As touching the causes mentioned in this Decree, which are that the Priest may seem conveniently and aptly to say in the plural number, The Lord be with you, and, Brethren pray you for me, It may well be doubted, whether Dominus vobiscū, or Orate pro me Fratres, were any part of the Liturgy of Rome in Soter's time. For Damasus,1 which was Bishop of Rome two hundred and fifty years after that, writeth unto S. Hierome, that things were done with such simplicity in the Church of Rome in his time, that upon the Sunday there was nothing ⟨p. 68⟩else but some Epistle of the Apostle, or some Chapter of the Gospel, read openly unto the people: which whether he meant of the holy Ministration or no, I leave further to be considered.
