To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Forasmuch, " says this document, " as that vigil is abused as other vigils were, our pleasure is, as you require, that the said vigils shall be abolished, as the others be, and there shall be no watching nor ringing, but as be com- monly used upon other holidays at night. " By an injunction of Edward VI. , it was ordered iu respect to the conduct of the Church service, that " all ringing and knoUiug of bells shall be utterly forborne during that time, except one bell in con- venient time to b...e rung or knolled before the sermon. " Bells, prior to the Reformation, were used on numberless religious occasions, and together with lights accompanied the carrying about of the Mass. Indeed they have in all times been very pet articles. No other baubles, perhaps, have proved such acceptable gifts to savages from their civilized discoverers or visitors as small bells; which the Indian Chiefs of North America still proudly wear faslencd to ilnir head dresses on days of special festival. G 2 GO THE BELL : qunrrel with our own parish peal, on account of a single extravaganza : for we owe it some thanks for divers gratulatory ringings, one of which, especially, is not to be forgotten.
