And there shall be no celebration of the Lord's Supper, except there be a convenient number to communicate with the Priejt, according to his discretion. And if there be not above twenty Persons in the Parish of discretion to receive the Communion, yet there shall be no Communion, except four (or three at the least) communicate with the Priest. And in Cathedral and Collegiate Churches and Colleges, where there are many Priests and Deacons, they Mall all receive the crime munion with the Priest every Sunday at the least, except they have a reasonable cause to the contrary.

The Bread and Wine for the Communion shall be provided by the Curate and the Churchwardens, at the charges of the Parish. And note, that every Parishioner shall communicate at the least three times in the year, of which Eater to be one.

THE MINISTRATION OF TO BE USED IN THE CHURCH. Baptifm should not be administered but upon Sundays, and other Holy-Days, when the most number of people come together; as well for that the Congregation there present may testify the receiving of them that be newly baptized into the number of Christ's Church; as also becaufi, in the Baptism of Infants, every main prefint may be put in remembrance of his own profesion made in God in his Baptism. For which cause also it is expedient that Baptism be ministered in the vulgar tongue. Nevertheless, (if necellity so require) Children may be baptized upon any other Day. And noie, That there shall be for every Male Child to be baptized, two Godfathers and one Godmother; and for every Female, one Godfather and two Godmothers. When there are Children to be baptized, the Parents shall give knowledge thereof over night, or in the morning before the begin. ning of Morning Prayer, to the Curate. Ana then the Godfather's and Godmothers, and the People with the Children, must be ready at the Fort, either immediately after the last Lejon at Morning Prayer, or else immediately after the luft Leilon at Evening Prayer, as the Curate by his discretion shall appoint.
