This important convocation, as far as official Acts could do so, destroyed the Reformation. Before the 156 THE REFORMATION end of the first year of Mary's reign, the Latin Service was ordered to be universally used ; married priests were no longer to officiate, and the ancient ceremonies of the Mediaeval Church which had been abolished were restored.
