Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Old Anglicanism and Modern Ritualism
Have such sentiments as these ever prevailed in the reformed Church of England before? Not in the sixteenth century when Cranmer, Latimer and Ridley died to resist them and the Elizabethan divines, repte sented by Jewell, firmly repudiated them. Not in the eighteenth century when the Church and nation had settled down to an unimpassioned Protestantism. Not in the seventeenth century, as, I believe, is proved to demonstration by the following pages.
Then there is no precedent for the disloyalty to the principles of the Reformation, the acceptance of Mediaeval doctrines and the adoption of the ritual and ceremonies naturally accompanying those doc trines such as we see now prevailing and called by the ill-chosen name of Ritualism.
