Présentation de l'éditeur

My REVEREND BRETHREN, THE following Catechism, composed and published some years ago for the use of my parish, is now, at your request, and by your encouragement, reprinted for the benefit of my diocese: and I make no doubt but that, through the blessing of God upon your pious endeavours, it will help to propagate a more perfect knowledge of the doctrine of Christ, in all the parts of it. It was with this sort of instruction that that great and wise minister, the Lord Cromwell, began, as the most likely means to bring on the Reformation, so much desired by all good men.
