Excerpt from A Selection From the Writings of the Reformers and Early Protestant Divines of the Church of England, Vol. 8: Nowell's Catechism; Archbishop Parker's Prefaces to the Bible; Various Tracts Annexed to the Geneva Bible, Liturgy, &C One considerable thing more passed the hands of this con vocation, of which mention was made before, viz. The Catechism in Latin for the use of schools, and also for a brief summary of religion to be owned and professed in this reformed church. And this is the same with that which is commonly known to this day by the name of Nowell's Catechism. The occasion was this: upon Secretary Cecil's advice, Nowell, Dean of St. Paul's, drew up a Catechism in elegant Latin, yet making much use of the Catechism set forth towards the latter end of King Edward's reign. This, when the Dean had finished, be dedicated to the said Se cretary who set him on work. And the clergy of the convocation thought fit to peruse it, and having well considered it, and making some corrections, gave it a more public character, as proceeding from them, and wallowing and approving the use of it. In the 22d session of this convocation, the Prolocutor, with Sampson and Day attending him, presented it to the upper house, as unanimously consented to by those of the lower. This taking up time, it was somewhat longer before the Dean could send it again to the said Secretary's hands.
