The Sunday School Book contains a very ample provision of chants, both Anglican, single and double, and Gregorian. The double Anglican chants may be sung to the Psalms and Canticles, all the voices uniting in all the verses, in the manner cus- tomary among us. The single Anglican chants are usually sung an- tiphonally, one choir or set of singers singing one verse, and another singing the next verse, and so on through the Psalm or Canticle ; and at the close both unite in the Gloria Patri. The double and single chants are sung in four-part harmony. Gregorian Tones consist of four parts: the Intonation, the open- ing notes separated from the rest of the chant by a colon : , which is used on Sundays and Festivals to every verse of the Benedictus, Magnificat, and Nunc Dimittis; to both verses of the Gloria Patri; to the first verse of every other Canticle, and of each Psalm or portion of Psalm. The Psalms and Canticles in this book are marked with the colon so that the proper place for the Intonation is readily and plainly seen. The Dominant, or reciting note, follows the Intonation. In some of the Tones — the 2nd, 5th, and 8th — it runs through two bars. When this occurs, the bar between these notes is considered left out in the words, and the recitation is kept up to the second bar. Then comes the Mediation, a short cadence in the middle; and the chant closes with the Finalis, i. e., Ending, or Final Cadence. The Gregorian Tones are usually sung in unison, though they may be sung in four-part harmony. One set of singers, sings the first jmrt of a verse to the colon, or line division 1 1 , and another takes up the second part and carries it to the end of the verse. At the end of the Psalm or Canticle both sets of singers unite in the Gloria Patri.

I am the Lord thy God. Thou shalt have no other gods before Me. [Thou shalt not make unto thee any gra- ven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me; and shewing mercy unto thou- sands of them that love Me, and keep My commandments.] What is meant by this Commandment? Answer. We should fear, love, and trust in God above all things. The Second Commandment. Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guilt- less that taketh His Name in vain. What is meant by this Commandment t Answer. We should so fear and love God as not to curse, swear, conjure, lie, or deceive, by His Name, but call upon Him in every time of need, and worship Him with prayer, praise, and thanksgiving. The Third Commandment. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. [Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: but the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maid- servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day; wherefore the Lord blessed the sab- bath day, and hallowed it.] What is meant by this Commandment? Answer. We should so fear and love God as not to despise His Word and the preaching of the Gospel, but deem it holy, and willingly hear and learn it. The Fourth Commandment. Honor thy father and thy moth- er, that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. What is meant by this Commandment? Answer. We should so fear and love God as not to despise nor displease our parents and superiors, but honor, serve, obey, love, and esteem them. 16 QTt)t Small (Tatcdiism. The Fifth Commandment. Thou slialt not kill. What is meant by this Commandment f Answer. We should so fear and love God as not to do our neighbor any bodily harm or injury, but rather assist and com- fort him in danger and want. The Sixth Commandment. Thou shalt not commit adul- tery. What is meant by this Commandment? Answer. We should so fear and love God as to be chaste and pure in our words and deeds, each one also loving and honor- ing his wife or her husband. The Seventh Commandment. Thou shalt not steal. What is meant by this Commandment? Answer. We should so fear and love God, as not to rob our neighbor of his money or property, nor bring it into our possession by unfair dealing or fraudulent means, but rather assist him to improve and protect it. The Eighth Commandment. Thou slialt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. What is meant by this Commandment? Answer. We should so fear and love (rod as not deceitfully to belie, betray, slan- der, nor raise injurious reports against our neighbor, but apologize for him. speak well of him, and put the most charitable con- struction on all his actions. The Xinth Commandment. Thou shalt not covet thy ueio-h- bor's house. W hat is meant by this Commandmentt Answer. We should so fear and love God as not to desire by craftiness to gain possession of our neighbor's inheritance or home, or to obtain it under the pretext of a legal right, but be ready to assist and serve him in the preservation of his own. The Tenth Commandment. Thou shalt not covet thy neigh- bor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's. What is meant by this Commandment? Answer. We should so fear and love God as not to alienate our neighbor's wife from him, entice away his servants, nor let loose his cattle, but use our endeavors that they may remain and discharge their duty to him. What does God declare concerning all these Commandrnentst Answer. He says: I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me: and shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me and keep My com- mandments. What is meant by this declarationt Answer. God threatens to punish all those who transgress these commandments. We should, therefore, dread His displeas- ure, and not act contrarily to these com- mandments. But He promises grace and every blessing to all who keep them. We should, therefore, love and trust in Him, and cheerfully do what He has command- ed us. 17 PART II. &i)f Small (Catufjism. THE CREED. In the plain form in which it is to be taught by the head of a family. The First Aeticle. Of Creation. I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. What is meant by this Article* Answer. I believe that God has created me and all that exists; that He has given and still preserves to me my body and soul, with all my limbs and senses, my reason and all the faculties of my mind, together with my raiment, food, home, and family, and all my property; that He daily provides me abundantly with all the necessaries of life, protects me from all danger, and pre- serves me and guards me against all evil; all which He does out of pure, paternal, and divine goodness and mercy, without any merit or worthiness in me; for all which I am in duty bound to thank, praise, serve, and obey Him. This is most certainly true. The Second Aeticle. Of Redemption. And in Jesus Christ His only Son, our Lord ; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary ; suffered under Pon- tius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heav- en, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty ; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. What is meant by this Article* Answer. I believe that Jesus Christ, true God, begotten of the Father from eternity, and also true man, born of the Virgin Mary, is my Lord; who has redeemed me, a lost and condemned creature, secured and deliv- ered me from all sins, from death, and from the power of the devil, not with silver and gold, but with His holy precious blood, and with His innocent suffer ings and death; in order that I might be His, live under Him in His kingdom, and serve Him in everlast- ing righteousness, innocence and blessed- ness; even as He is risen from the dead, and lives and reigns to all eternity. This is most certainly true. The Third Article. Of Sanctification. I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy Christian Church, the Communion of Saints; the For- giveness of sins ; the Resurrection of the body; and the Life ever- lasting. Amen. What is meant by this Article? Answer. I believe that I cannot by my own reason or strength believe in Jesus Christ my Lord, or come to Him; but the Holy Ghost has called me through the gos- pel, enlightened me by His gifts, and sancti- fied and preserved me in the true faith; in like manner as He calls, gathers, enliehtens, and sanctities the whole Christian Church on earth, and preserves it in union with Jesus Christ in the true faith; in which Christian Church lie daily forgives abund- antly all my sins, and the sins of all believ- ers, and wiil raise up me and all the dead at the last day, and will grant everlasting life to me and to all who believe in Christ. This is most certainly true. 18 £i)t j$mall (Tattrtism. PART THE LORD'S PRAYER. In the plain form in which it is to be taught by the head of a family. Introduction. Our Father who art in heaven. What is meant by this Introduction? Answer. God would thereby affection- ately encourage us to believe that He is truly our Father, and that we are His chil- dren indeed, so that we may call upon Him with all cheerfulness and confidence, even as beloved children entreat their affection- ate parent. First Petition. Hallowed be Thy name. What is meant by this Petition? Answer. The name of God is indeed holy in itself; but we pray in this petition that it may be hallowed also by us. How is this effected ? Answer. When the Word of God is taught in its truth and purity, and we, as the children of God, lead holy lives in ac- cordance with it; to this may our blessed Father in heaven help us! But whoever teaches and lives otherwise than as God's Word prescribes, profanes the name of God among us; from this preserve us, Heavenly Father! Second Petition. Thy kingdom come. What is meant by this Petition? Answer. The kingdom of God comes indeed of itself, without our prayer; but we pray in this petition that it may come unto us also. When is tin's effected ? Answer. When our heavenly Father gives us His Holy Spirit, so that by His grace we believe His holy Word, and live a godly life here on earth, and in heaven for ever. Third Petition. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. What is meant by this Petition? Answer. The good and gracious will of God is done indeed without our prayer; but we pray in this petition that it may be done by us also. When is this effected? Answer. When God frustrates and brings to naught every evil counsel and purpose, which would hinder us from hal- lowing the name of God, and preventing His kingdom from coming to us, such as the will of the devil, of the world, and of our own flesh; and when He strengthens us, and keeps us steadfast in His Word and in the faith, even unto our end. This is His gracious and good will. Fourth Petition. Give us this day our daily bread. What is meant by this Petition. Answer. God gives indeed without our prayer, even to the wicked also their daily bread; but we pray in this petition that He would make us sensible of His benefits, and enable us to receive our daily bread with thanksgiving. What is implied in the words bread?" "Our daily iy Answer. All things that pertain to the wants and the support of this present life; such as food, raiment, money, goods, house and land, and other property;" a believing &f)c Small ©atfdjtsm. spouse and good children; trustworthy servants and faithful magistrates; favor- able seasons, peace and health; education and honor; true friends, good neighbors, and the like. Fifth Petition. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. What is meant by this Petition? Answer. We pray in this petition, that our heavenly Father would not regard our sins, nor deny us our requests on account of them; for we are not worthy of any thing for which we pray, and have not merited it; but that He would grant us all things through grace, although we daily commit much sin, and deserve chastisement alone. We will therefore, on our part, both heartily forgive, and also readily do good to, those who may injure or offend us. Sixth Petition. And lead us not into tempta- tion. Wliat is meant by this Petition? Answer. God indeed tempts no one to sin; but we pray in this petition that God would so guard and preserve us, that the devil, the world, and our own flesh, may not deceive us, nor lead us into error and unbelief, despair, and other great and shameful sins; and that, though we may be thus tempted, we may nevertheless finally prevail and gain the victory. Seventh Petition. But deliver us from evil. What is meant by this Petition? Answer. We pray in this petition, as in a summary, that our heavenly Father would deliver us from all manner of evil, whether it affect the body or soul, property or char- acter, and, at last, when the hour of death shall arrive, grant us a happy end, and graciously take us from this world of sor- row to Himself in heaven. Conclusion. For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. What is meant by the word "AmenV Answer. That I should be assured that such petitions are acceptable to our heav- enly Father, and are heard by Him; for He Himself has commanded us to pray in this manner, and has promised that He will hear us. Amen, Amen, that is, Yea, yea, it shall be so. PART IV. THE SACRAMENT OF HOLY BAPTISM. In the plain form in which it is to be taught by the head of a family. I. What is Ba j it ism? Answer. Baptism is not simply water, but it is the water comprehended in God's command, and connected with God's Word. What is that Wordof&odf A nswer. It is that which our Lord ,Iesns Christ spake, as it is recorded in the last chapter of Matthew, verse 19 : "Go ye, and £be .Small Cattdjiam. teach all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." II. What gifts or benefits does Baptism confer? Answer. It worketh forgiveness of sins, delivers from death and the devil, and con- fers everlasting salvation on all who believe it, as the "Word and promise of God de- clare. W liat are such words and promises of God? Answer. Those which our Lord Jesus Christ spake, as they are recorded in the last chapter of Mark, verse 16 : "He that be- lieveth and is baptized, shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned." III. Hoiv can muter produce such great effects* Answer . It is not the water indeed that produces these effects, but the Word of God, which accompanies and is connected with the water, and our faith, which relies on the Word of God, connected with the water. For the water without the Word of God, is simply water and no baptism. But when connected with the Word of God. it is a baptism, that is, a gracious water of life, and a "washing of regeneration" in the lluly Ghost; as St. Paul says to Titus, in the third chapter, verses 5-8 : "According to His mercy He saved us. by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; which lie shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour: that be- ing justified by His grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eter- nal life. This is a faithful saying." IV. What dfjes such baptizing wit-h water signify? Answer. It signifies that the old Adam in us is to be drowned and destroyed by dai- ly sorrow and repentance, together with all sins and evil lusts; and that again the new man should daily come forth and rise, that shall live in the presence of God in right- eousness and purity for ever. Where is it so written ! Answer. St. Paul, in the Epistle to the Romans, chapter ii, verse 4. says: -We are buried with Christ by baptism into death: that like as He was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life." OF CONFESSION What is confession? Answer. Confession consists of two parts: the one is, that we confess our sins; the other, that we receive absolution or forgiveness through the pastor as of God himself, in no wise doubting, but firmly believing, that our sins are thus forgiven before God in heaven. What sins ought ?ve to confess? Answer. In the presence of God we should acknowledge ourselves guilty of all manner of sins, even of those which we do not ourselves perceive; as we do in the Lord's Prayer. But in the presence of the pastor we should confess those sins alone of which we have knowledge, and which we feel in our hearts. Which are thesi .' Answer. Here reflect in your condition, according to the Ten Commandments, namely: Whether you are a father or mother, a son or daughter, a master or mistress, a manservant or maidservant— whether you have been disobedient, un- faithful, slothful -whether you have in- jured any one by words or actions— whether you have stolen, neglected, or wasted aught, or done other evil. 21 PART V. £))t .Small Cattcljism. THE SACRAMENT OF THE ALTAR, OK THE LORD'S SUPPER. In the plain form in which it is to be taught by the head of a family. What is the Sacrament of the Altar f Answer. It is the true body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, under the bread and wine, given unto us Christians to eat and drink, as it was instituted by Christ himself. Where is it so writtent Answer. The holy Evangelists, Matthew, Mark, and Luke, together with St. Paul, write thus: "Our Lord Jesus Christ, the same night in which He was betrayed, took bread: and when He had given thanks, He brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is My body, which is given for you: this do, in remembrance of Me." "After the same manner also He took the cup, when He had supped, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying. Drink ye all of it; this cup is the new testament in My blood, which is shed for you, for the remis- sion of sins: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of Me." W hat benefits a re derived from such eat- ing and drinking i Answer. They are pointed out in these words: "Given and shed for you, for the remission of sins." Xamely, through these words, the remission of sins, life and salva- tion are granted unto us in the Sacrament. For where there is remission of sins, there are also life and salvation. How can the bodily eating and drinking produce such great effects f Answer. The eating and the drinking, indeed, do not produce them, but the words which stand here, namely: "Given, and shed for you, for the remission of sins." These words are, besides the bodily eating and drinking, the chief things in the Sac- rament; and he who believes these words, has that which they declare and set forth, namely, the remission of sins. Who is it, then, that receives this Sacra- ment worthily t A nswer. Fasting and bodily preparation are indeed a good external discipline; but he is truly worthy and well prepared, who believes these words: "Given, and shed for you, for the remission of sins." But he wlio does not believe these w r ords, or who doubts, is unworthy and unfit; for the words: "For you," require truly believ- ing hearts. MORNING AND EVENING PRAYER, In the plain form in which it is to be taught by the head of a family Morning. ^f In the Morning, when thou risest, thou shalt say: In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. *[ Then, kneeling or standing, thou shalt say the Apostles' Creed and the Lord's Prayer. ^f Then mayest thou say this Prayer ■ I give thanks unto Thee, heavenly Fa- ther, through Jesus Christ Thy dear Son, 22 Qtf)£ Small Cattd)i.sm. that Tbou hast protected me through the night from all danger and harm; and I be- seech Thee to preserve and keep me, this day also, from all sin and evil; that in all my thoughts, words, and deeds, I may serve and please Thee. Into Thy hands I com- mend my body and soul, and all that is mine. Let Thy holy angel have charge concerning me, that the wicked one have no power over me. Amen.

Into Thy hands I commend my body and soul, and all that is mine. Let Thy holy angel have charge concerning me, that the wicked one have no power over me. Amen. \ And then lie down in peace, and sleep. BLESSING AND THANKSGIVING AT TABLE. In the plain form in which they are to be taught by the head of a family. Before Meat. If Before meat, the members of the family stand- ing at the table reverently and with folded hands, there shall be said: The eyes of all w r ait upon Thee, O Lord: and Thou givest them their meat in due season. Thou openest Thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing. *f Then shall be said the Lord's Prayer, and after that this Prayer: O Lord God, heavenly Father, bless unto us these Thy gifts, which of Thy tender kindness Thou hast bestowed upon us, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear Him: in those that hope in His mercy. ^f Then shall be said the Lords Prayer, and after that this Prayer: We give thanks to Thee, O God our Fa- ther, for all Thy benefits, through Jesus Christ our Lord, Who with Thee liveth and reigneth, for ever and ever.

In His days shall the | righteous | flourish || And abundance of peace so | long as the | moon en- J clureth.

They that dwell in the wilderness shall | bow be- | fore Him 1 1 And His | enemies shall | lick the | dust. The kings of Tarshish and of the isles | shall bring | presents || The kings of Sheba and | Seba shall | offer | gifts. Yea, all kings shall fall | down be- 1 fore Him 1 1 All | nations shall | serve | Him. For He shall deliver the needy | when he | crieth || The poor also, and | him that | hath no | helper.

He shall redeem their soul from deceit and | vio- ] lence |] And precious shall their | blood be | in His | sight. And He shall live, and to Him shall be given of the | gold of | Sheba || Prayer shall also be made for Him continually, and | daily shall | He be | praised. There shall be a handfull of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains: the fruit thereof shall | shake like | Lebanon || And they of the city shall | flourish like | grass of the | earth. His Name shall endure for ever; His Name shall be continued as I Ions; as the | sun II And men shall be blessed in Him; all | nations shall | call Him | blessed. Blessed be the Lord God, the | God of | Israel 1 1 Who only | doeth | wondrous | things. f And blessed be His glorious | Name for | ever || And let the whole earth be filled with His glory.
