AN ROMHRADH. BE gliocas Eajrlais Shasunn rialDh bho thus cruinneachaidh a h- Urrmighean Coitchionn, gu'n gleid- heatlh i am meadhoin eadar an da clirich, gu'n a bhi tuilleadh is rag aim an diultadlL no tuilleadh is saor ann an ceadacliadh atharrachadh air bith uaith.

Do icir .~iii tha sinn a' tairiirn, aim an ItiaL'liladh iomad Prionnsa air a bheil cuimhne bhean- nuichtebho'n Ath-leasachadh, air do"'n Eaglais a bhi air a brosnachadh le smuaintibh fhirinneach agus toirteil chum sin a dheanadh, cheadaich.i gu deanta leithid do mhuthanuinn ann an cuid do nithe araidh, mar a chun- nacas iomchaidh 'nan hunibh-san I'a- leth. Gidheadh 'na leithid do dhoigh, 's gu bheil am priomb Chorp agus a chuid is feumaile (cho mhath ris a chuid is sonraichte dheth ann andealbh agus an ordugh) agus air marsuinn 's: n doigh cheudna gus an la 'n diugh, na shcasamh barrantach agus neo-ghlu- aiste fhathast, dhaindeoin gach oid- heii-p diomhain agus ionnsaidhean aingoallta rinneadh 'na aghaidh, le leithid is tha air an toirt gu atharra- chadh agus a leig ris a ghna' gu'n robh tuillidh suim aca d'a faoin bhar- ailean, agus an tairVjhe dhiomhah- fein, na bh' aca do'n dleasnas sin a ta dh' fhiachaibh orra airson math a chinne-daoine.
Ciod na meadhonan mi-dhlighcacb leis an robh, agus ciod na cuisean aimhleasach ri linn na'n aimhlisgean mi-shona fo dheireadh, leis an d thai- nig an Urmiiph Choitchionn gu bhi air a Ijncadh (ired' a bha i orduichte le Laghail)li na Tire agus na Laghanan sin I'ialili thntaast gun an cuir air chul), tha e robh aithnichte do'n t- saoghal, agus ni miann leinn an aithris a so. Ach aig Ath-aiseag sona a Mho- rachd an dara Righ Tearlach, chun- nacas iomchaidh am measg caochla do nithe eile, gu'm biodh an Urniiigh Choitchionn, mar an ceudna air a cleachadh (nach no chuireadh riibli gu laghail air chul) mar a biodh cuid do mheadhonan tiomail air angnatha- chadh gu bacadh leis na daoine sin a ghlac an riaghladh gun choir, rinn iad e na mhor earruinn da'n gnothach I gu'n deauadh iad a sluagh^mi-fnoil- ichte leis &n Urnuigh Choitchionn, chunnaic iad iad fein ann an neart ! chliu agus a thaobh an tairbh fein I gu'm buineadh dhoibh sin a dheanadh I (mar a h-aidicheadh iad gu saor gun I robh iad fein am mearrachd, ni tha 1 gle chruaidh a thoirt air a leithid sin j do dhaoine dheanadh), agus gu bacadh I a h-ath-aiseag rinn iad an uile dhicheal. I Chum sin a dheanadh bha caochla do j Leabhraichean beaga clodh-bhuailte I an aghaidh an Leabhair Vriiuigh, bha na seann choirean air an tional maille j ri caochla do dh' aireamh nuadh air a chuir riutha, a thuillidh air na bh' ann roimh gus an t-aireamh a mheu- dachadh. Ma dheireadh, ghnathaich- eadh mor liosdachd ri Mhorachd Naomh, gu'n reachadh an Lealjhar ath-cheartachadh, agus a leithid do dh' atharrachadh a dheanadh ann, no chuirris, mar a smuainichte iomchaidh chum fois a thoirt do chogaisean an- mhunn ; chum so a dheanadh, dh' aontaich a Mhorachd ghrasail bho thoil dhiadhaidh, lantoi!eacbadh a thoirt (co fad 's a b'urrainn duil a bhi aca gu reusanta ris) d'a uile iochdran- ailjh, geb' air bith aidmheil da'n robh iad.
Anns an ath-bheachachadh so, rinn sinn dicheal gu toirt fa'near na mca- sarachd cheudna, mar a ta sinn a faicinn a chleachdadh's a chòr cheud- na's na timibh roi'-so. A^-^us uime sin, mu na caochla mhuthainnean a chaidh a thaii'Sge dhuinn a dheanadh.
chuir Sinn cril ri nile leithidean 's a bha, aon cliuid do bhrigh chunnartaich (mar bha gu uaigneach a gi'arradh as cuid do' Teacrasg shuidhictite, no Cle- ichdadh cliuiteach Eaglais Shasanu, ao gu firinneach a ta 'n aghaidh an lomlain do dh' Eaglais Choitchionn Chriosd) no anns naclirobb lirigh sam bith, ach gu tur faon agus diombain. Acb a leitbid a db' atbarracbadb 's a bha air an tairsge dbuinn (le ciod air bith pearsaibh, fo ciod air bith^ leis- geulan, no ciod air bith run mu'n do thairgeadh lad) agus mar a chunnacas dhuinne ann an ceum air bith iomch- aidh no freagracli,rinn sinn gu deonach le'r toil fein aontachadh leo : cna d' eignichear sinn chum sin a dheanadh le' neart air bith Argumaid ag dear- bhadh dhuinn mu'n eiginnair deanadh na muthainneainn ceudna : Oir tha sinn Ian deirbhte 'nar breitheanas fein (agus ga aideachd so do'n t-saoghal) gu bheil an Leabhar mar a shuidhich- eadh e roimh leis an Lagh, gu'n ni sam bith sgriobhta ann a ta 'n aghaidh Focal Dhe, no'n aghaidh Teagasg fallain, no nach faod duine diadhaidh le deagh choguis a ghnathachadh agus stl-iochdadh leis, no nach eil gu soilleir Ian deirbhte ge be sam bith neach a chuireas na aghaidh : ma 's e gu'n ceaduichear dha leithid do mhi- neachadb firinneach agus baigheil mar a dhleasadh arm an ceartas reusanta bhi air a cheaduchadh do uile Sgrio- bhaidhean daona, gu h-araid a leithid 's a ta air an cur a mach le Ughdarras, agus eadhoin do'n eadar-theanga- chadh is fearr do'n Scriobtur fein.
Be ar run cumanta uime sin, annsa chuis so ghabhail os laimh, gun a chuideachd so no chnideachd ud a thoileachadh ann an aon air bith do larrtasaibh mi -reusanta; ach an ni sin a dheanadh a bhreithnich sinn le'r tuigse fein, bu ro mho ghleidheadh Sith agus Aonachd 'san Eaglais; a bhuanicheadh Uram, agus a bhros- uuicheadh Diadhachd, agus Crabhadh ann an Aoradh follaiseach Dhe ; agus a toii-t air falbh aobhar uathsan a ta 'g iarraidh aobhar comh-stri no aini- hreite 'n aghaidh Urnvdghean na h- Eaglaise. A.gus thaobh na'n caochla atharracbaidii bho'n Leabhar bha roi' so, CO dhiu a ta iad deanta tre acharr- achadh, no meadachadh no an doigh air bith eile, is leoir an cunntas cum- anta so thoirt umpa. Gu'n d' rinneadh a chuid is mòtha do na muthainnean 'sa cheud aite, air son riaghailt is fearr dhoibh-san a tha gu frithealadh ann an earruinn air bith do'n t-Seir- bheis Dhiadhaidh a ta gu h-araid deanta 's na Clar-mhiosan agus anns an Ruadhxicean. ; no an dara aite, gu
ainmeacbadh na bu ro-chothromaiclie cuid do dh'fhocail no seann doighean labhairt ann am briathraibh bu ro f hreagaraiche do chainnt na'n àmaibh so, agus gu tuilleadh minichidh air cuid do dh'fhocail agus do bhriathar- an, a bha aon chuid teagail na seadh, no bha buailteach do mhi-sheadh: no 'san treas aite, gu eadar theanga- chadh na bu ro shoDleire leithid do earrunnan do'n Scriobtur naomh agus a ta 'san Leabhar Umuigh : gu h'ar- aid 'sna Litirichibh agus anns na Soisgeulaibh, acrus ann an caochla ionadabh eile, tha iad a nis orduicbte ri Ijhi air an leabhadh reir an eadar theaugachaidh. dheireanaich ; agus chunnacas iomchaidh gu'm biodh cuid do Umuighean agus Breith-bui- dheachasaibh freagarach airson aobh- ar araid air a chuir riu 'nan ionad dUgheach fein ; gu araid mar iad sin air Muir, maille ri Dreuchd aii-son Baisteadh na muinntir a thig gu aois : agus ged nach robh so co feumail nuau- bha'n Leabhar roi' so air a sgriobhadh, gidheadh le fas an Anabhaistidh a shnaig 'nar measg tre mhi-bheus na h-aimsir roi' so, tha'n dreuchd sin a nis iomchaidh agus faodaidh e bhi ghna' feumail airson na Duchasuich a bhaisteadh 'nar Tiribh-cein agus dream eile a dh'iompaichear a chum a Chreidhidh. Ma ghabhas neach air bith, (dh'iarras cunntas is meana mu'n chaochla a- tharrachaidh a rinneadh, ann an earr- tunn air bith do'n Leabhar Urnuigh), saothair an Leabhar so a choimeas ris an aon roi' so; cha teagamh leinn nach faicear leis gu soilleir aobhar an atharrachaidh.
Agus ar dhuinn mar so dicheal a dheanadh air coi'lionadh ar dleasnais ann sa chuis chudthromaich so, mar ann am fianuis Dhe agus gu dearbhadh ar treibhdhireas (cho fad 's a bha 'nar comas;) do chogaisibh nan uile dha- oine ; ged a ta ììos aguinn gu bheil e ' neo-chomasach (na leithid do chaochla bheachdan, cailean agus leth-pairtean mar a ta anns an t-saoghal) na h-uile thoileachadh ; agus cha'n urrainn earb- sa bhi aguinn gu'm biodh daoine do spiorad ceannaii'ceach, diorasach agus raginhuinealach air an toileachadh le ni sam bith is urrainear a dheanadh 'san doigh so, mar a deanar leo fein e : gidheadh tha deadh dhochas aguinn gum bi a ni a ta so air thairgse, agu» a bha le mor' dhicheal air bhreithnea- chadh agus air a dhearbhadh le Co' chruinneach Mhinisteirean na da riogbachd, air gabhail ris mar an ceud*- na agus air a mholadh, le uile Mhio Stuama, siochail, agus glan chogais- each Eaglais Shasnnn.
Mu Sheirbheis na h-Eaglaise. CHA robh ni air bith riabh air a dheilbh, no co barranntach air a Bhuidhicheadli le gliocas duine nach. d' thainig tre aimsir gu bhi air a thruailleadh ; mar, a measg nithibh eile, mar dh' fhaodas sinn f haicinn gu soilleir thaobh Urnuighibh coitchionn na Baglaise d'an gairmear gu cu- manta Seirbheis Dhiadhaidh. Bha'n ceud tus agus an stèidh aca maith, ma 's miann ]e neach a rannsachadh bho na priomh Atharaichibh, gheibh e mach nach robh iad air an orduchadh ach bho dheadh run, agus airson mor leasachaidh diadhachd. Oir dh' or- duich iad a chuis na leithid do dhoigh 's gu'm biodh am Biobul uile (no chuid bu mhotha dheth) air a leughadh thairis aon uair 's a bhUadhna ; a' runachadh leis a sinn, gu'm biodh a Chleir agus gu h-araid leithid 's a bha na Ministeirean ann an coi'thionlaibh (le leubhadh gu trie, agus a breithnea- chadh air focal Dhe) gu'n gluaiste iad chum diadhachd, agus gu'm biodh iad na bu ro chomasaiche air earrail agus teagasg fallain a thoirt do dhream eile, agus gu iadsan a bhitheadh na'n eas- cairdean do'n fhirinn a bhreugnach adh; agus a thuillidh air a so, gu'm faodadh an sluagh (tre eisdeachd na Scriobhtuirean Naomh air an leughadh gachla 'san Eaglais) a ghna' meudach- adh ni's motha agus ni's motha ann an eolas De agus a bhi gu mor air am beothachadh le fior ghradh a Chreid- idh-san.
Ach air do mhoran bhliadhnaibh dol seachad, 's amhuil a bha'n t-ordugh diadhaidh agus ciatach so air atharr- achadh, air a bhristeadh, agus air a dhearmad, le suidheachadh a stigh Eachdraidhean neo-chinnteach agus Sgialachdan, maille ri Freagairt-tean, Rannan, ach-aithrris dhiomhain Co'- chuimhneachain agus riaghailtean Sheanadhan, air chor 's gu cumanta nuair thoisichfe ri Leabhar air bith do'n Bhiobul an deigh do thri no cei- thir do Chaibteil a bhi air an leughadh, bha chuid eile air a fagail gun leughadh. Agus 's an doigh so blia Leabhar Isaiah ri toiseachadh anns an Teachd, agus Leabhar a Ghineulalch ann a Septuagesima ; ach cha d'rinn- eadh ach toiseachadh gun an leughadh uile trompa: Air an doigh cheudna ghnathaicheadh Leabhraichean eile do'n Scriobtur naomh. Agus os barr, do bhrigh gu'm bu-mhiann leis an N. Pol gu'n reachadh a leithid do chainnt a labhairt 'san Eaglais 'sa thuigeadh a' sluagh agus leis am faigheadh iad tairbhe an ni cheudna. Bha an t- seirbheis ann an Eaglais so Shasunn, air a loughjidh iad mhoran bhliadhna- chan ann an Laidinn do'n phobuU cainntnach do thuig iad; air chor 's gu'n cual iad le'n cluasaibh a mhain, agus cha robh an cridhe, an Spiorad no an inntinn air an teagasg leis. Bharr air a so, ge' do roinn na Seann. Athairichean na Sailm na seachd earr- unnan agus ghairmendh do gach aon diubh Nocturn ;* Nis bho chionn ghoirid cha'n eile ach beagan dhiuljh air an leughadh gach la, agus a chuid eile gu buileach air an dearmad. Os barr, be'n taobhar a bheir so, aireamh agus cruas nan Righailtean d'an goi- r ear am Pie\ agus atharrachaibh hon'or na Seirbheis, air chor 's gu'n robh a chuis CO cruaidh agus co iomlubach ann a sealltuiun a mhain air a son, air chor 's gu'n robh tuilleadh saothair iomad uair air faotuinn a mach ciod bu choir a bhi air a leughadh, na leughadh 'nuair a gheibhte a mach e.
Uime sin, aii' do na mi-dheisealach- dan sin a bhi air an toirt fa'near, tha sios anns an Leabhar so leithid do Riaghailt, leis am bi chuis sin air a* leasac ladh. Agus air sondeisealachd arms a gbnothach so, tha Miosachan air a scriobhadh air son an aobhair sin, a tha soilleir agus fm-asta ri bhi air a thuigsinn; anns a bheil air a nochdadh (urad 'sa dh'f haodas a bhi) leughadh an Scriobtuir naoimh, chum gu'n deanar na h-uile nithe ann an ordugh, gun bhi-isteadh aon chuid bho chuid eile dheth. Air an aobhar so tha Laoidhean, Freagairtean, Guiilh- earrunnan agus a leithid sin do nithibh agus a bhrist ghna' chursa leughaidh a Scriobtur air an gearradh as.
Gidheadh do bhrigh nach robh doigh leasachaidh air, ach an eiginn, feum- aidh cuid do Riaghailtean a bhi aun : uime sin tha Riaghailtean araid air an cuir a sios; agus mar a tha aid aineamh an aireamh, 's amhuil a ta iad soilleir agus furasta ra'n tuigsinn. Air chor 's gu bheil agaibh an so Riaghailt airson Urnuigh, agus airson leughadh a' Scriobtuir naoimh, ro thaitneach, a reir inntinn agus run nan seann Atha- irichean, agus moran ni's tarbhaiche agus na's goireasaiche na bha air an guathachadh roi so. Tha e ni's ro tliarbhaiche, chionn gu bheil moran d'j nithiljh air am fagail mach, cuid diu' bha mearrachdach, cuidmi-chinn- teach agus cuid diomhain agus saobh- chrabhaeh ; agus ni air bith cha'n eil air orduchadh gu bhi air a leughadh, ach Focal fior ghlan Dhe, na' Scriob- tuireau naomh, neo nithe a ta d'an reir; agus sin 'na leithid do Chainnt agus do Riaghailt 's a ta ro fhurasta agus soilleir airson an tuigsinn araon leis an Luchd-leughaidli agus leis an Luchd-eisdenchd. Tha e i;i's goireas- aiche araon airson giorad agus reid- head na Riaghailt, agus airson gu bheil na Riaghailtean aineamli agus furasta.
* Ghairmeadh sin din bho na priomh Chriosdainnean le bi ag eiridh 'san oidhche gu'n leabadh. t Riaghailtean ro dhuilich ri'n tuigsinn.
Agus do bhrigh 's gu'n robh roi' so mor mliùthadh ann an radh agus a seinn arms na h-Eaglaisibh 's an Rio- ghachd SO; cuid a leantuinn Cleach.- dadh Shalisburi, cuid Doigh Hereford, cuid eile Doigh Bhamjor, cuid lioigh lore, agus cuid eile cleacbdadh doigh Lincoln : nis bbo'n am so mach cha bhi aig an Rioghachd uile ach an t-aon doigh,
Agus do bbrigh 's nach urrainnear ni sam bith 'a dheanadh co soilleir 's nach faod teagamh tachairt ann an cleachdadh agus ann an gnarhachadh an ni cheadna ; chum an uile leithidh sin do eu coltais a reiteachadh (ma dh'eireas aon air bith d'an leithid) agus airson mineachaidh na h-uile theagamh thaobh an doigh, cionnas a ta e r'a thuigsinn, r'a dheanadh no ri chleachdadh seadh na nithe a ta 'san Leabhar so ; a' chuideachd a chuireas an teagamh e, no ghabhas an eugsha- mhladh e, theid iad air ball gu Easbuig na Sgireachd, agus gabhaidh esan doigh le gh'iocas air reiteachadh agus mineachadh an ni cheudna, air chor 's nach bi an doigh an aghaidh ni air bith tha 's an Leabhar. Agus ma bhios Easbuig na Sgireachd ann an teagamh, an sin faodaidh e cuir airson a mhineachaidh chum an Ard-Easbuig. GED' tha na h-uile nithe orduichte ri bhi air an leugbadh agus air a' seinn 'san Eaglais annt^a Chaimif Ckumanfa, chum leis a sin gu'm bi an CO thional air afoghlum : gidheadh 'nuair a tha daoine a leughadh na h- Urnuigh Mhaidne agus Fheasgair gu diomhair, faodaidh iad an leugiiadh ann an cainnt air bith a thuigeas iad fein.
Agus tha aig na h-uile Shagairtean agus agus Dheaconan ri leusrhadh na h-Urnuigh Mhaidne ag-us Fueasgair gach la gu follaiseach no gu diomhair, mar a bacar iad le tinneas no aobhar araid eile.
Agus a' Ministeir a ta frithealadh anus na h-uile Sgireachd. Eaglais no Tigh-aor-aidh, air dhà bhi aig a dhach- aidh, agus mar h-eil e air dhoigh eile gu reusanta air a' bhacadh, leugh- aidh e an ni ceudna ann an Eaglais na Sgireachd no 's an Tigh-aoraidh 'sa bheil e frithealadh, agus bheir e fainear gn'm. buailear an Clag an am iomch- aidh mu'n toisich e, chum gu'n d'thig a smagh gu eisde^ichd Focal Dhe, agus gu ui-nuigh maille ris-an.

cbor's nach urrainn ni sam bith an tuileachadh, ach an ni sin a ta nuadh ; chuiinacas iomchaidh nach gabhta a leithid do shuim cionnas a bhiodb aon chuideachd dhiubh sin air an toil- eachadb no air an riaruchadb, ach cionnas a bhiodh Dia air a thoileach- adh, air chor's gu'm bitheadh e na thairbh doibh maraon. Agnis fadhe- oidh, an eagal gu'm faigheadh neach air bith oilbheum, no aig a bheil deagh aobhar gu bbi air a thoileachadh, uime sin tha aobbaran araid air an cur a sios, c'arson a ta cuid do Dheas- ghnathan cleachdta air an treigsinn agus cuid eile air an cumail agus air an gleidbeadh f hathast.
Chuireadhas do chuid dbiu', chionn gu'n dh'f has iad ro lionar agus anabar- rach mor anns na laithibh deireanach so, air chor 's gu'n robb aneallach dhiu' do-iomchair; ma bheil an Naomh Augustine ri gearran na latha fein, gu'n do chinn iad chum a leithid do dh'- aireamh 's gu'n robh staid an t-sluaigh Chriosdail arm an cor, a thaobh na cuise-sin, na bu mheasa dheth na cor nan ludhach. Agus chomhairlich e gu'm biodh a leithid sin do chtiing agus a dh'eallaich air an toirt air falbh, mar a f hreagaradh an t-àm air a dhea- narih gu siochail. Ach ciod a theireadh an Naomh Augustine, na faiceadh e na Deasghnathan a bha air an cleachdadh 'sna laithibh a chaidh seachad, nar' measg-ne, agus ris nach robh aireamh na chaidh a chleachdadh 'na latha-san 1*1 bhi air an coimeas? Mar so bha anabarrachd lionar ar Deasghnathan CO mor, agus iomadaidh dhiu' co dor- cha, 's gu'n do chuir iadtuilleadh amh- laidh agus dorchadais air sochairean Chriosd na rinn iad f hoillseachad agus a thaisbeineadh dhuinn. Agus a bharr air a so. cha'n eil Soisgeul Chriosd 'na Lagh Deasghnathach (mar a bha moran do Lagh Mhaois) ach is dia- dhachd e chum seirbheis a dhean- adh do Dhia, cha'n ann an daorsa choltais no na sgail, ach ann a saors - ainn a' Spioraid; air bhi dhuinn a mhain toiUchte leis na Deasghnathan sin a ta tarbhach airson ordugh ciat- ach agus Foghlum diadhaidh, agus a leithid 's a ta iomchaidh gu dusgadh marbh-inntiim duine gu cuimhneach- adh air a dhleasnas do Dhia, gu nochd- adh dha, cuid do bhrigh shonraichte agus araid leis a' faodadh e bhi air fhoghlum. Os barr, be 'n t-aobhar bu chudthromaiche, gu'n do chuireadh as Deasghnathan araid, gu'n robh iad ann an cuid co mor air a' mighnath- achadh le doille gliiosreagach dhaoine aineolach agus neo-fhoghluimte, agus ann an cuid eile airson gionach do- riaruichto a leithid do shluagh 'sa dh'iarr airson an saimh fern, na bu mho na airson gloir Dhe; na mi-ghnath achinnean sin cha b'urrainnear gu h-
iomlan an toirt air falbh, agus dh'fhan cuid dhiu' fhathast.
Ach a nise thaolah nam pearsaibh sin math dh'fhaoidte leis am faighear oilbheum, airson gu bheil cuid do na seann Deasghnathan air an cumail fhathast; ma bheir iad fainear gu bheil e neo-chomhasach Ordugh air bith no Foghlum siochail a ghleidh- eadh 'san Eaglais as eugais cuid do Dheasghnathan, bheir iad gu furasta fainear, fior aobhar air leasachadh am breitheanais. Agus ma tha iad ag smuainteachadh na ghiiothach mor gu bheil aon air bith do'n t-seann f heo- ghainn air an cumail, ach gu b'fhearr leo na h-uile bhi aii" an deilbh as ùr. A' sin, tha'n leithid sin do dhaoine ag aideachadh gu'n dleasadh cuid do Dheasghnathan freagrach a bhi air an cumail, agus gu cinnteach far a' faod an t-seann fheoghainn a bhi gu h- iomchaidh air an cleachdadh, a sin cha'n uiTainn doibh an t-seann fheo- ghain a choireacbadh a mhain airson an aoise, gu'n an aimideachd fein a bhrath ann a foill. Oir na leithid do ] chor's ann bu choir dhoibh urram na bu mho thabhaii't doibh airson an aoise, ma 's e 's gu'n aidich siad iad fein ni's deigh eile airson aonachd agus comh-reite, na tha iad airson ur- ghnathachadh agus nuadh-innleachd- an, nithe a ta ghna' ri bhi air a seach- nadh, air meud da bheil iad a rimach- adh fior Chreideamh Chriosd a nochd- adh. Os barr cha'n eil ceart aobhar sam bith aig an leithid sin do dhaoine bhi diombach airson na'n Deasghnath- an a chaidh a chumail. Airson an feoghainn a thugadh air falbh, agus bha air a mi-ghnatbachadh gu mor bha iad nan eire gun aobhar air cogais dhaoine; ach a chuid a ghleidheadh dhiu' tha iad a chum foghluim agus ordugh agus (air fior aobbaran) dh fhaodas a bhi air an atharachadh agus air an caochladh, agus uime sin cha'n eil iad ri bhi air a' meas comh-ionnan ri Lagh Dhe. Agus a thuilleadh air a so, cha'n eil iad aon chuid na'n Deas- ghnathan dorcha no do-thuigseach, ach air an nochdadh 'na leithid do dhoigh 's gu faod na h-uile duine thuigsinn ciod 's brigh dhoibh, agus ciod" is feum doibh. Air chor 's nach eil e coltach gu'm mighnàthaichar iad 'san linn ri teachd, mar a rinneadh 'san linn a chaidh seachad. Agus 'nar dcanadas so cha'n eil sinn a diteadh Cinnich air bi eile, no a' scoladh ni sam bith dhoibh ach d'ar sluagh fein a mhain ; Oir tha sinn a smuainteach- adh na ni iomchaidh gu'n dleasadh do na h-uile Duthaich a leithid a Dheas- ghnathan a chleachdadh, mar a smuainticheas iad is fearr chum nochd- adh a mach onair agus gloir Dhe, agtis a chum a sluagh irisleachadh gu caithe- beatha 's ro dhiadhaidh agus is foii-te.

An Riaghailt anns am bheil Leahhar nan Salm air orduchadh gu hhi air a leughadh.
BITHIBH Leabhar nan Salm air a leughadh thau-is aon uair 'sa mhios, mar a ta e air ordufhadh. araon air son Fmuigh Mhaidne agus Fheas- gair. Ach ann san Fhaoilleach lengh- ar e'mhain gus an t-ochdamh, no an naoidheamh la f hichead do 'n Mhios.
Anns na Miosaibh sin anns am bheil aon La deng 'ar fhichead, tha e ordui- chte gum bi na Sailm a chaidh a leugh- adh air an deicheamh La fichead, air an leughadh air an aon la deug air fhichead.
Agus do bhrigh gum bheil an 119
Salm air a roinn na dha chuibhrinn fhicheadh; dh'orduicheadh nach leughar thair ceithir no cuig do na cuibhrinnean sin comhladh.
Agus aig deireadh gach Salm, co mhaith agus aig deireadh gach CLiibh- rinn do'n 119 Salm, therrear a ghloir Laoidh so.
Qloir do'n Athair, agus do'n 2Ihac : agus do' n Spiorad I^aomh;
Mar a hha air tus, a ta nis agus a hhitheas gu, brath : saoghal gun chrioch. Amen.
An Riaghailt anns am bheil a chuid eile do'n Scriobtur naomh air orduchadh gu hhi air a leughadh.
THA cheud Leasan aig Urnuigh na Maidne agus an Fheasgair r'a thabhairt as an t'seann Tiomna ; air dhoigh is gum bi a chuid is mo dheth air a leughadh aon uair sa Bhliadhna, mar a ta am miosachan ag orduchadh.
Tha an dara Leasan r'a thabhairt bho'n Tiomna Xuadh ; ni as coir a leughadh gu riaghailteach thairis tri uairibh sa Bhliadhna, a bhar air na Litrichibh agus na Soisgeil ; ach Leabhar an Fhoillsicheadh tha r'a leughadh au- Laithibh Feisdean son- ruichte.
Chum fios fhaotuinn air na Leasain is coir a leughadh gach la, amhairc air
son an La ann sa Mhiosachan. Tha na Leasain a bhuineas do na feisdean a ta ag athrachadh agus na feisde- neoghluaiste, air am faotuinn ann 'sna claii- leasain shonruichte.
'Nuair a ta Sailm agus Leasain shon- ruichte air an orduchadh; leigear na sailm agus na Leasain ghnathaichte seachad.
Thoir fainear, gu'm foghainn an Ur- nuigh, an Litir, agus an Soisgeul a dh'orduicheadh air na Laithibh Domh- naich, fad na 'Seachdain na dheigh, 'nuair nach, eU atharachadh so air aithne.

DEARLY beloved brethren,
the Scripture moveth us
in sundry places to acknowledge
and confess our manifold sins
and wickedness ; and that we
should not dissemble nor cloke
them before the face of Al-
mighty God our heavenlj'- Fa-
ther; but confess them with an
humble, lowly, penitent, and
obedient heart ; to the end that
we may obtain forgiveness of
the same, by his infinite good-
ness and mercy. And although

to acknowledge our sins before
God ; yet ought we most chielly
so to do, when we assemble and
meet together to render thanks
for the great benefits that we
have received at his hands, to
set forth his most worthy praise,
to hear his most holy Word,
and to ask those things which
are requisite and necessary, as

ALMIGHTY and most mer-

and strayed from thy ways like
lost sheep. We have followed
too much the devices and desires
of our own hearts. We have
offended against thy holy laws.
We have left undone those things
which we ought to have done ;
And we have done those things
which we ought not to have
done ; And there is no health in
us. But thou, O Lord, have
mercy upon us, miserable of-
fenders. Spare thou them, O
God, which confess their fliults.
Restore thou them that are
penitent; According to thy
promises declared unto man-
kind in Christ Jesu our Lord.
And grant, O most merciful
Father, for his sake; That we
may hereafter live a godly,
righteous, and sober life, To

And although we ought at all times humbly to acknow- ledge our sins before God ; yet ought we most chiefly so to do when we assemble and meet together to render thanks for the great benefits that we have received at his bands, to set forth his most worthy praise, to bear his most holy Word, and to ask those things which are requisite and necessary, as well for the body as the soul. Where- fore I pray and beseech you, as many as are here present, to accompany me with a pure heart, and bumble voice, unto the throne of the heavenly grace, saying after me : ^ A general Confession, to be said of the whole Congreoaiion, after Uie Minii<ter, all kneeling.

Wherefore let us beseech him to grant us true repent- ance, and his holy Spirit ; that those things may please him, which we do at this present ; and that the rest of our life hereafter may be pure and holy ; so that at the last we may come to his eternal joy ;

Ach mar gleidh gaeh reach an Creidimh so gu h-iomlan gun truailleadh : gun teagamh theid e mugha gu siorruidh. Agus 's e so an Creidimh Coit- chionn : Gu'n aoramaid aon Dia ann an Trionaid, agus Trionaid, aim an aon ach d ; Gun bhi 'g amaluadh na Pear- sanna : no ag rionn an Nadair. Oir a ta aon Phearsa do'n Ath- air, Pearsaeile do'n Mhac : agus Pearsa eile do'n Spiorad Naomh. Ach Diadhachd an Athar, an Mhic, agus an Spioraid Naoimh is aon i uile : an Gloir co-ionnan, am Mòrachd co-shiorruidh. Mar a ta an t-Athair, mar sin a ta Mac : agus mar sin a ta an Spiorad Naomh. An t-Athair gun chruthachadh, am ^lac gun cliruthachadh : agus an Spiorad Naomh gun chruth- achadh. 29 Quicmique vult. WHOSOE VE Rwill be saved: before all things it is ne- cessary that he hold theCatholick Faith. Which faith, except every one do keep whole and undetiled : without doubt he shall perish everlastingly. And the Catholick Faith is this : That we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity; Neither confounding the Per- sons : nor dividing the Substance. For there is one Person of the Father, another of the Son : and another of tlie Holy Ghost. But the Godhead of the Fa- ther, of the Sou, and of the Holy Ghost, is all one : the Glory equal, the Majesty co-eternal. Such as the JNather is, such is the Son: and such is the Holy Ghost. The Father uncreate, the Son uncreate : and the Holy Ghost uncreate.

An t-Athair do-thui^sinneach, am Mac do-thuigsinneach : agus an Spiorad Naomh do-thuigsin- neach. An t-Athair siorruidh, am Mac siorruidh : agus an Spiorad Naomh siorruidh. Agus gidheadh cha tri shior- ruidh iad : ach aon siorruidh. Mar an ceudna cha'n 'eil tri do-thuigsinneach, na tri neo- chruthaichte ann : ach aon neo- chruthaichte, agus aon do-thuig- sinneach. Mar an ceudna a ta an t-Athair Uile-chumhachdach, am Mac Uile-chumhachdach : agus an Sjiiorad Naomh Uile-chumh- achdach. Agus gidheadh cha tri Uile- chumhachdaich iad : ach aon Uile-chumhachdach. Mar so is Dia an t-Athair, is Dia am Mac : agus is Dia an Spiorad Naomh ; Agus gidheadh cha tri Dee iad : ach aon Dia. Mar an ceudna is Tighearna an t-Athair, is Tighearna am Mac : agus is Tighearna an Spio- rad Naomh. Agus gidheadh cha tri Tigh- earnan iad : ach aon Tighearna. Oir amhuil mar a ta sinn air arco'-eigneachadh leis an fhirinn Chriosdaii : a dh' aideachadh gu bheil gach pearsa fii leth 'na Dhia agus 'na Thighearna ; Mar sinn a taeair athoirmeasg dhuinn leis an Chreidimh Choit- chionn : a radh, A ta tri Dee, no tri Tighearnan ann. Cha 'n eil an t-Athair air a dhe- anamh o neach : ni mo a ta è air a chruthachadh, no air a ghintinn. A ta am Mac o'n Athair amh- àin : cha 'n ann deanta, no cru- thaichte ach ginte. A ta an Spiorad Naomh o'n A thair agus o'n Mhac : cha'n ann 30 The Father incomprehensible, the Son incomprehensilile : and the Holy Ghost incomprehen- sible. The Father eternal, the Son eternal : and the Holy Ghost eternal. And yet they are not three eternals : but one eternal. As also there are not three incomprehensibles, nor three un- created : but one uncreated, and one incomprehensible. So likewise the Father is Al- mighty, the Son Almighty : and the Holy Ghost Almighty. And yet they are not three Almighties : but one Almighty. So the Father is God, the Son is God : and the Holy Ghost is God. And yet they are not three Gods : but one (jrod. So likewise the Father is Lord, the Son Lord : and the Holy Ghost Lord ; And yet not three Lords : but one Lord. For like as Ave are compelled by the Christian verity : to ac- knowledge every Person by him- self to be God and Lord ; So are we forbidden by the Catholick Religion : to say, There be three Gods, or three Lords. The Father is made of none : neither created, nor begotten. The Son is of the Father alone : not made, nor created, but bei2:otten, The^Holy Ghost is of the Fa- ther, and of the Son : neither

deanta, no cruthaichte, no ginte, acli a teachd. Mar sin a ta aon Athair ann, ni h-ètriAthraichean ; aonMliac;ni h-è tri Mic: aon Spiorad Naomh, ni h-e tri Spioraid Naoimh. Agus anus an Trionaid, so clia 'n 'eil aon roimh no an deigh a cheile : cha'n 'eil aon na's mo no na's lugha 'na cheile ; Acb a ta natri Pearsanna uile co-shiorrnidh le cheile : agus co- ionnan. Mar sin annsnah-uile nithibh, mar a thubhairteadh roimhe : is coir aoradh thoirt do'n Aonachd ann an Trionaidh,agus do'n Trio- naid ann an Aonachd. Dime sin an ti leis an ail bhi air a shabhaladh : feumaidh è smuairiteachadh mar so air an Trionaid. Os-barr, tha e feumail chum slàinte shiorruidh : gu'n creideadh è gu ceait mar an ceudna gu'n do ghabh ar Tighearna Iosa Criosd feoil dhaoine air fein. Oir is è an Creidimh fior, gu'n creid agus gu'n aidich sinn : gu bheil ar Tighearna Iosa Criosd, Mac Dhe, 'na Dhia agus 'na Dhuine ; Dia do nadar an Athar, ginte roimh na saoghail : agus Duine do nadar a Mhathar, a rugadh anns an t-saoghal : Dia iomlan, agus Duine iom- lan, air a dheanamh suas do anam reusanta: agus do fh coil dhaoine; Co-ionnan ris an Athair, a tbaobh a Dhiadhachd: ach na's isle na 'n t-Athair, a thaobh a Dhaoiinachd. An Ti ged tha è 'na Dhia agus 'na Dhuine : gidheadh cha da Chriosd e, ach aon : Aon ; cha'n ann le tiondadh an Diadhachd gu feoil: ach le gabhail na Daonnachd gu Dia ; 31 made, nor created, nor begotten, but proceeding. So there is one Father, not three Fathers ; one Son, not three Sons : one Holy Ghost, not three Holy Ghosts. And in this Trinity none is afore, or alter other : none is greater, or less than another ; But the whole Three Persons are co-eternal together : and co- equal. So that in all things, as is aforesaid : the Unity in Trinity, and the Trinity in Unity, is to be worshipped. He therefore that will be saved : must thus think of the Trinity. Furthermore, it is necessary to everlasting salvation : that he also believe rightly the Incarna- tion of our Lord Jesus Christ. For the right Faith is, that we believe and confess : that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is God and Man ; God, of the Substance of the Father, begotten before the worlds : and ]\Ian, of the Sub- stance of his Mother, born in the world ; Perfect God and perfect Man : of a reasonable soul, and human flesh subsisting; Equal to the Father, as touch- ing his Godhead : and inferior to the Father, as touching his Manhood. Who although he be God and Man : yet he is not two, but one Christ ; One ; not by conversion of the Godhead into flesh : but by taking of the Manhood into Godj
AN LAOIDH-DHIANN Na aon gu iomlan ; cha'n ann le amaluadh nadair ; ach le aon- achd Pearsa. Oir mar a ta an t-anam reus- anta agus an fheoil 'nan aon duine : mar sin tha Dia agus duine 'nan aon Chriosd : Neach a dh' fhuiling air son ar sabhaladh : a chaidli sios do dh' ifrinn, a dh' èirich a ris air an treas la o na mairbh. Chaidh e suas gu neamh, a ta è 'na shuidh air deas laimh an Ath- ar, Dia Uile-chumhachdach : as an sin thig è thoirt breth air na beothaibh agus air na mairbh. Aigatbighinn,eirigh nab uile dhaoine lis le'n cuirp : agus bheir iad cunntas air son an oibribh. Agus iadsan a rinn math, theid iad gu beatha shiorruidh : agus iadsan a rin olc, gu teine bith- bhuan. 'S è soanCreidimhCoÌLcbionn : mar creid duine ègudiongmhalta, cha 'bhi è air a shabhaladh. Gloir do'n Athair, agus do'n Mhac; agus do'n SpioradNaomh; Mar bha air tus, a ta nis, agus a bbitheas gu brath: saoghal gun chrioch. Amen. One altogether ; not by con- fusion of Substance : but by unity of Person. For as the reasonable soul and flesh is one man : so God and Man is one Christ : Who suffered for our salva- tion : descended into hell, rose again tbe third day from the dead. He ascended into heaven ; he sitteth on the right hand of the Father, God Almighty : from whence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead. At whose coming all men shall rise again with their bodies: and shall give account fur their own works. But they that have done good, shall go into life everlasting : and they that have done evil, into everlasting fire. This is the^Catholick Faith: which except a man believe faithfully, he cannot be saved. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son : and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be : world without end. Amen.

Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us, to the glory of God. Now I say, that Jesus Christ was a minister of tbe circumcision for tbe truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers : And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy ; as it is written. For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gen- tiles, and sing unto thy Name. And again he saith. Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people. And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles, and laud him, all ye people. And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles, in him shall the Gentiles trust.

THIS is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him. Who art thou ? And he confessed, and denied not ; but confessed, I am not the Christ. And they asked him, What then ? Art thou Elias ? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that ])rophet ? And he answered. No. Then said they unto him. Who art thou ? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. AVhat saj^est thou of thyself .^ He said, I am the voice of one cry- ing in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias. And they which were sent were of the Pharisees. And they asked him, and said unto him, Why bap- tizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet.'^ John answered them, saying, I baptize with water : but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not ; He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose. These things were done in Bethabara, beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing. The Nativity of our Lord, or the Birth-day of CRB 1ST, com- monly called Christmas-day.

For unto which of the angels said be at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee ? And again, I wnll be to bim a Father, and he shall be to me a Son ? And again, when he bringetb in the first- begotten into the world, he saith. And let all the angels of God worship him.

The Gospel. St. John i. 1. IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him ; and without him was not anj- thing made that was made. In him was life ; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness ; and the darkness comprehended it not. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that Cometh into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as re- ceived him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name : which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

JES lo The Gospel. St. John xxi. 1,0, ESUS said unto Peter, Fol- ow me. Then Peter, turn- ing about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following, which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee ? Peter seeing him, saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do.^ Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he ÌAxry till I come, what is that to thee.^ follow thou me. Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, That that disciple should not die : yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die ; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things : and we know that his testimony is true. And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not con- tain the books that should be written.

THE birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise : When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Gho.st. Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privil^^ But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife ; for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost : And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS ; for he shall save his people from their sins. (Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel; which being interpreted, is, God with us.)

NOW his parents went to Je- rusalem every year at the feast of the passover. And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem, after the custom of the feast. And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it. But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day's journey ; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance. And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seek- ing him. And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions. And all that heard him were astonished at his un- derstanding and answers. And when they saw him, they were amazed: ind his mother said unto him.

BEHOLD, what manner of love the Father hath be- stowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God : therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God ; and it doth not yet appear what we shall be : but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him ; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself even as he is pure. Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law ; for sin is the transgression of the law. And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins ; and in him is no sin. Whosoever abideth in him sin- neth not : whosoever sinneth, hath not seen him, neither known him. Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righte- ous even as he is righteous. He that committeth sin, is of the devil ; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might de- stroy the works of the devil. Tlìe Sunday called Septuagesima. An Soispeul. N. Mhatth. xxiv. 23.

So when even was come, the lord of the vinej'^ard saith unto his steward. Call the labourers, and give them their hire, be- ginning from the last unto the first. And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny. Bat when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more ; and they likewise received every man a penny. And when they had received it, they murmured against the good man of the house, saying. These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day. But lio answered one of them, and said. Friend, I do thee no wrong : didst not thou agree with me for a penny ? Take that thine is, and go thy way : I will give unto this last even as unto thee. Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own ? Is thine eye evil, because I am good ? So the last shall be first, and the first last : for many be called, but few chosen.

St. Luke viii. 4. WHEN much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable : A sower went out to sow his seed : and as he sowed, some fell by the way-side ; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it. And some fell upon a rock ; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture. And some fell among thorns ; and the thorns sprang up wdth it, and choked it. And others fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundred- fold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be ? And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God : but to others in parables ; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

Those by the way-side are they that hear; then Cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. They on the rock are they, which, when the}' hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believ^e, and in time of temptation fall away. And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and plea- sures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. But that on the good ground are they, which, in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

And though I have the gift of pro- phecy, and understand all m3's- teries, and all knowledge ; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am no- thing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burnsd, and have not charity, it profiteth me no- thing. Charity sutfereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not ; charit}'- vaunteth not it- self, is not puffed up, doth not behave itself unseemly, seek- eth not lier own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil ; re- joiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth ; beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Charity never faileth : but whether there be prophe- cies, they shall fail ; whether there be tongues, they shall cease ; whether there be know- ledge, it shall vanish away. For we know in part, and we pro- phes}' in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done awa3\ When I was a child, I spake as a child, I un- derstood as a child, 1 thought as a child ; but when I be- came a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face : now 1 know in part ; but then shall 1 know even as also I am known. And now abideth faith, hope, charity.

For he sball be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on : and they shall scourge him, and put him to death : and the third day he shall rise again. And they understood none of these things : and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken. And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way-side begging : and hearing the multi- tude pass by, he asked what it meant. And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by. And he cried, saying, Jesus, tbou son of David, have mercy on me. And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more. Thou son of David, have mercy on me. And Jesus stood, and com- manded him to be brought unto him : and when he was come , near, be asked him, saying, I What wilt thou that I should do unto thee ? And he said, Lord, 1 that I may receive my sight. AsJi - Wedn esday. earna, rai dh' faotalnn mo radh- airc. Agus thubhairt Iosa ris, Gabli do radharc : shlanuich do clireidimh thu.

For this is the will of God, even your sancti- fication, that ye should abstain from fornication ; that every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sancti- firation and honour; not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God ; that no man go be- yond and defraud his brother in any matter; because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have fore- warned you, and testified.

But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and be- sought him, saying, Send her away ; for she crieth after us. But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Then came she and worship- ped him, saying. Lord, help me. But he answered and said. It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs. And she said, Truth, Lord ; yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their master's table. Then Je- sus answered and said unto her, woman, great is thy faith : be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very- hour. The Third Sunday in Lent. The Collect.

And it came to pass, wben tbe devil was gone out, tbe dumb spake ; and tbe people won- dered. But some of tbem said, He castetb out devils tbrough Beelzebub, tbe cbief of the devils. And otbers, tempting bim, sougbt of bim a sign from beaven.

If Sa- tan also be divided against him- self, bow sball his kingdom stand ? because ye say, that I cast out devils tbrough Beelze- bub. And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out.^^ there- fore sball they be your judges. But if 1 with tbe linger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you. When a strong man armed keepeth his pa- lace, his goods are in peace ; but when a stronger than he sball come upon him, and over- come him, he taketh irom him all his armour wherein he trust- ed, and divideth his spoils. He that is not with me is a- gainst me : and be that ga- tbereth not with me scattereth. Wben the unclean sjurit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest ; and tinding none, be saith, I Avill return unto my house whence I came out.

But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas. Pilate saith unto them. What shall I do then with Jesus, which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified. And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified. When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the ' multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person : see ye to it. Then answered all the people, and said. His blood be on us, and on our children. Then released he Barabbas unto Ì them: and when he had scourged i Jesus, he delivered him to be i crucified. Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the I common hall, and gathered unto [ him the whole band of soldiers, ! And they stripped him, and put j on him a scarlet robe. And when they had platted a crown I of thorns, they put it upon his ! head, and a reed in his right hand : and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying. Hail, King of the Jews! And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head. And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him. And Sunday next lefore Easter, tliu, a Rigb nan ludliacli.

And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, A place of a scull, they gave him vine- gar to drink mingled with gall : and when be had tasted thereof, be would not drink. And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots ; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots. And sitting down, they watched him there ; and set up over his bead this accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS. Then were there two thieves crucified with him ; one on the right hand, and another on the left. And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads, and saying. Thou that destroy est the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross. Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said, He saved others, himself he cannot save. If be be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him. He trusted in God ; let him deliver him now, if be will have him : for he said, I am the Son of God. The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth. Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour. And about the ninth hour Jesus ci-ied with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sahachthani / Daìliiain roìmJi an CJiaisg. aige dLa : oir thubhairt e, Is mise Mac Dhe.

Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias. And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink. The rest said. Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him. Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom ; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; and the graves were opened ; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, and came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. Now when the cen- turion, and they tbat were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

And 1 looked, and there was none to help ; and I wondered that there was none to uphold : therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me, and my fury it upheld me. And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.

For he said. Sure- ly they are my people, children that will not lie : so he was their Saviour. In all their af- fliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them : in his love, and in his pity, he redeemed them, and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.

As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the Lord caused him to rest : so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a gloiious Name. Look down from heaven, and be- hold from the habitation of thy holiness, and of tby glory: where is tby zeal, and tb}^ strength, the sounding of tby bowels, and of thy mercies towards me? Are they restrained? Doubt- less thou art our Father, though Abrabam be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not : Thou, O Lord, art our Father, our Eedeemer, thy Name is from everlasting. O Lord, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways ? and hardened our hearts from thy fear ? Re- turn for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance. The ! people of thy holiness have pos- sessed it but a little while : our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary. We are thine : thou never barest rule overthem; they were not called by thy Name. The Gospel. St. Mark xiv. 1.

And be- ing in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of oint- ment of spikenard, very preci- ous ; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head. And there were some that had indig- nation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made ? for it misrht have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor : and they murmured against her. And Jesus said. Let her alone ; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me : for ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good ; but me ye have not always. She hath done what she could ; she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying. Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this Gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memo- rial of her. And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests to betra}' him unto them. And when they heard it they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him. And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him. Where wilt thou that we go and prepare, that thou may- est eat the passover ?

And his disciples went forth, and came into tbe city, and found as he had said unto them : and they made rea- dy the passover. And in the evening he cometb with the twelve. And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you Avhich eateth with me shall betray me. And they began to be sorrow- ful, and to say unto him, one by one. Is it I ? and another said. Is it I ? And be answered and said unto them, It is one of tbe twelve that dippeth with me in the dish. Tbe Son of Man in- deed goeth, as it is written of him : but wo to that man by whom the Son of Man is be- trayed : good were it for that man if he had never been born. And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat : this is my body. And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them : and the}" all drank of it. And he said unto them. This is my blood of the new- testament, which is shed for many.

And Jesus saith unto tliem, All ye shall be offend- ed because of me this night : for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered. But, after that I am risen, I will go be- fore you into Galilee. But Pe- ter said unto him. Although all shall be offended, yet will not I. And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. But he spake the more vehemently. If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they all. And they came to a place which was named Geth- semane : and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray. And he taketh with him, Peter and James, and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy, and saith unto them. My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death : tarry ye here, and watch. And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and pray- ed, that, i£ it were possible, the hour might pass from him. And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee ; take away this cup from me; nevertheless, not what I will, but what thou wilt. And he Cometh and findeth them sleep- ing, and saith unto Peter, Si- mon, sleepest thou ? couldest not thou watch one hour ?

Rise up, let us go ; lo, be that betray eth me is at band. And immedi- ately, while he yet spake, com- eth Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders. And he that betra^^ed bim had given them a token, saying. Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he ; take bim, and lead bim away safely. And as soon as be was come he goetb straightway to him, and saith, Master, master; and kissed him. And they laid their bands on bim, and took him. And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear. And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out as against a tbief, with swords and witli staves, to take me? I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not : but the Scriptures must be fulfilled. And they all forsook him and fled. And there followed him a certain 3'Oung man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body ; and the young men laid hold on him : and he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.

Agu.s lean Pead- ar e fada uatha, gus an deachaidh e steach do thalla an ard shag- airt : agus bha e 'na shuidhe maille ris na seirbhisich, agus 'ga gharadh ris an teine. Agus dh'- iarr na h-ard shagairt, agus a' chomhairle uile fianuis an agb- aidh losa, chum a chur gu bas ; agus cha d'fhuair iad. Oir rinn mòran dhaoine fianuis bhreige 'na aghaidh, ach cha do choird am fianuis r'a cheile. Agus air do dhream àraidh èirigh, thug iad fianuis bhreige 'na aghaidh, ag radh. Chuala sinne e 'g radh, Leagaidh mi sios anteampull so, a rinneadh le làmhaibh, agus an tri laithibh togaidh mi teampull eile, neo-dheanta le làmhaibh. Agus mar sin fein cha robh am fianuis a teachd r'a cheile.

Agus thug iad 115 off, even into the palace of the high priest ; and he sat with the servants, and warmed him- self at the fire. And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Je- sus to put him to death ; and found none. For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not toge- ther. And there arose certain, and bare false witness agiinst him, saying. We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands. But nei- ther so did their witness agree together. And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing ? what is it which these witness against thee ? But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him. Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed.? And Jesus said, I am ; and ye shall see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses ? ye have heard the blasphemy : what think ye ? And they all con- demned him to be guilty of death. And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to sa}' unto him. Prophesy : and the servants did strike him with the palms of their hands.

And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who bad committed murder in the insur- rection. And the multitude, crying aloud, began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them. But Pilate an- swered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto 3'ou the King of the Jews ? (for he knew tbat the chief priests had delivered him for envy.) But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barab- bas unto tbem. And Pilate answered, and said again unto them. What will ye then tbat I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews ? And they cried out again, Crucify him. Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done ? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him. And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified. And the soldiers led him away into the hall called Pretorium ; and the}^ call to- gether the whole band. And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head ; and began to salute him. Hail, King of the Jews ! And tliey smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and, bowing their knees, worshipped him. And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.

Agus an uair a thainig aseathadh 119 compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alex- ander and Rufus, to bear his cross. And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted. The place of a scull. And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh : but he received it not. And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take. And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. And the super- scription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS. And with him they crucify two thieves ; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left. And the Scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors. And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself, and come down from the cross. Likewise also the chief priests, mocking, said among themselves, wdth the scribes, He saved others ; him- self he cannot save. Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that w-e maj^ see and believe. And they that \vere crucified with him reviled hira. And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eioi, Eloi, lama sahachthanl? which is, being interpreted. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Diciadain an roimJi : Chaisg, uair, bha dorchadas air an talamh uile, gu ruig an naothadh uair.

Hebrews ix. 16. WHERE a testament is, there must also of neces- sity be the death of the testator : For a testament is of force after men are dead ; otherwise it is of no strength at all whilst the tes- tator liveth. Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood. For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people, according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book and all the people, saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath en- joined unto you. Moreover, he i sprinkled with blood both the Wednesday before Easteì\ mar an ceudna an fhuil air a' phailluinn, a^^us air soitliicliibh na naorah-sheirbhis uile.

And almost all things are by tbe law purged with blood ; and without shed- ding of blood is no remission. It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the hea- vens should be purified with these; but the heaven h- things themselves with better sacrifices than these. For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true ; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us : Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others ; for then must he often have suf- fered since the foundation of the world : but now once, in the end of the world hath he ap- peared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judge- ment : so Christ w^as once offered to bear the sins of many ; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time with- out sin, unto salvation.

And they were lad, and covenanted to give him money. And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude. Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we pre- pare ? And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water ; follow him into the house where he entereth in. And ye shall say unto the good man of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I shall eat the passover with my dis- ciples ? And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished : there make ready. And they went, and found as he had said unto them : and they made ready the passover. And when tbe hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer : for I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the king- dom of God. And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said. Take this, and divide it among yourselves : for I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying.

Ach feuch, lamh an ti a bhrathas mise maille rium air a bhord. Agus gu firinneach a ta Mac an duine ag imeachd a reir mar a dh'ord- aicheadh : ach is anaoibhinn do'n duine sin leis am brathare. Agus thoisich iadsan air fiosrachadh eatorra fein, co aca bha gns an ni so a dheanamh. Agus bha mar an ceudna comh-stri eatorra, co aca bu mho a bhiodh. Ach a dubhairt esan riu, A ta aig righ- ribh nan Cinneach tighearnas orra ; agus goirear daoine fial dhiubhsan, aig am bheil ughd- arras orra. Ach na bithibbse mar sin : ach an neach a's mo 'nur measg, biodh e mar an neach a's oige : agus an ti a's airde, mar esan a ta ri frithealadh. Oir co aca 's mo, an ti a shuidheas aig bord,no esan a fhritheileas? nach e 'n ti a shuidheas ; ach a ta mise 'nur measgsa mar f hear-fritheal- aidb.

Agus a dubhairt an Tighearr, A Shimoin, a Shimoin, feuch dh'iarr Satan sibhse, chum bhur criaradh mar chruineachd : Ach ghuidh mise air do shonsa,nach diobradh do chreidimh thu : agus an uair a dh'iompaichear thu, neartuich do bhraithre. Agus a dubhairt esan ris, A Thighearna tha mise 123 G membrance of me. Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you. But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table. And truly the Son of man goeth as it was determined : but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed. And they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing. And there v.-as also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.. And he said unto them, the kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them ; and they that exercise authority upon them are called Benefac- tors. But ye shall not be so : but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger ; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth ? is not he that sit- teth at meat ? but I am among you as he that serveth. Ye are Ihey which have continued with me in my temptation : And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me ; that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat : but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail^not; and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. And he said unto him. Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison and to death. And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day before that thou shalt 2 Diciadian roimJi an CJiaisg. ullamh gu dol maille riut araon clium priosuin, agus a chum bàis.

Agus a dubhairt iad, Cha robh. An sin a dubhairt e riu, Ach a nis ge b'e aig am bheil sporan togadh se e, agus mar an ceudna a mhala : agus an ti aig nach 'eil claidheamh, relceadh e fhalluing, agus ceannaiciieadh e aon.

Agus air dha dol amach, chaidh e, marbu ghnàth leis gu sliabh nan crann ola; agus lean a dheisciobuil e. Agus an uair a thainig e do'n ait, a dubh- airt e riu, Deanaibh urnuigh, chum's nach tuit sibh ann am buaireadh. Agus thairngeadh esan uatha mu thimchioll urchuir chloiche, agus leig se e fein air a ghluinibh, agus rinn e urnuigh. Ag radh, Athair, ma's toil leat, cuir an cupan so tharum : gidh- eadh, na b'i mo thoilse, ach do thoilse gii'n robh deanta. Agus dh'fhoillsicheadh dha aingeal o neamh, ga neartachadh. Agus air bhi dha ann an cruaidh ghleachd anama, rinn e urnuigh ni bu dur- uchdaiche : ngus bha f hallas mar bhraona mora fola a tuiteam sios air an talamh. Agus air dha eirigh o urnuigh, thainig e chum a dheisciobuil, agus fhuair e nan 124 thrice deny that thou knowest me. And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing ? And they said. No- thing. Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip : and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. For I say unto you. That this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors : for the things concerning me have an end. And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough. And he came out, and went, as he was wont to the mount of Olives ; and his disciples also followed him. And when he was at the place, he said unto them. Pray that ye enter not into temptation. And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me : nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed more earnestly : and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, and said unto them. Why sleep ye ? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. And while he yet spake behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him. But Jesus said unto Wednesday before Easter. cndal iad tre thuirse. Agus a dubhairt e riu, Car son a ta sibli 'iiur codal? eiribh, agus dean- aibh uniuigh, chum 's nach tuit sibh anil am buaireadh. Agus an uair a bha e fathast a' labhairt, feuch sluagh, agus dh'imicli esan d'ani b'ainm ludas, aon do'n da f'hear dheug, rompa, agus dliruid e ri h-Iosa, chum a phogadh. Ach a dubhairt Iosa ris, A ludais, am bheil thu le poig a brath Mhic an duine ? Agus an uair a chunn- aic iadsan a bha mu thimchioll- san an ni a bha gu tachairt, a dubhairt iad ris, A Thighearn, ambuail sinnleis a'chlaidheamh? Agus bhuail aon diubh seirbhis- each an ard shagairt,agus ghearr e dheth a chluas dheas. Agus fhreagair Iosa agus a dubhairt e, Fuhiingibh gu so. Agus bhean e r'a chluais, agus shlanuich e i. An sin a dubhairt Iosa ris na h-ard shagartaibh agus ceannard- aibh an teampuill, agus na sean- airibh, a thainig d'a ionnsuidh. An d' thainig sibh a mach le claidhibh agus le bataibh, mar gu b'ann an aghaidh fir reubainn ? 'N uair a bha mi gach la maille ribh 'san teampull, cha do shin sibh a mach bhur lamhan a'm' aghaidh : ach si so bhur n-uairse, agus cumhachd an dorchadais. An sin rug iad air, agus thug iad leo e do thigh an ard shagairt. Agus lean Peadaram fad uaith e. Agus air dhoibh teine fhadadh ann am meadhon an talla, a^w's, suidhe sios maille ri cheile, shuidh Peadar 'nam meadhon. Ach chunnaiccailinn araidh e 'na shuidhe aig an teine, agus airdh'i amharc gu geur air, a dubhairt i, Bha'm fear so mar an ceudna maille ris. Agus dh'aicheadh esan e, ag radh, A bhean, eha'n aithne dhomhe. Agusbeagan'nadheigh sin chunnaic neach eile e, agus a 125 him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? When they who were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword ? And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. And Jesus answered and said. Suffer \& thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him. Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple and the elders, who were come to him. Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves ? When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness. Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off. And when they had kindled a fire in tlfe midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them. But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him. And he denied him, saying, Woman, 1 know him not. And after a lit- tle while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. And about the space of one hour after, another confidently affirmed, saying. Of a truth this fellow also was with him ; for he is a Galilean. And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou say est. And immediately while he yet spake, the cock crew. And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto Diciadain roimh an Chaisg. dubhairt e, 'S ann diubh thusa mar an ceudna. Agus a dubli- iaiit Peadar, A dhuine, cba'n aim. Agus mu thimchioll nine aon uaire 'na dheigh sin, cbuir neach eile an ceill gu teann, ag ràdh,Gu firinueach bha'm fear so mar an ceudnamailleris;oirisGalileache. Agus a dubhairt Peadar, A dhuine, cba'n aithne dbomb ciod a ta thu 'g radh. Agus air ball am feadh a bha e fathast a' labhairt, ghoir an coileach. Agus air tionndadh do'n Tighearn, dli'amhairc e air Peadar; agus cbuimbnich Peadar focal an Tighearna, mar a dubh- airt e ris, Mu'n goir an coileach, aicheadhaidh tu mi tri uairean. Agus chaidh Peadar a mach,agus ghuil e gu goirt. Agus rinn na daoine, a chum losa, fanoid air, 'ga bhualadh. Agus an uair a dh'fholaich lad a shuilean, bhuail iad e, san aghaidli, agus dh'fheor- aich iad deth, ag radh, Dean faidheadaireachd, co e a bhuail thu ? Agus labhair iad moran do nithibh eile gu toibheumach 'na aghaidh. Agus an uair a bha 'n la air teachd, chruinnich seanadh an t-sluaigh, agus na h-ard shag- airt agus na scriobhuichean an ceann a cheile, agus thug iadesan chum an comhairle, Ag radh. An tusa Criosd? innis dhuinn. Agus a dubhairt e riu, Ma dh'innseas mi dhuibh,cha chreid sibh. Agus madh'fheoraicheas mi ni airbith, cha toir sibh freagradh dhomh, agus cha leig sibh as mi. O'n am so bithidh Mac an duine 'na shuidhe air deas laimh cumhachd Dhe. An sin a dubhairt iad uile, An tusa ma seadh Mac Dhe ? Agus a dubhairt e riu, A deir sibhse gur mi. Agus thubhairt iad, Ciod tuilleadh am feum a ta agaitm air fianuis ? oir chuala sinu iein i as a bheul fein. 126 him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And Peter went out, and wept bit- terly. And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him. And when they had blind- folded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee ? And many other things blasphemously spake they against him. And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him unto their council, saying. Art thou the Christ ? tell us. And he said unto them. If I tell you, yQ will not believe: and if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go. Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God. Then said they all. Art thou then the Son of God ? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am. And they said, AVhat need we any further witness ? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth. Thursday hefore Easter.

The Epistle. 1 Cor. xi. 1 7. IN this that I declare unto you, I praise you not ; that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse. For first of all, when ye come toge- ther in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you, and I partly believe it. For there must be also heresies among you, that the}^ who ai'e approved may be made manifest among you. When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper : for in eating every one taketh before other bis own supper ; and one is bungr}', and another is drunken. What, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in.^ or de- spise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not ? What shall I say to you ? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not. For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you. That the Lord Jesus, the same night in which he was betra3'ed, took bread ; and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said. Take, eat ; this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying. This cup is the new tes- tament in my blood : this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remem- brance of me. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. AVherefore, whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the bodv and blood of the Lord.

Ach ceasnaicheadh duine e fein, agus mar sin itheadh e do'n aran so, agus òladh e do'n chùpan so : Oir ge b'e dh'itheas agus a dh'olas gu neo-iorachuidh, tha e 'g itheadh agus ag ol breitheauais dha fein, do bhrigh nach 'eil e a' deanamh aithneadh air corp an Tighearna.

For he that eateth and drink- eth unworthily eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another. And if any man hunger, let him eat at home ; that ye come not toge- ther unto condemnation. And the rest will I set iu order when I come. The Gospel. St. Luke xxiii. 1. THE whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate. And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the na- tion, and forbidding to give tri- bute to Ca3sar, saying. That he himself is Clirist a King. And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews ? And he answered him, and said. Thou sayest it. Tlien said Pi- late to the cliief priests, and to the people, I find no fault in this man.

Agus an ' \iair a chual e gu'm b'ann fo j uachdaranacbd Heroid a bha e, I chuir se e gu Herod, a bha e fein i an Jerusalem 'sna laithibh sin. Agus an uair a ehunnaic Herod losa, bha aoibhnea'^ mor air : oir bha deidh aige re ùine fhada air esan fhaicinn, do bhrigh gu'n cual e mòran uime ; agus bha diiil aige gu 'm faiceadh e miorbhuil eigin air a dheanamh leis. An sin dh' f heoraich e mòran do cheisd- ibhdheth ; achchad'thugefreag- radh sam bith air. Agus sheas na h-àrd shagairt agus na scriobh- aicbean 'ga chasaid gu dian. Ach chuir Herod agus a luchd-cogaidh an neo-mheas e, agus rinn iad I'anoid air, agus an deigh a sgead- achadh 'an eudach dealrach, chuir e air ais gu Pilat e. Agus rinneadh Pilat agus Herod 'nan càirdibh d'a cheile 'san la sin ; oir bha iad roimhe sin ann an naimhdeas r'a cheile. Agus an uair a ghairm Pilat an ceann a cheile na h-àrd shagairt, agus na h-uachdarain, agus an sluagh, A dubhairt e riu. Thug sibh a'm' ionnsuidhs' an duine so, mar neach a ta tionn- dadh an t-sluaigh a thaobh : agus feuch, air dhomh a cheasnachadh ann bhur làthair, cha d'fhuair mi coire air bith san duine so thaobh na'n nithe sin mu'm bheil sibh a' deanamh casaid air: No mar an ceudna Herod : oir chuir mi d'a ionnsuidh sibh ; agus feuch, cha d'rinneadh ni air bith leis toill- tinneach air has. Uime sin, air dhomhsa a smachdachadh, leig- idh mi as e. Oir b'eigin da aon a •leigeadh as doibh air an fheisd. Agus ghlaodh iad amach dh'aon ghuth, ag radh, Beir uainn am 129 G out all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place. When Pi- late heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Gali- lean. And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to He- rod, who himself was also at Jerusalem at that time. And when Herod saw Jesus he was exceeding glad ; for he was de- sirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him ; and he hoped to have seen some mi- racle done by him. Then he questioned with him in many words ; but he answered him nothing. And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehe- mently accused him. And He- rod with his men of war se*t him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pi- late. And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together; for before they were at enmity between themselves. And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests, and the rulers, and the people, said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people : and be- hold, I, having examined him before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him : No, nor yet Herod : for I sent you to him ; and lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him. I will therefore chastise him, and release him. For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast. And they cried out all at once, say- ing.

And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that be might be crucified : and tbe voices of tbem and of the chief priests prevailed.

And be released un- to tbem bim that for sedition and murder was cast into pri- son, whom they had desired ; but be delivered Jesus to their will. And as tbey led bim away, tbey laid bold upon one Simon a Cyrenian, coming out of the countr}', and on bim tbey laid tbe cross, that he might bear it after Jesus. And there followed bim a great com- pany of people, and of women, which also bewailed and la- mented bim. But Jesus, turn- ing untothem, said. Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children. For behold, tbe days are coming, in tbe which tbey shall say. Blessed are tbe barren, and the wombs that never bare, and tbe paps which never gave suck. Then shall the}' begin to say to the mountains. Fall on us ; and to the hills. Cover us.

Then said Jesus, Father, for- give them, for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots. And the people stood beholding ; and the rulers also with them de- rided him, saying, He saved others ; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God. And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offer- ing him vinegar, and saying. If thou be the King of the Jews, save thyself. And a superscrip- tion also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. And one of the malefactors, which were hanged, railed on him, saying, If thou, be Christ, save thyself, and us. But the other ansv/ering rebuked him, saying. Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condem- nation ? And we indeed justly ; for we receive the due reward of our deeds, but this man hath done nothing amiss. And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remem- ber me when thou com est into thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To-day shalt thou be with me in paradise. And it was about the sixth hour : and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. And the sun was darkened, and the vail of the temple was rent in the midst. And when Jesus had cried wdtli a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit : and having said thus, he gave up the [ghost.

THE law, having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of tbe tbings, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continuallv make tbe comers thereunto perfect. For then would they not have ceased to be offered ? because that tbe worshippers once purged should have bad no more conscience of sins.

He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. By the which will we are sanctified, through the ottering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. And every priest standeth daily minister- ing, and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins : But this man, after he had offered one sacri- fice for sins, for ever sat down on the right hand of God ; from henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us : For after that he had said be- fore, This is the covenant that 1 will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them ; and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. Now where remis- sion of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

An sin thainig Iosa mach, agus an crùn droighinn air, agus an f hall- uing phurpuir uime. Agus a deir Pilat riu, Feuch an duine ! Uime 135 the house of God ; let us draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having our I hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let I us hold fast the profession of I our faith without wavering ; (lor ! he is faithful that promi.<ed ;) and let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works : not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is ; b ii exhorting one another : and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. T/te Gospel. St. John xix. 1 . PILATE therefore took Je- sus, and scourged him. And the soldiers platted a crown ot thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purplr- robe, and said. Hail, King of the Jews ! and the}' smote him with their hands. Pilate there- fore went forth again, and saith unto them. Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him. Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pi- late saith unto them, Behold the man ! When the chief priests therefore and oflScers saw him. Di-h-aoine na Ceusda. sin 'n uair a chunuaic na li-ard shagairtagus na maoir e,ghlaodh iad, ag radh, Ceiis e, ceus e. A deir Pilat riu, Gabhaibhse e, agus ceusaibli è : oir clia 'n 'eil mise faotainn coire satn bith ann. Fhreagair na h-Iudhaich e, Tha lagh againne, agus a reir ar lagha-ne is coir a chur gu bàs, air son gu'n d'rinn e Mac Dbe dheth tein. Uime sin an uair a cbuala Pilat a cbainnt sin, bu mhoide bha dh' eagal air ; agus cliaidh e steach a ris a dh' ait a' bhreitlieanais, agus a deir e ri h-Iosa, Cia as duit ? Ach cha d' thug Iosa freagradh air. An sin thubhairt Pilat ris, Nach labbair thu riumsa ? nach 'eil fhios agad gu'm bheil cumhachd agam-sa do cheusadh, agus gu'm bheil cumhachd agani do chur fa sgaoil? Fhreagair losa, Cha bhiodh cumhachd air bith agad a' m' aghaidhse, mur d' thugta dhuit o'n àird e : air an aobhar sin an tia thug mise thairis dhuit, tha aige-san am peacadh a's mo. Agus o sin suas dh' iarr Pilat a chuir fa sgaoil ; ach ghlaodh na h-Iudhaich, ag radh, Ma leigeas tu am fear so fa sgaoil; cha charaid thu do Cheasar : ge b'e neach ata 'gadheanamh fein 'na righ, tha e a' labhairt an aghaidh Cheasair. Uime sin an uair a chuala Pilat a' cbainnt sin, thug e mach losa, agus shuidh e air a' chathair-bhreitheanais amis an ionad d'an goirear an Leac- ùrlair, ach anns an Eabhra, Gabata. Agus b'e la ulluchaidh na caisg e, agus mu thimchioU na seathadh uaire : agus a deir e ris na h-Iudhaich, Feuch bhurrigh. Ach ghlaodh iadsan a mach, Beir uainn, beir uainn, ceus e. A deir Pilat riu, An ceus mi bhur ri^hse? Fhreagair na h-ard shag- airt, Cha'n 'eil righ againne ach 136 they cried out, saying. Crucify him, crucily him, Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucifj' him : for I find no fault in hiui. The Jews answered him. We have a hiw, and by our law he ought to die, be- cause he made himself the Son of God. When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid ; and went again into the judgement-hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou ? But Jesus gave him no answer. Then saith Pilate un- to him, Speakest thou not unto me P knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee ? Jesus answered. Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above : therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin. And from thence- forth Pilate sought to release him : but the Jews cried out, saying. If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend : whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Cajsar. When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgement-seat, in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour : and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King ! But they cried out, Awa}' with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King ? The chief priests answered. We have no king but Ca?sar. Then deliver- ed he him therefore unto them to be crucified : and they took Jesus, and led him away. And Good Friday. Ceasar. An sin air an aobhar sin thug e thairis dhoibh e, gu bhi air a cheusadli.

An sin cheus iad e, agus dithis eile maille ris, fear air gach taobh, agus Iosa 's a mheadhon. Agus scriobh Pilat mar an ceudna tiodal, agus chuir e air a cbrann-cheusaidh e.

An sin thubhairt àrd shagairt na'n ludhacb ri Pilat, Na scriobh, Rigb nan ludhacb, aNh gu'n dubhairt e fein, Is mi Eigb nan ludbach. Fhreagair Pilat, An ni a scriobb mi, scriobh mi e. An sin an uair a cheus na saighdearan losa, ghlac iad a thrusgan, (agus rinn iad ceithir earrainnean, earrainn do gach saighdear,) agus a chota mar an ceudna : agus bha an cota gun f huaigheal, air f higheadh o bhra- igh sios gu h-iomlan. Thubh- airt iad uime sin eatorra fein, Na reubamaid e, ach tilgeamaid croinn air, co aig a bhitheas e : chum gu'n coimhliontadh an scriobtuir, a deir, Roinn iad mo thrusgan eatorra, agus thilg iad croinn air mo bhrat. Air an aobhar sin rinn na saighdearan na nithe so. A nis sheas làimh ri crann-ceusaidh losa, a mhàth- air agus piuthar a mhàthar, Muire bean Chleopliais, agus Muire Magdalen. Uime sin an uair a chunnaic Iosa a mhàthair, agus an deisciobul a b'ionmhuinn 137 he, bearing his cross, went forth into a place called the place of a scull, which is called in the Hebrew, Golgotha : where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst. And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross ; and the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS. This title then read man}' of the Jews : for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city : and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and La- I tin. Then said the chief priests i of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews ; but that he said, 1 am the King of the Jews. Pilate answered, What 1 have written, 1 have written. Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part ; and also his coat : now the coat was without seam, woven from the top through- out. The}' said therefore among themselves. Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be : that the Scripture might be fulfilled, which saith. They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did. Now there stood by the cross of Je- sus, his mother, and his mo- ther's sister, I\Iary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple stand- ing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold th}^ son. Then saith he to the disciple. Behold thy mother. And from that hour that disciple took her unto his Di'li-aoine an Ceusda. ]eis 'na slieasamh a làthair,thubli- airt a r'a mhàthair, A bhean, feucla do mhac ! An sin a deir e ris an deisciobul.

When Jesus therefore bad received the vinegar, be said, It is finished : and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath-day, (for that sabbath-day was an high day,) besought Pilate thfit their legs might be broken, and tbat they might be taken away. Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of tbe first, and of the other which was crucified with him. But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs : but one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came thereout blood and wa- ter. And be that saw it bare record, and his record is true ; and be knoweth that be saith true, that ye might believe.

Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead : so the last error shall be worse than the first.

MEN and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fear- eth God, to 3'ou is the word of this salvation sent. For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath-day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him. And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain. And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre. But God raised him from the dead : and he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people. And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fa- thers, God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that be bath raised up Jesus again ; as it is also written in the second Psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to cor- ruption, be said on this wise, I will give 3'ou the sure mercies of David. Wherefore he saith also in another Psalm, Thou shall not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. For David, after he had served his own ge- neration b}' the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption : 2 Di-mairt ann an seachduin na Chaisg. as^us chimnaic e truaillidheaclicl : Ach an ti a tbog Dia suas, cha'n fhac e truaillidheachd.

I am the door; by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

BELOVED, let us love one another : for love is of God ; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not, knoweth not God ; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only-begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and seni: his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No one hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit. And we have seen, and do testify, that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love ; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God. and God in him. Herein is oar love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgement : because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love ; but perfect love casteth out fear; because fear hath torment. He that feareth, is not made perfect ! in love. AYe love him because j he first loved us.

THERE was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously ever}^ day : and there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, and desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table : moreover, the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom : the rich man also died, and was buried ; and in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar olf, and La- zarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Laza- rus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue ; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy A)i dara Domhnach an deigh na Trionaid. agus ciiir Lasarus, chum 's gu'n turn e bàiT a mheoirann an uisge, agus gu'm fuaraiche motheanga; oir a ta mi air mo ro-phianadh 's an làsair so.

Whosoever hateth his brother is a mur- derer: and 3'e know that no murderer hath eternal lite abid- ^ ing in him. Hereby perceive we I the love of God, because he laid down his life for us : and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him ? My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue ; but in deed and in truth. And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him. For if our heart con- demn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things. Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God. And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. And this is his com- mandment. That we should be- lieve on the Name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us com- mandment. And he that keep- eth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him.

The Gospel St. Luke xiv. 16. A CERTAIN man made a great supper, and bade many ; and sent his servant at supper-time to say to them that were bidden. Come, for all things are now ready. And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it ; I pray thee have me excused. And another said, I kave bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them ; I pra}"- thee have me excused. And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his ser- vant. Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind. And the ser- vant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room. And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the high-ways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. For I say unto you.

Agus fhreagair Simon, 181 ful be courteous ; not render- ing evil for evil, or railing for railing ; but contrariwise bless- ing ; knowing that ye are there- unto called, that ye should in- herit a blessing. For he that will love life, and see good daNs, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile : let him eschew evil, and do good ; let him seek peace, and ensue it. For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their praj^ers : but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil. And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good ? But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye : and be not afraid of their terror, neither be trou- bled ; but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts. The Gospel St. Luke v. 1. IT came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the Word of God, he stood Ì by the lake of Gennesaretli, and ' saw two ships standing by the lake ; but tiie fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. And he entered into one o£ the ships, which was Simon's, and praj-ed him that he would thrust out a little from the land : and he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.

Neither let us commit forni- cation, as some of them com- mitted, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand. Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were de- stroyed of the destroyer.

Where- fore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus ac- cursed ; and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations; but it is the same God which worketh all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom ; to another the word of knowledge b}' the same Spirit ; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit ; to another the working of mi- racles ; to another prophecy ; to another discerning of spirits ; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues : But all these worketh that one and the self-same Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side, and shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee ; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.

For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures ; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the Scriptures; and that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve : after that, he was seen of above five hun- dred brethren at once ; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James ; then of all the Apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. For I am the least of the Apostles, that am not meet to be called an Apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. But by the grace of God I am what I am : and his grace which was bestow- ed upon me Avas not in vain ; but I laboured more abundantly than they all : yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me. Therefore whether it were I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed. The Gofpel. St. Luke xviii. 9. JESUS spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others : Two men went up into the temple to pray ; the one a Pha- risee, and the other a publican.

And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh, with the aiSections and lusts. The Gospel. St. Luke xvii. 11. AND it came to pass, as Jesus went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria, and Galilee. And as be entered into a cer- tain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off". And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. And when he saw them, be said unto them. Go, shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, and fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks ; and he was a Samaritan.

As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised ; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ. For neither they themselves who are cir- cumcised keep the law ; but de- sire to have you circumcised, that thev may glory in vour flesh. But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. For in Christ Jesus neither cir- cumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neigh- bour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.

Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are I bidden, Behold, I have pre- [ pared my dinner ; my oxen land my fatlings are killed, and I all things are ready : come unto the marriage. But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, and another to his merchandise : and the rem- nant took his servants, and en- treated them spitefully, and slew them. But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth : and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they who were bidden were not worthy. Go ye therefore into the highway, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the mar- riage. So those servants went out into the highways, and ga- thered together all, as many as the}^ found, both bad a' id good : and the wedding was furnished with guests. And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding-garment : and he sraith unto hiin, Friend, how earnest thou in hither, not hav- jing a wedding-garmeni ?

Then said Je- sus unto him. Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe. The nobleman saith unto him. Sir, come down ere my child die. Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way ; thy son liv- eth.

And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. And he, trembling and astonished, said. Lord, what wilt thou have me to do ? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do. And the men which journeyed with him stood speech- less, hearing a voice, but see- ing no man. And Saul arose from the earth, and when his eyes were opened he saw no man ; but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus. And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink. And there was a certain disciple at Da- mascus, named Ananias, and to him said the Lord in a vi- sion, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus : for be- ' hold, he prayeth, and hath seen ! in a vision a man nanied Ana- | nias, coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might ,i receive his sight.

And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. And the angel said unto her. Fear not, Mary ; for thou hast found favour with God. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest : and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David : and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. Then said Mar}' unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man ?

I am the vine, ye are the branches : he that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit : for without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered ; and men ga- ther them, and cast them into ' the fire, and they are burned. I If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask wtiat ye will, and it shall be done un- I to you.

For he that wavereth, is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways. Let the bro- ther of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted : but the rich in that he is made low : because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away. For the sun is no sooner risen with a burn- ing heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth : so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways. Blessed is the man that endureth temptation : for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. TIte Gospel. St. John xiv. 1.

TIDINGS of these things came unto the ears of the Church which was in Jerusalem : and they sent forth Barnabas, that he should go as far as Antioch. Who, when he came, and had seen the grace of God, was glad, and exhorted them all, that with purpose of heart they would cleave unto the Lord. For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith : and much people was added unto the Lord. Then departed Bar- nabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul: and when he had found him, he brought him unto An- tioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the Church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. And in these days came prophets from Jeru- salem unto Antioch. And there stood up one of them, named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the world : which came to pass in the days of Claudius Cesar, Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judea : which also they did, and sent it to the elders b}^ the hands of Barnabas and Saul, Saint John Baptist's Day.

And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circum- cise the child; and they called him Zach arias, after the name of his father. And his mother answered and said, Not so ; but he shall be called John. And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name. And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called. And he asked for a writing-table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all. And his mouth was opened im- mediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake, and praised God. And fear came on all that dwelt round about them : and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill-country of Judea. And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this he? And the hand of the Lord was with him. And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying, Blessed be the Lord God of Israel ; for he hath visited and redeemed his people, and hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David ; as he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began : that we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us ; to perform the mercy promised to our fathers, JLa NaoimJi PJieadair, choimhlionadh na trocair a gheall e d'ar n-aithricbibh, agus a chuimhneachadh a clioimhchean- gail iiaomha fein : Na mionnan a mhionnaicli e d'ar ii-athair Abraham.

And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.) And when he had appre- hended him, he put him in pri- son, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him ; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people. Peter therefore was kept in pri- son ; but prayer was made with- out ceasing of the Church unto God for him. And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleep- ing between two soldiers, bound with two chains : and the keepers before the door kept the prison. And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison : and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands. And the angel said unto him, Gird thj'self, and bind on thy sandals : and so he did. And he saith unto him. Cast thy gar- ment about thee, and follow me. And he went out, and followed him ; and wist not that it was true which was done by the angel ; but thought he saw a vision. When they were past the first and the second w^ard, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city, Avhich opened to them of his own accord : and they went out, and passed on through one street ; and forth- with the angel departed from him.

And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist : some, Elias ; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am ? And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona : for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in hea- ven. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I Avill build my Church ; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

THERE Avas war in heaven : Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon fought and his an- gels ; and prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dra- gon was cast out, that old ser- pent, called the devil and Sa- tan, which deceiveth the whole world ; he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saj'ing in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ : for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, w^hicli accused them before our God day and night. And they over- came him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony ; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Wo to the inhabiters of the earth, and of the sea : ibr the devil is come down unto \o\\, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. The Gospel. St. Matt, xviii. 1.

Wberefore if thy band or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast them from tbee : it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than baving. two bands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire. And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from tbee : it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into bell- fire. Take heed that ye de- spise not one of these little ones ; for I say unto you, Tbat in bea- ven their angels do always be bold the face of my Father which is in heaven. Saint Luke the Llvangelist.

If 3'e were of the world, the world would love his own : but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Remem- ber the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than the lord: if they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you ; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. But all these things will they do unto you for my Name's sake, because they know not him that sent me. If I had not come and spoken unto them they had not had sin : but now they have no cloke for their sin. He that hateth me hateth my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin : but now have they both seen and hated both me and m}^ Father. But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law. They hated me without a cause. But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: and ye also shall bear vnt- ness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

Who goeth a warfare at any time
of his own cost.f^ Who planteth a
vineyard, and eateth not of the
fruit thereof? Or who feedeth
the flock, and eateth not of the
milk of the flock .P 1 Cor. ix. 7.
If we have sown unto you
spiritual things, is it a great
matter if we shall reap 3"our
worldly things? 1 Cor. ix. 11.
Do ye not know, that they who
minister about hol}^ things, live
of the sacrifice ? and they who
wait at the altar, are partakers
with the altar? Even so hath
the Lord also ordained, that
they who preach the Gospel
should live of the Gospel.
1 Cor. ix. 13, 14.
He that soweth little shall
reap little ; and he that soweth
plenteously shall reap plente-
ously. Let every man do ac-
cording as he is disposed in his
heart, not grudgingly, or of ne-
cessity ; for God loveth a cheer-
ful giver. 2 Cor. ix. 6, 7.
Let him that is taught in the
Word minister unto him that
teacheth in all good things. Be
not deceived; God is not
mocked : for whatsoever a man
soweth, that shall he reap.
Gal. vi. 6, 7.
While we have time, let us
do good unto all men ; and spe-
cially unto them that are of the
household of faith. Gal. vi. 10.
Godliness is great riches, if
a man be content with that he
hath : for we brought nothing
into the world, neither may we
carry any thing out. 1 Tim. vi.

do upon iii£ Sunday, or some Holy-
Day^ immediately preceding,) after

DEARLY beloved, on
day, next, I purpose,
through God's assistance, to
administer to all such as shall
be religiously and devoutly dis-
posed, the most comfortable
Sacrament of the Body and
Blood of Christ ; to be by them
received, in remembrance of his
meritorious Cross and Passion ;
whereby alone we obtain re-
mission of our sins, and are
made partakers of the kingdom
of heaven. Wherefore it is our
duty to render most humble and
hearty thanks to Almighty God
our heavenly Father, for that
he hath given his Son our
Saviour Jesus Christ, not only
to die for us, but also to be our
spiritual food and sustenance in
that holy Sacrament. Which
being so divine and comfortable
a thing to them who receive it
worthily, and so dangerous to
them that will presume to re-
ceive it unworthily ; my duty is
to exhort you, in the mean
season to consider the dignity of
that holy mystery, and the great
peril of the unworthy receiving
thereof; and so to search and
examine your own consciences
(and that not lightly, and after
the manner of dissemblers with
God ; but so) that j'^e may come
holy and clean to such a heaven-
ly feast, in the marriage gar-
ment required by God in holy
Scripture, and be received a-j
worthy partakers of that holy
table.

The way and means thereto
is ; First, to examine jour lives
and conversations by the rule
of God's commandments ; and
whereinsoever ye shall perceive
yourselves to have offended,
either by will, word, or deed,
there to bewail your own sinful-
ness, and to confess yourselves
to Almighty God, with full pur-
pose of amendment of life. And
if ye shall perceive your offences
to be such as are not only
against God, but also against
your neighbours ; then ye shall
reconcile yourselves unto them,
being ready to make restitution
and satisfaction, according to
the uttermost of your powers,
for all injuries and wrongs done
by you to any other ; and being
likewise ready to forgive others
that have offended you, as ye
would have forgiveness of your
offences at God's band : for
otherwise the receiving of the
holy Communion doth nothing
else but increase your damna-
tion. Therefore if any of you
be a blasphemer of God, an
binderer or slanderer of his
Word, an adulterer, or be in
malice or envy, or in any other
grievous crime, repent you of
your sins, or else come not to
that holy table ; lest, after the
taking of that holy Sacrament,
the devil enter into you, as he
entered into Judas, and fill you
full of all iniquities, and bring
j-ou to destruction both of body
and soul.

3'ou, are ye not ashamed to say,
ye will not come ? When 3'e
should return to God, will ye
excuse yourselves, and say, ye
are not ready ? Consider ear-
nestly with yourselves, how little
such feigned excuses will avail
before God. They that refused
the feast in the Gospel, because
they had bought a farm, or
would try their yokes of oxen,
or because they were married,
were not so excused, but
counted unworthy of the hea-
venly feast. I, for my part,
shall be ready; and according
to mine office, I bid you in the
name of God, I call you in
Christ's behalf, I exhort you,
as 3'e love your own salvation,
that ye will be partakers of this
holy Communion. And as the
Son of God did vouchsafe to
yield up his soul by death upon

it is your duty to receive the
Communion in remembrance of
the sacrifice of his death, as
he himself bath commanded :
Which if ye shall neglect to do,
consider with yourselves, how
great injury ye do unto God,
and how sore punishment hang-

same ; when ye wilfully abstain
from the Lord's Table, and
separate from your brethren,
who come to feed on the ban-

These things if ye earnestly con-
sider, ye will by God's grace re-
turn to a better mind : for the
obtaining whereof we shall not
cease to make our humble peti-
tions unto Almighty God our
heavenly Father.

holy Spirit, to receive him for
thine own Child by adoption,

holy Church. And humbly we
beseech thee to grant, that he
being dead unto sin, and living
unto righteousness, and being
buried with Christ in his death,
may crucify the old man, and
utterly abolish the whole body
of sin ; and that, as he is made
'partaher of the death of thy Son,
he may also be jpartaher of his
resurrection ; so that finally,
with the residue of thy holy
Church, he may be an inheritor
of thine everlasting kingdom ;

remember, that it is your parts
and duties to see that this Infant

able to learn, wbat a solemn
vow, promise, and profession he
hath made hj you. And tbat
he may know these things the
better, ye shall call upon him
to hear Sermons ; and chiefly ye
shall provide, tbat he may learn
the Creed, the Lord's Prayer,
and the Ten Commandments, in
the vulgar tongue, and all other
things which a Christian ought

' he cannot enter into the king-
I dom of God. That which is
{ born of the flesh is flesh ; and
that which is born of the Spirit

said unto thee, Ye must be born

' command to his disciples, say-

replied and said unto tbem, Re-

of you for tbe remission of sins,
and ye sball receiv^e tbe gift of
tbe Holy Ghost. For tbe pro-
mise is to you, and your chil-
dren, and to all that are afar ofP,
even as many as the Lord our
God sball call. And with many
other words exhorted he them,
saying, Save yourselves from
this untoward generation. For
(as the same Apostle testifieth
in another place) even Baptism
doth also now save us, (not the
putting away of the filth of tbe
flesh, but the answer of a good
conscience towards God,) by
the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Doubt ye not therefore, but
earnestly believe, that he will
favourably receive these present
2)ersons, truly repenting, and
coming unto him by faith ; that
he will grant them remission of
their sins, and bestow upon them
the Holy Ghost ; that be will
give them the blessing of eternal
life, and make them partahers of

Tha naomh Pol, 'naLitir chum nanEphesiannach,annsanchuig- eamh Caibideil, a' toirt na h-aith- ne so do na h-uile dhaoine posda; Fheara, gradhaichibh bhur mnai fein, eadhon mar a ghradhaich Criosd an EagLais, agus a thug se ei'ein air a son, chum gunnaomh- aicheadh agus gu'n glanadh e i le ionnlaid an uisge, tridan Fhoc- ail; chum gu'n cuireadh e'na lathair fein i 'na h-Eaglais ghlor- mhor, gun smal, gun phreasadh, no ni air bith d'an leithidibh sin ; ach a chum gu'm biodh i naomh, agus neo-lochdach.

TI After vhich^ if there be no Sermon declaring the duties of Man and Wife, the Minister shall read as foUoiceth. ALL ye that are mamed, or that intend to take the holy estate of Matrimony upon you, hear what the holy Scrip- ture doth say as touching the duty of husbands towards their wives, and wives towards their husbands. St. Paul, in his Epistle to the Ephesians, the fifth chapter, doth give this commandment to all married men ; Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the Church, and gave himself for it ; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of w\ater, by the Word; that he might present it to him- self a glorious Church, not hav- ing spot or wrinkle, or an}" such thing ; but that it should be holy, and without blemish. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself: For uo man ever yet haced his

Air an aobhar so fagaidh duine atbair agus amhatbair, agus dlutb-lean- aidh e ri a mbuaoi ; agus bithidh an dithis, nan aon fbeoil. Is diorahaireacbd mhor so; ach labhram mu Chriosd agus an Eaglais: gidheadh,tbugadhgach aon agaibhse fa leth gradh d'a mhnaoi amhuil mar dba fein. Mar an ceudna tba'n t-Abstol Pol, a' scriobhadh chum nan Colosianacb, a labbairt ris na h-uile dbaoine posda air an doigb so ; Fheara posda, gbradbaicb- ibh bhur mnai, agus na bitbibb searbb 'nan aghaidh. Cluinnibb mar an ceudna ciod a ta Naomb Peadar, Abstol Chriosd, neach a bba e fein 'na fhear posda, ag radb riusan a ta posda; Fheara posda gabhaibhse, combnuidh maille ri bhurmnaibb a reir eolais ; a' toirt urram do'n mhnaoi, mar an soitheach a'san- mhuinne, agus mar mhuinntir ata 'nan comhoighreachaibh air gras na beatha, chum nach cuirear bacadh air bhur n-urnuighibh. Gu ruige so, chuala sibh dleas- nas an fbir do'n mhnaoi. Anis mar an ceudiia, sibhse mhnai, eisdibb agus foghluimibh bhur dleasnas do bhur fearaibh-posda, eadhon mar a tae air'fhoillseach- e.dh gu soilleir 'san Scriobtuir naomh. Anns an Litir a dh'ainmich- eadh roimhechumnan Ephe.-^ian- ach, tha N. Pol gar teagasg mar i 80; Mhnai, bitbibb umbail do j bhur fearaibb fein, mar do'n Tigbearna. Oir is e am fear 345 Q own flesh, but nourisheth and c'lierisheth it, even as the Lord the Church : for we aiv mem- bers of his bodj, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife ; and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mj'stery : but I speak concerning Christ and the Church. Nevertheless, let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as him- self. Likewise the same Saint Paul, writing to the Colossians, speak- eth thus to all men that are married; Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. Hear also what Saint Pet^r, the Apostle of Christ, who was himself a manned man, saitb unto them that are married ; Ye husbands, dwell with your wives according to knowledge; giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered. Hitherto ye have beard the duty of the husband towai'd the wdfe. Now likewise, ye wives, hear and leani your duties txi- ward your husbands, even as it is plainly set forth in hoi}' Scrip- ture. Saint Paul, in the aforenamed Epistle to the Epliesians, teach- eth you t'lus; Wives, submit yourselves unto your own hus- bands, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the bead of the 3

Agus 'na Litir chum na Col- osianacb, tha Naoimh Pol a' toirt an Leasain ghoirid so d>>mbh; Mhnai, bitbibh umhail d'ar tear- aibh fein, mar is cubhaidh anns an Tighearna. Tha Naomh Peadar mar an ceudna 'g'ur teagasg gu ro mhaith, ag radh mar so ; Sibhse mhnai, bitbibh umhail d'ar fear- aibh fein ; chum ma tha dream air bith eas-umhait do'n Pbocal, gu'm bi iadsan mar an ceudna as eugmhais an Fhocail air an cosnadh le deagh chaithe- beatha nam ban ; an uair a bheachdaicheas iadairbhurcaith- eadh-beatha geamnuidh maille ri h-eagal. Na b'i bhur breagh- achd, figheadh an fhuilt agus a cur òir oirbh, agus deagh thrus- gan umaibh, a' bhreaghachd sin thai o'n leth a muigh ; ach duine folaichte a' chridhe, ann an neo- thruaillidheachd ; eadhon breagh- achd spioraid mhacanta agus chiuin, ni a ta ro luachmhor ann an sealladh Dhe. Oir b' ann mar so a rinn na mnai naomh o shean, aig an robh an earbsa ann an Dia, iad fein brougha, air dhoibh bhi umhail d'am fear- aibh fein ; amhuil a thug Sara umhlachd do Abrahnm, a' gairm tighearna dheth ; d"a niglieana sibhse am am feadh a nisibhgu maitli, agus gun gheilt oirbh le h-uabhas sam bith. ^ Tha e iomchuidh giCn gahhadh a' chàraid 7iuadh-pJinsda an Commjinach- adh naomh auj àìn 'm Pusaidh, no aig a cheud choihroin an deiyh am Posaidh. 346 wife, even as Christ is the head of the Church : and he is the Saviour of the body. Therefore as the Church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. And again he saith. Let the wife see that she reverence her husband. And in his Epistle to the Colossians, Saint Paul giveth you this short lesson ; Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Saint Peter also doth instruct you very well, thus saying; Ye wives be in subjection to your own husbands ; that if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives ; while they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear. Whose adorning, let it not be that outward adorning of plait- ing the hair and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of ap- parel ; but let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible ; even the or- nament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands ; even as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord ; whose daughters ye are as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amaze- ment.

If ye endure chastening, God dealetb with you as with sons ; for what son is he, whom the father chastenetb not? But if ye be without chastisement, where- of all are partakers, then ye are bastards, and not sons. Fur- thermore, we have bad fathers of our flesh, which corrected us, and we gave them reverence : shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live ? For they veril}' for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but be tor our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness. These words, good brother, are written in holy Scripture for our comfort and instruction ; that we should patientl}^ and with thanksgiving, bear our heavenly Father's correction, whensoever by any manner of adversity it shall please his gracious good- ness to visit us.

Air an aobhar sin aith- risidh mi dhuit Poncan ar Creid- imh, chum gu'm bi fios agad am bheil thu creidsinn mar is coir do Chriosduidh, no nach 'eil. ^ A nao aithrisidh am Ministeir Ponc- an a" Chreidviih, ag radh mar so, AM bheil thu creidsinn ann an I)ia an t-Athair Uile- chumhachdach, Cruthadair neamh ai^ns talmhainn ? 351 our way to eternal joy is to suf- fer here with Christ; and our door to enter into eternal life, is gladly to die with Christ; that we may rise again from death, and dwell with him in everlasting life. Now, there- fore, taking your sickness, which is thus profitable for you, pa- tiently; I exhort N•ou, in the Name of God, to remember the profession which you made unto God in your Baptism. And forasmuch as after this life there is an account to be given unto the righteous Judge, by whom all must be judged without re- spect of persons, I require you to examine j'ourself and your estate, both towards God and man ; so that accusing and con- demning yourself for your own faults, you may find mercy at our heavenly Father's hand for Christ's sake, and not be ac- cused and condemned in that fearful judgment. Therefore I shall rehearse to you the Ar- ticles of our Faith ; that you may know whether you do be- lieve as a Chi'istian man should, ^ Here the Minisier shall reliearse Ute Articles of the Faith, sayinu thus : DOST thou believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth ?

My heart was hot within me, and while I Avas thus musing, the fire kindled : and at the last I spake with my tongue ; Lord, let me know mine end, and the number of my days : that I may be certified bow long I have to live. Behold, thou hast made my days as it were a span long: and mine age is even as nothing in respect of thee ; and verily every man living is altogether vanit}'. For man walketb in a vain shadow, and disquietetb himself in vain : he heapeth up riches, and cannot tell who shall gather them. And now. Lord, what is my hope : truly my hope is even in thee. Deliver me from all mine offences : and make me not a rebuke unto the foolish. I became dumb, and opened not my mouth : for it was thy doing. Take tb y plague away from me : I am even consumed by means of thy heavy band. When thou with rebukes dost chasten man for sin, thou makest his beauty to consume away, like as it were a moth fretting a garment : every man therefore is but vanity. Hear my pra5'^er, O Lord, and with thine ears consider my calling : hold not thy peace at my tears. 2

THIGHEARNA, bha thusa a' d' dhidean dhuinn o linn gu linn. Mu'n deachaidh na beannta a thoirt a mach, agus mu'n do dhealbh thu an talamh agus an cruinne-ce : eadhon o bhith- bhuantachd gu bith-bhuantachd is tusa Dia. Tha thu tionndadh duine gu sgrios : agus deir thu ris, Pillibh, a chlann nan daoine. Oir a ta mile bliadhna ann ad shealladh-sa, mar an la 'n de : 'n uair a theid e seachad, agus mar fhaire anns an oidhche. Co luath 'sa, tha thu 'g an sgaoileadh, tha iad eadhon mar 3hadal : agus a tha iad a searg air falbh gu grad mar a fear. Anns a mhadainn tha e fuidh bhlath, agus ag fas a suas : ach anns an fheasgar gearrar sios e, tiormaichidh e, agus seargaidh e. Oir tha sinn air ar caitheadh le d' f heir^ : agus le d' chorruich tha sinn air ar claoidh. Chuir thu ar 'n-ea-cearta a' d fhianuis : agus ar peacainnean diomhair ann an solus do ghnuise. Oir tha ar laithean air teir- eachduinn ann ad fheirg : chaith sinn air bliadhnachan mar sgeul a dh' innseadh. Siad laithean ar n'aois, tri fich- ead bliadhna agus a deich; agus 364 For I am a stranger with thee : and a sojourner, as all my fathers were. spare me a little, that I may recover my strength : be- fore I go hence, and be no more seen. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son : and to the Holy Ghost ; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be : world without end. Amen. Domine, refughim. Ps. xc. LORD, thou hast been our refuge : from one genera- tion to another. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever the earth and the world were made ; thou art God from everlasting, and world without end. Thou turnest man to destruc- tion : again thou say est. Come again, ye children of men. For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday : see- ing that is past as a watch in the night. As soon as thou scatterest them, they are even as a sleep : and fade away suddenly like the grass. In the morning it is green, and groweth up : but in the evening it is cut down, dried up, and withered. For we consume away in thy displeasure: and are afraid at thy wrathful indignation. Thou hast set our misdeeds before thee : and our secret sins in the light of thy countenance. For when thou art angry, all our days are gone : we bring our years to an end, as it were a tale that is told. The days of our age are three- score years and ten ; and though

Ach CO dlieir fainear cumhachd do chorruich : oiv eadhon an deigh sin mar a bbitheas eagal air duine, mar sin tha dodhium. Teagaisg dliuinn mar so ar laithean aireamh : chum gu soc- raich sinn ar cridhe air gliocas. Pill, O Thighearna, fa dheoidh : agus bi grasmhor ri d' sheirbhiseach. Sasuich sinn gu moch le d' trocair : a chum gu'n dean sinn gairdeachas agus aoibhneas re ar laithean uile. Dean aoibhneach sinn a reir nan la air an do chraidh thu sinn : agus nam bliadhnan anns am faca sinn olc. Nochd d'obair do d' sheirbhis- ich : agus do ghloir do'n cloinn. Agus gu'n robh Morachd ghlormhor an Tighearna ar De oirnn : soirbhich thusa leinn obair ar lamh, soirbhich thusa leinn obair ar lamh. Gloir do'n Athair, agus do'n Mhac: agus do'n SpioradNaomh ; Mar a bha air tus, a ta nis, agus abhitheas gu brath saoghal gun chrioch. Amen. ^\ An sin leanaidh an Leasan air a thoirt as a' chuige.anih Caihideil deug do cheud Litir Naoimh Phoil dium nan Corinthianach. 1 Corinthianach xv. 20. ACH a nis tha Criosd air eir- igh o na marbhaibh, agus rinneadh an ceud thoradh dhiubh- san a choidil deth. Oir mar is anntre dhuinethainig am bàs, is anntre dhuine thig aiseiris^h nam marbh mar an ceudna. Oir mar ann an Adhamh a ta na h-uile a' 365 men be so strong, that they come to fourscore years : yet is their strength then but labour and soiTOw ; so soon passeth it away, and we are gone. But who regardeth the power of thy wrath : for even there- after as a man feareth. so is thy displeasure. So teach us to number our days : that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. Turn thee again, O Lord, at the last : and be gracious unto thy servants. satisfy us with my mercy, and that soon : so shall we re- joice and be glad all the days of our life. Comfort us again, now after the time that thou hast plagued us : and for the years wherein we have suffered adversity. Shew thy servants thy work : and their children thy glory. And the glorious Majesty of the Lord our God be upon us : prosper thou the work of our hands upon us, prosper thou our handy-work. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son : and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be : world without end. Amen. ^ Then shall fallow the Lesson, taken out of the fifteenth Chapter of the former Epistle of St. Paul to tlia Corinthians. 1 Cor. XV. 20. NOW is Christ risen from the dead, and become tho first-fruits of them that slept. For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrec- tion of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. But

air tus. Agus an ni a chuireas tu, cha'n e an coi*]^) a bhitheas a ta thu ciir, ach grainne lorn, feuduidh e bhi do chruineachd, no do sheorsa eigin eile. Ach a ta Dia a'toirt cuirp dha mar bu toil leis, agus do gach uile shiol a chorp fein. Cha'n aon fheoil gach uile fheoil : ach a ta feoil air leith aig daoinibh, agus feoil eile aig ainmhidhibh, feoil eile aig iasgaibh, agus feoil eile aig eun- laithibh. Agus a ta cuirp neamh- aidh ann, agus cuirp thalmhaidh : gidheadh a ta gloir air leth aig na corpaibh neamhaidh, agus gloir eile aig na corpaibh talmh- aidh. Tha aon ghloir aig a' ghrein, agus gloir eile aig a' ghealaich, agus gloir eile aig na reultaibh ; oir a ta eadar dheal- achadh eadar reult agus reult thaobh gloire. Agus is ann mar sin a bhios aiseirighnam rnarbh. Cuirear ann an truaillidheachd e, togar ann an neo-thruaillidh- eachd e. Cuirear e ann an eas- urram, togar ann an gloir e : cuirear ann an anmhuinneachd e, eiridh e ann an cumhachd: Cuirear e 'na chorp nadurra, eir- idh e 'na corp spioradail. Tha corp nadurra ann, agus corp spioradail. Agus mor so tha e scriobhta, Einneadh an ceud dhuine Adhamh 'na anam beo, an t-Adhamh deireannach 'na Spiorad a bheothaicheas. Gidh- eadh cha'n e an ni spioradail a bha ann air tus, ach an ni nad- urra ; agus 'na dheigh sin an ni spioradaiL An ceud duine o'n talamh, talmhaidh : an dara duine, an Tighearna o neamh. ]\Iaran duine talmhaidh, is amh- uile sin iadsan a tha talmhaidh : agus mar a ta an duine ni-umh- aidh, is ann mar sin iadsan a ta neamhaidh. Agusmaraghiulain sinn dealbh an duine thalmhaidh, 307 ' other grain : but God giveth it a body, as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body. All flesh is not the same flesh ; but there is one kind of flesh of I men, another flesh of beasts, ! another of fishes, and another of j birds. There are also celestial j bodies, and bodies terrestrial ; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terres- j trial is another. There is one glory of the sun, and another I glory of the moon, and another ' glory of the stars ; for one star diff"ereth from another star in glory. So also is the resurrec- tion of the dead : It is sown in corruption ; it is raised in incor- ruption : It is sownin dishonour; it is raised in glory : it is sown in weakness ; it is raised in power : It is sown a natural body : it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul ; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. Howbeit, that was not first which is spi- ritual, but that which is natural ; and afterward that which is spi- ritual. The first man is of the earth, earthy : the second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthy, such are they that are earthy : and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. As we have borne the iuiage of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery : AVe shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the

Chuartaich eangach a bhais mi ; agus f huair piantan ifrinn greini orm. Fhuair mi trioblaid agus bron ; agus gairm mi air Ainm an Tighearna : O Thighearna, guidheam ort saor m' anam. Is grasmhor agus is firinneach an Tighearna : seadh is trocair- each ar Dia-ne. Tha 'n Tighearna ag gleidh- eadh nan daoine aon-fhillte : bha mi ann an truaighe, agus chuidich e mi.

The snares of death compassed me round about : and the pains of hell gat hold upon me. I found trouble and heaviness, and I called upon the Name of the Lord : Lord, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. Gracious is the Lord, and righteous : yea, our God is merciful. The Lord preserveth the sim- ple : I was in misery, and he helped me. Turn again then unto thy rest, O my soul : for the Lord hath rewarded thee. And why ? thou hast delivered my soul from death : mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

Ciod an duais a bheir mi do'n Tigbearna: airson na h-uile sbocbairean a thug e dhomh. Glacaidh mi cupan na slainte : agus gairmidh mi air Ainm an Tighearna. locaidb mi a nis mo bhoidean dha ann an lathair a sbluaigh uile : ann an cuirtibh tigb an Tighearna, eadhon ann a' d' mheadhon-sa, O lerusalem. ]\tolaibh an Tighearna.

MAR tog an Tighearna an tigh : cha'n eil saothair a luchd-togail ach caillte. Mar gleidh an Tighearaa am baile : cha'n 'eil am fear-faire ach ri caithris dhiomhain. Cha'n 'eil ach saothair chaillte dhuibh abhi an cabhaij^^gueiridh moch agus a bhi luidhe co an- moch, agus ag itheadh arain a* bhroin : oir gu cinnteach tha esan a' toirt cadal ga mhuinntir ionmhuinn fein.

Is sona an duine aig a bheil a bholg-saighead Ian dhiubh : cha bhi naire orra, 'nuair a labhras iad ri naimhdibh anns a' gheata. 373 I will walk before the- Lord : in the land of the living. I believed, and therefore will I speak ; but I was sore trou- bled: I said in my haste. All men are liars. What reward shall I give vki- to the Lord : for all the benefits that he hath done unto me? I will receive the cup of sal- vation : and call upon the Name of the Lord. I will pay my vows now in the presence of all his people : in the courts of the Lord's house, even in the midst of thee, Jerusalem. Praise the Lord. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son : and to the Holy Ghost ; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be : world without end. Amen. Or, Psal. cxxvii. Nisi Domiiius. EXCEPT the Lord build the house : their labour is but lost that build it. Except the Lord keep the city : the watchman waketh but in vain. It is but lost labour that ye haste to rise up early, and so late take rest, and eat the bread of carefulness : for so he giveth his beloved sleep. Lo, children and the fruit of the womb : are an heritage and gift that Cometh of the Lord. Like as the arrows in the hand of the giant : even so are the young children. Happy is the man, that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed when they speak with their enemies in the gate.

Behold, I was shapen in wickedness : and in sin hath my mother conceived me. But lo, thou requirest truth in the inward parts ; and shalt make me to understand wisdom secretly. Thou shalt purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean : thou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Thou shalt make me hear of joy and gladness : that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. Turn thy face away from my sins : and put out all my mis- deeds. Make me a clean heart, O God : and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from th}' presence : and take not thy Holy Spirit from me. O give me the comfort of thy help again : and stablish me with thy free Spirit. Then shall I teach thy ways unto the wicked : and sinners shall be converted unto thee. Deliver me from blood-guilti- ness, O God, thou that art the God of my health : and my tongue shall sing of thy righte- ousness. Thou shalt open my lips, Lord : and my mouth shall shew thy praise. For thou desirest no sacrifice, else would I give it thee : but thou delightest not in burnt- offerings.

denied him the request of his

3 For thou shalt prevent him

and shalt set a crown of pure

thou gavest him a long life :

5 His honour is great in thy

ship shalt thou lay upon him.
6 For thou shalt give him
everlasting felicity : and make

7 And why ? because the
king putteth his trust in the
Lord : and in the mercy of the
Most Highest he shall not mis-
carry.
8 All thine enemies shall feel

find out them that hate thee.
9 Thou shalt make them like
a fiery oven in time of thy

them in his displeasure, and the

Psalm xxiv. Domini est terra.
THE earth is the Lord's, and
all that therein is : the
compass of the world, and they
that dwell therein.
2 For he hath founded it
upon the seas : and prepared it
upon the floods.
3 Who shall ascend into the
hill of the Iiord : or who shall
rise up in his holy place ?
4 Even he that hath clean
hands, and a pure heart : and
that hath not lift up his mind
unto vanity, nor sworn to de-
ceive his neighbour.
5 He shall receive the blessing
from the Lord : and righteous-
ness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is the generation of
them that seek him: even of them
that seek thy face, Jacob.

that I may be certified how long
I have to live.
6 Behold, thou hast made my
day as it were a span long : and
mine age is even as nothing in
respect of thee ; and verily every
man living is altogether vanity.
7 For man walketh in a vain
shadow, and disquieteth him-
self in vain : he heapeth up
riches, and cannot tell who shall
gather them.
8 And now, Lord, what is my
hope : truly my hope is even in

offences : and make me not a
rebuke unto the foolish.

doing.

the means of thy heavy hand.
12 When thou with rebukes
dost chasten man for sin, thou
makest his beauty to consume
away, like as it were a moth
fretting a garment : every man
therefore is but vanity.
13 Hear my prayer, Lord,
and with thine ears consider my
calling : hold not thy peace at
my tears.
14 For I am a stranger with
thee, and a sojourner : as all my
fathers were.

I may recover my strength : be-

destroyed the nations, and cast

3 For they gat not the land

Name will we tread them under,
that rise up against us.
7 For I will not trust in my

3 Our God shall come, and
shall not keep silence : there
shall go before him a consuming
fire, and a mighty tempest shall
be stirred up round about him.
4 He shall call the heaven
from above : and the earth, that
he may judge his people.
5 Gather my saints together
unto me : those that have made
a covenant with me with sacrifice.
6 And the heaven shall de-
clare his righteousness : for God
is Judge himself,
7 Hear, my people, and I
will speak : I myself will testify
against thee, Israel; for I
am God, even thy God.
8 1 will not reprove thee be-
cause of thy sacrificee, or for thy
burnt-offerings : because they
were not alway before me.
9 I will take no bullock out
of thine house : nor he-goat out
of thy folds.
10 For all the beasts of the
forest are mine : and so are the
cattle upon a thousand hills.
11 I know all the fowls upon
the mountains; and the wild
beasts of the field are in my
sight.
12 If I be hungry. I will not
tell thee : for the whole world
is mine, and all that is therein.
13 Thinkest thou that I will
eat bulls' flesh : and drink the
blood of goats ?
14 Offer unto God thanks-
giving : and pay thy vows unto
the most Highest,
15 And call upon me in the
time of trouble : so will I hear
thee, and thou shalt praise me.

God : Why dost thou preach
my laws, and takest my cove-
nant in thy mouth }

Deal not so madly : and to the un- godly, Set not up your horn. 6 Set not up your horn on high : and speak not with a stiff neck. 7 For promotion cometh nei- ther from the east, nor from the west : nor from the south. 8 And why? God is the 1 Judge : he putteth down one, and setteth up another. ! 9 For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine is red : it is full mixed, and he poureth out of the same. 10 As for the dregs thereof : all the ungodly of the earth shall drink them, and suck them out. 11 But I will talk of the God of Jacob : and praise him for ever. 12 All the horns of the un- godly also will I break : and the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

Tighearna 'nan trioblaid ; agus dh'fhuasgail e iad bho'n teann- eiginn. Threoruich e iad amach air an t-slighe cheart ; chum gu'n reachadh iad dh'ionnsaidh a bhaile 'sna ghabh iad comh- nuidh. O gu'n tugadh daoine moladh do'n Tighearna air son a mhaith- eis ; agus gu'n cuireadh iad an ceill na h-iongantais tha e dean- amh air son cloinn nan daoine ! Oir tha e sasuchadh an anama fhalamh ; agus a lionadh an anama ocraich le maitheas ; Mheud is tha suidhe an dorchadas, agus a sgaile a bhais ; air bhi dhoibh ceangailt gu teann ann an truaigh, agus an iarunn. Chionn gun d' rinn iad ceann- airc an aghaidh briathran an Tighearna ; agus gun do chuir iad an neo-brigh comhairle an ti 's airde. Thug e sios an cridheachan fos le tursadh : thuit iad sios, agus cha robh aon neach a dheanadh cobhair orra. Mar sin 'nuair a ghlaodh iad ris an Tighearna 'nan trioblaid : dh'fhuasgail e orra as an teann- eiginn. Oir thug e iad a dorchadas, agus a sgaile a bhais ; agus bhrist e an cuibhrichean nam bloidean. gu moladh daoine uime sin an Tighearna air son a mhaith- eis ; agus gu'n cuireadh iad an ceill na h-iongantais tha e dean- amh do chloinn nan daoine ! Oir bhrist e na geatachan prais ; agus bhuail e na croinn iaruinn 'nam bloidean. Tha na h-araadain air an sgiursadh air son am peacaidh ; agus air son an aingeachd. Ghabh an anama fuath do 506 in their trouble: and he delivered them from their distress. He led them forth by the right way : that they might go to the city where they dwelt. O that men would therefore praise the Lord for his goodness: and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men ! For he satisfieth the empty soul : and filleth the hungry soul with goodness. Such as sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death : being fast bound in misery and iron ; Because they rebelled against the words of the Lord : and lightly regarded the counsel of the most Highest ; He also brought down their heart through heaviness : they iell down, and there was none to help them. So when they cried unto the Lord in their trouble : he de- livered them out of their distress. For he brought them out of darkness, and out of the shadow of death : and brake their bonds in sunder. that men would therefore praise the Lord for his goodness : and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men ! For he hath broken the gates of brass : and smitten the bars of iron in sunder. Foolish men are plagued for their offence : and because of their wickedness. Their soul abhorred all manner

gach gne bliidh ; agus is beag nach robh iad eadhon aig dorus a bhais. Mar sin 'nuair a gblaodh iad lis an Tighearna 'nan trioblaid ; dh'fhuasgail e orra as an teann- eiginn. Chuir e mach fhocal, agus leighis e iad ; agus shabhaladh iad bho'n doruinn. O gu moladh daoine uime sin an Tighearna air son a mhaitheis ; agus gu'n cuireadh iad an ceill na h-iungantais tha e deanamh do chloinn nan daoine. Gu'n tairgeadh iad dha iob- airt breith-buidheachais ; agus gu'n innseadh iad amaeh oibre le aoibhneas ! ladsan tha seoladh a chuain ann an loingeas ; agus ri gnoth- aichean anns na mor uisgeach- aibb : Tha na daoine sin a faicinn oibre an Tighearna ; agus ion- gantais anns an doimhneachd.

Tha iad air an luasgadh thuig agus uaithe, agus ag tuisleadh mar dhuine misg- each ; agus tha iad aig ceann an ceille. Mar sin 'nuair a gblaodhas iad ris an Tighearna nan triob- laid ; saoraidh e iad as an teann-eiginn. Oir bheir e air an doirionn sgur; ionnas gun bi a tonna samhach. An sin bithidh iad ait, chionn gu'm bheil iad aig fois ; agus mar sin bheir e iad do'n chala gus 'am b' aill leo del. 597 of meat : and thej were even hard at death's door. So when they cried unto the Lord in their trouble: he deliver- ed them out of their distress. He sent his word, and healed them : and they were saved from their destruction. that men would therefore praise the Lord for his goodness: and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men ! That they would offer unto him the sacrifice of thanksgiving;: and tell out his works with glal- ness ! They that go down to the sea in ships : and occupy their busi- ness in great waters ; These men see the works of the Lord : and his wonders in the deep. For at his word the stormy wind ariseth : which ILfteth up the waves therof. They are carried np to the heaven, and down ajain to the deep : their soul melteth away because of the trouble. They reel to and fro, and stag- ger like a drunken man : and are at their wits' end. So when they cry unto the Lord in their trouble: he deli- vereth them out of their distress. For he maketh the storm to cease : so that the waves thereof are still. Then are they glad, because they are at rest : and so he bringeth them unto the haven where they would be.

And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him ; for they know not the voice of strangers.

As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father : and I lay down my life for the sheep. And othi^r sheep I have, which are not of this fold : them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice ; and there shall be one fold, and one Shepherd. ^ Then the Bishop, sitting in his chair, shaft say unto them as Ivereafter fulloweth. YOU have heard, Brethren, as well in your private examination, as in the exhorta- tion which was now made to you, and in the holy Lessons

naomh a thuojadh as an t'Soisgeul agus bho scriobhadh nan Abstol, ciod i moralachd, agus mor chudthrom na h'Oifig, a ghairmeadh sibh gu fhrith- ealadh. Agus tha sinne a nise ag earalachadh oirbh ann an ainm ar Tighearna Iosa Criosd, gun gleidh sibh gnath chuimhne air fiughantachd agus air mor chudthrom na h'Oifig agus an Orduigh a ghairmeadh sibh gu cho'lionadh: se sin ri radh, gu bhi 'nar Teachdairean,nar Lucbd faire, agus 'nar Stiubhartan do'n Tighearna, gu teagasg agus gu comhairleachadh, gu beatbach- adh agus gu gleidheadh loin airson teaghlaich an Tighearna ; gu iarraidh airson caoirich Chriosd ata air a sgapadh feadh an domhain, agus airson a Chloinne ata meadhon an t'saoghail aingidh so, chum gum bi iad air a sabhaladh gu siorruidh tre Iosa Criosd. Uime sin gleidhibh a ghnath cuimhne air oirdheirceas na li'ionrahaise a chuireadh air bhur curam. Oir si an ionmhais sin, caoii'ich Chriosd a cheannuich e le Bhas, ngus dboirt e Fhuil air a son. Si an Eaglais agus an Coithional ata agaibh ri Sheir- bheiseachadh Ceilidh agus Corp Chriosd. Agus ma dh'eireas dochunn no baud aon chuid do'n Eaglais cheudna sin, no do dh'aon air bith ga Buill le'r michuram-se, 's aithne dhuibh meud na coire, agus eadhon an diultas uabhasach athig nalorg. Air an aobhar sin smuaintichibh agaibh fein air criche bhur frithealaidh do Chloinn Dhe, do Cheilidh, agus do Chorp Chriosd ; agus thugaibh aire shonruichte nach sguir sibh a choidhche do'r saothair, do'r curam, agus do'r dichioll gus an ■" 628 taken out of the Gospel, and the writings of the Apostles, of what dignity, and of how great importance this Office is, where- unto ye are called. And now again we exhort you, in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you have in remembrance, into how high a Dignity, and to how weighty an Office and Charge ye are called: that is to sa}', to be Messengers, Watch- men, and Stewards of the Lord ; to teach, and to premonish, to feed and provide for the Lord's family ; to seek for Christ's sheep that are dispersed abroad, and for his children who are in the midst of this naughty world, that they may be saved through Christ for ever. Have always therefore printed in your remembrance, how great a treasure is committed to your charge. For they are the sheep of Christ, which he bought with his death, and for whom he shed his blood. The Church and Congregation whom you must serve, is his Spouse, I and his Body. And if it shall happen the same Church, or any Member thereof, to take any hurt or hindrance by reason of your negligence, ye know the greatness of the fault, and also the horrible punishment that will ensue. Wherefore consider with yourselves the end of your Ministry towards the children of God, towards the Spouse and Body of Christ ; and see that you never cease your labour, your care and diligence, until you have done all that lieth in you, according to your bounden duty, to bring all such as are or shall be committed to your charge, unto that agreement in the faith and knowledge of God,

co'lion sibli gach ni *s comasach dhuibh a reir bhur dleasnais cheangailte, gu treorachadh gach neach ata, no bhios fo'r curam chum cordadh amis a Chreidirah agus eohis De, gu fallaineachd agus iomlanachd aoise ann an Criosd, chum 's nach bi ionad air bith ri f haotainn 'nar measg, eadhon airson mearaichd 'sa Chreidimh, no airson truaill- eachd beatha. Uinie sin bho'n tha bhur Oifig araon cho oirdheirc, agus cho ro dhuilich ; chi sibh ciod a in or churam is coir dhuibh a ghabhail dh 'i, agus sibh fein a leagadh rithe, chum gu nochd sibh sibh fein dileas agus taing- eil don Tighearna sin, a shuidh- ich sibh na leithid do dh'ard Innbhe ; mar an ceudna is coir dhuibh a bhi faicil!e;ich nach d' thoir sibh fein oilbheum, agus nach bi sibli 'nar n-aobhar oil- bheum do dhaoine eile. Os bar cha'n urrainn dhuibh inntinn agus toil a bhi agaibh uaithibh fein, chum so a cho'lionadh ; oir tha an toil agus an comas so air an toirt le Dia amhain : uime sin, tha e iomchaidh agus feum- ail dhuibh guidhe ga durachd- ach airson a Spioraid Naoimh. Ai]^us ag faicinn dhuibh nach urrainn eibh, le meadhoin air bith eile, a leithid so do dh'obair thruim a bhuineas do shabh- aladh dhaoine cho'lionadh, ach le teagasg agus earail air an toirt 'o Scriobtur naomh, agus le'r caithbeatha da reir : smuaintichibh cia cho durachd- ach is coir dhuibh a bhi ann an leubhadh agus ann a foghlum na'Scriobtuiribh, agus araon sibh fein agus iadsan uile bhuineas dhuibh a ghiulan gu firinneach 'nar doighibh a reir riaghailt a'lScriobtiUr cheudna; agus airson 629 and to that ripeness and perfect- ness of age in Christ, that there be no place left among you, either for error in religion, or for viciousness in life. Forasmuch then as your Office is both of so great ex- cellency', and of so great diffi- culty, ye see with how great care and study 3'e ought to apply yourselves, as well that ye ma}" shew yourselves dutiful and thankful unto that Lord, who hath placed you in so high a Dignity ; as also to beware, that neither 3'ou 3'onrselves otlend, nor be occasion that others offend. Howbeit, ye cannot have a mind and will thereto of yourselves ; for that will and abilit}'^ is given of God alone : therefore ye ought, and have need, to pray earnestly for his Holy Spirit. And seeing that 3'ou cannot by any other means compass the doing of so weighty a work, pertaining to the salvation of man, but with doctrine and exhortation taken out of the holy Scriptures, and with a life agreeable to the same ; consider how studious ye ought to be in reading and learning the Scriptures, and in framing the manners both of yourselves, and of them that specially pertain unto you, according to the rule of the same Scriptures : and for this self- same cause, how ye ought to forsake and set aside (as much as you may) all worldly cares and studies. Coisrìgeadh ShagarU an aoWiair cheudna, cionnas a dhleasadh dhuibh (cho fad agus is urrainn sibb) gach curam agus gnothach saoghalta threig- sinn. Tha lan earbsa aguinn gun do bbeacbd-smuainich agus gun do bhreithuicb sibh ribh fein air na nithe so bbo cbionn fada ; agus gun do chuir sibh ga durachdach roirabibb tre ghras De gun d'tbugadb sibh sibh fein gu h'iomlan a suas do'n Oifig so, anns bu deonach le Dia air gairm ; agus tha dochas aguinn gun leag sibh bhur n' inntinu gu leir oirre, eadhon cho fad agus a laidheas ^lar comas, agus gun tarruing sibh bhur n' uile churam agus smuaintean chum na sligh so; agus gun guidh sibh a ghnath air Dia 'n t' Athair airson comhnadh a Spior- aid Naoimh tre 'r Slanuigh'ear losa Criosd, chum gun neart- aichear agus gu fas sibh ladair na'r Ministreileachd, tre ghnath leubhadh agus raunsachadh a Scriobtuir ; agus leis a sin, gun dean sibh dichioll bbo am gu h'am air bhur beatha fein agus bhur cuidheachd a naomhachadh agus a chumhadh reir reachd agus teagasg Chriosd, chum gum bi sibh 'nar eisempleiribh firinneach agus diadhaidh air chor 's gun lean an sluagh sibh. Agus air chor 's gun tuigeadh Coi'thional Chriosd ata lathair ann a so, araon bhur 'n inntinn agus bhur toil anns na nithibh sin, agus a chum gun gluais bhur gealladh na's mo sibh fein gu co'iionadh 'ur dleasuais ; freagraidh sibh gu soilleir nan nithe sinn, a dh'fharduis sinn ann an Ainm Dhe agus Eaglais dhibh a thaobh na h'Oillg so. We have good hope that you have well weighed and pondered these things with yourselves long before this time ; and that you have clearly determined, by God's grace, to give yourselves wholly to this OlKce, whereunto it hath pleased God to call you : so that, as much as lieth in you, you will apply yourselves wholly to this one thing, and draw all your cares and studies this way ; and that you will continually pray to God the Father, by the Mediation of our only Saviour Jesus Christ, for the heavenly assistance of the Holy Ghost ; that by daily reading and w^eighing of the Scriptures, ye may wax riper and stronger in your Ministry ; and that ye may so endeavour yourselves, from time to time, to sanctify the lives of jou and yours, and to fashion them after the Rule and Doctrine of Christ, that ye may be wholesome and godly examples and patterns for the people to follow. And now, that this present Congregation of Christ here assembled may also understand 3'our minds and wills in these things, and that this your promise may the more move you to do your duties, 3'e shall , answer plainly to these things, which we, in the Name of God, and of his Church, shall demand of you touching the same.

Ye know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons, serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears and temptations which befel me by the lying in wait of the Jews ; and how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, re- pentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. And now behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befal me there ; save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying, that bonds and af- flictions abide me. But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the Gospel of the grace of God. And now behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the king- dom of God, shall see my face no more. Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men. For I have not shunned to de- clare unto you all the counsel of God. Take heed therefore un- to yourselves, and to all the flock over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you Overseers, to feed the Church of God which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel ; 5'ea, ye your- selves know, that these hands have ministered unto my neces- sities, and to them that were with me. I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak ; and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said. It is more blessed to give than to receive. ^ Then anotlur Bishop shall read The Gospel. St. John xxi. 19. JESUS saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him. Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him. Feed m}' lambs. He saith to him again the second Coisrìgeadh Eashuigean.

And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things ; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed mj sheep. Or else this : St. John XX. 19. THE same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assem- bled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus, and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord. Then saith Jesus to them again. Peace be unto you : as m}^ Father hath sent me, even so send I you. And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Re- ceive ye the Holy Ghost, Whose- soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them ; and who; soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

Ann an ainm an Scriobtuir Naoimh tha sinn a tuigsinn Leabhraich- ean riaghailtean an t-seann- Tionnina agus an Tiomna-Xuadh, mu'n ughdaras nach robh teag- amh riamh 'san Eaglais.

In the name of the hoi}' Scrip- ture we do understand those canonical Books of the Old and New Testament, of whose au- thority was never any doubt in the Church, Of the Names and Number of the Canonical Books. f^ENESIS, \Jf' Exodus, Leviticus, Niimhers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, Ruth, The First Boole of Samuel, The Second Boole of Samuel, The First Book of Kings, The Second Book of Kings, The First Book of Chronicles, The Second Book of Chronicles, The First Book of Esdras, The Second Book of Esdras, The Book of Esther, The Book of Joh, The Psalms, The Proverhs, Ecclesiastes or Preacher, Cantica, or Songs of Solomon^ Four Prophets the greater. Twelve Prophets the less. And the other Books (as Hierome saith) the Church doth read for example of life and in- struction of mani;ers ; but yet doth it not apply to them to es- tablish any doctrine ; such are these following : Articles of Religion, Treas leahJiay* Esdrais^ Ceathramh Jeahhar Esdrais, Leahhar 27/ob/as, Leahhar ludiih, A chuid eile leahhar Est7iei% Leahhar a Ghliocais, losa 3Iac Sirac, Ha rue am Faidh, Oraii an Triuir Chloinne, Sgeul Susaìiìia, Mu Bhel affus an Dragon^ Urnnigh 31hanasse, Ceud leahhar Maccaheus, Dara leahhar Maccabeus, Uile leabhraichean an Tiomna Nuadli, mar tha iad gu coitchionn air an gabhail, tha sinne g'am nieas laghail le ughdaras.

C^HA'X 'eil an Seann-Tiomna y an aghaidh an Tiomna- Nuadh, oir araonanns ant-seann- Tiomna agus 'san Tiomna- Nnadh, tha beatha shiorruidh air a tairgse do'n chinne-daoine tre Chriosd, an ti is aon Eadar- mheadhonair eadar Dia agus duine, air dha bhi na Dhia agus na Dhuine. Uime sin cha'n eisdear riusanathacumail amach nach robh na Seann Athraichean ag amharc ach arahaiu ri geall- uibh aimsireil. Ge d' nach 'eil an high a thug Dia le Maois a thaobh deas-ghnathachaidh agus riaghailtean, a ceangal dhaoine Criosdaidh ; ni mo bu chuibhidh da reachda laghail do eigin a bhi air an gabhail a dh'ionn- suidh staid sam bith riaghailt ; gidheadh, cha'n 'eil Criosdaidh sam bith saor bho umhlachd a thoirt do na h-altheantaibh d'an gairmear aitheautan na Moth- aunaibh. VIII. Mu na tri Creudan. ^S coir na Creudan, Creud A JSicene. Creud Athanasius, 6G9 Uie Third Boole ofEsdras, The Fourth Book ofFsdras, The Book of Tohias, The Book of Judith, The rest of the Book of Esther, The Book of Wisdom, Jesus the Son of Sirack, Baruch the Prophet, The Song of the Three Children y The Storg of Susanna, Of Bel and the Dragon, The Prayer of Manasses, The First Book of Maccahees, The Second Book of Maccahees. All the Books of the New Testament, as they are common- ly received, we do receive, and account them Canonical. VII. Of the Old Testament. THE Old Testament is not contrary to the New : for both in the Old and New Testa- ment everlasting life is offered to Mankind by Christ, who is the only Mediator between God and Man, being both God and Man. Wherefore they are not to be heard, which feign that the old Fathers did look only for transitory promises. Although the Law given from God by Moses, as touching Ceremonies and Rites, do not bind Christian men, nor the Civil precepts thereof ought of necessity to be received in any common-wealth ; yet notwith- standing, no Christian man whatsoever is free from the obe- dience of the Commandments which are called Moral. VIII. Of the Three Creeds. THE Three Creeds, Nicene Creed, Athanasius's Creed, Foncan a ChreidimJi, agus a clireud d'an gairmear gu cumanta Creud nan Abstol, a bhi air an gabhail agus air an creid- sinn gu h-ioralan ; oir faodar an dearbliaidh le fior bharantas bho 'n Scriobtur Naomh. IX. Mu Pheacadh Gin no Breith. CHA'N 'eil peacadh gin a seasamh ann an leantuin Adhamh (mar tha na Pelagian- uich gu diomhain a labhairt) ach is e coire agus truailleachd nad- air na h-uile dhuine, a tha gu nadarra air a ghintinn do shliochd Adhamh; leis am bheil duine air dol fada bho'n ceud fhireantachd agus a tha thaobh nadair air aomadh chum uilc,ionnas gubheil an fheoildoghnath miannachadh an aghaidh a Spioraid, agus air an aobhar sin anns gach neach tha air a bhreith 'san t'saoghal so, tha e toilltinn corruich agus diteadh Dhe. Agus tha'n eug- ail nadair so a mairsinn, seadh, annta-san tha air an ath- ghineamhuinn; leis abheilmiann na' feola, air a ghairm anns an Greugais, ^p6vT]ixa aapKos, leis am bheil cuid a ciallachadh gliocas, cuid feolmhorachd, cuid an-miann, cuid eile toil na feola, nach eile umhail do lagh Dhe. Agus ged 'nach 'eil diteadh air bith dhoibhsan a ta creidsinn agus a tha air am baisteadh, gidheadh, tha'n abstol ag aidmh- eil, gu bheil aig sannt-teolmhor agus an-miann dheth fein uadar a pheacaidh. X. 3fii shaor-thoil. THA staid an duine an deigh tuiteam Adamh. air dhoigh is nach urrain e pilltinn agus e fein ullachadh chum creidimh agus gairm air I)ia, le neart nadarra agus le dheagh oibre fein; uime sinniancomasdhuinn 670 and that which is commonly called the Apostles Creed, ought thoroughly to be received and believed : for they may be proved by most certain warrants of holy Scripture. IX. Of original or Birth-sin. ORIGINAL Sin standeth not in the following ot Adam, (as the Pelagians do vainly talk ;) but it is the fault and corruption of the Nature of every man, that naturally is ingendered of the offspring of Adam; whereb}'^ man is very far gone from original righteous- ness, and is of his own nature inclined to evil, so that the flesh lusteth always contrary to the Spirit ; and therefore in every person born into this world, it deserveth God's wrath and damnation. And this in- fection of nature doth remain, yea in them that are regene- rated ; whereby the lust of the flesh, called in the Greek, ^pijvr]ixa (TapKos, which some do expound the wisdom, some sen- suality, some the affection, some the desire, of the llesh, is not subject to the Law of God. And although there is no con- demnation for them that believe and are baptized, yet the Apostle doth confess, that con- cupiscence and lust hath of it- self the nature of sin. X. Of Free- Will THE condition of Man after the fall of Adam is such, that he cannot turn and prepare himself, by his own natural strength and good works, to faith, and calling upon God: Wherefore we have no power Articles of jRelìrjion. oibre maitli, taitneach, a^ns I to do good works pleasant and ciattliacb a dlieanamh do Dhia gu'n gbras De, tre Chriosd g'ar roimh-stiuradh, a chum is gu'm bi toil mhaitb againn ; agus a coi'oibhreachadh leinn, 'nuair a bbitheas an deagh tboil sin againn.

XI. OfUieJufftiJtcationofMan. WE are accounted righteous before God, only for the merit of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ by Faith, and not for our own works or deserv- ings : Wherctbre, that we are justified by Faith only is a most wholesome Doctrine, and very full of comfort, as more largely is expressed in the Homily of Justification. XII. Of Good Worhf. ALBEIT that Good Works, which are the fruits of Faith, and follow after Justifi- cation, cannot put away our sins, and endure the severity of God's Judgement ; yet are they pleasing and acceptable to God in Christ, and do spring out necessarily of a true and lively Faith ; insomuch that by them a lively Faith may be as evidently known as a tree discerned by the fruit. XIII. Of WorJcs before Justifi- cation, WORKS done before the grace of Christ, and the Inspiration of his Spirit, are not pleasant to God, forasmuch as they spring not of faith in Jesus Christ, neither do they make men meet to receive grace, or (as the School-authors say) de- serve grace of congruity ; yea I^oncan a Chre'idiinh. le iomchaclid : seadb, mar rach 'eil iad air an deanamh mar bu toil le Dia, agus mar dh'althn e an deanamh, cha 'n 'eil sinn an teagamh nach 'eil nadar a pheac- aidli annta. rather, for that they are not done as God hath willed and commanded them to be done, we doubt not but thej have the nature of sin. I XIV. Muoihre thair-larraclid. CHA'N fhaod Oibre toileil, fodh,naoscionn,aitheantan Dhe, oibre d'an gairmear Thair- barraehd, a bhi air an teagasg gu'n danadas agus ain-diadh- achd; oir leo sin tha daoine a cuir an ceill, gu bheil iad ag iocadh do Dhia cha'n e amhain, mheud agus a tha fiachnuichte orra iocadh, ach ga bheil iad a deanamh tuille air a sgath, no tha j dleasnas ceangailt ag iarruidh : an aghaidh so deir Criosd gu soilleir, 'jS^uair a ni sibh gach ni tha air aithne dhuibh, abraibh is sheirbheisich mi-tharbhach sinn. XV. Mu CJiriosd amhain gun fheacadh. BHA Criosd ann am firinn ar nadair, air a dheanamh cos- mhuil ruinne anns na h-uilenith- ibh (ach peacadh amhain) bho 'n robh e gu h-iomlan saor, araon na fheoil, agus na Spiorad. Thainig e gu bhi na Uan gun smal, an ti le e fein iobairt aon uair, a thug air falbh peacainn- ean an t' saoghail ; agus mar tha N. Eoin a labhairt cha robh peacadh ann. Ach sinne uile, ge do tha sinn air ar baisteadh agus air ar breith a ris ann an Criosd, gidheadh, tha sinn a deanamh eacoir ann an iomad ni ; agus mu their sinn nach 'eil peacadh ann- ainn tha sinn 'gar mealladh fein agus cha 'n eil an fhiriun ann- ainu. 672 XIV. Of Worhs of Supereroga- tion. VOLUNTARY Works be- sides, over and above, God's Commandments, which they call "Works of Supereroga- tion, cannot be taught without arrogance and impiet3^ : for by them men do declare, that they do not only render unto God as much as they are bound to do, but that they do more for his sake, than of bounden duty is required : whereas Christ saith plainly. When ye have done all that are commanded to you, say. We are unprotitable ser- vants. XV. Of Christ alone without Sin. CHRIST in the truth of our nature was made like unto us in all things, sin only except, from which he was clearly void, both in his flesh, and in his spirit. He came to be the Lamb with- out spot, who, by sacrifice of himself once made, should take away the sins of the world, and sin, as Saint Johii saith, was not in liim. Bat all we the rest, al- though baptized, and born again in Christ, yet offend in many things; and if we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. Articles of Religion.

Uime sin cha'n eil comas aitbreachais air aicheadh dhoibhsan a thuiteas ann an peacadh an deigh baistidh. An deigh dhuinn an SpioradNaomh fhaghail, faodaidh sinn tniteam bho'n ghras tha air a thoirt dhninn, agus tuiteam ann am peacadh, agus le gras Dhe faod- aidh sinn eiridh a ris, agus ar beatha a leasuchadh. Agus air an aubhar sin tha iadsan ri bhi air an diteadh, a deir, nach urr- ainn iad peacachadh tuille am feadh sa bhios iad beo ann so, agus a tha ag aicheadh mhaith- eanais do mheud sa ni fior aith- reachas.

Of Sin after Baptism. |V[OT every deadly sin wil- 1^ lingj^y committed after Baptism is sin against the Holy Ghost, and unpardonable. Wherefore the grant of re- pentance is not to be denied to such as fall into sin after Baptism. After we have re- ceived the Holy Ghost, we may de])art from grace given, and fall into sin, and by the grace of God we may arise again, and amend our lives. And therefore they are to be con- demned, which say, they can no more sin as long as they live here, or deny the place of forgiveness to such as truly re- pent. XVII. Of Predestination and Election. PREDESTINATION to Life is the everlasting purpose of God, whereby (before the foundations of the world were laid) he hath constantly decreed by his counsel secret to us, to deliver from curse and damna- tion those whom he hath chosen in Christ out of mankind, and to bring them by Christ to ever- lasting salvation, as vessels made to honour. Wherefore, they which he hath endued with so excellent a benefit of God he called according to God's pur- pose by his Spirit working in due season : they through Grace obey the calling: they be justi- fied freely : they be made sons of God by adoption : they be made like the image of his only- begotten Son Jesus Christ : they G G Poncan a ChreidimJi. deanamh coslach ri iomhaigh aoii ghin Mhic Iosa Criosd : tha iad a gluasad gu diadhaidh ann an deagh oibribh, agus fadheoidh, le trocair Dhe, gheibh iad sonas «ioiTuidh.

Of tie Authority of the Church. THE Church hath power to decree Rites or Ceremonies, and authority in controversies of Faith : And yet it is not lawful for the Church to ordain any thing that is contrary to God's Word Avritten, neither may it so expound one place of Scripture, that it be repugnant to another. Wherefore, although the Church be a witness and a keeper of holy Writ, yet, as it ought not to decree any thing against the same, so besides the same ought it not to enforce any thing to he believed for necessity of Sal- vation.

XXV. Of the Sacraments. SACRAMENTS ordained of Christ be not only badges or tokens of Christian men's profession, but rather they be cer- tain sure witnesses, and effectual signs of grace, and God's good Avill towards us. by the which he doth work invisibly in us, and doth not only quicken, but also strengthen and confirm our Faith in bim. There are two Sacraments or- dained of Christ our Lord in the Gospel, that is to sa}^ Baptism, and the Supper of the Lord. Those five commonly called Sacraments, that is to saj', Con- firmation, Penance, Orders, Ma- trimony, and extreme Unction, are not to be counted for Sacra- ments of the Gospel, being such as have grown partlj-- of the corrupt following of th e Apostles, partly are states of life allowed in the Scriptures ; but yet have not like nature of Sacraments with Baptism, and the Loi'd's Supper, for that they have not any visible sign or ceremony or- dained of God.

Neither is the effect of Christ's ordinance taken away by their wickedness, nor the grace of God's gilts diminished from such as by faith and rightly do receive the Sacraments ministered unto them; which be etlectual, be- cause of Christ's institution and promise, although they be minis- tered by evil men.

The Baptism of young Children is in any wise to be retained in the Church, as most agreeable with the institution of Christ. XXYIII. Of the Lord's Sujjjjer. THE Supper of the Lord is not only a sign of the love that Christians ought to have among themselves one to an- other ; but rather is a Sacra- ment of our Redemption by Christ's death : insomuch that to such as rightly, worthily, and with faith receive the same, the Bread which we break is a partaking of the Body of Christ ; and likewise the Cup of Blessing is a partaking of the Blood of Christ.

The Body of Christ is given, taken, and eaten, in the iSupper, only after an heavenlj' and spi- ritual manner. And the mean whereb}' the Body of Christ is received and eaten in the Sup^ per is Faith. The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was not by Christ's or- dinance reserved, carried about, lifted up, or worshipped. XXTX. Of the Wicked ichich sat not the Body of Christ in the use of the Lord's Supper. THE Wicked, and such as be void of a lively faith, al- though they do carnally and visibly press with their teeth (as Saint Augustine saith) the Sacratnent of the Body and Blood of Christ, yet in no wise are they partakers of Christ : but rather, to their condemna- tion, do eat and drink the sign or Sacrament of so great a thing.

XXXVII. Mun Uachdaran. THA ant-ard chumhachd aig morachd na Ban-Righ;\nn an Righeachd so Shasunn, agus thairis air a tighearnas eile, dhise buinidh ard Eiaghladh uile staidean na Righeachd so, anns gach uile chuis a thaobh Eaglais no 'n tuadh, agus cha'neil i, ni mo bu choir dh'i bhi fo smachd do reachd Coigreach bho riogh- achd eile. Ge do thug sinn an t-ard Riaghladh do Mhorachd na Ban- Righ, leis an urramsa tha sinn a tuigsinn, gu bheil inntinibh cuid do mhuinntir thoibheumach aig faotuinnoilbheum, gidheadh cha d'thoir sinn d'ar Prionnsaibh 684 XXXVI. Of Consecrafion oj Bishons and Ministers. THE Book of Consecration of Archbishops and Bi- shops, and Ordering of Priests and Deacons, lately set fcrth in the time of Edward the Sixth, and confirmed at the same time b}' authority of Parliament, doth contain all things necessary to such Consecration and Order- ing : neither hath it any thing, that of itself is superstitious and ungodly. And therefore whoso- ever are consecrated or ordered according to the Rites of that Book, since the second year of the fore-named King Edioard unto this time, or hereafter shall be consecrated or ordered ac- cording to the same Rites ; we decree all such to be rightly, orderly, and lawfully consecrated and ordered. XXXVII. Of file Civil Magis. t rates. THE Queen's Majesty hath the chief power in this Realm of England, and other her Dominions, unto whom the chief Government of all Estates of this realm, whether they be Ecclesiastical or Civil, in all causes doth appertain, and is not, nor ought to be, subject to any foreign Jurisdiction. Where we attribute to the Queen's Majesty the chief Go- vernment, b}" which Titles we understand the minds of some slanderous folks to be offended ; we give not to our Princes the mi- nistering either of God's Word, or of the Sacraments, the which Articles of Religion. frithealadh Focail De, no na Sacramaidean,mai' tha na reach- daibh a chuireadh a mach bho chionn ghoirid le 'r Ban-Riu;h JEalasaJd mar an ceudna a toirt fianuis fhoilaiseacb ; ach an 't- arduglidaras sin anihain, a chi sinn bha air a thoirt do gbnath do uile Phrionnsaibh diadhaidh anns na Scriobtuiribb naomh le Dia fein ; se sin ra radh, g^u'n riagbladh iad gacb uile cbeum agus staid a chuir Dia fo'n curam, co dhiu bhuineadh e do'n Eaglais no do'n Fbearann, agus gu smachduicbeadh iad le claidh- eamb an lagh lucbd-ceannairc agus aingeachd. Ni bbeil Ughdaras air bith aig Easbuig na Roimke ann an Eigbeacbd Shasunn. , Faodaidb lagb na Rigbeachd ; daoine Cviosdaidh pbeanasacb- ' adb le bas, airson coiribb uamh- ara agus oilteil. Tba e lagbail do Chriosduinn- ean air iarrtas an Uacb drain airm a gbiulan, agus seirbbeis a dbeanamh ann am cogaibb. tbing tbe Injunctions also lately set forth by Elizabeth our Queen do most plainly testify ; but that only prerogative, which we see to have been given always to all godly Princes in holy Scriptures by God hiinself ; that is, that they should rule all states and degrees committed to their charge by God, whether they be Ecclesiastical or Tem- poral, and restrain with the civil sword the stubborn and evil- doers. XXXVIII. Mu Mhaoin Dha- oine Criosdaidh, nach eil cumanta. CIIA n'eil beartas , agus Maoin Chrosduinnean cum- anta, a thaobh ceartais an coir, agus an ceart sealbh, mar a deir Anabaisdicb araid gu mearach- dach le uaill, Gidheadh bu choir do na h-uile dhuine, do leithid a nithe agus a tha aige deirc a thoirt do n'bhochd gu fial, a reir a chomais. The Bishop of Rome bath no jurisdiction in this Realm of England, The Laws of the Realm may punish Christian men with death, for heinous and grievou* offences. It is lawful for Christian men, at the commandment of the Magistrate, to wear weapons, and serve in the wars. XXXVIII. Of Christian men's Goods, which are not common. THE Riches and Goods of Christians are not commou, as touching the right, title, and j possession of the same, as cei-- ' tain Anabaptists do falsely i boast. Notwithstanding, every ' man ought, of such things as he j possesseth, liberally to give ; alms to the poor, according to I his ability. XXXIX. Mu mhionn duine XXXIX. Of a Christian mans Criosdaidh.
