Sinopsis
Excerpt from Commentary on the Ritual of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South
The Ritual, in its present form, leaves little to be desired for the cultus of the Church in all the services for which it has been pre pared. It is to be regretted that some ministers, notwithstanding the injunction of the Discipline, neglect some of these beautiful, appropriate, and impressive forms. One reason of the neglect, it is thought, may be found in their not fully understanding the meaning and pertinency of many parts Of the Ritual - especially the portions of Holy Scripture which are used in the various forms. When this work was undertaken, it was not intended to do more than give annotations upon the sacred text thus employed. The manner in which these scriptures are frequently read shows that they are not always understood; and this suggested the propriety of explaining them.
But as there are archaisms and other things in the prayers, etc., which need explanation, it was thought expedient to make a few notes upon them also.

Excerpt from Commentary on the Ritual of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South
Two editions of Mr. Wesley's Prayer Book were published for the American Church, and it was ordered to be used, in connection with extemporaneous services, all over the Connection. But in consequence of the pioneer character of the Church - the sparse ness of population in many places - the difficulty of getting the book into circulation, and of using it where there were few or none to make the responses the Sunday Service gradually went into desuetude.
