(3 61) Now for the Minor, that affintrd Liturgy is not forbidder, we need no other proof then that no Prohibition can be produced. If it bé prohibited, it is either by Tomefpecial Trohibition,or by theGeneral prohibition of not adding:But it is by neither ofthefe, therefore not at all. Speciali prohibition i never yet law any pro- duced. God hath nowhere fo bidden a formof Prayer. And the General prohibition of not adding, extends not to ir. For z.
