| | On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.
| | _People_. Lord, have mercy upon us, and write these thy laws in | our hearts, we beseech thee.
_Or else instead of the Ten Commandments or the Summary of the Law, may be sung or said on week-days, not being Great Festivals, as followeth_:
Lord, have mercy upon us.
_Christ, have mercy upon us_.
Lord, have mercy upon us.
_Then the Presbyter shall say_,
The Lord be with you.
_Answer_. And with thy spirit.
_Presbyter_. Let us pray.
_Then the Presbyter, turning to the Holy Table, shall say the Collect, or Collects; and then the Presbyter, or some other Presbyter or Deacon, shall read the Epistle, saying_, The Epistle [_or_, The portion of Scripture appointed for the Epistle] is written in the------chapter of------beginning at the------verse.
_And, the Epistle ended, he shall say_, Here endeth the Epistle.
_Then shall the Presbyter, or some other Presbyter or Deacon, read the Gospel, saying_, The Holy Gospel is written in the------chapter of the Gospel according to------, beginning at the------verse; _and the people, all standing up, shall devoutly sing or say_,
Glory be to thee, O Lord.
_And, the Gospel ended, the people shall in like manner sing or say_,
Thanks be to thee, O Lord, for this thy glorious Gospel.
_Then shall be sung or said this Creed following, the people still reverently standing_.
I believe in one G.o.d the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, And of all things visible and invisible:
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of G.o.d, Begotten of his Father before all worlds, G.o.d of G.o.d, Light of Light, Very G.o.d of Very G.o.d, Begotten, not made, Being of one substance with the Father; By whom all things were made: Who for us men, and for our salvation came down from heaven, And was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, And was made man, And was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried, And the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures, And ascended into heaven, And sitteth on the right hand of the Father. And he shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and the dead: Whose kingdom shall have no end.
And I believe in the Holy Ghost, The Lord, and Giver of life, Who proceedeth from the Father and the Son, Who with the Father and the Son together is wors.h.i.+pped and glorified, Who spake by the Prophets.
And I believe one Catholic and Apostolic Church. I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins. And I look for the Resurrection of the dead, And the life of the world to come. Amen.

_If there be a Sermon it followeth here_.
_When the Presbyter giveth learning of the Holy Communion he may, at his discretion, use the first or the second of the Exhortations appended to this Liturgy_.
_The third Exhortation appended to this Liturgy may be used at the discretion of the Presbyter before the Offertory, the people standing_.
_Then the Presbyter, or Deacon, shall say_,
