CHAPTER VI.
THE BLESSED SACRAMENT.
The Blessed Sacrament!—or, as the Prayer Book calls it, "The Holy Sacrament". This title seems to sum up all the other titles by which the chief service in the Church is known. These are many. For instance:—
The Liturgy, from the Greek Leitourgia,[[1]] a public service.
The Mass, from the Latin Missa, dismissal—the word used in the Latin Liturgy when the people are dismissed,[[2]] and afterwards applied to the service itself from which they are dismissed.
