4. They retain Pictures in their Churches. The Lutherans at Frank ford have built a new Church, called S. Catherines, in which there is as much Painting, as ever I saw in any Popish Church; and over the High Altar is a huge carved Crucifix, as there are Painted ones in other places of their Church, Dr. Burnet's Letters.
5. At Strasburg they bow when they name the Holy Ghost, as well as the Name of Jesus, Idem.
6. I was in their Church, saith the Reverend Author, where, if the Musick of their Psalms pleas∣ed me much, the Irreverence in singing (it being free to keep on, or put off, the hat) did appear very strange to me, Idem, ibid.
7. They have not (as Strasburg) the same Cere∣monies, that the Lutherans of Saxony have, which Mr. Bebel, their Professor of Divinity, said, was a great Happiness; for a similitude in outward rites might dispose the ignorant People to change too easily, ibid.
8. The Lutherans, for the greatest part, retain their Animosities almost to an equal degree, both against Papists and Calvinists, ibid.
9. The Lutheran Churches are handsome, and their Pulpits exeraordinary Noble, and richly set off, as I observed through all Saxony, Noremberg, and where they are Masters of the places, &c. Dr. Brown's Travels.
In the Palatinate, the Order of their Service is thus, as I received it from the hand of one Herman Graff••ing of Keysart Lautern, a Native of the Pa∣latinate.
On Sundays, Morning-Service.
1. On a Sledge in the Porch is notified what Psalms are to be sung.
2. When they are come into Church, the Clerk begins to sing, the people all joyning with him pre∣sently, every one having his book, and the Scho∣lars generally being taught at School to sing by Notes, the melody is pleasant.
