"His Majesty having, according to His Declaration
of the 25th of October, 1660, granted His Commission under the Great Seal, to several Bishops and
other Divines, to review the Book of Common Prayer,
and to prepare such Alterations and Additions as
they thought sit to offer: Afterwards the Convocations of the Clergy of both the Provinces of Canterbury and Yorke were by His Majesty called and assembled, and are now sitting. And His Majesty hath
been pleased to authorize and require the Presidents
of the said Convocations, and other the Bishops and
Clergy of the same, to review the said Book of Common Prayer, and the Book of the Form and Manner
of making and consecrating of Bishops, Priests, and
Deacons; and that, after mature Consideration, they
should make such Additions or Alterations in the said
Books respectively as to them should seem meet and
convenient; and should exhibit and present the same
to His Majesty in Writing, for His Majesty's further
Consideration, Allowance, or Confirmation. Since
which Time, upon full and mature Deliberation, they,
the said Presidents, Bishops, and Clergy of both Provinces, have accordingly reviewed the said Books, and
have made, exhibited, and presented to His Majesty
in Writing, some Alterations, which they think sit to
be inserted in the same, and some additional Prayers
to the said Book of Common Prayer, to be used upon
proper and emergent Occasions.
"All which His Majesty having duly considered,
doth, with the Advice of His Council, fully approve
and allow the same; and doth recommend it to the
House of Peers, that the said Books of Common
Prayer, and of the Form of Ordination and Consecration of Bishops, Priests, and Deacons, with those
Alterations and Additions, be the Book which, in and
by the intended Act of Uniformity, shall be appointed
to be used, by all that officiate in all Cathedral and
Collegiate Churches and Chapels, and in all Chapels
of Colleges and Halls in both the Universities, and
the Colleges of Eaton and Winchester, and in all Parish Churches and Chapels within the Kingdom of
England, Dominion of Wales, and Town of Berwicke upon Tweed, and by all that make or consecrate
Bishops, Priests, or Deacons, in any of the said Places,
under such Sanctions and Penalties as the Parliament
shall think fit.
"Given at Our Court at Whitehall, the 24th Day
of February, 1661."
