Church's Worship thoroughly Responsive, Congregational, Reverent, Musical, and Beautiful. But while earnestly pressing for these ritual improvements on account of their undoubted devotional importance, I would venture, in conclusion, to once more remind the reader that there are weightier matters still that the greatest needs of the Church of England, at present, are a wide charity on secondary points of ritual, less mere party contention among loyal Churchmen, and far more simple and outspoken preaching of Pardon and Peace by faith in the One Sacrifice on the Cross.
