu'n deanar na h-uile nithe ann an
ordugh, gun bhi-isteadh aon chuid
bho chuid eile dheth. Air an aobhar
so tha Laoidhean, Freagairtean, Guiilh-
earrunnan agus a leithid sin do nithibh
agus a bhrist ghna' chursa leughaidh
a Scriobtur air an gearradh as.

Gidheadh do bhrigh nach robh doigh
leasachaidh air, ach an eiginn, feum-
aidh cuid do Riaghailtean a bhi aun :
uime sin tha Riaghailtean araid air an
cuir a sios; agus mar a tha aid aineamh
an aireamh, 's amhuil a ta iad soilleir
agus furasta ra'n tuigsinn. Air chor
's gu bheil agaibh an so Riaghailt
airson Urnuigh, agus airson leughadh
a' Scriobtuir naoimh, ro thaitneach, a
reir inntinn agus run nan seann Atha-
irichean, agus moran ni's tarbhaiche
agus na's goireasaiche na bha air an
guathachadh roi so. Tha e ni's ro
tliarbhaiche, chionn gu bheil moran
d'j nithiljh air am fagail mach, cuid
diu' bha mearrachdach, cuidmi-chinn-
teach agus cuid diomhain agus saobh-
chrabhaeh ; agus ni air bith cha'n eil
air orduchadh gu bhi air a leughadh,
ach Focal fior ghlan Dhe, na' Scriob-
tuireau naomh, neo nithe a ta d'an

agus do Riaghailt 's a ta ro fhurasta

agus soilleir airson an tuigsinn araon
leis an Luchd-leughaidli agus leis an
Luchd-eisdenchd. Tha e i;i's goireas-
aiche araon airson giorad agus reid-
head na Riaghailt, agus airson gu
bheil na Riaghailtean aineamli agus

Agus do bhrigh 's gu'n robh roi' so
mor mliùthadh ann an radh agus a

ghachd SO; cuid a leantuinn Cleach.-

aig an Rioghachd uile ach an t-aon

Agus do bbrigh 's nach urrainnear

nach faod teagamh tachairt ann an
cleachdadh agus ann an gnarhachadh

sin do eu coltais a reiteachadh (ma

GED' tha na h-uile nithe orduichte
ri bhi air an leugbadh agus air

an CO thional air afoghlum : gidheadh
'nuair a tha daoine a leughadh na h-
Urnuigh Mhaidne agus Fheasgair gu

Agus tha aig na h-uile Shagairtean

Mic Dheasghnathan d arson a ta mid air an cuir as, agus eiiid air a*

MU leithid do Dheasghnathan a's
tha air an cleachdadh 'san Eag-
lais, agus aig anrobhantùs Irereachd
dhaoine, bha cuid dhiu' an toiseach
air a suidheachadh bho run agus
mianndiadhaidh, agus gidheadhtionn-
daidhiad la dheireadh gu diomhanas
agus saobh-chrabhadh ; dh' inntrig
cuid dhiu' do'n Eaglais le crabhadh
aimideach agus le leithid do dh'eud as
eugais eolais ; agus do bhrigh nach do
ghabhadh suim dhiu' au' tùs, dh'f has
a mi-ghnathachadh na bu mhotha gach
la, cLa b'ann a mhain airson an neo-
tharbhachd, ach mar an ceudua gu n
robh a' sluagh gu mor air an dallvdh
leo, agus gloir Dhe air a dorchachadh,
uime sin bha e iomchaidh gu'n rach-
adh an gearradh as gu buileach; tlia
cuid eile dhiu' ged a bha iad : '
suidheachadh le daoine, gidl
chunnacas ro iomchaidh an c;

math airson riaghailt cbiatach tau

eadh iad aii- tùs) mar do bhrigh gu'm
buineadh md do dh'fhoghlum, ni 'se
ciad-fa nan uile nithibh bu choir a
bhi air a dheanadh arm san Eaglais,
mar a ta 'n t-Abstol a teagasg.

Agus ged nach eil gleidheadh no

dearmad Deasghna' ri smuainteachadh.

ann fein, ach mar ni beag suarach ;

gidheadh cha'n eil bristeadh ordugh

agus foghlum coitchionn, le cionta

' sin cha bhuin e do dhaoine cumanta ;

air an aobbar sin cha dhleasadh do

dhuine sambith aghabail os laimh, no

I a ladarnas air fein gu'n orduicheadh

I no gu'n atharraicheadh e Riaghailt

I air bith a ta follaiseach agus coitchionn

's gu'mi)U mhiann leo na h-uile nithibh

amh mar sin air na seann nithibh, air

cbor's nach urrainn ni sam bith an
tuileachadh, ach an ni sin a ta nuadh ;
chuiinacas iomchaidh nach gabhta a
leithid do shuim cionnas a bhiodb aon
chuideachd dhiubh sin air an toil-
eachadb no air an riaruchadb, ach
cionnas a bhiodh Dia air a thoileach-
adh, air chor's gu'm bitheadh e na
thairbh doibh maraon. Agnis fadhe-
oidh, an eagal gu'm faigheadh neach
air bith oilbheum, no aig a bheil deagh
aobhar gu bbi air a thoileachadh, uime
sin tha aobbaran araid air an cur a
sios, c'arson a ta cuid do Dheas-
ghnathan cleachdta air an treigsinn
agus cuid eile air an cumail agus air
an gleidbeadh f hathast.

Chuireadhas do chuid dbiu', chionn
gu'n dh'f has iad ro lionar agus anabar-
rach mor anns na laithibh deireanach
so, air chor 's gu'n robb aneallach dhiu'
do-iomchair; ma bheil an Naomh
Augustine ri gearran na latha fein, gu'n
do chinn iad chum a leithid do dh'-
aireamh 's gu'n robh staid an t-sluaigh
Chriosdail arm an cor, a thaobh na
cuise-sin, na bu mheasa dheth na cor
nan ludhach. Agus chomhairlich e
gu'm biodh a leithid sin do chtiing
agus a dh'eallaich air an toirt air falbh,
mar a f hreagaradh an t-àm air a dhea-
narih gu siochail. Ach ciod a theireadh
an Naomh Augustine, na faiceadh e na
Deasghnathan a bha air an cleachdadh
'sna laithibh a chaidh seachad, nar'
measg-ne, agus ris nach robh aireamh
na chaidh a chleachdadh 'na latha-san
1*1 bhi air an coimeas? Mar so bha
anabarrachd lionar ar Deasghnathan
CO mor, agus iomadaidh dhiu' co dor-
cha, 's gu'n do chuir iadtuilleadh amh-
laidh agus dorchadais air sochairean
Chriosd na rinn iad f hoillseachad agus
a thaisbeineadh dhuinn. Agus a bharr
air a so. cha'n eil Soisgeul Chriosd 'na
Lagh Deasghnathach (mar a bha
moran do Lagh Mhaois) ach is dia-
dhachd e chum seirbheis a dhean-
adh do Dhia, cha'n ann an daorsa
choltais no na sgail, ach ann a saors -
ainn a' Spioraid; air bhi dhuinn a
mhain toiUchte leis na Deasghnathan
sin a ta tarbhach airson ordugh ciat-
ach agus Foghlum diadhaidh, agus a
leithid 's a ta iomchaidh gu dusgadh
marbh-inntiim duine gu cuimhneach-
adh air a dhleasnas do Dhia, gu nochd-
adh dha, cuid do bhrigh shonraichte
agus araid leis a' faodadh e bhi air
fhoghlum. Os barr, be 'n t-aobhar bu
chudthromaiche, gu'n do chuireadh as
Deasghnathan araid, gu'n robh iad
ann an cuid co mor air a' mighnath-
achadh le doille gliiosreagach dhaoine
aineolach agus neo-fhoghluimte, agus
ann an cuid eile airson gionach do-
riaruichto a leithid do shluagh 'sa
dh'iarr airson an saimh fern, na bu mho
na airson gloir Dhe; na mi-ghnath
achinnean sin cha b'urrainnear gu h-

iomlan an toirt air falbh, agus dh'fhan
cuid dhiu' fhathast.

Ach a nise thaolah nam pearsaibh
sin math dh'fhaoidte leis am faighear
oilbheum, airson gu bheil cuid do na
seann Deasghnathan air an cumail
fhathast; ma bheir iad fainear gu
bheil e neo-chomhasach Ordugh air
bith no Foghlum siochail a ghleidh-
eadh 'san Eaglais as eugais cuid do
Dheasghnathan, bheir iad gu furasta
fainear, fior aobhar air leasachadh am
breitheanais. Agus ma tha iad ag
smuainteachadh na ghiiothach mor gu
bheil aon air bith do'n t-seann f heo-
ghainn air an cumail, ach gu b'fhearr
leo na h-uile bhi aii" an deilbh as ùr.
A' sin, tha'n leithid sin do dhaoine ag
aideachadh gu'n dleasadh cuid do
Dheasghnathan freagrach a bhi air an
cumail, agus gu cinnteach far a' faod
an t-seann fheoghainn a bhi gu h-
iomchaidh air an cleachdadh, a sin
cha'n uiTainn doibh an t-seann fheo-
ghain a choireacbadh a mhain airson
an aoise, gu'n an aimideachd fein a
bhrath ann a foill. Oir na leithid do
] chor's ann bu choir dhoibh urram na
bu mho thabhaii't doibh airson an
aoise, ma 's e 's gu'n aidich siad iad
fein ni's deigh eile airson aonachd
agus comh-reite, na tha iad airson ur-
ghnathachadh agus nuadh-innleachd-
an, nithe a ta ghna' ri bhi air a seach-
nadh, air meud da bheil iad a rimach-
adh fior Chreideamh Chriosd a nochd-
adh. Os barr cha'n eil ceart aobhar
sam bith aig an leithid sin do dhaoine
bhi diombach airson na'n Deasghnath-
an a chaidh a chumail. Airson an
feoghainn a thugadh air falbh, agus
bha air a mi-ghnatbachadh gu mor
bha iad nan eire gun aobhar air cogais
dhaoine; ach a chuid a ghleidheadh
dhiu' tha iad a chum foghluim agus
ordugh agus (air fior aobbaran) dh
fhaodas a bhi air an atharachadh agus
air an caochladh, agus uime sin cha'n
eil iad ri bhi air a' meas comh-ionnan
ri Lagh Dhe. Agus a thuilleadh air a
so, cha'n eil iad aon chuid na'n Deas-
ghnathan dorcha no do-thuigseach,
ach air an nochdadh 'na leithid do
dhoigh 's gu faod na h-uile duine
thuigsinn ciod 's brigh dhoibh, agus
ciod" is feum doibh. Air chor 's nach
eil e coltach gu'm mighnàthaichar iad
'san linn ri teachd, mar a rinneadh
'san linn a chaidh seachad. Agus 'nar
dcanadas so cha'n eil sinn a diteadh
Cinnich air bi eile, no a' scoladh ni
sam bith dhoibh ach d'ar sluagh fein
a mhain ; Oir tha sinn a smuainteach-
adh na ni iomchaidh gu'n dleasadh do
na h-uile Duthaich a leithid a Dheas-
ghnathan a chleachdadh, mar a
smuainticheas iad is fearr chum nochd-
adh a mach onair agus gloir Dhe, agtis

An Riaghailt anns am bheil Leahhar nan Salm air orduchadh gu hhi
air a leughadh.

BITHIBH Leabhar nan Salm air a
leughadh thau-is aon uair 'sa
mhios, mar a ta e air ordufhadh. araon
air son Fmuigh Mhaidne agus Fheas-

ar e'mhain gus an t-ochdamh, no an
naoidheamh la f hichead do 'n Mhios.

Anns na Miosaibh sin anns am bheil

chte gum bi na Sailm a chaidh a leugh-
adh air an deicheamh La fichead, air

Agus do bhrigh gum bheil an 119

Salm air a roinn na dha chuibhrinn

An HiagTiailt anns am hheil a cJiuid eile do'n Scrioltur naomh air

dhoigh is gum bi a chuid is mo dheth
air a leughadh aon uair sa Bhliadhna,
mar a ta am miosachan ag orduchadh.

Tha an dara Leasan r'a thabhairt
bho'n Tiomna Xuadh ; ni as coir a
leughadh gu riaghailteach thairis tri
uairibh sa Bhliadhna, a bhar air na
Litrichibh agus na Soisgeil ; ach
Leabhar an Fhoillsicheadh tha r'a
leughadh au- Laithibh Feisdean son-
ruichte.

Chum fios fhaotuinn air na Leasain
is coir a leughadh gach la, amhairc air

son an La ann sa Mhiosachan. Tha
na Leasain a bhuineas do na feisdean
a ta ag athrachadh agus na feisde-
neoghluaiste, air am faotuinn ann 'sna

'Nuair a ta Sailm agus Leasain shon-
ruichte air an orduchadh; leigear na
sailm agus na Leasain ghnathaichte
seachad.

Thoir fainear, gu'm foghainn an Ur-
nuigh, an Litir, agus an Soisgeul a

DEARLY beloved brethren,
the Scripture moveth us
in sundry places to acknowledge
and confess our manifold sins
and wickedness ; and that we
should not dissemble nor cloke
them before the face of Almighty
God our heavenly Father ; but
confess them with an humble,
lowly, penitent, and obedient
heart ; to the end that we may
obtain forgiveness of the same,
by bis infinite goodness and
mercy. And although we ought
at all times humbly to acknow-
ledge our sins before God ; yet
ought we most chiefly so to
do when we assemble and meet
together to render thanks for
the great benefits that we have
received at bis bands, to set
forth his most worthy praise, to
bear bis most holy Word, and
to ask those things which are
requisite and necessary, as well
for the body as the soul. Where-
fore I pray and beseech you, as
many as are here present, to
accompany me with a pure heart,
and bumble voice, unto the
throne of the heavenly grace,
saying after me :

Magnificat. St. Luke i. 46.

MY soul dotb magnify tbe
Lord : and my spirit hath
rejoiced in God my Saviour.

For he hath regarded : the
lowliness of bis handmaiden.

For, behold, from henceforth :
all generations shall call me
blessed.

For he that is mighty hath
magnified me : and holy is his
Name.

And bis mercy is on them that
fear bim : throughout all gene-
rations.

He bath shewed strength with
bis arm : be hath scattered the
proud in the imagination of their
hearts.

He bath put down tbe mighty
from their seat: and hath ex-
alted the bumble and meek.

Hehath filled the hungry with
good things : and the rich he
bath sent empty away.

He remembering bis mercy,
hath holpen bis servant Israel :
as he promised to our fore-
fathers, Abraham and his seed,
for ever.

Glory be to the Father, and to
the Son : and to tbe Holy Ghost.

As it was in tbe beginning, is

Which faith, except every one

And the Catholick Faith is
this : That we worship one God

Neither confounding the Per-

For there is one Person of the
Father, another of the Son : and
another of tlie Holy Ghost.

But the Godhead of the Fa-

Agus gidheadh cha tri Dee

Mac : agus is Tighearna an Spio-
rad Naomh.

Agus gidheadh cha tri Tigh-
earnan iad : ach aon Tighearna.

Oir amhuil mar a ta sinn air

The Father incomprehensible,
the Son incomprehensilile : and
the Holy Ghost incomprehen-
sible.

The Father eternal, the Son
eternal : and the Holy Ghost
eternal.

And yet they are not three
eternals : but one eternal.

As also there are not three
incomprehensibles, nor three un-
created : but one uncreated, and
one incomprehensible.

So likewise the Father is Al-
mighty, the Son Almighty : and
the Holy Ghost Almighty.

And yet they are not three
Almighties : but one Almighty.

So the Father is God, the Son
is God : and the Holy Ghost is
God.

And yet they are not three
Gods : but one (jrod.

So likewise the Father is Lord,
the Son Lord : and the Holy
Ghost Lord ;

And yet not three Lords : but
one Lord.

For like as Ave are compelled
by the Christian verity : to ac-
knowledge every Person by him-
self to be God and Lord ;

So are we forbidden by the
Catholick Religion : to say, There
be three Gods, or three Lords.

The Father is made of none :
neither created, nor begotten.

The Son is of the Father
alone : not made, nor created,
but bei2:otten,

Mar sin a ta aon Athair ann, ni

h-è tri Mic: aon Spiorad Naomh,
ni h-e tri Spioraid Naoimh.

Agus anus an Trionaid, so clia
'n 'eil aon roimh no an deigh a
cheile : cha'n 'eil aon na's mo no
na's lugha 'na cheile ;

Acb a ta natri Pearsanna uile
co-shiorrnidh le cheile : agus co-
ionnan.

Mar sin annsnah-uile nithibh,
mar a thubhairteadh roimhe : is
coir aoradh thoirt do'n Aonachd
ann an Trionaidh,agus do'n Trio-
naid ann an Aonachd.

Dime sin an ti leis an ail bhi
air a shabhaladh : feumaidh è
smuairiteachadh mar so air an
Trionaid.

Os-barr, tha e feumail chum
slàinte shiorruidh : gu'n creideadh
è gu ceait mar an ceudna gu'n do
ghabh ar Tighearna losa Criosd
feoil dhaoine air fein.

Oir is è an Creidimh fior, gu'n
creid agus gu'n aidich sinn : gu
bheil ar Tighearna losa Criosd,
Mac Dhe, 'na Dhia agus 'na
Dhuine ;

Dia do nadar an Athar, ginte
roimh na saoghail : agus Duine
do nadar a Mhathar, a rugadh
anns an t-saoghal :

Dia iomlan, agus Duine iom-
lan, air a dheanamh suas do anam
reusanta: agus do fh coil dhaoine;

Co-ionnan ris an Athair, a
tbaobh a Dhiadhachd: ach na's
isle na 'n t-Athair, a thaobh a
Dhaoiinachd.

An Ti ged tha è 'na Dhia agus
'na Dhuine : gidheadh cha da
Chriosd e, ach aon :

Aon ; cha'n ann le tiondadh
an Diadhachd gu feoil: ach le
gabhail na Daonnachd gu Dia ;
31

made, nor created, nor begotten,
but proceeding.

So there is one Father, not
three Fathers ; one Son, not
three Sons : one Holy Ghost,
not three Holy Ghosts.

And in this Trinity none is
afore, or alter other : none is
greater, or less than another ;

But the whole Three Persons
are co-eternal together : and co-
equal.

So that in all things, as is
aforesaid : the Unity in Trinity,
and the Trinity in Unity, is to
be worshipped.

He therefore that will be
saved : must thus think of the
Trinity.

Furthermore, it is necessary to
everlasting salvation : that he
also believe rightly the Incarna-
tion of our Lord Jesus Christ.

For the right Faith is, that
we believe and confess : that
our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son
of God, is God and Man ;

God, of the Substance of the
Father, begotten before the
worlds : and ]\Ian, of the Sub-
stance of his Mother, born in the
world ;

Perfect God and perfect Man :
of a reasonable soul, and human
flesh subsisting;

Equal to the Father, as touch-
ing his Godhead : and inferior
to the Father, as touching his
Manhood.

Who although he be God and
Man : yet he is not two, but
one Christ ;

One ; not by conversion of
the Godhead into flesh : but by
taking of the Manhood into Godj

Mar bha air tus, a ta nis, agus

One altogether ; not by con-
fusion of Substance : but by unity
of Person.

For as the reasonable soul and
flesh is one man : so God and
Man is one Christ :

Who suffered for our salva-
tion : descended into hell, rose
again tbe third day from the
dead.

He ascended into heaven ; he
sitteth on the right hand of the
Father, God Almighty : from
whence he shall come to judge
the quick and the dead.

At whose coming all men shall
rise again with their bodies: and
shall give account fur their own
works.

But they that have done good,
shall go into life everlasting :
and they that have done evil,
into everlasting fire.

This is the^Catholick Faith:
which except a man believe
faithfully, he cannot be saved.

Glory be to the Father, and to
the Son : and to the Holy Ghost;

As it was in the beginning, is
now, and ever shall be : world
without end. Amen.

brought the ass, and the colt,
and put on them their clothes,
and thej set him thereon. And
a very great multitude spread
their garments in the way ;
others cut down branches from
the trees, and strewed them in
the way. And the multitudes
that went before, and that fol-

This is Jesus the prophet of

and bought in the temple, and
overthrew the tables of the

comfort of the Scriptures, might
have hope. Now the God of
patience and consolation grant
you to be like-minded one to-
wards another, according to
Christ Jesus : that ye may with
one mind, and one mouth, glorify
God, even the Father of our
Lord Jesus Christ. Wherefore
receive ye one another, as Christ
also received us, to the glory of
God. Now I say, that Jesus
Christ was a minister of tbe
circumcision for tbe truth of
God, to confirm the promises
made unto the fathers : And
that the Gentiles might glorify
God for his mercy ; as it is
written. For this cause I will
confess to thee among the Gen-
tiles, and sing unto thy Name.
And again he saith. Rejoice, ye
Gentiles, with his people. And
again, Praise the Lord, all ye
Gentiles, and laud him, all ye
people. And again, Esaias saith,
There shall be a root of Jesse,
and he that shall rise to reign
over the Gentiles, in him shall
the Gentiles trust. Now the
God of hope fill you with all joy
and peace in believing, that 3'e
may abound in hope, through
the power of the Holy Ghost.

it is a very small tbing that
I should be judged of you, or of

not mine own self For I know
nothing by myself, yet am I not

The Gospel. St. John i. 19.

THIS is the record of John,
when the Jews sent priests
and Levites from Jerusalem to
ask him. Who art thou ? And he
confessed, and denied not ; but
confessed, I am not the Christ.
And they asked him, What
then ? Art thou Elias ? And he
saith, I am not. Art thou that
])rophet ? And he answered. No.
Then said they unto him. Who
art thou ? that we may give an
answer to them that sent us.
AVhat saj^est thou of thyself .^ He
said, I am the voice of one cry-
ing in the wilderness, Make
straight the way of the Lord, as
said the prophet Esaias. And
they which were sent were of the
Pharisees. And they asked him,
and said unto him, Why bap-
tizest thou then, if thou be not
that Christ, nor Elias, neither
that prophet.'^ John answered
them, saying, I baptize with
water : but there standeth one
among you, whom ye know not ;
He it is, who coming after me
is preferred before me, whose
shoe's latchet I am not worthy to
unloose. These things were done
in Bethabara, beyond Jordan,
where John was baptizing.

IN the beginning was the
Word, and the Word was
with God, and the Word was
God. The same was in the
beginning with God. All things
were made by him ; and without
him was not anj- thing made
that was made. In him was
life ; and the life was the light
of men. And the light shineth
in darkness ; and the darkness
comprehended it not. There was
a man sent from God, whose
name was John. The same
came for a witness, to bear
witness of the Light, that all
men through him might believe.
He was not that Light, but was
sent to bear witness of that
Light. That was the true Light,
which lighteth every man that
Cometh into the world. He was
in the world, and the world 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 re-
ceived him, to them gave he
power to become the sons of
God, even to them that believe
on his name : which were born,
not of blood, nor of the will of
the flesh, nor of the will of man,
but of God. And the Word was

THAT which was from the

our eyes, which we have looked
upon, and our hands have

(For the life was manifested, and
we have seen it, and bear wit-

the Father, and was mani-
fested unto us ;) That which
we have seen and heard de-
clare we unto you, that ye

And these things wrire \\c uu-

That God is light, and in him
is no darkness at all. If we
say that we have fellowship
with him, and walk in dark-
ness, we lie, and do not the
truth : but if we walk in the
light, as he is in the light, we
have fellowship one with an-
other, and the blood of Jesus
Christ his Son cleanseth us from
all sin. If we say that we have
no sin, we deceive ourselves,
and the truth is not in us. If
we confess our sins, he is faith-
ful and just to forgive us our
sins, and to cleanse us from all
unrighteousness. If we say that

The Gospel. St. John xxi. 1,0,
ESUS said unto Peter, Fol-
ow me. Then Peter, turn-
ing about, seeth the disciple
whom Jesus loved following,
which also leaned on his breast
at supper, and said, Lord, which
is he that betrayeth thee ? Peter
seeing him, saith to Jesus, Lord,
and what shall this man do.^
Jesus saith unto him, If I will
that he ÌAxry till I come, what
is that to thee.^ follow thou me.
Then went this saying abroad
among the brethren, That that
disciple should not die : yet
Jesus said not unto him, He
shall not die ; but, If I will that
he tarry till I come, what is that
to thee? This is the disciple
which testifieth of these things,
and wrote these things : and we
know that his testimony is true.
And there are also many other
things which Jesus did, the
which if they should be written
every one, I suppose that even
the world itself could not con-
tain the books that should be
written.

of a great thunder : and I heard
the voice of harpers harping with
their harps : and they sung as
it were a new song before the
throne, and before the four
beasts, and the elders ; and no
man could learn that song but
the hundred and forty and four
thousand, which were redeemed

shall bring forth a son, and thou
shalt call his name JESUS ; for

done, that it might be fulfilled

AND it came to pass, as tbe
angels were gone away
from tbem into heaven, tbe
shepherds said one to another.
Let us now go even unto Beth-
lehem, and see this thing which
is come to pass, which tbe
Lord hath made known unto
us. And they came with baste,
and found Mary and Joseph,
and the babe lying in a manger,
And when they had seen it,
they made known abroad the
saying which was told tbem
concerning this child. And all
they that heard it wondered at
those things which were told
them by the shepherds. But
Mary kept all these things, and
pondered them in her heart.
And the shepherds returned,
glorif^nng and praising God for
all the things that they had
heard and seen, as it was told
unto them. And when eight
days were accomplished for the
circumcising of the child, his
name was called JESUS, which
was so named of the angel be-
fore he was conceived in the
womb.

WHEX Jesus was born in
Bethlehem of Judea, in
j the days of Herod the king, be-
I hold, there came wise men from
the east to Jerusalem, saying.
Where is he that is born King
of the Jews ? for we have seen
his star in the east, and are come
to worship him. When Herod
the king had heard these things,
he was troubled, and all Jeru-
salem with him. And when he
had gathered all the chief priests
and scribes of the people to-
I gether, he demanded of them,
where Christ should be born.
And they said unto him. In
Bethlehem of Judea : for thus it
is written by the prophet. And
thou Bethlehem, in the land of
Juda, art not the least among
the princes of Juda : for out of
thee shall come a Governor, that
shall rule my people Israel.
Then Herod, when he had privily
called the wise men, inquired of
them diligently what time the
star appeared. And he sent
them to Bethlehem : and said,
Go and search diligently for the
young child ; and when ye have
found hira, bring me word again,

not to think of himself more

they had fulfilled the days, as
they returned, the child Jesus
tarried behind in Jerusalem; and
Joseph and his mother knew not
of it. But they, supposing him
to have been in the company,
went a day's journey ; and they
sought him among their kinsfolk
and acquaintance. And when
they found him not, they turned
back again to Jerusalem, seek-

that after three days they found
him in the temple, sitting in
the midst of the doctors, both
hearing them, and asking them
questions. And all that heard
him were astonished at his un-

ALMIGHTY and everlasting
God, mercifully look upon

dangers and necessities stretch
fortb thy right hand to help and
defend us ; through Jesus Christ
our Lord. Amen.

The Epistle. Rom. xii. 16.

BE not wise in your own
conceits. Recompense to
no man evil for evil. Provide
things bonest in tbe sight of
all men. If it be possible, as
mucb as lieth in you, live peace-
ably with all men. Dearly be-
loved, avenge not yourselves ;
but rather give jjlace unto
wrath : for it is written. Ven-
geance is mine ; I will repay,
saith the Lord. Therefore, if
thine enemy hunger, feed him ;
if he tbirst, give him drink :
for in so doing thou sbalt heap
coals of fire on his head. Be
not overcome of evil, but over-
come evil with good.

Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst
make me clean. And Jesus put
forth his hand, and touched him,
saj'ing, I will ; be thou clean.
And immediately his leprosy
was cleansed. And Jesus saitli
unto him. See thou tell no man;
but go thy way, shew thyself to
the priest, and oiler the gift that
Moses commanded, for a testi-
mony unto them. And when
Jesus was entered into Caper-
naum, there came unto him a
centurion, beseeching him, and
saying, Lord, my servant lieth
at home sick of the pal-^}-, griev-
ousl}^ tormented. And Jesus
saith unto him, I will come and
heal him. The centurion an-
swered and said, Lord, I am
not worthy that thou shouldst
come under my roof: but speak
I the word onh^ and my servant
j shall be healed. For I am a
I man under authority, having
I soldiers under me : and I say to
this man. Go, and he goeth;
and to another. Come, and he
' Cometh ; and to my servant, Do
: this, and he doeth it. When
I Jesus heard it, he marvelled,
and said to them that followed,
Yerily I say unto you, I have
not found so great faith, no not
in Israel. And I say unto you,
That many shall come from the
east and west, and shall sit
down wdth Abraham, and Isaac,
and Jacob, in the kingdom of
heaven. But the children of
the kingdom shall be cast out
into outer darkness : there shall
be weeping and gnashing oi
teeth. And Jesus said snto
the centurion. Go thy way, and
as thou hast believed, so be it
done unto thee. And his ser-
vant was healed in the seU-same
hour.

The Epidle. Rom. xiii. 1.

LET every soul be subject
unto the higher powers ;
for there is no power but of
God : the powers that be are
ordained of God. Whosoever
therefore resistetb the power
resisteth the ordinance of God :
and they that resist shall re-
ceive to themselves damnation.
For rulers are not a terror to
good works, but to the evil.
Wilt thou then not be afraid
of the power ? do that which
is good, and thou shalt have
praise of the same : for be is
the minister of God to thee
for good. But if thou do that
which is evil, be afraid; for
be beareth not the sword in
vain : for be is the minister
of God, a revenger to execute
wrath upon him that doeth
evil. Wherefore ye must needs
be subject, not only for wrath,
but also for conscience sake.
For, for this cause pay ye tri-
bute also ; for the}'- are God's
ministers, attending continually
upon this very thing. Render

BEHOLD, what manner of
love the Father hath be-

be called the sons of God :
therefore the world knoweth us
not, because it knew him not.
Beloved, now are we the sons of
God ; and it doth not yet appear
what we shall be : but we know
that, when he shall appear, we
shall be like him ; for we shall
see him as he is. And every
man that hath this hope in him
purifieth himself even as he is
pure. Whosoever committeth
sin transgresseth also the law ;
for sin is the transgression of
the law. And ye know that he
was manifested to take away
our sins ; and in him is no sin.
Whosoever abideth in him sin-
neth not : whosoever sinneth,
hath not seen him, neither
known him. Little children, let
no man deceive you: he that
doeth righteousness is righte-
ous even as he is righteous.
He that committeth sin, is of
the devil ; for the devil sinneth
from the beginning. For this
purpose the Son of God was
manifested, that he might de-
stroy the works of the devil.

THEN if an}' man shall say
unto you. Lo, here is Christ,
or there ; believe it not. For
there shall arise false Christs,
and false prophets, and shall
shew great signs and wonders ;
insomuch that, if it were pos-
sible, they shall deceive the very
elect. Behold, I have told you
before. Wherefore if they shall
say unto you. Behold, he is in
the desert ; go not forth : Be-
hold, he is in the secret cham-
bers ; believe it not. For as
the lightning cometh out of the
east, and shineth even unto the
west ; so shall also the coming of
the Son of Man be. For where-
soever the carcase is, there will
the eagles be gathered together.
Immediately after the tribula-
tion of those days shall the sun
be darkened, and the moon shall
not give her light, and the stars
shall fall fi'om heaven, and the
powers of the heavens shall be

So run, that ye may obtain.
And every man that striveth for

stand ye here all the day idle ?
They say unto him. Because no
man hath hired us. He saith
unto them. Go ye also into
the vineyard ; and whatsoever
is right, that shall ye receive.
So when even was come, the
lord of the vinej'^ard saith unto
his steward. Call the labourers,
and give them their hire, be-
ginning from the last unto the
first. And when they came that
were hired about the eleventh
hour, they received every man
a penny. Bat when the first
came, they supposed that they
should have received more ; and
they likewise received every man
a penny. And when they had
received it, they murmured
against the good man of the
house, saying. These last have
wrought but one hour, and thou
hast made them equal unto us,
which have borne the burden
and heat of the day. But lio
answered one of them, and said.
Friend, I do thee no wrong :
didst not thou agree with me
for a penny ? Take that thine is,
and go thy way : I will give
unto this last even as unto thee.
Is it not lawful for me to do
what I will with mine own ?
Is thine eye evil, because I am
good ? So the last shall be first,
and the first last : for many be
called, but few chosen.

The Gospel. St. Luke viii. 4.

WHEN much people were
gathered together, and
were come to him out of every
city, he spake by a parable :
A sower went out to sow his
seed : and as he sowed, some
fell by the way-side ; and it was
trodden down, and the fowls of
the air devoured it. And some
fell upon a rock ; and as soon
as it was sprung up, it withered
away, because it lacked moisture.
And some fell among thorns ;
and the thorns sprang up wdth
it, and choked it. And others
fell on good ground, and sprang
up, and bare fruit an hundred-
fold. And when he had said
these things, he cried, He that
hath ears to hear, let him hear.
And his disciples asked him,
saying, What might this parable
be ? And he said, Unto you it
is given to know the mysteries
of the kingdom of God : but to
others in parables ; that seeing
they might not see, and hearing
they might not understand. Now

air a' charraig, is iad sin iadsan,
an uair a dh'eisdeas iad, a gha-

the parable is this : The seed is
the word of God. Those by the
way-side are they that hear; then
Cometh the devil, and taketh
away the word out of their
hearts, lest they should believe
and be saved. They on the rock
are they, which, when the}' hear,
receive the word with joy; and
these have no root, which for
a while believ^e, and in time of
temptation fall away. And that
which fell among thorns are
they, which, when they have
heard, go forth, and are choked
with cares and riches and plea-
sures of this life, and bring no
fruit to perfection. But that on
the good ground are they, which,
in an honest and good heart,
having heard the word, keep
it, and bring forth fruit with
patience.

The Epistle. 1 Cor, xiii. 1.

THOUGH I speak with the
tongues of men and of
angels, and have not charity,
I am become as sounding brass,
or a tinkling cymbal. And
though I have the gift of pro-
phecy, and understand all m3's-
teries, and all knowledge ; and
though I have all faith, so
that I could remove mountains,
and have not charity, I am no-
thing. And though I bestow
all my goods to feed the
poor, and though I give my
body to be burnsd, and have
not charity, it profiteth me no-
thing. Charity sutfereth long,
and is kind; charity envieth
not ; charit}'- vaunteth not it-
self, is not puffed up, doth not
behave itself unseemly, seek-
eth not lier own, is not easily
provoked, thinketh no evil ; re-
joiceth not in iniquity, but
rejoiceth in the truth ; beareth
all things, believeth all things,
hopeth all things, endureth all
things. Charity never faileth :
but whether there be prophe-
cies, they shall fail ; whether
there be tongues, they shall
cease ; whether there be know-
ledge, it shall vanish away. For
we know in part, and we pro-

THEN Jesus took unto him
the twelve, and said unto
them, Behold, we go up to
Jerusalem, and all things that
are written b}' the prophets con-
cerning the Son of man shall be
accomplished. For he sball be
delivered unto the Gentiles, and
shall be mocked, and spitefully
entreated, and spitted on : and
they shall scourge him, and put
him to death : and the third day
he shall rise again. And they
understood none of these things :
and this saying was hid from
them, neither knew they the
things which were spoken. And
it came to pass, that as he was
come nigh unto Jericho, a certain
blind man sat by the way-side
begging : and hearing the multi-
tude pass by, he asked what it
meant. And they told him that
Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.
And he cried, saying, Jesus,
tbou son of David, have mercy
on me. And they which went
before rebuked him, that he
should hold his peace: but he
cried so much the more. Thou
son of David, have mercy on
me. And Jesus stood, and com-
manded him to be brought unto
him : and when he was come

he is gracious and merciful, slow
to anger, and of great kindness,
and repenteth him of the evil.
Who knoweth if he will return

WHEN ye fast, be not as
tbe hypocrites, of a sad
countenance : for they disfigure
their fices, that they may ap-
pear unto men to fast. Verily I
say unto you. They have their
reward. But thou, when thou
fastest, anoint thine head, and
wash t\iy face ; that thou appear
not unto men to fast, but unto
thy Father which is in secret :
and thy Father, which seeth in
secret, shall reward thee openly.
Lay not up for yourselves trea-
sures upon earth, w^here moth
and rust doth corrupt, and
Avhere thieves break tbi-ougb
and steal : but lay up for your-
selves treasures in heaven, where
neither moth nor rust doth cor-
rupt, and where thieves do not
break through nor steal : For
where your treasvire is, there
will your heart be also.

He shall give his angels charge

said unto him, It is wi'itten

ALMIGHTY God, who seest
that we have no power of

Keep us both outwardly in our

happen to the body, and from
all evil thoughts which may
assault and hurt the soul ;

WE beseech you, brethren,

Lord Jesus, that as ye have re-

walk, and to please God, so
ye would abound more and
more. For ye know what com.
mandments we gave you by
the Lord Jesus. For this is the
will of God, even your sancti-
fication, that ye should abstain
from fornication ; that every
one of you should know how
to possess his vessel in sancti-
firation and honour; not in
the lust of concupiscence, even
as the Gentiles which know
not God ; that no man go be-
yond and defraud his brother
in any matter; because that
the Lord is the avenger of all
such, as we also have fore-
warned you, and testified. For
God hath not called us unto
uncleanness, but unto holiness.

a woman of Canaan came out of
the same coasts, and cried unto
him, saying, Have mercy on
me, O Lord, thou Son of Da-
vid ; my daughter is grievously
vexed with a devil. But he
answered her not a word. And
his disciples came and be-
sought him, saying, Send her
away ; for she crieth after us.
But he answered and said, I
am not sent but unto the lost
sheep of the house of Israel.
Then came she and worship-
ped him, saying. Lord, help
me. But he answered and said.
It is not meet to take the
children's bread, and to cast
it to dogs. And she said,
Truth, Lord ; yet the dogs eat
of the crumbs which fall from
their master's table. Then Je-
sus answered and said unto her,

be it unto thee even as thou
wilt. And her daughter was

The Gospel. St. Luke xi. 14.

JESUS was casting out a
devil, and it was dumb.
And it came to pass, wben tbe
devil was gone out, tbe dumb
spake ; and tbe people won-
dered. But some of tbem said,
He castetb out devils tbrough
Beelzebub, tbe cbief of the
devils. And otbers, tempting
bim, sougbt of bim a sign
from beaven. Bat be, know-
ing tbeir tbougbts, said unto
tbem, Every kingdom divided
against itself is brougbt to de-
solation ; and a bouse divided
against a bouse falletb. If Sa-
tan also be divided against him-
self, bow sball bis kingdom
stand ? because ye say, that I
cast out devils tbrough Beelze-
bub. And if I by Beelzebub
cast out devils, by whom do
your sons cast them out.^^ there-
fore sball they be your judges.
But if 1 with tbe linger of
God cast out devils, no doubt
the kingdom of God is come
upon you. When a strong
man armed keepeth his pa-
lace, his goods are in peace ;
but when a stronger than he
sball come upon him, and over-
come him, he taketh irom him
all bis armour wherein he trust-
ed, and divideth his spoils.
He that is not with me is a-
gainst me : and be that ga-
tbereth not with me scattereth.
Wben the unclean sjurit is
gone out of a man, he walketh
through dry places, seeking rest ;
and tinding none, be saith, I
Avill return unto my house
whence I came out. And when

For this Agar is mount Sinai

But Jerusalem which is above

joice, thou barren that bearest
: not ; break forth and cry, thou
I that travailest not : for the de-
solate bath many more children

JESUS went over the sea of

saw his miracles which he did
on them that were diseased.
And Jesus went up into a moun-
tain, and there be sat with his
disciples. And the passover,
a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
When Jesus then lifted up his
eyes, and saw a great company
come unto him, he saith unto
Philip, Whence shall we buy
bread, that these may eat ? (And
this he said to prove him : for
be himself knew what be would
do.) Philip answered him, Two

LET this mind be in you,
which was also in Christ
Jesus : who, being in the form of
God, thought it not robbery to
be equal with God ; but made
himself of no reputation, and
took upon him the form of a
servant, and was made in the
likeness of men : and being found
in fashion as a man, he humbled
himself, and became obedient
unto death, even the death of
the cross. Wherefore God also
' hath highl}- exalted him, and
I given him a name which is above
every name ; that at the name
of Jesus every knee should bow,
of things in heaven, and things
in earth, and things under the
earth ; and that every tongue
should confess that Jesus Christ
is Lord, to the glory of God the
Father.

whom they of the children of
Israel did value ; and gave them

appointed me.) And Jesus stood
before the governor ; and the
governor asked him, saying. Art
thou the King of the Jews ?
And Jesus said unto him. Thou
sayest. And when be was ac-
cused of the chief priests and
elders, be answered nothing.
Then saith Pilate unto him,
Hearcst thou not how many
things they witness against thee ?
And he answered him to never
a word ; insomuch that the
governor marvelled greatl}'.
Now at that feast the governor
was wont to release unto the
people a prisoner, whom they
would. And they bad then a
notable prisoner, called Barab-
bas. Therefore, when they were
gathered together, Pilate said
unto them, Whom will 3'e that

have suffered man}' things this
day in a dream because of him.
But the chief priests and elders
persuaded the multitude that
they should ask Barabbas, and
destroy Jesus. The governor
answered and said unto them,
Whether of the twain will
ye that I release unto you?
They said, Barabbas. Pilate
saith unto them. What shall I
do then with Jesus, which is
called Christ? They all say
unto him, Let him be crucified.
And the governor said, Why,
what evil hath he done? But
they cried out the more, saying,
Let him be crucified. When
Pilate saw that he could prevail
nothing, but that rather a tumult
was made, he took water, and
washed his hands before the
' multitude, saying, I am innocent
of the blood of this just person :
see ye to it. Then answered all
the people, and said. His blood
be on us, and on our children.
Then released he Barabbas unto
Ì them: and when he had scourged
i Jesus, he delivered him to be
i crucified. Then the soldiers of
the governor took Jesus into the
I common hall, and gathered unto
[ him the whole band of soldiers,
! And they stripped him, and put
j on him a scarlet robe. And
when they had platted a crown
I of thorns, they put it upon his
! head, and a reed in his right

before him, and mocked him,
saying. Hail, King of the Jews!
And they spit upon him, and
took the reed, and smote him on
the head. And after that they
had mocked him, they took the
robe off from him, and put his
own raiment on him, and led
him away to crucify him. And

as they came out, they found
a man of Cyrene, Simon by
name ; him they compelled to
bear bis cross. And when they
were come unto a place called
Golgotha, that is to say, A place
of a scull, they gave him vine-
gar to drink mingled with gall :
and when be had tasted thereof,
be would not drink. And they
crucified him, and parted his
garments, casting lots ; that it
might be fulfilled which was
spoken by the prophet, They
parted my garments among
them, and upon my vesture did
they cast lots. And sitting
down, they watched him there ;
and set up over bis bead this
accusation written, THIS IS
JESUS THE KING OF THE
JEWS. Then were there two
thieves crucified with him ; one
on the right hand, and another
on the left. And they that
passed by reviled him, wagging
their heads, and saying. Thou
that destroy est the temple, and
buildest it in three days, save
thyself. If thou be the Son of
God, come down from the cross.
Likewise also the chief priests
mocking him, with the scribes
and elders, said, He saved
others, himself he cannot save.
If be be the King of Israel, let
him now come down from the
cross, and we will believe him.
He trusted in God ; let him
deliver him now, if be will have
him : for he said, I am the Son
of God. The thieves also,
which were crucified with him,
cast the same in bis teeth.
Now from the sixth hour there
was darkness over all the land
unto the ninth hour. And
about the ninth hour Jesus
ci-ied with a loud voice, saying,

Some of them that stood there,
when they heard that, said,
This man calleth for Elias.
And straightway one of them
ran, and took a spunge, and
filled it with vinegar, and put it
on a reed, and gave him to
drink. The rest said. Let be,
let us see whether Elias will
come to save him. Jesus, when
he had cried again with a loud
voice, yielded up the ghost.
And, behold, the veil of the
temple was rent in twain from
the top to the bottom ; and the
earth did quake, and the rocks
rent; and the graves were
opened ; and many bodies of
the saints which slept arose,
and came out of the graves after
his resurrection, and went into
the holy city, and appeared unto
many. Now when the cen-
turion, and they tbat were with
him, watching Jesus, saw the
earthquake, and those things
that were done, they feared
greatly, saying, Truly this was

Moses and bis people, sajdng,
Where is be that brought them

that put bis Holy Spirit within

ous arm, dividing the water be-

didst thou lead thy people, to
make thyself a gloiious Name.
Look down from heaven, and be-

Are they restrained? Doubt-

and Israel acknowledge us not :
Thou, O Lord, art our Father,
our Eedeemer, thy Name is

why hast thou made us to err

turn for thy servants' sake, the

thou never barest rule overthem;
they were not called by thy Name.

ing in Bethany, in the house
of Simon the leper, as he sat
at meat, there came a woman
having an alabaster box of oint-
ment of spikenard, very preci-
ous ; and she brake the box,
and poured it on his head. And
there were some that had indig-
nation within themselves, and
said, Why was this waste of the
ointment made ? for it misrht
have been sold for more than
three hundred pence, and have
been given to the poor : and
they murmured against her.
And Jesus said. Let her alone ;
why trouble ye her? she hath
wrought a good work on me :
for ye have the poor with you
always, and whensoever ye will
ye may do them good ; but me
ye have not always. She hath
done what she could ; she is
come aforehand to anoint my
body to the burying. Verily
I say unto you, Wheresoever
this Gospel shall be preached
throughout the whole world,
this also that she hath done
shall be spoken of for a memo-

one of the twelve, went unto
the chief priests to betra}' him

heard it they were glad, and
promised to give him money.
And he sought how he might

went forth, and came into tbe
city, and found as he had said
unto them : and they made rea-
dy the passover. And in the
evening he cometb with the
twelve. And as they sat and
did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say
unto you, One of you Avhich
eateth with me shall betray me.
And they began to be sorrow-
ful, and to say unto him, one by
one. Is it I ? and another said.
Is it I ? And be answered and
said unto them, It is one of tbe
twelve that dippeth with me in
the dish. Tbe Son of Man in-
deed goeth, as it is written of
him : but wo to that man by
whom the Son of Man is be-
trayed : good were it for that
man if he had never been born.
And as they did eat, Jesus took
bread, and blessed, and brake
it, and gave to them, and said,
Take, eat : this is my body.
And he took the cup, and when
he had given thanks he gave
it to them : and the}" all drank
of it. And he said unto them.
This is my blood of the new-
testament, which is shed for
many. Verily I saj^ unto you,
I will drink no more of the
fruit of the vine, until that
day that I drink it new in the
Kingdom of God. And Avhen

tliem, All ye shall be offend-
ed because of me this night :
for it is written, I will smite
the shepherd, and the sheep
shall be scattered. But, after
that I am risen, I will go be-

all shall be offended, yet will
not I. And Jesus saith unto
him, Verily I say unto thee,
That this day, even in this
night, before the cock crow
twice, thou shalt deny me
thrice. But he spake the more
vehemently. If I should die
with thee, I will not deny thee
in any wise. Likewise also said
they all. And they came to a
place which was named Geth-
semane : and he saith to his
disciples, Sit ye here, while I
shall pray. And he taketh with
him, Peter and James, and
John, and began to be sore
amazed, and to be very heavy,
and saith unto them. My soul is
exceeding sorrowful unto death :
tarry ye here, and watch. And
he went forward a little, and
fell on the ground, and pray-

the servants, and warmed him-
self at the fire. And the chief
priests and all the council
sought for witness against Je-
sus to put him to death ; and
found none. For many bare
false witness against him, but
their witness agreed not toge-
ther. And there arose certain,
and bare false witness agiinst
him, saying. We heard him say,
I will destroy this temple that
is made with hands, and within
three days I will build another
made without hands. But nei-
ther so did their witness agree
together. And the high priest
stood up in the midst, and
asked Jesus, saying, Answerest
thou nothing ? what is it which
these witness against thee ? But
he held his peace, and answered
nothing. Again the high priest
asked him, and said unto him.
Art thou the Christ, the Son of
the Blessed.? And Jesus said,
I am ; and ye shall see the Son
of Man sitting on the right
hand of power, and coming in
the clouds of heaven. Then
the high priest rent his clothes,
and saith, What need we any
further witnesses ? ye have
heard the blasphemy : what
think ye ? And they all con-
demned him to be guilty of
death. And some began to spit
on him, and to cover his face,
and to buffet him, and to sa}'
unto him. Prophesy : and the
servants did strike him with the
palms of their hands. And as
Peter was beneath in the palace

at tbat feast be released unto
tbem one prisoner, whomsoever
they desired. And there was
one named Barabbas, which lay
bound with them that had made
insurrection with him, who bad
committed murder in the insur-
rection. And the multitude,
crying aloud, began to desire
him to do as he had ever done
unto them. But Pilate an-
swered them, saying, Will ye
that I release unto 3'ou the King
of the Jews ? (for he knew tbat
the chief priests had delivered
him for envy.) But the chief
priests moved the people, that
he should rather release Barab-
bas unto tbem. And Pilate
answered, and said again unto
them. What will ye then tbat I
shall do unto him whom ye call
the King of the Jews ? And
they cried out again, Crucify
him. Then Pilate said unto
them, Why, what evil hath he
done ? And they cried out the
more exceedingly, Crucify him.
And so Pilate, willing to content
the people, released Barabbas
unto them, and delivered Jesus,
when he had scourged him, to
be crucified. And the soldiers
led him away into the hall called
Pretorium ; and the}^ call to-
gether the whole band. And
they clothed him with purple,
and platted a crown of thorns,
and put it about his head ; and
began to salute him. Hail, King
of the Jews ! And tliey smote
him on the head with a reed,
and did spit upon him, and,
bowing their knees, worshipped
him. And when they had
mocked him, they took off the
purple from him, and put his
own clothes on him, and led him

of a scull. And they gave him
to drink wine mingled with
myrrh : but he received it not.
And when they had crucified
him, they parted his garments,
casting lots upon them, what
every man should take. And
it was the third hour, and they
crucified him. And the super-
scription of his accusation was
written over, THE KING OF
THE JEWS. And with him
they crucify two thieves ; the
one on his right hand, and the
other on his left. And the
Scripture was fulfilled, which
saith, And he was numbered
with the transgressors. And they
that passed by railed on him,
wagging their heads, and saying,
Ah, thou that destroyest the
temple, and buildest it in three
days, save thyself, and come
down from the cross. Likewise
also the chief priests, mocking,
said among themselves, wdth the
scribes, He saved others ; him-
self he cannot save. Let Christ
the King of Israel descend now
from the cross, that w-e maj^ see
and believe. And they that
\vere crucified with him reviled
hira. And when the sixth hour
was come, there was darkness
over the whole land until the
ninth hour. And at the ninth
hour Jesus cried with a loud
voice, saying, Eioi, Eloi, lama
sahachthanl? which is, being
interpreted. My God, my God,
why hast thou forsaken me?
And some of them that stood
by, when they heard it, said,

WHERE a testament is,
there must also of neces-
sity be the death of the testator :
For a testament is of force after
men are dead ; otherwise it is of
no strength at all whilst the tes-
tator liveth. Whereupon neither
the first testament was dedicated
without blood. For when Moses
had spoken every precept to all
the people, according to the law,
he took the blood of calves and
of goats, with water, and scarlet
wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled
both the book and all the people,
saying, This is the blood of the
testament which God hath en-
joined unto you. Moreover, he

tabernacle, and all the vessels of
the ministr}'. And almost all
things are by tbe law purged
with blood ; and without shed-
ding of blood is no remission.
It was therefore necessary that
the patterns of things in the hea-
vens should be purified with
these; but the heaven h- things
themselves with better sacrifices
than these. For Christ is not
entered into the holy places
made with hands, which are the
figures of the true ; but into
heaven itself, now to appear in
the presence of God for us :
Nor yet that he should offer
himself often, as the high priest
entereth into the holy place
every year with blood of others ;
for then must he often have suf-
fered since the foundation of the
world : but now once, in the
end of the world hath he ap-
peared to put away sin by the
sacrifice of himself. And as it
is appointed unto men once to
die, but after this the judge-
ment : so Christ w^as once offered
to bear the sins of many ; and
unto them that look for him shall
he appear the second time with-
out sin, unto salvation.

NOW the feast of unleavened

called the Passover. And the

the day of unleavened bread,
when the passover must be

Where wilt thou that we pre-

With desire I have desired to

I suffer : for I say unto you, I
will not any more eat thereof,
until it be fulfilled in the king-

cup, and gave thanks, and said.
Take this, and divide it among

I will not drink of the fruit of

This cup is the new testament

man by whom he is betrayed.
And they began to inquire
among themselves, which of

strife among them, which of
them should be accounted the
greatest.. And he said unto
them, the kings of the Gentiles
exercise lordship over them ;
and they that exercise authority
upon them are called Benefac-

he that is greatest among you,
let him be as the younger ; and
he that is chief, as he that doth

he that sitteth at meat, or he
that serveth ? is not he that sit-
teth at meat ? but I am among

must yet be accomplished in me,
And he was reckoned among the

And they said, Lord, behold,
here are two swords. And he
said unto them, It is enough.
And he came out, and went, as
he was wont to the mount of
Olives ; and his disciples also
followed him. And when he
was at the place, he said unto
them. Pray that ye enter not
into temptation. And he was
withdrawn from them about a
stone's cast, and kneeled down,
and prayed, saying, Father, if
thou be willing, remove this cup
from me : nevertheless not my
will, but thine, be done. And
there appeared an angel unto
him from heaven, strengthening
him. And being in an agony,
he prayed more earnestly : and
his sweat was as it were great
drops of blood falling down to
the ground. And when he rose
up from prayer, and was come
to his disciples, he found them
sleeping for sorrow, and said
unto them. Why sleep ye ? rise
and pray, lest ye enter into
temptation. And while he yet
spake behold a multitude, and

they who were about him saw
what would follow, they said
unto him, Lord, shall we smite
with the sword ? And one of
them smote the servant of the
high priest, and cut off his right
ear. And Jesus answered and
said. Suffer \& thus far. And
he touched his ear, and healed
him. Then Jesus said unto the
chief priests, and captains of
the temple and the elders, who
were come to him. Be ye come
out, as against a thief, with
swords and staves ? When I
was daily with you in the temple,
ye stretched forth no hands
against me: but this is your
hour, and the power of darkness.
Then took they him, and led
him, and brought him into the
high priest's house. And Peter
followed afar off. And when
they had kindled a fire in tlfe
midst of the hall, and were set
down together, Peter sat down
among them. But a certain

said, Thou art also of them.
And Peter said, Man, I am not.
And about the space of one

affirmed, saying. Of a truth this
fellow also was with him ; for
he is a Galilean. And Peter
said, Man, I know not what

said unto them. If I tell you, yQ
will not believe: and if I also
ask you, ye will not answer me,
nor let me go. Hereafter shall
the Son of man sit on the right
hand of the power of God.
Then said they all. Art thou
then the Son of God ? And he
said unto them, Ye say that I
am. And they said, AVhat need

ourselves have heard of his own

The Epistle. 1 Cor. xi. 1 7.

IN this that I declare unto
you, I praise you not ; that
ye come together not for the
better, but for the worse. For
first of all, when ye come toge-
ther in the church, I hear that
there be divisions among you,
and I partly believe it. For
there must be also heresies
among you, that the}^ who ai'e
approved may be made manifest
among you. When ye come
together therefore into one
place, this is not to eat the
Lord's supper : for in eating
every one taketh before other
bis own supper ; and one is
bungr}', and another is drunken.
What, have ye not houses to
eat and to drink in.^ or de-
spise ye the church of God,
and shame them that have not ?
What shall I say to you ? shall
I praise you in this? I praise
you not. For I have received
of the Lord that which also I
delivered unto you. That the
Lord Jesus, the same night in
which he was betra3'ed, took
bread ; and when he had given
thanks, he brake it, and said.
Take, eat ; this is my body,
which is broken for you: this do
in remembrance of me. After
the same manner also he took
the cup, when he had supped,
saying. This cup is the new tes-
tament in my blood : this do ye,
as oft as ye drink it, in remem-
brance of me. For as often as
ye eat this bread, and drink
this cup, ye do shew the Lord's
death till he come. AVherefore,
whosoever shall eat this bread,
and drink this cup of the Lord,
unworthily, shall be guilty of
the bodv and blood of the Lord.

But let a man examine him-
self, and so let him eat of that
bread, and drink of that cup.
For he that eateth and drink-
eth unworthily eateth and
drinketh damnation to himself,
not discerning the Lord's body.
For this cause many are weak
and sickly among you, and many
sleep. For if we would judge
ourselves, we should not be
judged. But when we are
judged, we are chastened of the
Lord, that we should not be
condemned with the world.
Wherefore, my brethren, when
ye come together to eat, tarry
one for another. And if any
man hunger, let him eat at
home ; that ye come not toge-
ther unto condemnation. And
the rest will I set iu order when
I come.

The Gospel. St. Luke xxiii. 1.

THE whole multitude of
them arose, and led him
unto Pilate. And they began to
accuse him, saying, We found
this fellow perverting the na-
tion, and forbidding to give tri-
bute to Ca3sar, saying. That he
himself is Clirist a King. And
Pilate asked him, saying, Art
thou the King of the Jews ?
And he answered him, and said.
Thou sayest it. Tlien said Pi-
late to the cliief priests, and to
the people, I find no fault in
this man. And they were the

Agus an uair a ehunnaic Herod

I'anoid air, agus an deigh a sgead-

Pilat agus Herod 'nan càirdibh

out all Jewry, beginning from
Galilee to this place. When Pi-
late heard of Galilee, he asked
whether the man were a Gali-
lean. And as soon as he knew
that he belonged unto Herod's
jurisdiction, he sent him to He-
rod, who himself was also at
Jerusalem at that time. And
when Herod saw Jesus he was
exceeding glad ; for he was de-
sirous to see him of a long
season, because he had heard
many things of him ; and he
hoped to have seen some mi-
racle done by him. Then he
questioned with him in many
words ; but he answered him
nothing. And the chief priests
and scribes stood and vehe-
mently accused him. And He-
rod with his men of war se*t him
at nought, and mocked him,
and arrayed him in a gorgeous
robe, and sent him again to Pi-
late. And the same day Pilate
and Herod were made friends
together; for before they were
at enmity between themselves.
And Pilate, when he had called
together the chief priests, and
the rulers, and the people, said
unto them, Ye have brought
this man unto me, as one that
perverteth the people : and be-
hold, I, having examined him
before you, have found no fault
in this man touching those
things whereof ye accuse him :
No, nor yet Herod : for I sent
you to him ; and lo, nothing
worthy of death is done unto
him. I will therefore chastise
him, and release him. For of
necessity he must release one
unto them at the feast. And
they cried out all at once, say-
ing. Away with this man, and

Then said Jesus, Father, for-

the people stood beholding ; and

he be Christ, the chosen of God.
And the soldiers also mocked

we are sanctified, through the

Christ once for all. And every

after he had offered one sacri-

on the right hand of God ; from
henceforth expecting till his
enemies be made his footstool.
For by one offering he hath
perfected for ever them that are

For after that he had said be-

more offering for sin. Having

PILATE therefore took Je-
sus, and scourged him. And
the soldiers platted a crown ot
thorns, and put it on his head,
and they put on him a purplr-
robe, and said. Hail, King of
the Jews ! and the}' smote him
with their hands. Pilate there-
fore went forth again, and saith
unto them. Behold, I bring
him forth to you, that ye may
know that I find no fault in
him. Then came Jesus forth,
wearing the crown of thorns,
and the purple robe. And Pi-
late saith unto them, Behold the
man ! When the chief priests
therefore and oflScers saw him.

iad, ag radh, Ceiis e, ceus e. A
deir Pilat riu, Gabhaibhse e, agus
ceusaibli è : oir clia 'n 'eil mise
faotainn coire satn bith ann.
Fhreagair na h-Iudhaich e, Tha
lagh againne, agus a reir ar
lagha-ne is coir a chur gu bàs,
air son gu'n d'rinn e Mac Dbe
dheth tein. Uime sin an uair a
cbuala Pilat a cbainnt sin, bu
mhoide bha dh' eagal air ; agus
cliaidh e steach a ris a dh' ait a'
bhreitlieanais, agus a deir e ri
h-Iosa, Cia as duit ? Ach cha d'
thug losa freagradh air. An sin
thubhairt Pilat ris, Nach labbair

gu'm bheil cumhachd agam-sa
do cheusadh, agus gu'm bheil
cumhachd agani do chur fa

a' m' aghaidhse, mur d' thugta
dhuit o'n àird e : air an aobhar
sin an tia thug mise thairis dhuit,
tha aige-san am peacadh a's mo.
Agus o sin suas dh' iarr Pilat a
chuir fa sgaoil ; ach ghlaodh na
h-Iudhaich, ag radh, Ma leigeas
tu am fear so fa sgaoil; cha
charaid thu do Cheasar : ge b'e
neach ata 'gadheanamh fein 'na
righ, tha e a' labhairt an aghaidh
Cheasair. Uime sin an uair a

e mach losa, agus shuidh e air a'

they cried out, saying. Crucify
him, crucily him, Pilate saith
unto them, Take ye him, and
crucifj' him : for I find no fault
in hiui. The Jews answered
him. We have a hiw, and by
our law he ought to die, be-
cause he made himself the Son
of God. When Pilate therefore
heard that saying, he was the
more afraid ; and went again
into the judgement-hall, and
saith unto Jesus, Whence art
thou ? But Jesus gave him no
answer. Then saith Pilate un-
to him, Speakest thou not unto
me P knowest thou not that I
have power to crucify thee, and
have power to release thee ?
Jesus answered. Thou couldest
have no power at all against
me, except it were given thee
from above : therefore he that
delivered me unto thee hath the
greater sin. And from thence-
forth Pilate sought to release
him : but the Jews cried out,
saying. If thou let this man go,
thou art not Caesar's friend :
whosoever maketh himself a
king speaketh against Cajsar.
When Pilate therefore heard
that saying, he brought Jesus
forth, and sat down in the
judgement-seat, in a place that
is called the Pavement, but in
the Hebrew, Gabbatha. And
it was the preparation of the
passover, and about the sixth
hour : and he saith unto the
Jews, Behold your King ! But
they cried out, Awa}' with him,
away with him, crucify him.
Pilate saith unto them, Shall I
crucify your King ? The chief
priests answered. We have no
king but Ca?sar. Then deliver-
ed he him therefore unto them
to be crucified : and they took
Jesus, and led him away. And

he, bearing his cross, went forth
into a place called the place of
a scull, which is called in the
Hebrew, Golgotha : where they
crucified him, and two other
with him, on either side one,
and Jesus in the midst. And
Pilate wrote a title, and put it
on the cross ; and the writing
was, JESUS OF NAZARETH
THE KING OF THE JEWS.
This title then read man}' of
the Jews : for the place where
Jesus was crucified was nigh
to the city : and it was written
in Hebrew, and Greek, and La-
I tin. Then said the chief priests
i of the Jews to Pilate, Write
not, The King of the Jews ; but
that he said, 1 am the King of
the Jews. Pilate answered,
What 1 have written, 1 have
written. Then the soldiers,
when they had crucified Jesus,
took his garments, and made
four parts, to every soldier a
part ; and also his coat : now
the coat was without seam,
woven from the top through-
out. The}' said therefore among
themselves. Let us not rend it,
but cast lots for it, whose it
shall be : that the Scripture
might be fulfilled, which saith.
They parted my raiment among
them, and for my vesture they
did cast lots. These things
therefore the soldiers did. Now
there stood by the cross of Je-
sus, his mother, and his mo-
ther's sister, I\Iary the wife of
Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.
When Jesus therefore saw his
mother, and the disciple stand-
ing by, whom he loved, he
saith unto his mother, Woman,
behold th}^ son. Then saith
he to the disciple. Behold thy
mother. And from that hour

own bome. After this, Jesus,
knowing tbat all tbings were
now accomplished, tbat tbe
Scripture migbt be fulfilled,
saith, I tbirst. Now there was
set a vessel full of vinegar : and
thej filled a spunge with vine-
gar, and put it upon hyssop,
and put it to bis mouth. When
Jesus therefore bad received the
vinegar, be said, It is finished :
and he bowed his head, and
gave up the ghost. The Jews
therefore, because it was the
preparation, that the bodies
should not remain upon the
cross on the sabbath-day, (for
that sabbath-day was an high
day,) besought Pilate thfit
their legs might be broken,
and tbat they might be taken
away. Then came the soldiers,
and brake the legs of tbe
first, and of the other which
was crucified with him. But
when they came to Jesus, and
saw that he was dead already,
they brake not his legs : but
one of the soldiers with a spear
pierced his side, and forthwith
came thereout blood and wa-
ter. And be that saw it bare
record, and his record is true ;
and be knoweth that be saith
true, that ye might believe.
For these things were done,
that the Scripture should be
fulfilled, A bone of him shall
not be broken. And again
another Scripture saith, They
shall look on him whom t^iey
piei'ced.

WHEX the even was come,
there came a rich man
of Arimathsea, named Joseph,
who also himself was Jesus'
disciple : he went to Pilate,
and begged the bod}-- of Jesus.
Then Pilate commanded the
body to be delivered. And
when Joseph had taken the
bodj^ he wrapped it in a clean
linen cloth, and laid it in his
own new tomb, which he had
hewn out in the rock : and he
rolled a great stone to the door
of the sepulchre, and departed.
And there was Mary Magda-
lene, and the other Mar}^ sit-
ting over against the sepulchre.
Xow the next day, that follow-
ed the day of the preparation,
the chief priests and Pharisees
came together unto Pilate,
saying, Sir, we remember that
that deceiver said, while he was
yet alive, After three days I
will rise again. Command
therefore that the sepulchre be
made sure until the third day,
lest his disciples come by night
and steal him away, and say
unto the people, He is risen
from the dead : so the last error
shall be worse than the first.
Pilate said unto them. Ye have
a watch ; go your way, make
it as sure as ye can. So they
went, and made the sepulchre
sure, sealing the stone, and
setting a watch.

CHRIST, being raised from
the dead, dieth no more :
death hath no more dominion
over him.

For in that he died, he died
unto sin once : but in that he
liveth, he liveth unto God.

Likewise reckon ye also
yourselves to be dead indeed
unto sin : but alive unto God
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Rom. vi. 9.

CHRIST is risen from the
dead : and become the
tirst-fruits of them that slept.

For since by man came death :
by man came also the resurrec-

For as in Adam all die : even
so in Christ shall all be made

wbicb was published throughout

lilee, after the baptism which
Jobn preached : how God
anointed Jesus of Nazareth with
the Holy Ghost and with power ;
who went about doing good,
and healing all that were op-
pressed of the devil : for God
was with him. And we are
witnesses of all things which he
did, both in the land of the
Jews, and in Jerusalem ; whom
they slew and banged on a tree:
Him God raised up the third
day, and shewed him openly ;
not to all the people, but unto
witnesses chosen before of God,
even to us, who did eat and
drink with him after he rose
from the dead. And he com-
manded us to preach unto the
people, and to testify that it is
he who was ordained of God
to be tbe Judge of quick and
dead. To him gave all tbe
prophets witness, that through
his name whosoever believeth
in him shall receive remission
of sins.

people : And how the chief

death, and have crucified him.
But we trusted that it had

all this, to-day is the third
day since these things were
done. Yea, and certain wo-
men also of our company made
us astonished, which were
early at the sepulchre ; and
when they found not his body,
they came, saying, that they
had also seen a vision of an-
gels, which said that he was
alive. And certain of them
which were with us went to
the sepulchre, and found it
even so as the women had
said ; but him they saw not.
Then said he unto them, 0

For the Epklle. Acts xiii. 26.

MEN and brethren, children
of the stock of Abraham,
and whosoever among you fear-
eth God, to 3'ou is the word of
this salvation sent. For they
that dwell at Jerusalem, and
their rulers, because they knew
him not, nor yet the voices of
the prophets which are read
every sabbath-day, they have
fulfilled them in condemning
him. And though they found
no cause of death in him, yet
desired they Pilate that he
should be slain. And when
they had fulfilled all that was
written of him, they took him
down from the tree, and laid
him in a sepulchre. But God
raised him from the dead : and
he was seen many days of them
which came up with him from
Galilee to Jerusalem, who are
his witnesses unto the people.
And we declare unto you glad
tidings, how that the promise
which was made unto the fa-
thers, God hath fulfilled the
same unto us their children, in
that be bath raised up Jesus
again ; as it is also written in
the second Psalm, Thou art my
Son, this day have I begotten
thee. And as concerning that
he raised him up from the dead,
now no more to return to cor-
ruption, be said on this wise, I
will give 3'ou the sure mercies
of David. Wherefore he saith
also in another Psalm, Thou
shall not suffer thine Holy One
to see corruption. For David,
after he had served bis own ge-
neration b}' the will of God, fell
on sleep, and was laid unto his
fathers, and saw corruption :

But be whom God raised again
saw no corruption. Be it
known unto you therefore, men
and brethren, tbat through this
man is preached unto you the
forgiveness of sins : and by him
all that believe are justified
from all things, from which ye
could not be justified by the law
of Moses. Beware therefore,
lest that come upon you which
is spoken of in the prophets ;
Behold, ye despisers, and won-
der, and perish : for I work a
work in your days, a work
which ye shall in no wise be-
lieve, though a man declare it
unto you.

The Gospel. St. Luke xxiv. 36.

JESUS himself stood in the
midst of them, and saith
unto them, Peace be unto you.
But they were terrified and
affrighted, and supposed that
they had seen a spirit. And he
said unto them. Why are ye
troubled, and why do thoughts
arise in your hearts ? Behold
my hands and my feet, that it
is I myself: handle me, and
see ; for a spirit hath not fiesh
and bones, as 3'e see me have.
And when he had thus spoken,
he shewed tbem his hands and
his feet. And while they yet
believed not for jo}', and won-
dered, be said unto them, Have
ye here any meat? And they
gave him a piece of a broiled
fisb, and of an honey-comb.
And be took it, and did eat be-

which I spake unto you, while
I was 3'et with you, that all
things must be fulfilled which

glad when they saw tbe Lord.
Then said Jesus to them again,
Peace be unto you : As my

send I you. And when he
bad said this, he breathed on

JESUS said, I am the good
shepherd: the good shep-
herd giveth his life for the
sheep. But he that is an hire-
ling, and not the shepherd,
whose own the sheep are not,
seeth the wolf coming, and
leaveth the sheep, and fleeth :
and the wolf catcheth them,
and scattereth the sheep. The
hireling fleeth, because he is
an hireling, and careth not
for the sheep. I am the good
shepherd, and know my sheep,
aud am known of mine. As
the Father knoweth me, even
so know I the Father: and
I lay down my life for the^

they shall hear my voice; and

Gentiles ; that, whereas they
speak against you as evil doers,
they may by your good works,

every ordinance of man for the
Lord's sake : whether it be to
the King, as supreme ; or unto
governours, as unto them that
are sent by hiin for the punish-
ment of evil doers, and for the

no variableness, neither shadow

brethren, let every man be
swift to hear, slow to speak,
slow to wrath : for the wrath

And suddenly there came a

sitting. And there appeared
unto them cloven tongues like
as of fire, and it sat upon each of
them : and they were all filled
with the Holy Ghost, and began
to speak with other tongues, as
the Spirit gave them utterance.
And there were dwelling at
Jerusalem Jews, devout men,
out of every nation under
heaven. Now when this was
noised abroad, the multitude
came together, and were con-
founded, because that every
man heard them speak in his

The Gospel. St. John xiv. 15.

JESUS said unto bis disciples,
If 3'e love me, keep my com-
mandments. And I will pray
tbe Fatber, and be sball give
you another Comforter, that he
may abide with you for ever;
even tbe Spirit of truth ; whom
the world cannot receive, be-
cause it seeth him not, neither
knoweth him: but ye know him ;
for he dwelletb with \o^, and
shall be in you. I will not leave
you comfortless : I will come to
you. Yet a little while, and tbe
world seeth me no more ; but
ye see me : because I live, ye
shall live also. At that day ye
shall know that I am in my Fa-
ther, and ye in me, and I in
you. He that hath my com-
mandments, and keepeth them,
he it is that loveth me : and he
that loveth me shall be loved of
my Father ; and I will love him,
and will manifest myself to him.
Judas saith unto him (not Isca-
riot,) Lord, bow is it that thou
wilt manifest thyself unto us,
and not unto the world? Jesus
answered and said unto him, If
a man love me, he will keep my
words : and my Father will love
him, and we will come unto him,
and make our abode with him.
He that loveth me not keepeth
not my sayings : and the word
which ye hear, is not mine, but
the Father's which sent me.
These things have I spoken unto
you, being 3'et present with you.

I perceive that God is no re-
specter of persons ; but in every
nation he that feareth him, and
worketh righteousness, is ac-
cepted with him. The Word
which God sent unto the chil-
dren of Israel, preaching peace
by Jesus Christ ; (he is Lord
of all ;) that Word, I say, ye
know, which was published
throughout all Judgsa, and be-
gan from GaliLe, after the bap-
tism which John preached : how
God anointed Jesus of Naza-
reth with the Holy Ghost, and
with power; who went about
doing good, and healing all
that were oppressed of the de-
\'il : for God Avas with him.
And we are witnesses of all
things which he did, both in
the land of the Jews, and in
Jerusalem ; whom they slew,
and hanged on a tree : Him
God raised up the third day,
and shewed him openly; not
to all the people, but unto wit-
nesses chosen before of God ;
even to us who did eat and
drink with him after he rose
from the dead. And he com-
manded us to preach unto the
people, and to testify that it
is he which was ordained of
God to be the Judge of quick
and dead. To him give all the
prophets witness, that through
his Name whosoever believeth
in him shall receive remission

rainbow round about the throne,
in sight like unto an emerald.
And round about the throne
were four and twenty seats ; and
upon the seats I saw four and
twenty elders sitting, clothed in
white raiment ; and they had on
their heads crowns of gold. And
out of the throne proceeded
lightnings and thunderings and
voices : and there were seven
lamps of fire burning before the
throne, which are the seven
Spirits of God. And before the
throne there was a sea of glass
like unto ciystal: and in the

was like a lion, and the second

was, and is, and is to come.

The Gospel. St. John iii. 1.

THERE was a man of the
Pharisees, named Nicode-
mus, a ruler of the Jews : the
same came to Jesus by night,
and said unto him, Rabbi, we
know that thou art a teacher
come from God : for no man can
do these miracles that thou doest,
except God be with him. Jesus
answered and said unto him.
Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again, he
cannot see the kingdom of God.
Xicodemus saith unto him, How
can a man be born when he is
old? can he enter the second
time into his mother's womb,
and be born ? Jesus answered,
Veril}^, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water
and of the Spirit, he cannot
enter into the kingdom of God.
That Avhich is born of the flesh
is flesh ; and that which is born
of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel
not that I said unto thee. Ye
must be born again. The wind
bloweth where it listeth. and
thou hearest the sound thereof,

The Epistle. 1 St. John i v. 7.

BELOVED, let us love one
another : for love is of God ;
and every one that loveth is
born of God, and knoweth God.
He that loveth not, knoweth
not God ; for God is love. In
this was manifested the love of
God toward us, because that
God sent his only-begotten Son
into the world, that we might
live through him. Herein is
love, not that we loved God,
but that he loved us, and seni:
his Son to be the propitiation
for our sins. Beloved, if God
so loved us, we ought also to
love one another. No one hath
seen God at any time. If we
love one another, God dwelleth
in us, and his love is perfected
in us. Hereby know we that
we dwell in him, and he in us,
because he hath given us of his
Spirit. And we have seen, and
do testify, that the Father sent
the Son to be the Saviour of the
world. Whosoever shall confess
that Jesus is the Son of God,
God dwelleth in him, and he in
God. And we have known and
believed the love that God hath
to us. God is love ; and he
that dwelleth in love dwelleth in
God. and God in him. Herein
is oar love made perfect, that
we may have boldness in the
day of judgement : because as
he is, so are we in this world.
There is no fear in love ; but
perfect love casteth out fear;
because fear hath torment. He
that feareth, is not made perfect

The Gospel. St. Luke xvi 19.

THERE was a certain rich
man, which was clothed
in purple and fine linen, and
fared sumptuously ever}^ day :
and there was a certain beggar
named Lazarus, which was laid
at his gate, full of sores, and
desiring to be fed with the
crumbs which fell from the rich
man's table : moreover, the dogs
came and licked his sores. And
it came to pass, that the beggar
died, and was carried by the
angels into Abraham's bosom :
the rich man also died, and was
buried ; and in hell he lifted up
his eyes, being in torments, and
seeth Abraham afar olf, and La-
zarus in his bosom. And he cried
and said, Father Abraham, have
mercy on me, and send Laza-
rus, that he may dip the tip of
his finger in water, and cool my
tongue ; for I am tormented in
this flame. But Abraham said,

MARVEL not, my bre-

you. We know that we have
passed from death unto life,
j because we love the brethren.
He that loveth not his brother
abideth in death. Whosoever
hateth his brother is a mur-
derer: and 3'e know that no
murderer hath eternal lite abid-

I the love of God, because he
laid down his life for us : and
we ought to lay down our lives
for the brethren. But whoso
hath this world's good, and
seeth his brother have need,
and shutteth up his bowels of
compassion from him, how
dwelleth the love of God in
him ? My little children, let
us not love in word, neither
in tongue ; but in deed and
in truth. And hereby we know
that we are of the truth, and
shall assure our hearts before
him. For if our heart con-
demn us, God is greater than
our heart, and knoweth all
things. Beloved, if our heart
condemn us not, then have we
confidence toward God. And
whatsoever we ask, we receive
of him, because we keep his
commandments, and do those
things that are pleasing in his
sight. And this is his com-
mandment. That we should be-

A CERTAIN man made a

many ; and sent his servant at
supper-time to say to them that
were bidden. Come, for all things
are now ready. And they all
with one consent began to make
excuse. The first said unto
him, I have bought a piece of
ground, and I must needs go
and see it ; I pray thee have
me excused. And another said,
I kave bought five yoke of oxen,
and I go to prove them ; I pra}"-
thee have me excused. And
another said, I have married a
wife, and therefore I cannot
come. So that servant came,
and shewed his lord these things.
Then the master of the house
being angry said to his ser-
vant. Go out quickly into the
streets and lanes of the city,
and bring in hither the poor,
and the maimed, and the halt,
and the blind. And the ser-
vant said, Lord, it is done as
thou hast commanded, and yet
there is room. And the lord
said unto the servant, Go out
into the high-ways and hedges,
and compel them to come in,
that my house may be filled.
For I say unto you. That none
of those men which were bidden
shall taste of m}' supper.

THEX drew near unto bim

Pharisees and Scribes murmur-
ed, saying, This man receivetb
sinners, and eateth with them.
And be spake this parable unto
them, saying. What man of
you having an hundred sheep,
if be lose one of them, doth
not leave the ninety and nine
in the wilderness, and go after
that which is lost, until be find
it ? And when he bath found
it, he layetb it on his shoulders,
rejoicing. And when be Com-
eth home, he calleth together
bis friends and neighbours, say-
ing unto them, Eejoice with
me, for I have found my sheep
which was lost. I say unto
you. That likewise joy shall
be in heaven over one sinner
that repenteth, more than over
ninety and nine just persons,
which need no repentance. Ei-
ther what woman having ten
pieces of silver, if she lose one
piece, doth not light a candle,
and sweep the house, and seek
diligently till she find it ? And
when she hath found it, she
calleth her friends and her
neighbours together, saying,
Rejoice with me, for I have
found the piece which I had
lost. Likewise, I say unto you,
There is joy in the presence of
the angels of God over one sin-
ner that repenteth.

who hath subjected the same in

who is he that will harm you,
if ye be followers of that which

KNOW ye not, that so

baptized into his death ? There-
fore we are buried with him by
baptism into death ; that like
as Chi'ist was raised up from
the dead by the glory of the
Father, even so we also should
walk in newness of life. For
if we have been planted to-
gether in the likeness of his
death, we shall be also in the
likeness of his resurrection :
knowing this, that our old man
is crucified with him, that the
body of sin might be destroyed,
that henceforth we should not
serve sin. For he that is dead
is freed from sin. Xow if we
be dead with Christ, we be-
lieve that we shall also live
with him: knowing that Christ,
being raised from the dead,
dieth no more ; death hath no
more dominion over him. For

ing nothing to eat, Jesus called
his disciples unto him, and saith
unto them, I have compassion
on the multitude, because they
have now been with me three
days, and have nothing to eat :
and if I send them away fasting
to their own houses, they will
faint by the way : for divers of
them came from far. And his
disciples answered him, From
whence can a man satisfy these
men . with bread here in the
wilderness ? And he asked
them, How many loaves have
ye? And they said. Seven.
And he commanded the people
to sit down on the ground:
and he took the seven loaves,
and gave thanks, and brake,
and gave to his disciples to
set before them; and they did
set them before the people.
And they had a few small
fishes : and he blessed, and

BRETHREN, we are debt-

after the flesh. For if ye live
after the flesh, ye shall die ;
but if ye through the Spirit
do mortify the deeds of the
body, ye shall live. For as
many as are led by the Spirit
of God, they are the sons of
God. For ye have not received
the spirit of bondage again to
fear ; but ye have received the
spirit of adoption, whereb}'' we
cry, Abba, Father. The Spi-
rit itself beareth witness with
our spirit, that we are the chil-
dren of God : and if children,
then heirs ; heirs of God, and
joint-heirs with Christ : if so
be that we suffer with him,
that we may be also glorified
together.

The people sat down to eat and

with the temptation also make

And he called him, and said
unto him, How is it that I hear
this of thee? give an account of
thy stewardship ; for thou mayest
be no longer steward. Then
the steward said within himself.
What shall I do, for my lord
taketh away from me the
stewardship : I cannot dig ; to
beg I am ashamed. 1 am re-
solved what to do, that, when I
am put out of the stewardship,
they may receive me into their

of his lord's debtors unto him,
and said unto the first. How
much owest thou unto my lord?
And he said, An hundred
measures of oil. And he said
unto him, Take thy bill, and sit
down quickly, and write fifty.
Then said he to another, And
how much owest thou ? And
he said. An hundred measures
of wheat. And he said unto
him. Take thy bill, and write
fourscore. And the lord com-
mended the unjust steward, be-
cause he had done wisely : for
the children of this world are in
their generation wiser than the

C0NCEENING spiritual
gifts, brethren, I would
not have you ignorant. Ye know-
that ye were Gentiles, earned
away unto these dumb idols,
even as ye were led. Where-
fore I give you to understand,
that no man speaking by the
Spirit of God calleth Jesus ac-
cursed ; and that no man can
say that Jesus is the Lord, but
by the Holy Ghost. Now there
are diversities of gifts, but the
same Spirit. And there are
differences of administrations,
but the same Lord. And there
are diversities of operations; but
it is the same God which worketh
all in all. But the manifestation
of the Spirit is given to every
man to profit withal. For to
one is given by the Spirit the
word of wisdom ; to another the
word of knowledge b}' the same
Spirit ; to another faith by the
same Spirit; to another the gifts
of healing by the same Spirit ;
to another the working of mi-
racles ; to another prophecy ; to
another discerning of spirits ; to
another divers kinds of tongues;
to another the interpretation of
tongues : But all these worketh
that one and the self-same
Spirit, dividing to every man
severally as he will.

je have received, and wherein

saved, if ye keep in memory
what I preached unto you, un-

For I delivered unto you first of
all that which I also received,
how that Christ died for our
sins according to the Scriptures ;
and that he was buried, and
that he rose again the third
day according to the Scriptures;
and that he was seen of Cephas,
then of the twelve : after that,
he was seen of above five hun-
dred brethren at once ; of whom
the greater part remain unto
this present, but some are fallen
asleep. After that, he was
seen of James ; then of all the
Apostles. And last of all he
was seen of me also, as of one
born out of due time. For I
am the least of the Apostles,
that am not meet to be called an

JESUS departing from the
coasts of Tyre and Sidon,
came unto the sea of Galilee,
through the midst of the coasts
of Decapolis. And they bring
unto him one that was deaf,
and had an impediment in his
speech ; and they beseech him
to put his hand upon him. And
he took him aside from the mul-
titude, and put his fingers into
his ears, and he spit, and touched
his tongue ; and looking up to
heaven, he sighed, and saith
unto him, Epliphatha, that is.
Be opened. And straightway
his ears were opened, and the
string of his tongue was loosed,
and he spake plain. And he
charged them that they should
tell no man : but the more he
charged them, so much the more
a great deal they published it ;
and were beyond measure asto-
nished, saying. He hath done
all things well : he maketh both
tlie deaf to hear, and the dumb
to speak.

YE see how large a letter I
have written unto you with
mine own hand. As many as
desire to make a fair shew in
the flesh, they constrain you to
be circumcised ; only lest they
should suffer persecution for the
cross of Christ. For neither
they themselves who are cir-
cumcised keep the law ; but de-
sire to have you circumcised,
that thev may glory in vour
flesh. But God forbid that I
should glory, save in the cross
of our Lord Jesus Christ, by
whom the world is crucified
unto me, and I unto the world.
For in Christ Jesus neither cir-
cumcision availeth any thing,
nor uncircumcision, but a new
creature. And as many as walk
according to this rule, peace be
on them, and mercy, and upon
the Israel of God. From hence-

when he came nigh to the gate

when the Lord saw her, he had

came and touched the bier, (and
they that bare him stood still,)
and he said, Young man, I say

was dead sat up, and began to
speak : and he delivered him to

bidden of him ; and he that
bade thee and him come and
say to thee, Give this man
place ; and thou begin with
shame to take the lowest room.
But when thou art bidden, go
and sit down in the lowest
room ; that, when he that bade
thee cometh, he may say unto
thee, Friend, go up higher :
then shalt thou have worship
in the presence of them that sit
at meat with thee. For who-
soever exalteth himself shall be
abased ; and he that humbleth
himself shall be exalted.

WHEN the Pharisees had
heard that Jesus had put
the Sadducees to silence, they
were gathered together. Then
one of them, who was a lawyer,
asked him a question, tempting
him, and saying. Master, which
is the great ctmimandment in
the Law ? Jesus said unto him,
Thou shalt love the Lord thy
God Avith all thy heart, and
with all thy soul, and with
all thy mind. This is the
first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto
it, Thou shalt love thy neigh-
bour as thyself. On these two
commandments hang all the
Law and the Prophets. While
the Pharisees were gathered to-
gether, Jesus asked them, say-
ing, What think ye of Christ r
whose son is he ? The^^ say
unto him, The son of David.
He saith unto them, How then
doth David in spirit call him
Lord, saying, The Lord said
unto my Lord, Sit thou on my
right hand, till I make thine
enemies th}^ footstool ? If David
then call him Lord, how is he
his Son ? And no man was able
to answer him a word ; neither

The Gospel St. Matt. xxii. 1.

JESUS said, The kingdom of
heaven is like unto a cer-
tain king, who made a marriage
for his son, and sent forth his
sei'vants to call them that were
bidden to the wedding : and
they would not come. Again,
he sent forth other servants,
saying, Tell them which are
I bidden, Behold, I have pre-
[ pared my dinner ; my oxen
land my fatlings are killed, and
I all things are ready : come unto
the marriage. But they made
light of it, and went their ways,
one to his farm, and another to
his merchandise : and the rem-
nant took his servants, and en-
treated them spitefully, and
slew them. But when the king
heard thereof, he was wroth :
and he sent forth his armies,
and destroyed those murderers,
and burned up their city. Then
saith he to his servants, The
wedding is ready, but they
who were bidden were not
worthy. Go ye therefore into
the highway, and as many as
ye shall find, bid to the mar-
riage. So those servants went
out into the highways, and ga-
thered together all, as many as
the}^ found, both bad a' id good :
and the wedding was furnished
with guests. And when the
king came in to see the guests,
he saw there a man which had
not on a wedding-garment : and
he sraith unto hiin, Friend, how
earnest thou in hither, not hav-
jing a wedding-garmeni ? And

THERE was a certain noble-
man, whose son was sick
at Capernaum. When he
heard that Jesus was come out
of Judea into Galilee, he went
unto him, and besought him
that he would come down, and
heal his son : for he Avas at the
point of death. Then said Je-
sus unto him. Except ye see
signs and wonders, ye will not
believe. The nobleman saith
unto him. Sir, come down ere
my child die. Jesus saith unto
him, Go thy way ; thy son liv-
eth. And the man believed the
word that Jesus had spoken un-
to him, and he went his way.
And as he was now going down,
his servants met him, and told
him, saying, Thy son liveth.
Then enquired he of them the

said within herself, If I may

him about ; and, when he saw
her, he said. Daughter, be of
good comfort ; thy faith hath
made thee whole. And the
woman was made whole from
that hour.) And when Jesus

eat ? (And this he said to prove
him ; for he himself knew what
he would do.) Philip answered
him, Two hundred penny-worth
of bread is not sufficient for
them, that every one of them
may take a little. One of his
disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's
brother, saith unto him, There
is a lad here, which hath five
barley-loaves, and two small
fishes ; but what are the}' among
so many ? And Jesus said, Make
the men sit down. Now there
was much grass in the place. So
the men sat down, in number
about five thousand. And Jesus
took the loaves, and, when he
had given thanks, he distributed
to the disciples, and the disci-
ples to them that were set down,
and likewise of the fishes, as
much as they would. AVhen
they were filled, he said unto
his disciples, Gather up the
fragments that remain, that no-
thing be lost. Therefore they
gathered them together, and
filled twelve baskets with the
fragments of the five barley-
loaves, which remained over
and above unto them that had
eaten. Then those men, when
they had seen the miracle that
Jesus did, said, This is of a

disciples were within, and Tho-
mas with them : then came Je«
sus, the doors being shut, and
stood in the midst, and said,
Peace be unto you. Then saith
he to Thomas, Eeach hither thy
finger, and behold my hands ;
and reach hither thy hand, and
thrust it into my side; and
be not faithless, but believing.
And Thomas answered and said
unto him, My Lord, and my
God. Jesus saith unto him,
Thomas, because thou hast seen
me, thou hast believed ; blessed
are they that have not seen, and
yet have believed. And many
other signs truly did Jesus in
the presence ot his disciples,
which are not written in this
book. But these are written,
that ye might believe that Jesus
is the Christ, the Son of God ;
and that believing ye might
have life through his Name.

OGOD, who, through the
preaching of the blessed
Apostle Saint Paul, hast caused
the light of the Gospel to shine
throughout the world ; Grant,
we beseech thee, that we, hav-
ing his wonderful conversion in
remembrance, may shew forth
our thankfulness unto thee for
the same, by following the ho-
ly doctrine which he taught ;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

if he found any of this way,
whether they were men or wo-
men, he might bring them
bound unto Jerusalem. And,
as he journeyed, he came near
Damascus, and suddenly there
shined round about him a light
from heaven. And he fell to
the earth, and heard a voice
saying unto him, Saul, Saul,
why persecutest thou me ? And
he said, Who art thou. Lord ?
And the Lord said, I am Jesus
whom thou persecutest: it is
hard for thee to kick against
the pricks. And he, trembling
and astonished, said. Lord, what
wilt thou have me to do ? And
the Lord said unto him, Arise,
and go into the city, and it
shall be told thee what thou
must do. And the men which
journeyed with him stood speech-
less, hearing a voice, but see-
ing no man. And Saul arose
from the earth, and when his
eyes were opened he saw no
man ; but they led him by the
hand, and brought him into
Damascus. And he was three
days without sight, and neither
did eat nor drink. And there
was a certain disciple at Da-
mascus, named Ananias, and
to him said the Lord in a vi-
sion, Ananias. And he said,
Behold, I am here, Lord. And
the Lord said unto him, Arise,
and go into the street which
is called Straight, and enquire
in the house of Judas for one
called Saul, of Tarsus : for be- '
hold, he prayeth, and hath seen !
in a vision a man nanied Ana- |

said, Is not this be that de-

this Name in Jerusalem, and

and confounded the Jews which

AND in the sixth month
the angel Gabriel was sent
from God unto a city of Galilee,
named Nazareth, to a Virgin
espoused to a man whose name
was Joseph, of the house of
David ; and the Virgin's name
was Mary. And the angel
came in unto her, and said,
Hail, thou that art highly fa-
voured, the Lord is with thee :
blessed art thou among women.
And when she saw him, she
was troubled at his saying, and
cast in her mind what manner
of salutation this should be.
And the angel said unto her.
Fear not, Mary ; for thou hast
found favour with God. And,
behold, thou shalt conceive in
thy womb, and bring forth a
son, and shalt call his name
JESUS. He shall be great,
and shall be called the Son of
the Highest : and the Lord God
shall give unto him the throne
of his father David : and he
shall reign over the house of
Jacob for ever; and of his
kingdom there shall be no end.
Then said Mar}' unto the angel,
How shall this be, seeing I
know not a man ? And the
angel answered and said unto
her, The Hoi}' Ghost shall come
upon thee, and the power of
the Highest shall overshadow
thee : therefore also that holy
thing which shall be born of
thee shall be called the Son of
God. And, behold, thy cousin
Elisabeth, she hath also con-
ceived a son in her old age :
and this is the sixth month with
her who was called barren.
For with God nothing shall be
impossible. And Mary said.
Behold the handmaid of the

TIDINGS of these things
came unto the ears of the
Church which was in Jerusalem :
and they sent forth Barnabas,
that he should go as far as
Antioch. Who, when he came,
and had seen the grace of God,
was glad, and exhorted them
all, that with purpose of heart
they would cleave unto the Lord.
For he was a good man, and full
of the Holy Ghost and of faith :
and much people was added unto
the Lord. Then departed Bar-
nabas to Tarsus, for to seek
Saul: and when he had found
him, he brought him unto An-
tioch. And it came to pass, that
a whole year they assembled
themselves with the Church, and
taught much people. And the
disciples were called Christians
first in Antioch. And in these
days came prophets from Jeru-
salem unto Antioch. And there
stood up one of them, named
Agabus, and signified by the
Spirit that there should be great
dearth throughout all the world :
which came to pass in the days
of Claudius Cesar, Then the
disciples, every man according
to his ability, determined to send
relief unto the brethren which
dwelt in Judea : which also they
did, and sent it to the elders
b}^ the hands of Barnabas and
Saul,

ELISABETH'S full time
came that she should be
delivered ; and she brought forth
a son. And her neighbours and
her cousins heard how the Lord
had shewed great mercy upon
her; and they rejoiced with her.
And it came to pass, that on the
eighth day they came to circum-
cise the child; and they called
him Zach arias, after the name
of his father. And his mother
answered and said, Not so ; but
he shall be called John. And
they said unto her, There is
none of thy kindred that is
called by this name. And they
made signs to his father, how
he would have him called. And
he asked for a writing-table, and
wrote, saying, His name is
John. And they marvelled all.
And his mouth was opened im-
mediately, and his tongue loosed,
and he spake, and praised God.
And fear came on all that dwelt
round about them : and all these
sayings were noised abroad
throughout all the hill-country
of Judea. And all they that
heard them laid them up in their
hearts, saying, What manner of
child shall this he? And the
hand of the Lord was with him.
And his father Zacharias was
filled with the Holy Ghost, and
prophesied, saying, Blessed be
the Lord God of Israel ; for he
hath visited and redeemed his
people, and hath raised up an
horn of salvation for us in the
house of his servant David ; as
he spake by the mouth of his
holy prophets, which have been
since the world began : that we
should be saved from our

A BOUT that time, Herod
i- A- the king stretched forth
his hands, to vex certain of the
Church. And he killed James
the brother of John with the
sword. And because he saw it
pleased the Jews, he proceeded
further to take Peter also. (Then
were the days of unleavened
bread.) And when he had appre-
hended him, he put him in pri-
son, and delivered him to four
quaternions of soldiers to keep
him ; intending after Easter to
bring him forth to the people.
Peter therefore was kept in pri-
son ; but prayer was made with-
out ceasing of the Church unto
God for him. And when Herod
would have brought him forth,
the same night Peter was sleep-
ing between two soldiers, bound
with two chains : and the
keepers before the door kept
the prison. And, behold, the
angel of the Lord came upon
him, and a light shined in the
prison : and he smote Peter on
the side, and raised him up,
saying, Arise up quickly. And
his chains fell off from his hands.
And the angel said unto him,
Gird thj'self, and bind on thy
sandals : and so he did. And
he saith unto him. Cast thy gar-
ment about thee, and follow me.
And he went out, and followed
him ; and wist not that it was true
which was done by the angel ;
but thought he saw a vision.
When they were past the first
and the second w^ard, they came
unto the iron gate that leadeth
unto the city, Avhich opened to
them of his own accord : and
they went out, and passed on
through one street ; and forth-
with the angel departed from
him. And when Peter was

And Simon Peter answered and
said, Thou art the Christ, the

hath not revealed it unto thee,
but my Father which is in hea-

That thou art Peter, and upon

part o/"Chap. xii.

IN those days came prophets
from Jerusalem unto An-
tioch. And there stood up one
of them, named Agabus, and
signified by the Spirit that there
should be great dearth through-
out all the world : which came
to pass in the days of Claudius
Cesar, Then the disciples,
every man according to his
ability, determined to send relief
unto the brethren which dwelt
in Judea : which also they did,
and sent it to the elders by the
hands of Barnabas and Saul.
Now about that time, Herod the
king stretched forth his hands, to
vex certain of the Church. And
he killed James the brother of
John with the sword. And be-
cause he saw it pleased the
Jews, he proceeded further to
take Peter also.

THEN came to him the mo-
ther of Zebedee's children
with her sons, worshipping him,
and desiring a certain thing of
him. And he said unto her,
What wilt thou ? She saith un-
to him. Grant that these my
two sons may sit, the one on
thy right hand, and the other
on the left, in thy kingdom.
But Jesus answered and said,

And wben the ten heard it, they
were moved with indignation
against the two brethren. But
Jesus called them unto him,
and said, Ye know that the
princes of the Gentiles exercise
dominion over them, and they
that are great exercise authority
upon them. But it shall not be
so among you: but whosoever
will be great among you, let

ful for me to write unto you,
and exbort you tbat ye sbould
earnestly contend for tbe faitb

tain men crept in unawares,
wbo were before of old or-
dained to tbis condemnation ;
ungodly men, turning tbe grace
of our God into lasciviousness,
and denying tbe only Lord God,
and our Lord Jesus Clirist.
I will therefore put you in re-
membrance, though ye once
knew tbis, how tbat the Lord,
having saved tbe people out of
the land of Egypt, afterward
destroyed them tbat believed
not. And tbe angels which kept
not their iirst estate, but left
their own habitation, be hath
reserved in everlasting chains
under darkness unto the judg-
ment of the great day. Even
as Sodom and Gomorrba, and
the cities about them in like
manner giving themselves over
to fornication, and going after
strange flesh, are set forth for
an example, suffering tbe venge-
ance of eternal fire. Likewise
also these filthy dreamers defile
tbe flesh, despise dominion, and
speak evil of dignities.

ye know that it hated me before
it hated j'ou. If 3'e were of the
world, the world would love his
own : but because ye are not of
the world, but I have chosen
you out of the world, therefore
the world hateth you. Remem-
ber the word that I said unto
you, The servant is not greater
than the lord: if they have
persecuted me, they will also
persecute you ; if they have
kept my saying, they will keep
yours also. But all these things
will they do unto you for my
Name's sake, because they know
not him that sent me. If I
had not come and spoken unto
them they had not had sin :
but now they have no cloke for
their sin. He that hateth me
hateth my Father also. If I
had not done among them the
works which none other man
did, they had not had sin : but
now have they both seen and
hated both me and m}^ Father.
But this cometh to pass, that
the word might be fulfilled that
is written in their law. They
hated me without a cause. But
when the Comforter is come,
whom I will send unto you from
the Father, even the Spirit of
truth, which proceedeth from
the Father, he shall testify of
me: and ye also shall bear vnt-
ness, because ye have been with

for ' the Celebration of the Holy
Communion, (which he shall always
do upon iii£ Sunday, or some Holy-
Day^ immediately preceding,) after
the Sermon or Homily ended, lie
shall read this Exhortation fol-
lowing.

DEARLY beloved, on
day, next, I purpose,
through God's assistance, to
administer to all such as shall
be religiously and devoutly dis-
posed, the most comfortable
Sacrament of the Body and
Blood of Christ ; to be by them
received, in remembrance of his
meritorious Cross and Passion ;
whereby alone we obtain re-
mission of our sins, and are
made partakers of the kingdom
of heaven. Wherefore it is our
duty to render most humble and
hearty thanks to Almighty God
our heavenly Father, for that
he hath given his Son our
Saviour Jesus Christ, not only
to die for us, but also to be our
spiritual food and sustenance in
that holy Sacrament. Which
being so divine and comfortable
a thing to them who receive it
worthily, and so dangerous to
them that will presume to re-
ceive it unworthily ; my duty is
to exhort you, in the mean
season to consider the dignity of
that holy mystery, and the great
peril of the unworthy receiving
thereof; and so to search and
examine your own consciences
(and that not lightly, and after
the manner of dissemblers with
God ; but so) that j'^e may come
holy and clean to such a heaven-
ly feast, in the marriage gar-
ment required by God in holy
Scripture, and be received a-j
worthy partakers of that holy
table.

The way and means thereto
is ; First, to examine jour lives
and conversations by the rule
of God's commandments ; and
whereinsoever ye shall perceive
yourselves to have offended,
either by will, word, or deed,
there to bewail your own sinful-
ness, and to confess yourselves
to Almighty God, with full pur-
pose of amendment of life. And
if ye shall perceive your offences
to be such as are not only
against God, but also against
your neighbours ; then ye shall
reconcile yourselves unto them,
being ready to make restitution
and satisfaction, according to
the uttermost of your powers,
for all injuries and wrongs done
by you to any other ; and being
likewise ready to forgive others
that have offended you, as ye
would have forgiveness of your
offences at God's band : for
otherwise the receiving of the
holy Communion doth nothing
else but increase your damna-
tion. Therefore if any of you
be a blasphemer of God, an
binderer or slanderer of his
Word, an adulterer, or be in
malice or envy, or in any other
grievous crime, repent you of
your sins, or else come not to
that holy table ; lest, after the
taking of that holy Sacrament,
the devil enter into you, as he
entered into Judas, and fill you
full of all iniquities, and bring
j-ou to destruction both of body
and soul.

Minister of God's Word, and

in such a case, would no*^^ be

I a great injury and wrong done

I dearly beloved in Christ, take
ye good heed, lest ye, with-
drawing yourselves from this
holy Supper, provoke God's in-
dignation against you. It is an
easy matter for a man to say, I
will not communicate, because
I am otherwise hindered with
worldly business. But such ex-
cuses are not so easily accepted
and allowed before God. If any
man say, I am a grievous sinner,
and therefore am afraid to come ;
wherefore then do ye not repent
and amend ? When God calleth
3'ou, are ye not ashamed to say,
ye will not come ? When 3'e
should return to God, will ye
excuse yourselves, and say, ye
are not ready ? Consider ear-
nestly with yourselves, how little
such feigned excuses will avail
before God. They that refused
the feast in the Gospel, because
they had bought a farm, or
would try their yokes of oxen,
or because they were married,
were not so excused, but
counted unworthy of the hea-
venly feast. I, for my part,
shall be ready; and according
to mine office, I bid you in the
name of God, I call you in
Christ's behalf, I exhort you,
as 3'e love your own salvation,
that ye will be partakers of this
holy Communion. And as the

Hear the words of the Gospel,
written by Saint Mark, in the
tenth Chapter, at the thir-
teenth Verse.
THEY brought j'oung chil-
dren to Christ, that he
should touch them ; and his
disciples rebuked those that
brought them. But when Jesus
saw it, he was much displeased,
and said unto them, Suffer the
little children to come unto
me, and forbid tbem not ; for
of such is the kingdom of God.
Verily I say unto you, Whoso-
ever sball not receive the king-
dom of God as a little child, he
sball not enter therein. And
he took them up in his arms,
put his hands upon tbem, and
blessed ihem.

H After the Gospel is read, the Mi-
nister shall make this brief Ex-
hortation upon the words of tfie

that our Lord Jesus Christ
would vouchsafe to receive liim,
to release him of his sins, to
sanctify him with the Holy
Ghost, to give liim the kingdom
of heaven and everlasting life.
Ye have heard also, that our
Lord Jesus Christ hath pro-
mised in his Gospel to grant
all these things that ye have
prayed for : which promise he,
I for his part, will most surely

I demand therefore,

Because some things essential
to this Sacrament may happen

THEY brought young chil-

should touch them ; and his
disciples rebuked those that
brought them. But when Jesus
saw it, he was much displeased,
and said unto them. Suffer
the little children to come
unto me, and forbid them not ;
for of such is the kingdom of
God. Verily I say unto \o\\.
Whosoever shall not receive the
kingdom of God as a little child,
he shall not enter therein. And
he took them up in his arms,
put his hands upon them, and
blessed them.

his outward gesture and deed
he declared his good will toward

same came to Jesus by night,
and said unto him, Rabbi, we
know that thou art a teacher

can do these miracles that thou
doest, except God be with him.

him. Verily, verily I say unto

dol a stigb an dara uair do
bhroinn a mhathar, agus a bhi air

deimhinn.deimhinndeireamriut,
mur bi duine air a bhreith o uisge

' unto thee, Except a man be

' he cannot enter into the king-
I dom of God. That which is

that which is born of the Spirit

Saint Peter tbe Apostle, wben
upon bis first preacbing of the
Gospel many were pricked at
tbe beart, and said to bim and
tbe rest of tbe Apostles, Men
and brethren, vvbat sball we do ?
replied and said unto tbem, Re-
pent, and be baptized every one
of you for tbe remission of sins,
and ye sball receiv^e tbe gift of
tbe Holy Ghost. For tbe pro-
mise is to you, and your chil-
dren, and to all that are afar ofP,
even as many as the Lord our
God sball call. And with many
other words exhorted he them,
saying, Save yourselves from
this untoward generation. For
(as the same Apostle testifieth
in another place) even Baptism
doth also now save us, (not the
putting away of the filth of tbe
flesh, but the answer of a good
conscience towards God,) by
the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Doubt ye not therefore, but
earnestly believe, that he will
favourably receive these present
2)ersons, truly repenting, and
coming unto him by faith ; that
he will grant them remission of
their sins, and bestow upon them
the Holy Ghost ; that be will
give them the blessing of eternal
life, and make them partahers of
his everlasting kingdom.

Wherefore we being thus per-
suaded of the good will of our
heavenly Father towards these
persons, declared by his Son Je-
sus Christ ; let us faithfully and

Question. What did your God-
fathers and Godmothers then for
you ?

Ansiver. They did promise

the sinful lusts of the flesh.
Secondly, that I should believe

in the same all the days of my

God, is to believe in him, to
fear him, and to love him with
all my heart, with all my mind,
with all my soul, and with all
my strength ; to worship him,
to give him thanks, to put my
whole trust in him, to call upon
him, to honour his holy Name
and his Word, and to serve him
truly all the days of my life.

Question. What is thy duty
towards thy Neighbour ?

Ansiver. My duty towards
my Neighbour, is to love him
as myself, and to do to all
men, as I would they should
do unto me : To love, honour,

ther : To honour and obey the
Queen, and all that are put in
authority under her : To sub-
mit myself to all my gover-
nors, teachers, spiritual pastors
and masters : To order m3'self
lowly and reverently to all my
betters : To hurt no body by
word nor deed : To be true
and just in all my dealing :

ing, and my tongue from evil-
speaking, lying, and slander-

it shall please God to call me.

CatecMst. My good Child,
know this, that thou art not
able to do these things of thy-
self, nor to walk in the Com-
mandments of God, and to
serve him, without his special
grace : which thou must learn
at all times to call for by dili-

them that trespass against us.
And lead us not into tempta-
tion ; But deliver us from evil.

TO the end that Confirma-
tion may be ministered to
the more edifying of such as
shall receive it, the Church hath
thought good to order, That
none hereafter shall be Con-
firmed, but such as can say the
Creed, the Lord's Prayer, and
the Ten Commandments ; and
can also answer to such other
Questions, as in the short Cate-
chism are contained : which or-
der is very convenient to be ob-
served; to the end, that chil-
dren, being now come to the
years of discretion, and having
learned what their Godfathers
and Godmothers promised for
them in Baptism, they may
themselves, with their own
mouth and consent, openly be-
fore the Church, ratify and con-
firm the same ; and also pro-
mise, that by the grace of God
they will evermore endeavour
themselves faithfully to observe
such things as the}^ by their

j brute beasts that have no un-

creetly, advisedly, soberly, and
in the fear of God; duly con-
sidering the causes for which
Matrimony was ordained.

First, It was ordained for the
procreation of children, to be
brought up in the fear and nur-
ture of the Lord, and to the
praise of bis bol}^ Xame.

Secondly, It was ordained for
remedy against sin, and to
avoid fornication ; that such per-
sons as have not the gift of con-
tinency might marry, and keep
themselves undefiled members
of Christ's body

Thirdly, It was ordained for
the mutual society, help, and
comfort, that the one ought to
have of the other, both in pros-
perity and adversity. Into
which holy estate these two
persons present come now to be
joined. Therefore if any man
can shew any just cause, why
they may not lawfully be joined
together, let bini now speak, or

ALL ye that are mamed, or

duty of husbands towards their
wives, and wives towards their
husbands.

St. Paul, in his Epistle to the
Ephesians, the fifth chapter,
doth give this commandment to
all married men ; Husbands,
love your wives, even as Christ
also loved the Church, and gave
himself for it ; that he might
sanctify and cleanse it with the
washing of w\ater, by the Word;
that he might present it to him-
self a glorious Church, not hav-
ing spot or wrinkle, or an}" such
thing ; but that it should be
holy, and without blemish. So
ought men to love their wives
as their own bodies. He that
loveth his wife, loveth himself:

they two shall be one flesh.
This is a great mj'stery : but I
speak concerning Christ and

Likewise the same Saint Paul,
writing to the Colossians, speak-

wives, and be not bitter against
them.

Hear also what Saint Pet^r,
the Apostle of Christ, who was

Ye husbands, dwell with your
wives according to knowledge;
giving honour unto the wife, as
unto the weaker vessel, and as

wife, even as Christ is the head
of the Church : and he is the
Saviour of the body. Therefore
as the Church is subject unto
Christ, so let the wives be to
their own husbands in every
thing. And again he saith. Let
the wife see that she reverence
her husband.

And in his Epistle to the
Colossians, Saint Paul giveth
you this short lesson ; Wives,
submit yourselves unto your
own husbands, as it is fit in the
Lord.

Saint Peter also doth instruct
you very well, thus saying; Ye
wives be in subjection to your
own husbands ; that if any obey
not the word, they also may
without the word be won by
the conversation of the wives ;
while they behold your chaste
conversation coupled with fear.
Whose adorning, let it not be
that outward adorning of plait-
ing the hair and of wearing of
gold, or of putting on of ap-
parel ; but let it be the hidden
man of the heart, in that which
is not corruptible ; even the or-
nament of a meek and quiet
spirit, which is in the sight of
God of great price. For after
this manner in the old time the
holy women also, who trusted
in God, adorned themselves,
being in subjection unto their
own husbands ; even as Sarah
obeyed Abraham, calling him
lord ; whose daughters ye are
as long as ye do well, and are
not afraid with any amaze-
ment.

your patience for the example
of others, and that your faith

Lord laudable, glorious, and
honourable, to the increase of
glory and endless felicity ; or

repent you of your sins, and
bear your sickness patiently,
trusting in God's mercy, for his

and render unto him humble
thanks for his I'atherly visitation,
submitting yourself wholly unto

TAKE tberefore in good part
the chastisement of the
Lord : For (as Saint Paul saith
in the twelfth Chapter to the
Hebrews) whom the Lord lov-
etb be chastenetb, andscourgeth
every son whom be receivetb.
If ye endure chastening, God
dealetb with you as with sons ;
for what son is he, whom the
father chastenetb not? But if ye
be without chastisement, where-
of all are partakers, then ye are
bastards, and not sons. Fur-
thermore, we have bad fathers
of our flesh, which corrected us,
and we gave them reverence :
shall we not much rather be in
subjection unto the Father of
spirits, and live ? For they
veril}' for a few days chastened
us after their own pleasure; but
be tor our profit, that we might
be partakers of his holiness.
These words, good brother, are
written in holy Scripture for our
comfort and instruction ; that
we should patientl}^ and with
thanksgiving, bear our heavenly
Father's correction, whensoever
by any manner of adversity it
shall please bis gracious good-
ness to visit us. And there
should be no greater comfort to
Christian persons, than to be
made like unto Christ, by suf-
fering patiently adversities,
troubles, and sicknesses. For

our way to eternal joy is to suf-

demning yourself for your own

Christ's sake, and not be ac-

Psalm Ixxi.

IN thee, O Lord, have I put
my trust; let me never be
put to confusion ; but rid me,
and deliver me in thy righteous-
ness ; incline thine ear unto me,
and save me.

Be thou my strong hold,
whereunto I may alway resort:
thou bast promised to help me ;
for thou art my house of de-
fence, and my castle.

Deliver me, O mj-- God, out
of the hand of the ungodly: out
of the hand of the unrighteous
and cruel man.

For thou, 0 Lord God, art the
thing that I long for : thou art
my hope, even from my youth.

Through thee have I been
holden up ever since I was born :
thou art be that took me out of
my mother's womb; my praise
shall alway be of thee.

I am become as it were a
monster unto many: but my
sure trust is in thee.

O let my mouth be filled with
thy praise: that I may sing of
thy glory and honour all the
day long.

I will keep my mouth as it
were with a bridle : while the
ungodly is in my sight.

I held my tongue, and spake
nothing : I kept silence, yea,
even from good words ; but it
was pain and grief to me.

My heart was hot within me,
and while I Avas thus musing,
the fire kindled : and at the last
I spake with my tongue ;

Lord, let me know mine end,
and the number of my days :
that I may be certified bow long
I have to live.

Behold, thou hast made my
days as it were a span long: and
mine age is even as nothing in
respect of thee ; and verily every
man living is altogether vanit}'.

For man walketb in a vain
shadow, and disquietetb himself
in vain : he heapeth up riches,
and cannot tell who shall gather
them.

And now. Lord, what is my
hope : truly my hope is even in
thee.

Deliver me from all mine
offences : and make me not a
rebuke unto the foolish.

I became dumb, and opened
not my mouth : for it was thy
doing.

Take tb y plague away from
me : I am even consumed by
means of thy heavy band.

When thou with rebukes dost
chasten man for sin, thou makest
his beauty to consume away,
like as it were a moth fretting a
garment : every man therefore
is but vanity.

Hear my pra5'^er, O Lord,
and with thine ears consider my
calling : hold not thy peace at
my tears.

As soon as thou scatterest
them, they are even as a sleep :
and fade away suddenly like the
grass.

In the morning it is green,
and groweth up : but in the
evening it is cut down, dried
up, and withered.

For we consume away in thy
displeasure: and are afraid at
thy wrathful indignation.

Thou hast set our misdeeds
before thee : and our secret sins
in the light of thy countenance.

For when thou art angry, all
our days are gone : we bring our
years to an end, as it were a

All flesh is not the same flesh ;
but there is one kind of flesh of
I men, another flesh of beasts,
! another of fishes, and another of
j birds. There are also celestial
j bodies, and bodies terrestrial ;
but the glory of the celestial is
one, and the glory of the terres-
j trial is another. There is one
glory of the sun, and another
I glory of the moon, and another
' glory of the stars ; for one star
diff"ereth from another star in
glory. So also is the resurrec-
tion of the dead : It is sown in
corruption ; it is raised in incor-
ruption : It is sownin dishonour;
it is raised in glory : it is sown
in weakness ; it is raised in
power : It is sown a natural
body : it is raised a spiritual body.
There is a natural body, and
there is a spiritual body. And
so it is written, The first man
Adam was made a living soul ;
the last Adam was made a
quickening spirit. Howbeit,
that was not first which is spi-
ritual, but that which is natural ;
and afterward that which is spi-
ritual. The first man is of the
earth, earthy : the second man
is the Lord from heaven. As is
the earthy, such are they that are
earthy : and as is the heavenly,
such are they also that are
heavenly. As we have borne
the iuiage of the earthy, we
shall also bear the image of
the heavenly. Now this I say,
brethren, that flesh and blood
cannot inherit the kingdom of
God; neither doth corruption
inherit incorruption. Behold, I

corruptible shall have put on in-
corruption, and this mortal shall
have put on immortality ; then
shall be brought to pass the
saying that is written. Death is
swallowed up in victory. 0
death, where is thy sting ? O
grave, where is thy victory ?
The sting of death is sin, and
the strength of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, which
giveth us the victory through
our Lord Jesus Christ. There-
fore, my beloved brethren, be
ye stedfast, unmoveable, always
abounding in the work of the
Lord, forasmuch as ye know
that your labour is not in vain
in the Lord.

I AM well pleased: that the
Lord hath heard the voice
of my prayer ;

That he hath inclined his ear
unto me : therefore will I call
upon him as long as I live.

The snares of death compassed
me round about : and the pains
of hell gat hold upon me.

I found trouble and heaviness,
and I called upon the Name of
the Lord : 0 Lord, I beseech
thee, deliver my soul.

Gracious is the Lord, and
righteous : yea, our God is
merciful.

The Lord preserveth the sim-
ple : I was in misery, and he
helped me.

Turn again then unto thy
rest, O my soul : for the Lord
hath rewarded thee.

And why ? thou hast delivered
my soul from death : mine

from falling.

Except the Lord keep the

It is but lost labour that ye
haste to rise up early, and so
late take rest, and eat the bread
of carefulness : for so he giveth
his beloved sleep.

Lo, children and the fruit of
the womb : are an heritage and
gift that Cometh of the Lord.

Like as the arrows in the

Psal. 1. Beatus vir, qui non oLiit, ^e.

BLESSED is the man that
bath not walked in the
counsel of the ungodly, nor
stood in the way of sinners :
and hath not sat in the seat of
the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the
law of the Lord : and in bis law
will he exercise himself day and
night.

3 And he shall be like a tree
planted by the water-side : that
will bring forth his fruit in due
season.

4 His leaf also shall not
wither: and look, whatsoever
he doeth, it shall prosper.

5 As for the ungodly, it is not
so with them : but they are
like the chaff, which the wind
scattereth away from the face of
the earth.

6 Therefore the ungodly shall
not be able to stand in the
judgement: neither the sinners
in the congregation of the righte-
ous.

7 But the Lord knoweth the
way of the righteous : and the
way of the ungodly shall perish.

Psalm ii. Quare fremucruiii gcntes 1

WHY do the heathen so
furiously rage together :
and why do the people imagine
a vain thing ?

2 The kings of the earth stand
up, and the rulers take counsel
together : against the Lord, and
against his Anointed.

3 Let us break their bonds
asunder : and cast away their
cords from us.

4 He that dwelleth in heaven
shall laugh them to scorn : the
Lord shall have them in de-
rision.

5 Then shall he speak unto
them in his wrath : and vex
them in his sore displeasure.

6 Yet have I set my King :
upon my holy hill of Sion.

7 I will preach the law,
whereof the Lord hath said
unto me : Tbou art my Son, this
day have I begotten thee.

8 Desire of me, and I shall
give thee the heathen for thine
inheritance : and the utmost
parts of the earth for thy pos-
session.

9 Thou shalt bruise them
with a rod of iron : and break
them in pieces like a potter's
vessel.

10 Be wise now therefore,
0 ye kings : be learned, 3'e that

11 Serve the Lord in fear:
and rejoice unto him with re-
verence.

Psalm xxi. Domine, in rirtute tua.

THE King shall rejoice in
thy strength, O Lord : ex-
ceeding glad shall he be of thy
salvation.

2 Thou hast given him his
heart's desire: and hast not
denied him the request of his
lips,

3 For thou shalt prevent him
with the blessings of goodness :
and shalt set a crown of pure
gold upon his head.

4 He asked life of thee, and
thou gavest him a long life :
even for ever and ever.

5 His honour is great in thy
salvation : glory and great wor-
ship shalt thou lay upon him.

6 For thou shalt give him
everlasting felicity : and make
him glad with the joy of thy
countenance.

7 And why ? because the
king putteth his trust in the
Lord : and in the mercy of the
Most Highest he shall not mis-
carry.

8 All thine enemies shall feel
th}' hand : thy right hand shall
find out them that hate thee.

9 Thou shalt make them like
a fiery oven in time of thy
wrath : the Lord shall destroy
them in his displeasure, and the
fire shall consume them.

10 Their fruit shalt thou root
out of the earth : and their seed

! from among the children of men.

6 I said, I will confess my
sins unto the Lord : and so
thou forgavest the wickedness

7 For this shall every one
that is godly make his prayer

therefore is but vanity.

the heathen with thy hand, and
planted them in : how thou hast
destroyed the nations, and cast

3 For they gat not the land
in possession through their own

arm that helped them ;

thine arm, and the light of thy
countenance : because thou hadst
a favour unto them.

5 Thou art my king, 0 God :
send help unto Jacob.

6 Through thee will we over-
throw our enemies : and in thy
Name will we tread them under,
that rise up against us.

7 For I will not trust in my
bow : it is not my sword that
shall help me ;

8 But it.is thou that savest us
from our enemies : and puttest
them to confusion that hate us.

9 We make our boast of God
all day long : and will praise
thy name for ever.

10 But now thou art far off,
and puttest us to confusion :
and goest not forth with our
armies.

11 Thou makest us to turn
our backs upon our enemies : so
that they, which hate us, spoil

Psalm xlviii. Magnus Dominus.

GREAT is the Lord, and
highly to be praised : in

2 The hill of Sion is a fair

earth : upon the north side lieth
the city of the great King ; God
is well known in her palaces as
a sure refuge.

3 For lo, the Kings of the
earth : are gathered, and gone
by together.

4 They marvelled to see such
things : they were astonished,
and suddenly cast down.

5 Fear came there upon
them, and sorrow : as upon a
woman in her travail.

6 Thou shalt break the ships
of the sea: through the east wind.

7 Like as we have heard, so
have we seen in the city of the
Lord of hosts ; in the city of our
God : God upholdeth the same
for ever.

8 We wait for thy loving-
kindness, 0 God : in the midst

9 O God, according to thy
Name, so is thy praise unto the

Psalm lii. Quid i/loriarisl

WHY boastest thou myself,
thou tyrant : that thou
canst do mischief;

2 Whereas the goodness of
God : endureth yet daily ?

3 Thy tongue imagineth wick-
edness : and with lies thou
cuttest like a sharp razor.

4 Thou hast loved unrighte-
ousness more than goodness :
and to talk of lies more than
righteousness.

5 Thou hast loved to speak
all words that may do hurt : O
thou false tongue !

6 Therefore shall God de-
stroy thee for ever : he shall
take thee, and pluck thee out of
thy dwelling, and root thee out
of the land of the living.

7 The righteous also shall see
this, and fear : and shall laugh
him to scorn.

8 Lo, this is the man that
took not God for his strengtJi :
but trusted unto the multitude
of his riches, and strengthened
himself in his wickedness.

9 As for me, I am like a green
olive-tree in the house of God :
my trust is in the tender mercy
of God for ever and ever.

10 I will always give thanks
unto thee for that thou hast
done : and I will hope in thy
Name: for thy saints like it
well.

Ps^aliu liii. Dixit insipiens.

THE foolish body hath said
in his heart : There is no
God.

2 Corrupt are they, and be-
come abominable in their wick-
edness : there is none that doeth
good.

3 God looked down from
heaven upon the children of
men : to see if there were any
that would understand, and
seek after God.

4 But they are all gone out
of the way, they are altogether
become abominable : there is
also none that doeth good, no,
not one.

5 Are not they without un-
derstanding, that work wicked-
ness : eating up my people as if
they would eat bread? they
have not called upon God.

6 They were afraid where no
fear was : for God hath broken
the bones of him tbat besieged
thee; thou hast put them to
confusion, because God hath
despised them.

7 Oh, that the salvation were
given unto Israel out ot Sion :
Oh, that the Lord would deliver
his people out of captivity !

8 Then should Jacob rejoice :
and Israel should be right glad.

SAVE me, O God, for thy

8 They corrupt other, and

Salm Ixxv. Confitehimur tibi.

DHUITSE, Ò Dhe, bheir

dhuitse bheir sinn buidheachas.

2 Mar an ceudna tha t-Ainm
a fogus ; agus ni sinn t-oibre
iongantach a chuir an ceiU.

3 'Nuair a gheibh mi an comh-
thional : bheir mi breth reir
ceartais.

4 Tha an talamh lag : agus a
luchd-aiteachaidh uile : tha mise
giulan a suas a phostaibh.

5 Thubhairt mi ris na h-amad-
ain na deanaibh gu caothuichte:
agus ris na h-aingidh, Natogaibh
a suas bhur n-adharc.

6 Na cuiribh a suas bhur
n-adharc gu h-ard : agus na
labhraibh gu rag-rahuinealach.

7 Oir cha 'n'eil onair ateachd
aon chuid bho'n aird an ear, no
bho'n aird an iar: no idir bho'n
airde deas.

8 Agus c'arson ? is e Dia am
breitheamh : cuiridh e sios a h-aon
agus togaidh e suas aon eile.

9 Oir ann an laimh an Tigh-
earna tha cupan. tha 'm fion ann
dearg: tha e Ian mhaisgte, agus
a dortadh a mach as.

10 Air son a dheasganaibh :
olaidh uile dhaoine aingidh na
talmhainn iad, agus ni iad an

11 Ach labhraidh mise mu
Dhia Jacob : agus molaidh mi e
gu brath.

12 Brisidh mi fos uile adh-
aircean an aingidh: agusbithidh
adhaircean an fhirean air an

Psalm Ixxv. Confiteinmicr tibi.

UNTO thee, Ò God, do we
give thanks : j'ea, unto thee
do we give thanks.

2 Thy Name also is so nigh :
and that do thy wondrous works
declare.

3 When I receive the con-
gregation : I shall judge accord-
ing unto right.

4 The earth is weak, and all
the inhabiters thereof : I bear
up the pillars of it.

5 I said unto the fools. Deal
not so madly : and to the un-
godly, Set not up your horn.

6 Set not up your horn on
high : and speak not with a stiff
neck.

7 For promotion cometh nei-
ther from the east, nor from the
west : nor from the south.

8 And why? God is the

1 Judge : he putteth down one,
and setteth up another.

! 9 For in the hand of the Lord
there is a cup, and the wine is
red : it is full mixed, and he
poureth out of the same.

10 As for the dregs thereof :
all the ungodly of the earth
shall drink them, and suck them
out.

11 But I will talk of the God
of Jacob : and praise him for
ever.

12 All the horns of the un-
godly also will I break : and the
horns of the righteous shall be
exalted.

up heavy displeasure against

gave them food from heaven.

50 He cast upon them the
furiousness of his wrath, anger,
displeasure, and trouble : and
sent evil angels among them.

51 He made a way to his in-
dignation, and spared not their
soul from death : but gave their
life over to the pestilence ;

52 And smote all the first-
born in Egypt : the most prin-
cipal and mightiest in the dwell-
ings of Ham.

53 But as for his own people,
he led them forth like sheep :
and carried tbem in the wilder-
ness like a flock.

54 He brought them out
safely, that they should not fear ;
and overwhelmed their enemies
with the sea ;

55 And brought them within
the borders of his sanctuary :
even to his mountain which he
purchased with his right hand.

56 He cast out the beatben
also before them : caused their
land to be divided among them
for an heritage, and made the
tribes of Israel to dwell in their
tents.

57 So they tempted, and dis-
pleased the most high God : and
kept not his testimonies ;

58 But turned their backs, and
fell away like their forefathers :
starting aside like a broken bow.

59 F(^r they grieved him with
their hill-altars : and provoked
him to displeasure with their

64 The fire consumed their

were not given to marriage.

67 He smote his enemies in

to a perpetual shame.

68 He refused the tabernacle

69 But chose the tribe of
Judah : even the hill of Sion,

70 And there he built his
temple on high : and laid the

71 He chose David also his

72 As he was following the

30 His seed also will I make
to endure for ever: and his
throne as the days of heaven.

31 But if his children forsake
my law : and walk not in my
judgments ;

32 If they break my statutes,
and keep not my command-
ments : I will visit their of-
fences with the rod, and their
sin with scourges.

33 Nevertheless, my loving-
kindness will I not utterly take

to fail.

34 My covenant will I not
break, nor alter the thing that
is gone out of my lips : I have
sworn once by my holiness, that
I will not fail David.

35 His seed shall endure for

36 He shall stand fast for

LOE.D, thou hast been our
refuge : from one genera-

2 Before the mountains were
brougut forth, or ever the earth
and the world were made : thou
art God from everlasting, and
world without end.

3 Thou turnest man to de-
struction : again thou sayest,
Come again, ye children of men.

4 For a thousand years in
thy sight are but as yesterday :
seeing that is past as a watch in
the night.

5 As soon as thou scatterest
them they are even as a sleep :
and fade away suddenly like
the grass.

6 In the morning it is green,
and groweth up : but in the
evening it is cut down, dried
up, and withered.

7 For we consume away in
thy displeasure : and are afraid
at th}' wrathful indignation.

8 Thou hast set our misdeeds
before thee : and our secret sins
in the light of thy countenance.

9 For when thou art angry
all our days are gone : we bring
our years to an end, as it were
a tale that is told.

10 The days of our age are
threescore j'^ears and ten ; and
though men be so strong that
they come to fourscore years :
yet is their strength then but
labour and sorrow; so soon
passeth it away, and we are
gone.

2 Let us come before his pre-

shew ourselves glad in him with
psalms.

3 For the Lord is a great
God : and a great King above

4 In his hand are all the

strength of the hills is his also.

5 The sea is his and he made

6 O come, let us worship and

Psalm cix. Deus laudain.

HOLD not thy tongue, 0

mouth of the ungodly, yea, the
mouth of the deceitful is opened
upon me.

2 And they have spoken
against me with false tongues :
they compassed me about also
with words of hatred, and fought
against me without a cause.

3 For the love that I had
unto them, lo, they now take
my contrary part : but I give
myself unto prayer.

4 Thus have they rewarded
me evil for good : and hatred
for my good will.

5 Set thou an ungodly man
to be ruler over him : and let
Satan stand at his right hand.

6 When sentence is given upon
him, let him be condemned : and
let his prayer be turned into sin.

7 Let his days he few : and
let another take his office.

8 Let his children be father-

persecuted the poor helpless
man, that he might slay him
that was vexed at the heart.

shall it be far from him.

17 He clothed himself with

and it shall come into his

4 Keep me, O Lord, from

The Confession.

ALMIGHTY God, Father of
our Lord Jesus Christ,
Maker of all things, Judge of all
men ; AVe acknowledge and be-
wail our manifold sins and wick-
edness, Which we, from time to
time, most grievously have com-
mitted, By thought, word, and
deed. Against thy Divine ^Ma-
jesty, Provoking most justly thy
wrath and indignatien against us.
We do earnestly repent. And are
heartily sorry for these our mis-
doings; The remembrance of
them is grievous unto us; The
burden of them is intolerable.
Have mercy upon us. Have
mercy upon us, most merciful
Father ; For thy Son our Lord
Jesus Christ's sak'^. Forgive us
all that is past ; And grant that
we may ever hereafter serve and
please thee In newness of life,
To the honour and glory of thy
Name ; Through Jesus Christ
our Lord. Amen.

^ Tlim shall the Priest, if there- he
any in tlie Ship, pronounce this Ab-
solution.

A L:\IIGHTY God, our hea-
venly Father, who of his
great mercy hath promised for-
giveness of sins to all them that
with hearty repentance and true
faith turn unto bim ; Have mercy
upon 3'ou ; pardon and deliver
you from all your sins ; confirm
and strengthen you in all good-
ness, and bring you to everlasting
life; through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.

Threoruich e iad amach air
an t-slighe cheart ; chum gu'n
reachadh iad dh'ionnsaidh a
bhaile 'sna ghabh iad comh-

O gu'n tugadh daoine moladh
do'n Tighearna air son a mhaith-

Oir tha e sasuchadh an anama

Thug e sios an cridheachan

agus cha robh aon neach a
dheanadh cobhair orra.

Mar sin 'nuair a ghlaodh iad
ris an Tighearna 'nan trioblaid :
dh'fhuasgail e orra as an teann-

Oir thug e iad a dorchadas,
agus a sgaile a bhais ; agus

He led them forth by the

O that men would therefore
praise the Lord for his goodness:
and declare the wonders that he
doeth for the children of men !

For he satisfieth the empty
soul : and filleth the hungry soul
with goodness.

Such as sit in darkness, and
in the shadow of death : being
fast bound in misery and iron ;

Because they rebelled against
the words of the Lord : and
lightly regarded the counsel of
the most Highest ;

He also brought down their
heart through heaviness : they
iell down, and there was none to
help them.

So when they cried unto the
Lord in their trouble : he de-
livered them out of their distress.

For he brought them out of

of death : and brake their bonds

That they would offer unto him
the sacrifice of thanksgiving;:
and tell out his works with glal-

They that go down to the sea
in ships : and occupy their busi-
ness in great waters ;

These men see the works of
the Lord : and his wonders in
the deep.

For at his word the stormy
wind ariseth : which ILfteth up
the waves therof.

They are carried np to the
heaven, and down ajain to the
deep : their soul melteth away
because of the trouble.

They reel to and fro, and stag-
ger like a drunken man : and
are at their wits' end.

So when they cry unto the
Lord in their trouble: he deli-
vereth them out of their distress.

For he maketh the storm to
cease : so that the waves thereof
are still.

Then are they glad, because
they are at rest : and so he

I of tbe Lord say so : wbom he
batb delivered i'rom tbe merci-
less rage of tbe sea.

Tbe Lord is gracious and full
of compassion : slow to anger,
and of gi'eat mercy.

He bath not dealt with us
according to our sins : neither
rewai'ded us according to our
iniquities.

But as the heaven is high
above the earth : so great bath
been his mercy towards us.

We found trouble and heavi-
ness : we were even at death's
door.

The waters of the sea had well-
nigb covered us : the proud wa-
ters had well-nigh gone over our
soul.

Tbe searoai-ed : and the stormy
wind lifted up the waves thereof.

We were carried up as it were
to heaven, and then down again
*nto the deep : our soul melted
within us, because of trouble ;

Then cried we unto thee, O
Lord : and thou didst deliver us
out of our distress.

Blessed be thy name, who didst
not despiiie the prayer of thy ser-
vants : but didst bear our cry,
and bast saved us.

Thou didst send forth thy
commandment : and the windy
storm ceased, and was turned
into a calm.

0 let us therefore praise the
Lord for his goodness : and de-
clare tbe wonders that he hath
done, and still doethfortbe chil-
dren of men.

to the measure of the gift of
Christ. Wherefore he saith,
When he ascended up on high,
he led captivity captive, and
gave gifts unto men. (Now
that he ascended, what is it
but that he also descended first
into the lower parts of the
earth ? He that descended, is
the same also that ascended up
far above all heavens, that he
might fill all things.) And he
gave some Apostles, and some
Prophets, and some Evangelists,
and some Pastors and Teachers ;
for the perfecting of the Saints,
for the work of the Ministry,
for the edifying of the Body of
Christ ; till we all come in the
unity of the faith, and of the
knowledge of the Son of God,
unto a perfect man, unto the
measure of the stature of the

VERILY, verily I say unto
you, He that entereth not
by the door into the sheep-fold,
but climbeth up some other way,
the same is a thief and a robber.
But he that entereth in by the
door is the shepherd of the
sheep. To him the porter
openeth, and the sheep hear his
voice ; and he calleth his own
sheep by name, and leadeth
them out. And when he
putteth forth his own sheep he
goeth before them, and the
sheep follow him ; for they
know his voice. And a stranger
will they not follow, but will
flee from him ; for they know
not the voice of strangers.
This parable spake Jesus unto
them, but they understood not
what things they were which he
spake unto them. Then said
Jesus unto them again. Verily,

Tha fear-tuavasdail a teicheadh,

agus nach eil suim aige do na

I am come that they might

an hireling, and not the
Shepherd, whose own the sheep
are not, seeth the wolf coming,
and leaveth the sheep, and
fleeth ; and the wolf catcheth
them, and scattereth the sheep.
The hireling fleeth, because he

taken out of the Gospel, and the
writings of the Apostles, of
what dignity, and of how great
importance this Office is, where-
unto ye are called. And now
again we exhort you, in the
Name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
that you have in remembrance,
into how high a Dignity, and to
how weighty an Office and
Charge ye are called: that is to
sa}', to be Messengers, Watch-
men, and Stewards of the Lord ;
to teach, and to premonish, to
feed and provide for the Lord's
family ; to seek for Christ's
sheep that are dispersed abroad,
and for his children who are
in the midst of this naughty
world, that they may be saved
through Christ for ever.

Have always therefore printed
in your remembrance, how
great a treasure is committed to
your charge. For they are the
sheep of Christ, which he
bought with his death, and for
whom he shed his blood. The
Church and Congregation whom
you must serve, is his Spouse,
I and his Body. And if it shall
happen the same Church, or any
Member thereof, to take any
hurt or hindrance by reason
of your negligence, ye know the
greatness of the fault, and also
the horrible punishment that
will ensue. Wherefore consider
with yourselves the end of your
Ministry towards the children
of God, towards the Spouse and
Body of Christ ; and see that
you never cease your labour,
your care and diligence, until
you have done all that lieth in
you, according to your bounden
duty, to bring all such as are
or shall be committed to your
charge, unto that agreement in
the faith and knowledge of God,

that 3'ou cannot by any other
means compass the doing of so
weighty a work, pertaining to
the salvation of man, but with
doctrine and exhortation taken
out of the holy Scriptures, and
with a life agreeable to the

ought to be in reading and
learning the Scriptures, and in
framing the manners both of
yourselves, and of them that
specially pertain unto you,
according to the rule of the

sober, of good behaviour, given
to hospitality, apt to teach ; not
given to wine, no striker, not
greedy o£ filthy lucre, but pati-

one that ruleth well his own house,

them. Ye know, from the first day
that I came into Asia, after what
manner I have been with you at
all seasons, serving the Lord
with all humility of mind, and
with many tears and temptations
which befel me by the lying in
wait of the Jews ; and how I
kept back nothing that was
profitable unto you, but have
shewed you, and have taught
you publickly, and from house
to house, testifying both to the
Jews, and also to the Greeks, re-
pentance toward God, and faith
toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
And now behold, I go bound in
the spirit unto Jerusalem, not
knowing the things that shall
befal me there ; save that the
Holy Ghost witnesseth in every
city, saying, that bonds and af-
flictions abide me. But none of
these things move me, neither
count I my life dear unto myself,
so that I might finish my course
with joy, and the ministry which
I have received of the Lord
Jesus, to testify the Gospel of the
grace of God. And now behold,
I know that ye all, among whom
I have gone preaching the king-
dom of God, shall see my face
no more. Wherefore I take you
to record this day, that I am
pure from the blood of all men.
For I have not shunned to de-
clare unto you all the counsel
of God. Take heed therefore un-
to yourselves, and to all the flock
over the which the Holy Ghost
hath made you Overseers, to feed
the Church of God which he hath
purchased with his own blood.
For I know this, that after my
departing shall grievous wolves
enter in among you, not sparing
the flock. Also oi'vourownselvo*

MOST gracious God, who
hast set thy Servant VIC-
TORIA our Queen upon the
Throne of her Ancestors, we
most humbly beseech thee to
protect her on the same from all
the dangers to which she may be
exposed; Hide her from the
gathering together of the fro-
ward, and from the insurrection
of wicked doers ; Do thou
weaken the hands, blast the
designs, and defeat the enter-
prizes of all her enemies, that
no secret conspiracies, nor open
violences, may disquiet her
Reign ; but that, being saftly
kept under the shadow of thy
wing, and supported by thy
power, she may triumph over
all opposition ; that so the world
may acknowledge thee to be her
defender and mighty deliverer
in all difficulties and adversities;
through Jesus Christ oui" Lord.
Amen.

hearts thy gi-eat goodness to us,
in setting thy Servant our most
gracious Queen over tbis Church
and Nation ; Give her, we be-
seech tbee, all those heavenly
graces tbat are requisite for so
high a trust; Let the work of
tbee her God prosper in her
hands ; Let her eyes behold the
success of her designs for the
service of thy true lleligion esta-
blished amongst us ; And make
her a blessed instrument of pro-
tecting andadvancing thy Truth,
wherever it is persecuted and op-
pressed ; Let Hypocrisy and
■ Profaneness, Superstition and
Idolatry, fly before ber face ;
Let not Heresies and false Doc-
I trines disturb the peace of the
Church, nor Schisms and cause-
i less Divisions weaken it ; But
grant us to be of one heart and
one mind in serving thee our
God, and obeying her according
to thy will : And that these
blessings may be continued to
after-ages, let there never be one
wanting in her house to succeed
her in the government of this
United Kingdom, that our pos-
terity may see ber children's
children, and peace upon Israel.
So we that are thy people, and
sbeep of thy pasture, shall give
thee thanks for ever, and will
always be shewing forth thy
praise from generation to gene-

The Epistle. 1 St. Pet. ii. 11.

DEARLY beloved, I beseech
you as strangers and pil-
grims, abstain from fleshly lusts,
which war against the soul ;
having your conversation hon-
est among the Gentiles: that,
whereas they speak against you
as evildoers, they may, by your
good works which they shall
behold, glorify God in the day
ofvisitation. Submityourselves
to every ordinance of man for
the Lord's sake ; whether it be
to the King, as supreme ; or
unto governors, as unto them
that are sent by him for the
punishment of evildoers, and for
the praise of them that do well.
For so is the will of God, that
with welldoing ye may put to
silence the ignorance of foolish
men : as free, and not using
your liberty for a cloke of ma-
liciousness, but as the servants
of God. Honour all men. Love
the brotherhood. Fear God.
Honour the King.

AND they sent out unto him
their disciples, with the He-

that thou art true, and teachest
the w-ay of God in truth, neither
carest thou for any man : for
thou regardest not the person of
men. Tell us therefore, What
thinkest thou ? Is it lawful to
give tribute unto Caesar, or not.^
But Jesus perceived their wicked-
ness, and said. Why tempt ye
me, ye hypocrites ? shew me

Give us grace seriously to lay to
heart the great dangers we are
in by our unhappy divisions.
Take away all hatred and pre-
judice, and whatsoever else may
hinder us from godly Union and
Concord: that, as there is butone
Body, and one Spirit, and one
Hope of our Calling, one Lord, one
Faith, one Baptism, one God and
Father of us all, so we may
henceforth be all of one heart,
and of one soul, united in one
holy bond of Truth and Peace,
of Faith and Charity, and may
with one mind and one mouth
glorify thee ; through Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.

VII. Of the Old Testament.

THE Old Testament is not
contrary to the New : for
both in the Old and New Testa-
ment everlasting life is offered
to Mankind by Christ, who is
the only Mediator between God
and Man, being both God
and Man. Wherefore they are
not to be heard, which feign
that the old Fathers did look
only for transitory promises.
Although the Law given from
God by Moses, as touching
Ceremonies and Rites, do not
bind Christian men, nor the
Civil precepts thereof ought of
necessity to be received in any
common-wealth ; yet notwith-
standing, no Christian man
whatsoever is free from the obe-
dience of the Commandments
which are called Moral.

Adhamh; leis am bheil duine air

agus a tha thaobh nadair air

called the Apostles Creed, ought
thoroughly to be received and
believed : for they may be
proved by most certain warrants
of holy Scripture.

IX. Of original or Birth-sin.

ORIGINAL Sin standeth
not in the following ot
Adam, (as the Pelagians do
vainly talk ;) but it is the fault
and corruption of the Nature of
every man, that naturally is
ingendered of the offspring of
Adam; whereb}'^ man is very
far gone from original righteous-
ness, and is of his own nature
inclined to evil, so that the
flesh lusteth always contrary to
the Spirit ; and therefore in
every person born into this
world, it deserveth God's wrath
and damnation. And this in-
fection of nature doth remain,
yea in them that are regene-
rated ; whereby the lust of
the flesh, called in the Greek,
^pijvr]ixa (TapKos, which some do
expound the wisdom, some sen-
suality, some the affection, some
the desire, of the llesh, is not
subject to the Law of God.
And although there is no con-
demnation for them that believe
and are baptized, yet the
Apostle doth confess, that con-
cupiscence and lust hath of it-
self the nature of sin.

X. Of Free- Will

THE condition of Man after
the fall of Adam is such,
that he cannot turn and prepare
himself, by his own natural
strength and good works, to

XI. OftJieJufftiJtcationofMan.

WE are accounted righteous
before God, only for the
merit of our Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ by Faith, and not
for our own works or deserv-
ings : Wherctbre, that we are
justified by Faith only is a most
wholesome Doctrine, and very
full of comfort, as more largely
is expressed in the Homily of
Justification.

XII. Of Good Worhf.

ALBEIT that Good Works,
which are the fruits of
Faith, and follow after Justifi-
cation, cannot put away our
sins, and endure the severity of
God's Judgement ; yet are they
pleasing and acceptable to God
in Christ, and do spring out
necessarily of a true and lively
Faith ; insomuch that by them a
lively Faith may be as evidently
known as a tree discerned by the
fruit.

XIII. Of WorJcs before Justifi-
cation,
WORKS done before the
grace of Christ, and the
Inspiration of bis Spirit, are not
pleasant to God, forasmuch as
they spring not of faith in Jesus
Christ, neither do they make
men meet to receive grace, or
(as the School-authors say) de-
serve grace of congruity ; yea

soilleir, 'jS^uair a ni sibh gach ni

XV. Mu CJiriosd amhain gun

mhuil ruinne anns na h-uilenith-

Thainig e gu bhi na Uan gun
smal, an ti le e fein iobairt aon
uair, a thug air falbh peacainn-
ean an t' saoghail ; agus mar
tha N. Eoin a labhairt cha robh
peacadh ann. Ach sinne uile, ge
do tha sinn air ar baisteadh agus
air ar breith a ris ann an Criosd,

their sinn nach 'eil peacadh ann-
ainn tha sinn 'gar mealladh fein
agus cha 'n eil an fhiriun ann-

XIV. Of Worhs of Supereroga-
tion.
VOLUNTARY Works be-
sides, over and above,
God's Commandments, which
they call "Works of Supereroga-
tion, cannot be taught without
arrogance and impiet3^ : for by
them men do declare, that they
do not only render unto God as
much as they are bound to do,
but that they do more for his
sake, than of bounden duty is
required : whereas Christ saith
plainly. When ye have done all
that are commanded to you,
say. We are unprotitable ser-
vants.

XV. Of Christ alone without
Sin.

CHRIST in the truth of our
nature was made like unto
us in all things, sin only except,
from which he was clearly void,
both in his flesh, and in his spirit.
He came to be the Lamb with-
out spot, who, by sacrifice of
himself once made, should take
away the sins of the world, and
sin, as Saint Johii saith, was not
in liim. Bat all we the rest, al-
though baptized, and born again
in Christ, yet offend in many
things; and if we say we have
no sin, we deceive ourselves, and
the truth is not in us.

XVI. Of Sin after Baptism.

|V[OT every deadly sin wil-
1^ lingj^y committed after
Baptism is sin against the
Holy Ghost, and unpardonable.
Wherefore the grant of re-
pentance is not to be denied
to such as fall into sin after
Baptism. After we have re-
ceived the Holy Ghost, we may
de])art from grace given, and
fall into sin, and by the grace
of God we may arise again,
and amend our lives. And
therefore they are to be con-
demned, which say, they can
no more sin as long as they
live here, or deny the place of
forgiveness to such as truly re-
pent.

XVII. Of Predestination and
Election.

PREDESTINATION to Life
is the everlasting purpose
of God, whereby (before the
foundations of the world were
laid) he hath constantly decreed
by his counsel secret to us, to
deliver from curse and damna-
tion those whom he hath chosen
in Christ out of mankind, and
to bring them by Christ to ever-
lasting salvation, as vessels made
to honour. Wherefore, they
which he hath endued with so
excellent a benefit of God he
called according to God's pur-
pose by his Spirit working in due
season : they through Grace
obey the calling: they be justi-
fied freely : they be made sons
of God by adoption : they be
made like the image of his only-

As the godly consideration of
Predestination, and our Election

fort to godly persons, and such
as feel in themselves the working
of the Spirit of Christ, mortify-

God's Predestination, is a most
j dangerous downfal, whereby the
j Devil doth thrust them either
I into desperation, or into wretch-
I lessness of most unclean living,
no less perilous than desperation.
Furthermore, we must receive
God's promises in such wise, as
they be generally set forth to us
in holy Scripture : and, in our
doings, that Will of God is to
be followed, which we have ex-
pressly declared unto us in the

cording to Christ's ordinance in
all those things that of necessity
are requisite to the same.

Rome hath erred, not onl}' in
their living and manners of

of Faith,

XX. Of tie Authority of the
Church.

THE Church hath power to
decree Rites or Ceremonies,
and authority in controversies of
Faith : And yet it is not lawful
for the Church to ordain any
thing that is contrary to God's
Word Avritten, neither may it so
expound one place of Scripture,
that it be repugnant to another.
Wherefore, although the Church
be a witness and a keeper of
holy Writ, yet, as it ought not
to decree any thing against the
same, so besides the same ought
it not to enforce any thing to
he believed for necessity of Sal-
vation.

XXI. Of the AutliorUy of
General Councils.

("GENERAL Councils may
J not be gathered together
without the commandment and
will of Princes, And when they
be gathered toge'her, (foras-
much as the}" be an assembly of
men, whereof all be not governed
with the Spirit and Word of
God,) they may err, and some-
times have erred, even in things
pertaining unto God. Where-
fore things ordained b}' them as
necessary to salvation have
neither strength nor authority,
unless it may be declared that
they be taken out of holy Scrip-
ture.

XXII. OfPurgatory.

THE Romish Doctrine con-
cerning Purgator}', Par-
dons, Worshipping and Adora-
tion, as well of Imagers as of
Reliques, and also invocation of
Saints, is a fond thing vainl}' in-
vented, and grounded upon no
warranty of Scripture, but rather
repugnant to the Word of God.

XXIII. Of ATinistering in the
Congregation.

IT is not lawful for any man
to take upon him the otHce
of public preaching, or minister-
ing the Sacraments in the Con-
gregation, before he be lawfully
called, and sent to execute the
same. And those we ought to
judge lawfully called and sent,
which be chosen and called to
this work by men who have
publick authority given unto
them in the Congregaticm, to
call and send Ministers into the.
Lord's vineyard.

XXIV. Ofsppah'nff in the Con-
cfrecfation in such a tongue as
the people tinderstandeth.

JT is a thing plainly repug-
nant to the Word of God,
and the custom of the Primitive
Church, to have publick Prayer
in the Church, or to minister
the Sacraments in a tongue not
understanded of the people.

XXV. Of the Sacraments.

SACRAMENTS ordained of
Christ be not only badges
or tokens of Christian men's
profession, but rather they be cer-
tain sure witnesses, and effectual
signs of grace, and God's good
Avill towards us. by the which he
doth work invisibly in us, and
doth not only quicken, but also
strengthen and confirm our
Faith in bim.

There are two Sacraments or-
dained of Christ our Lord in the
Gospel, that is to sa}^ Baptism,
and the Supper of the Lord.

Those five commonly called
Sacraments, that is to saj', Con-
firmation, Penance, Orders, Ma-
trimony, and extreme Unction,
are not to be counted for Sacra-
ments of the Gospel, being such
as have grown partlj-- of the
corrupt following of th e Apostles,
partly are states of life allowed
in the Scriptures ; but yet have
not like nature of Sacraments
with Baptism, and the Loi'd's
Supper, for that they have not
any visible sign or ceremony or-
dained of God.

The Sacraments were not or-
dained of Christ to be gazed
upon, or to be carried about,
but that Ave should duly use
them. And in such only as
worthily receive the same they
have a wholesome effect or ope-
ration : but they that receive
them unworthily purchase to
themselves damnation, as Saint
Paul saith.

ALTHOUGH in the visible
Church the evil be ever
mingled with the good, and
sometimes the evil have chief
authority in the Ministration of
the Word and Sacraments, yet
forasmuch as they do not the
same in their own name, but in
Christ's, and do minister by his
commission and authority, we
may use their Ministry, both in
hearing the Word of God, and
I in receiving of the Sacraments.
Neither is the effect of Christ's
ordinance taken away by their
wickedness, nor the grace of
God's gilts diminished from such
as by faith and rightly do receive
the Sacraments ministered unto
them; which be etlectual, be-
cause of Christ's institution and
promise, although they be minis-
tered by evil men.

Nevertheless, it appertaineth
to the discipline of the Church,
that enquiry be made of evil
Ministers, and that they be ac-
cused by those that have know-

daoine Criosdaidh air an aith-

tha e mar an ceudna na chomb-

XXVII. Of Baptism.

BAPTlJS]\r is not only a sign
of profession, and mark of
difference, whereb}-^ Christian
men are discerned from others
that be not christened, but it is
also a sign of Regeneration or
new Birth, whereby, as by an
instrument, they that receive
Baptism rightly are grafted into
the Church ; the promises of
forgiveness of sin, and of our
adoption to be the sons of God
by the Holy Ghost, are visibly
signed and sealed ; Faith is
confirmed ; and Grace increased
by virtue of prayer unto God.
The Baptism of young Children
is in any wise to be retained in
the Church, as most agreeable
with the institution of Christ.

XXYIII. Of the Lord's
Sujjjjer.

THE Supper of the Lord is
not only a sign of the love
that Christians ought to have
among themselves one to an-
other ; but rather is a Sacra-
ment of our Redemption by
Christ's death : insomuch that
to such as rightly, worthily, and
with faith receive the same,
the Bread which we break is a
partaking of the Body of Christ ;
and likewise the Cup of Blessing
is a partaking of the Blood of
Christ.

change of the substance of Bread
and Wine) in the Supper of the
Lord, cannot be proved by holy
Writ ; but is repugnant to the
plain words of Scripture, over-
throweth the nature of a Sacra-
ment, and hath given occasion
to many superstitions.

The Body of Christ is given,
taken, and eaten, in the iSupper,
only after an heavenlj' and spi-
ritual manner. And the mean
whereb}' the Body of Christ is
received and eaten in the Sup^
per is Faith.

The Sacrament of the Lord's
Supper was not by Christ's or-
dinance reserved, carried about,
lifted up, or worshipped.

XXTX. Of the Wicked ichich
sat not the Body of Christ in
the use of the Lord's Supper.

THE Wicked, and such as be
void of a lively faith, al-
though they do carnally and
visibly press with their teeth
(as Saint Augustine saith) the
Sacratnent of the Body and
Blood of Christ, yet in no wise
are they partakers of Christ :
but rather, to their condemna-
tion, do eat and drink the sign
or Sacrament of so great a
thing.

XXX. Ofhoth kinds.

THE Cup of the Lord is not
to be denied to the Lay-
people : for both the parts of
the Lord's Sacrament, by Christ's
ordinance and commandment,
ought to be ministered to all
Christian men alike.

XXXI. Of the one Ohiation
of Christ finished uj^on the
Cross.

I^HE Offering of Christ once
made is that perfect re-
demption, propitiation, and sa-
tisfaction, for all the sins of the
whole world, both original and
actual ; and there is none other
satisfaction for sin, but that
alone. Wherefore the sacrifices
of Masses, in the which it was
commonly said, that the Priest
did offer Christ for the quick
and the dead, to have reptiission
of pain or guilt, were blasphe-
mous fables, and dangerous de-
ceits.

XXXII. Of the Carriage of

BISHOPS, Priests, and
Deacons, are not com-
manded by God's Law, either
to vow the estate of single life,
or to abstain from marriage :
therefore it is lawful for them,
as for all other Christian men,
to marry at their own discretion,
as they shall judge the same to
serve better to godliness.

XXXIII. Of excommunicate
Persons, hoio thf-jj are to be
avoided.

THAT person which by open
denunciation of the Church
is rightly cut off irom the unit}'
of the Church, and excommuni-
cated, ought to be taken of the
whole multitude of the faithful,
as an Heathen and Publican,
until he be openly reconciled by
penance, and received into the
Church by a Judge that hath
authority thereunto.

XXXIV. Of the Traditions of
the Church.

IT is not necessary that tra-

in all places one, and utterly
like ; for at all times they have
been divers, and may be chang-
ed according to the diversities
of countries, times, and men's
manners, so that nothing be
ordained against God's Word.
Whosoever through his private
judgement, willingly and pur-
posely, doth openly break the
traditions and ceremonies of the
Church, which be not repug-
nant to the Word of God, and
be ordained and approved by
common authoritj^ ought to be
rebuked openly, (that otheis
may fear to do the like,) as
he that offendeth against the
common order of the Church,
and hurteth the authority of
the Magistrate, and wound-
eth the consciences of the weak
brethren.

Church hath authority to or-
dain, change, and abolish, cere-
monies or rites of tlie Church

ty, so that ail things be done to

THE Book of Consecration
of Archbishops and Bi-

and Deacons, lately set fcrth in
the time of Edward the Sixth,
and confirmed at the same time
b}' authority of Parliament, doth
contain all things necessary to
such Consecration and Order-
ing : neither hath it any thing,
that of itself is superstitious and
ungodly. And therefore whoso-
ever are consecrated or ordered
according to the Rites of that
Book, since the second year of
the fore-named King Edioard
unto this time, or hereafter shall
be consecrated or ordered ac-
cording to the same Rites ; we
decree all such to be rightly,

THE Queen's Majesty hath
the chief power in this
Realm of England, and other
her Dominions, unto whom the
chief Government of all Estates
of this realm, whether they be
Ecclesiastical or Civil, in all
causes doth appertain, and is
not, nor ought to be, subject to
any foreign Jurisdiction.

Where we attribute to the
Queen's Majesty the chief Go-

or of the Sacraments, the which
