THE Order for Morning Prayer, the Litany, and the Order for the Administration of

the Lord's Supper or Holy Communion, are independent Services, and may be used either separately or together; Provided that no one of these Services be habitually disused.

The Litany may be used either in place of the Prayers that follow the Collect for Grace in the Order for Morning Prayer, or in place of the Prayers that follow the Collect for Aid against Perils in the Order for Evening Prayer.

On any day when Morning and Evening Prayer shall have been said, or are to be said in Church, the Minister may, at any other Service, with or without a Sermon or Lecture, use such devotions as he shall at his discretion select from this Book, subject to the direction of the Ordinary.

For days of Fasting and Thanksgiving, appointed by the Civil or by the Ecclesiastical Authority, and for other special occasions for which no Service or Prayer hath been provided in this Book, the Bishop may set forth such Form or Forms as he shall think fit, in which case the same shall be used and none other.

THE

THE ORDER

HOW THE PSALTER IS APPOINTED TO BE READ.

HE Psalter shall be read through once every month, as it is there appointed, both for Morning and for Evening Prayer. And when a month hath one-and-thirty days, it is ordered that the same Psalms shall be read on the last day of the said month which were read the day before.

The Minister shall, on the days for which they are appointed, use the Proper Psalms, as set forth in the Table of Proper Psalms. But note that, on other days, instead of reading from the Psalter as divided for Daily Morning and Evening Prayer, he may read one of the Selections set out by this Church.

Note, That when he announceth a Selection of Psalms, the Minister shall say, The Psalms selected are such, or such or The Psalm selected is such a one: (giving the numbers, or number, as the case may be).

THE ORDER

HOW THE REST OF THE HOLY SCRIPTURE
IS APPOINTED TO BE READ.

THE Old Testament is appointed for the First Lessons, and the New Testament for

the Second Lessons at Morning and Evening Prayer throughout the Year.

And to know what Lessons shall be read every day, look for the day of the month in the Calendar following, and there ye shall find the Chapters that shall be read for the Lessons both at Morning and at Evening Prayer; except only the Moveable Holy-days, which are not in the Calendar; and the Immoveable where there is a blank left in the column of Lessons; the Proper Lessons for all which days are to be found in the Table of Proper Lessons.

If in any Church, upon a Sunday or Holy-day, both Morning and Evening Prayer be not said, the Minister may read the Lessons appointed either for Morning or for Evening Prayer.

At Evening Prayer on Sunday, the Minister may read the Lesson from the Gospels appointed for that Day of the Month, in place of the Second Lesson for the Sunday. Upon any Day for which no Proper Lessons are provided, the Lessons appointed in the Calendar for any Day in the same week may be read in place of the Lessons for the Day. On Days of Fasting and Thanksgiving, especially appointed, and on occasions of Ecclesiastical Conventions and of Charitable Collections, the Minister may appoint such Lessons as he shall think fit in his discretion.

HYMNS AND ANTHEMS.

HYMNS may be sung before and after every Office in this Book, and also before and

after Sermons; but only such Hymns shall be used in this Church as are or may be duly set forth or allowed by the authority of the same; and Anthems only in the words either of Holy Scripture or of the Book of Common Prayer.

TO BE READ AT MORNING AND EVENING PRAYER THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
