Excerpt from The Order of Public Worship and Administration of the Sacraments as Used in the Church of the Greyfriars, Edinburgh In the following Morning and Evening Services the three acts of worship are arranged uniformly according to what appears the natural order - the Word, Prayer, and Praise; and the Service consists of these acts thrice repeated in the same order. The Sermon, with Prayer and Praise, constitutes a fourth repetition. If it be desired to shorten the Service, the Sermon comes in before the third Prayer, and then both lessons are read before the second Prayer. It is, however, the practice in the Greyfriars' Church to substitute in one of the Sunday Services a short exposition of each of the lessons instead of a Sermon.
