Synopsis

Ancient Collects And Other Prayers, Selected From Various Rituals, By W. Bright. This 19th-century devotional collection gathers prayers and collects drawn from ancient western liturgies predating and influencing Anglo-Saxon Christianity, with additional material from eastern rites. The editor describes the work as a practical selection designed to reveal devotional treasures in antique service-books, including prayers from the Gelasian, Leonine, Gregorian, and other liturgies, and from Eastern sources such as Jerusalem and Alexandria. The volume is organized by liturgical function, with sections on Morning Prayers, Prayers on the Incarnation (covering Nativity, Epiphany, the Passion, Resurrection, Ascension, and the Sending of the Holy Spirit, as well as the Second Coming), Baptismal Prayers, Eucharistic Prayers, Prayers Before and After Service, and Prayers for various graces and occasions. It also features prayers for clergy, forms for intercession, and multiple appendices that discuss the origin of Collects in the English Prayer-Book and primitive prayers for the dead. The Preface explains the translation approach and criteria for inclusion and omission, and the volume reflects scholarly notes and historical context for these ancient prayers.
