a WE have already spoken somewhat largely, of the singing & silence of the creed in the Mass. In the Mass book, it is commanded to be said on this festival day, and on the octaves thereof. There is concerning the recital of the Creed, a Decree in the third Council of Tolled, solemnized in the days of pope Pelagius the second: which expressly commandeth, That it should be recited and delivered very loudly before the Lords prayer, throughout all the Churches of Gallice and Spain, after the manner of the East Churches, and Council of Constantinople: to the end that the faith might be manifested, and have testimony, so that the hearts of the people which were purified by faith, might go & receive the body and blood of our Saviour Jesus Christ. Which Decree, manifestly confirmeth that which we have already spoken hereof elsewhere. There is also a Decree in the Council of Basil, against such as should say it by halves, as I have oftentimes seen them do,¹ when I went to Mass being then very young. Our Priests song the creed after the Almain manner, which they called the Almain creed, & it went no further then to, & homo factus est, & there they ended it. They used it when they had hast to their dinner, and were wearied to say the Creed out at length: and no doubt of it, they deal so with it even at this day, for all the decree of the Council of Basil.
