Excerpt from The Liturgy of the Church of Sarum, Together With the Kalendar of the Same Church: Translated From the Latin, With a Pref, and Explanatory Notes by Charles Walker, With an Introd, by T. T. Carter Liturgies are the surest evidence and exponents of these momentous verities, which are embodied therein, not in word only, but in breathing forms and expressive actions - an unceasing utterance, the living voice, from age to age before god of His Church's highest act of service. It will surely be generally felt to be a boon of the greatest value, to have supplied to us in our own tongue that Liturgy which, most extensively used and of highest authority among our forefathers in mediaeval times, repre sents the Western Uses in closest connexion with our own history: nor can its practical importance be too highly estimated, inasmuch as it supplies many points of Ritual and traditionary usage, which serve to throw light on passages often subjects of doubt or questioning in our present Eucharistic Service, derived as it was mainly from this source.
