The Book of Consecration of Archbishops and Bishops, and Ordering
of Priests and Deacons, lately set forth in the time of Edward the
Sixth, and confirmed at the same time by authority of Parliament,
doth contain all things necessary to such Consecration and Ordering:
neither hath it any thing, that of itself is superstitious and
ungodly. And therefore whosoever are consecrated or ordered
according to the Rites of that Book, since the second year of
the forenamed King Edward unto this time, or hereafter shall be
consecrated or ordered according to the same Rites, we decree all
such to be rightly, orderly, and lawfully consecrated and ordered.
