EVENING PRAYER] This part of the chapter, prior to 1662, was not
printed out in full; only the variations from Morning Prayer were set
forth.

DAILY TO BE SAID AND USED] See Preface--_And all Priests and Deacons
are to say daily the Morning and Evening Prayer, either privately or
openly . . . the Curate . . . shall say the same in the Parish Church
or Chapel where he ministereth_.

ornaments of the Church] The Canons of 1604 order a number of things
to be provided at the charges of the parish, which may be included
under this head, such as Communion Table, Pulpit, Reading-desk, Font,
Alms-chest, Alms-basin, Vessels for Holy Communion, Bible, Common
Prayer Book, Book of Homilies, Parchment Register Book and Coffer. It
would not be easy to make a complete list of things authorised by this
Rubric and elsewhere.

and of the Ministers thereof] The discussion of the meaning of the
Ornaments of the Ministers belongs chiefly to the Communion Service.
There has been no question that for Morning and Evening Service a
Surplice and Hood are ordered to be worn.

second year of King Edward VI., although the session lasted into his
third year.

for Evening Service. Morning and Evening Prayer (called also Mattins
and Evensong: see Table of Proper Lessons) are two divisions of the
same chapter.

These two Services are very much alike. The map on the next page shows
their construction.

An examination of this map will show that the plan of the Lord's Prayer
is closely followed. There are two parts and an introduction. Of the
two parts Praise comes first, as in the Lord's Prayer.

Each of the two parts begins with the Lord's Prayer, which is arranged
with a setting so as to mark the character of what follows.

Every piece of the Praise portion is set with a Praise-Termination, or
Doxology: and this portion includes both kinds of Praise, viz.
Outspoken Praise, and Reverent Hearing of God's Word. In like manner
the Prayer portion includes th
