(4) Some new Collects were introduced, changes made in others, and "Church" substituted for "Congregation."

(5) The Exhortation in giving notice of the Communion was ordered to be read on the Sunday or some holiday before its admin→ istration, and persons were required to give notice of their intention to communicate the admonition against Transubstantiation was also introduced.

(6) The Baptismal Service for those of Riper Years; the Form of Prayer to be used at Sea; and the last five prayers in the Visiation of the Sick, were added: and the absolution of the sick was left to the curate's discretion.
