A discourse concerning liturgies

Agobardus, Arch-Bishop of Lions (famous, as for his opposition to Images, so for his endeavours to reform the corrupt Service of those times) could not well like that common Roman Form. The Body of our Lord Jesus Christ, &c. since he was only for Scripture expressions ⟨p. 91⟩in the public offices; Cum praeter Scripturas admittere in sacris officiis nihil vellet. Whether he was wisely or piously disliked for this; they, who have a due reverence for the Scripture, are more fit to be judges, then either Baronius or his Epitomator; ob nimiam suam scrupulositatem haud quam put avit consecutus gloriam.
