'Fullin references and authority , systematic and formalin division, with enough 

 of life in the style to counteract the dryness inseparable from its brevity, and 

 exhibiting the results rather than the principles of investigation. MR. HARD- 

 WICK is to be congratulated on the successful achievement of a difficult task.'" 

 CHRISTIAN REMEMBRANCER. 



'He has bestowed patient and extensive reading on the collection of his materials ; 

 he has selected them with judgment; and he presents them in an equable and 

 compact style." SPECTATOR. 



" To a good method and good materials MR. HARDWICK adds that great virtue, 

 a perfectly transparent style. We did not expect to find great literary qualities 

 in such a manual, but we have found them ; we should be satisfied in this 

 respect with conciseness and intelligibility , but while this book has both, it is 

 also elegant, highly finished, and highly interesting." NONCONFORMIST . 



III. 



History of the Book of Common Prayer, 



together with a Rationale of the several Offices. By FRANCIS 

 PROCTER, M.A., Vicar of Witton, Norfolk, formerly Fellow of 

 St. Catharine's College, Cambridge. Fourth Edition, revised and 

 enlarged. Crown 8vo. cloth, 10s. 6d. 



MR. PROCTER'S ' History of the Book of Common Prayer' is by far the best 



commentary extant Not only do the present illustrations embrace the 



whole range of original sources indicated by MR. PALMER, but MR. PROCTER 

 compares the present Book of Common Prayer with the Scotch and American 

 forms; and he frequently sets out in full the Sarum Offices. As a manual of 

 extensive information, historical and ritual, imbued with sound Church princi- 

 ples, we are entirely satisfied with MR. PROCTER'S important volume." 



CHRISTIAN .REMEMBRANCER. 



It is indeed a complete and fairly-written history of the Liturgy ; and from the 

 dispassionate way in which disputed points are touched on, will prove to many 

 troubled consciences what ought to be known to them, viz. : that they may, 

 without fear of compromising the principles of evangelical truth, give their assent 

 and consent to the contents of the Book of Common Prayer. MR. PROCTER has 

 done a great service to the Church by this admirable digest."
