Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Documentary Annals of the Reformed Church of England, Vol. 1 of 2: Being a Collection of Injunctions, Declarations, Orders, Articles of Inquiry, &C., From the Year 1846 to the Year 1716
Of these three classes of records the first must be collected by other hands, and the second cannot be included within the present undertaking. The remaining one has been compiled in the first instance, as bearing more directly upon the personal government of the Church, and possessing a more extensive range and operation than the others. Consisting, as it does, of specific orders, it not only comprises the records of its own particular class, but when taken with its natural accompaniments, includes also the practical measures of the other two, and exhibits them in their outward form and pressure. The present volumes accordingly contain Injunctions and Ordinances from the Crown and the Privy Council, together with such letters and orders, as being issued by archbishops or their representatives, possessed authority, whether direct or derivative, over the members of the church. Other papers have been added, wherever they seemed necessary.
