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 United Church of England and Ireland: Together With the Psalter or Psalms of David Pointed as They Are to Be Sung or Said in Churches Our general aim therefore in this undertaking was, not to gratify this or that party in any their unreafonable demands; but to do that, which to our belt underliandings we conceived might molt tend to the prefervation of Peace and Unity in the Church 5 the procuring of Reverence, and exciting of Piety and Devotion in the publick Worlhip of God and the cut ting ofi'occafion from them that feek occalion ofcavil or quar rel againlt the Liturgy of the Church.

If any man, who {hall defire a more particular account of'the feveral Alterations in any part of the Liturgy, {hall take the pains to compare the prefent Book with the former; we doubt not but the reafon of the change may eafily appear.
