c It was ordained in the 2. Council of Laodicea,1 that many of the Psalms, and their versicles, should not be confounded one with an other: but be rehearsed in the self same form and manner as the servants of God made them. Which ordinance they of the popish church do worse observe in the Mass, then in any other place. For, either they confound pell mell for every purpose, many of the versicles which are taken out of the Psalms, as if they would make neither rime nor reason of them, or else they divide a Psalm, and take out of it certain versicles which they mingle and remingle, & so rehearse them to no purpose, and without all reason, as easily may be judged, by the sight of this manner which is here used in their Mass.
