Excerpt from The Book of Common Prayer: And Administration of the Sacraments, and Other Rites and Ceremonies of the Church, According to the Use of the Church of England; Together With the Psalter or Psalms of David, Pointed as They Are to Be Sung or Said in Churches; And the Form and Manner Of IN the Introductions and Notes to the teacher's prayer book I have endeavoured to keep strictly to the object indicated by the title; and, without any attempt at original research or exhaustive treatment, to su ply to Churchmen, and especially to those who iiave to give religious teaching, some knowledge of the origin, the principles, and the substance of the Prayer Bock, which they are continually using, and which, perhaps through that very familiarity, is apt to be imperfectly understood. I have therefore not thought it meces sary-to encumber its pages, and embarrass its readers, with quotations from authorities, although I have made free use of the many excellent works.
