lasted into the eighteenth century. See, for example, Nicholas Tyacke, ed., England’s Long Reformation: 1500–1800 (London: UCL Press, 1998).
3. For a sympathetic description of late medieval Catholicism in England, see Eamon Duffy, The Stripping of the Altars (1992). In contrast to such earlier authors as A. G. Dickens (The English Reformation, 1964) who suggested that much about late medieval Catholicism was superstitious and non-Biblical, Duffy has argued that “late medieval Catholicism exerted an enormously strong, diverse, and vigorous hold over the loyalty of the people up to the very moment of the Reformation,” and “traditional religion had about it no particular marks of exhaustion or decay.” See Duffy, The Stripping of the Altars (New Haven: Yale, 1992), 4; and A. G. Dickens, The English Reformation, 2d edition (University Park: The Pennsylvania State University Press, 1989), 25–45.

6. The comfortable words first appeared in the English liturgy in the Order of Communion of 1548 and were included in editions of the Book of Common Prayer from 1549 on. The Episcopal Church retained the comfortable words in the rite I Holy Eucharist of 1979, but altered the introduction that had given words their name—“Hear what comfortable words our Saviour Christ saith unto all who truly turn to him.” See Book of Common Prayer (1928), 76; and the Book of Common Prayer (1979), 332.
7. At the time of the coronation of Edward VI in 1547, the English used the term Protestant to apply to German Lutherans and Reformed Christians. By the end of the following century, however, the word Protestant was in general use in England as a generic term for non-Roman Catholic, non-Anabaptist western Christians. The Act of Settlement of 1700, for example, specified that the English monarch should be “in the Protestant Line for the Happiness of the Nation and the Security of our Religion.” Since the nineteenth century, however, many Episcopalians have avoided use of the adjective Protestant to describe their church, suggesting instead that Anglicanism occupies a middle ground between Roman Catholicism and Protestantism. While Protestant still remains part of the official corporate title of the Episcopal Church (the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America), the General Convention of the Episcopal Church authorized the use of the shorter title (the Episcopal Church) in 1967 and 1976.
