Book Description

Excerpt from The Private Devotions of Dr. William Laud, Archbishop of Canterbury and Martyr The following Book is an exact reprint of an edition now become very scarce, published at Oxford in 1667, with the Imprimatur of Archbishop Sheldon, and Vice-Chancellor Fell, from the original Ms. in the archives of St. John's College. Nothing has been done in the present edition but the correction of the references, and the addition from the Archbishop's Diary, and other sources, of such Notes as the peculiarly biographical character of the Prayers seemed to demand.
