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, contains all things necessary to such consecration and ordering; neither has it anything that of itself is superstitious or ungodly. And therefore whoever are consecrated or ordained according to the rites of that book, since the second year of the aforenamed King Edward unto this time, or hereafter shall be consecrated or ordained according to those rites, we decree all such to be rightly, orderly, and lawfully consecrated or ordered.
