Answ. The version which the Bishop followed, hath a Rite, not a Ceremony. Now, of Rites is certain, that they belong to the common-wealth, as well as to the Church. For injure Politico, sui sunt, imperati & solemnes ritus, saith qJunius.

Fourthly, saith the B. they fast and pray here in this Verse; (meaning the 31.) fast the eve, the fourteenth, and so then, the day following, to be holy day of course.
Answ. The latin version, which the B. followeth, and whereupon he buildeth this reason, readeth the 31. Verse very corruptly, and no ways according to the original, as will easily appear to any who can compare them together. Wherefore the best interpreters take the fasting and prayer spoken of Vers. 31. to be meant of the time before their delivery. Now, after they were delivered, they decreed that the matters of their fasting and crying, should be remembered upon the days of Purim; which were to solemnize that preservation, quam Jejunio & precibus fuerant a Deo consequuti, as saith Tremellius.
