believe that this Church should have been taught a form so different in this Resped from that of other Churches, with whose Liturgies in all other respects it so exactly agrees. And it is observable that if we remove this Prayer of Intercession to the same Place in which it stands in the other Liturgies, the whole Office will connect, even without any other Alteration, fully as well as it does at prefent.
