Strong in a sense of his own clerical position, he believed in uniform as devoutly as any Ritualist, but he would not plagiarise the Anglican livery and walk about in a modified soutane and round hat like "our brethren in the Established Church," as Mr. Beecham kindly called them.
Three or four well-known local clergy had made the most outspoken speeches, declaring that there must be room made within the church for the liberal wing, as well as for the Ritualist wing; that both had a right to the shelter of the common and ancestral fold; and that the time had come when the two forms of Christianity now prevailing in Christendom should be given full and equal rights within the Church of the nation.
Heritage plucked Dougal by the shoulder and lifted him to his feet. "For God's sake, boy," he cried, "tell us what you know!" "Will ye help?" "Of course, you little fool." "Then swear," said the ritualist. From a grimy wallet he extracted a limp little volume which proved to be a damaged copy of a work entitled Sacred Songs and Solos. "Here!
Monsignore Capel ascribes these extraordinary developments in great measure to the action of that section of the Church of England which is known as the High Church or Ritualist division of the Establishment.
You must acquire at least as much toleration for the Ritualist as I am glad to notice you are acquiring for the thief.
It is all the difference between the Mass ceremonial in a Ritualist church and in a Catholic church the historical sense is violated in one case and satisfied in the other. What is once really dead can never revive in the same form at best we get a cast from the dead face.
To-morrow morning, he supposed, he should hear her step on the stairs, towards eight o'clock should hear it passing his door in going, and an hour later in coming back and should know that she had been to a little Ritualist church close by, where what Lady Findon called 'fooleries' went on, in the shape of 'daily celebrations' and 'vestments' and 'reservation. How lightly she stepped; what a hidden act it was; never spoken of, except once, between him and her!
What has concerned me most is the disappearance of my old friend's daughter, in whom you, I know, take a deep interest. All I know is that she went away with the vicar and his wife, and it is my belief that they had an object in spiriting her off; but whether to shut her up in a Romish or Ritualist convent is more than I can say.
The conscious ritualists are generally satisfied with a few very simple and elementary signs; the unconscious ritualists are not satisfied with anything short of the whole of human life, being almost insanely ritualistic. The first is called a ritualist because he invents and remembers one rite; the other is called an anti-ritualist because he obeys and forgets a thousand.
These were the sort of ceremonies that, without ever having been so established by law, our ritualists have practically established by custom; and the offence of the ritualist doctrine as held in those days, and as illustrated by Pocklington, lay in the following tenets ascribed to him: that it was men's duty to bow to altars as to the throne of the Great God; that the Eucharist was the host and held corporeal presence therein; that there was in the Church a distinction between holy places and a Holy of holies; that the canons and constitutions of the Church were to be obeyed without examination.
