AS THESE prayers and suffrages folowing, as set furth of most godly zeale for edifying and stirringe of devotion of all true faithfull christen hartes: so is it thoughte convenient in this commune prayer of procession to have it set furth and used in the vulgar tungue: and it shall be every christen mans parte reverently to use the same, to the honour and glory of almyghty god, and the profitte of their owne soules. And such amonge the people as have bokes, and can reade, may reade them quietly and softly to them selfe, and suche as can not reade, let them quietly and attentifely give audience in time of the said praiers, havyng their myndes erect to almighty god, and devoutly praying in theyr hartes, the same petitions whiche do entre in at their eares, so that with one sounde of the hart and one accorde, God may be glorified in his churche.

¶ And it is to be remembered, that that whiche is printed in blacke letters, is to be sayde or songe of the priest with an audible voyce, that is to saye, so loude and so playnely, that it maye well be understande of the hearers: And that which is in the redde, is to be aunswered of the quiere [choir] soberly and devoutly.
