I am convinced that our concordances of the Bible could be made much less bulky and far more serviceable if some one would take the material now at hand and not only carry out more thoroughly the plan of cross reference used only sparingly by Dr. Young, but also take careful note of all repetitions. This I have endeavoured to do in my book at the cost of much time and labour, and have thus effected the twofold purpose of condensation and of classification. The advantage of such treatment of references is to be seen especially with such words as God, Lord, Christ, holy and many others. The table showing the portions of Scripture found or referred to in the Prayer Book will prove useful, I am sure, to those who consider the position of certain passages of Scripture in the lectionary, &c., a valuable commentary upon their meaning. The Topical Index was suggested by a clerical friend, and though it takes up but a small portion of the book, was by no means easy to construct. I have endeavoured to make it as complete and reliable as possible. It gives me great pleasure to express my grateful appreciation not only of the subscriptions. which have enabled me to publish this fruit of my labour of love at very small financial loss, but especially of the kind words and thoughtful suggestions which have come to me from so many who believe that my work will help those who love the Prayer Book and desire to know it better. If their expectation is fulfilled, I shall feel amply rewarded for my arduous labours. TABLE OF CONTENTS. (OF THE BOOK OF COMMON PRAYER.) Holy Scripture is appointed to be read. 4.
