Edinburgh: Printed by James Watson, 1712. [30], 308, [2], 309-429pp, [1]. Title page in red and black. Leaf B1 is a cancellans with 'nople asure' in line eight of text corrected to 'no pleasure'. Some copies have both states of B1, the present copy does not. Handsomely bound in later richly gilt-tooled dark green morocco, A.E.G. Lightly rubbed. Elaborate brocade endpapers, armorial bookplate of Thomas Maitland Dundrennan to FEP, internally clean and crisp. An attractively bound eighteenth-century Edinburgh-printed edition of the controversial âLaudâs Prayer bookâ, an avowedly English-influenced version of the liturgy, issued by Robert Young, printer to Charles I, in 1637. Drafted by the Bishops of Ross and Dunblane, John Maxwell (d. 1639) and James Wedderburn (1585-1639), the Scottish Book of Common prayer was largely based upon the rite first issued in 1549 during the reign of King Edward VI. Introduced to an unaccepting Scottish population on 23rd July 1637 by Archbishop Laud at the behest of King Charles I, it attempted to replace John Knox's Calvinist Book of Common Order and proved the greatest symbol of the unpopular standardisation of Anglican Protestantism throughout the British Isles. The text was one of several triggers of the Covenant movement and the first stages of the War of Three Kingdoms.Despite its unpopularity, this historic text influenced the 1662 revision of the English Liturgy, the 1789 American Book of Common Prayer and the Scottish Episcopalian Liturgy of 1929. Thomas Maitland, Lord Dundrennan (1792-1851), judge and sometime Solicitor General for Scotland. A devotee of antiquarian literature, Dundrennan amassed an extensive library - 'a monument' according to Lord Cockburn, 'honourable to his taste and judgment'. The contents on which was dispersed by sale over nine days in November 1851. ESTC T138343.. 8vo.
