Excerpt from Hugh, Bishop of Lincoln: A Short Story of One of the Makers of Medi�val England

St. Hugh's post-reformation history is worth noting for the humour of it. He is allowed in the Primer Calendar by unauthorised Marshall, 1535; out in Crumwell and Hilsey's, 1539; out by the authorised Primer of King and Clergy, 1545; still out in the Prayer-books of 1549 and 1552 in again in the authorised Primer of 1553 out of the Prayer book of 1559 in the Latin one of 1560 still in both the Orarium and the New Calendar of the next year, though out of the Primer 1559; in the Preces Privatae 1564, with a scornful admom'tio to say that the names of saints, as they call them, are left, not because we count them divine, or even reckon some of them good, or, even if they were greatly good, pay them divine honour and worship; but because they are the mark and index of certain matters dependent upon fixed times, to be ignorant of which is most inconvenient to our people -to wit, fairs and so on. Since which time St. Hugh has not been cast out of the Calendar, but is in for ever.
