Down to the sub-deacon it has retained the whole of their hierarchy; and, like them, has its deans, rural deans, chapters, prebends, archdeacons, rectors, and vicars; a liturgy, taken in a great measure, from the Roman Catholic liturgy; and composed like that, of Psalms, Canticles, the three creeds, litanies, epistles, gospels, prayers, and responses.
He hastened back, and let the Archbishop know, who approached the fountain, and recognized Ogier. The first impulse of the good and generous Turpin was to save his friend, for whom he felt the warmest attachment; but his archdeacons and knights, who also recognized Ogier, reminded the Archbishop of the oath which the Emperor had exacted of them all.
And this reminds me that though archdeacons, and bishops, and even an archbishop, in those days might be and were very important and very powerful personages, they were all very small and insignificant in comparison with the great King Edward, the king who at this time was looked upon as one of the most mighty and magnificent kings in all the world.
The archdeacons were expected in their visitations to inquire into the practice of enchantment and magic within the parishes and to make report. In the reign of Elizabeth it became no light duty. The church set itself to suppress both the consulter and the consulted. By the largest number of recorded cases deal of course with the first class.
Finally, the archdeacons or their officials always stood ready to enforce an accounting by the outgoing wardens to the parishioners or their representatives. Numerous instances are found in the court records of the enforcing of this duty.
At three-five a cardinal arrives with his attendants; later some bishops; then a number of archdeacons all in striking colors that add to the show. At three-ten a procession of priests passed along, with crucifix.
"There are plenty of good scouts, old boy, who would never make good archdeacons." "Is there?" said Robin. "Why not? I know what scouts does, but what does archdeacons does?" And with that he had his father stumped. Dion had not been long enough at Welsley to dive into all its mysteries. On the evening of the third day Dion told Rosamund that he must go to London on the following morning.
The King had twice at least summoned its "proctors" to Great Councils before 1295, but it was then only that the complete representation of the Church was definitely organized by the insertion of a clause in the writ which summoned a bishop to Parliament requiring the personal attendance of all archdeacons, deans, or priors of cathedral churches, of a proctor for each cathedral chapter, and two for the clergy within his diocese.
"The personal character of Dean Ethbin," he said, at last, "is not exactly square. He acts a trimming part. But now and again he sums up a situation. He says that the English people do not choose to keep up an Established Church which shall be independent of its Sovereign and Legislature. I have seen most of the bishops and archdeacons.
The Belgians are generally considered as very stubborn and zealous Roman Catholics. But I do not believe that either in stubbornness or in zeal they equal the Irish. And this is the fruit of three centuries of Protestant archbishops, bishops, archdeacons, deans, and rectors. And yet where is the wonder? Is this a miracle that we should stand aghast at it? Not at all.
