Excerpt from The Ancient Liturgy of the Church of England: According to the Uses of Sarum Bangor York Hereford and the Modern Roman Liturgy
There are certainly some who very imperfectly under stand what is meant by these Old Uses of the Church of England; they have Often remarked the passage which I have quoted from the Preface to the Prayer Book, and would be glad to learn something about it. Vvheatley and Shepherd, authors generally appealed to, pass over without remark the Preface: the latter however1 in his Introduction does say, that it is deserving Of notice, that hitherto there had not been in England any one service established by public authority for the general use Of the Church. In the southern parts Of the island, the Offices according to the Use Of Sarum, and in the northern, those Of York, were generally followed. In South Wales the Offices Of Hereford were adopted, and in North Wales, those Of Bangor, 850. Z and so he passes on. Nor does Dr. Nicholls in his Commentary make any remark upon the passage. Bishop Mant in his se lection of Notes upon the Common Prayer, has referred to Sparrow and Dr. Burn, who give no further information upon the subject, except indeed that Osmund, the Bishop of Salisbury, about the year 1070, was the compiler of the Use Of Sarum. 1.
