Description
Excerpt from The Ritual Reason Why
IN this Second Edition upwards of a hundred additional paragraphs have been added, in cluding three wholly new sections - one on Benedictions, another on Funeral and Mortuary celebrations, now happily on the increase among us, and a third, by way of Appendix, on the services for the Canonical Hours as used in our sisterhoods and other religious houses. The general arrangement has also been improved, and while the (at present) chie?y used Ritual has been, as was inevitable in a book which deals with things as they are rather than as they should be, most prominently dealt with, care has been taken togive as far as possible a clear and definite view, both of the Con tinental and of the old English ceremonials.
