Excerpt from Fifty Years at East Brent: The Letters of George Anthony Denison, 1845-1896, Archdeacon of Taunton High Churchmen were few in number, when the bulk of English people gloried in calling themselves Protestants, and the word Catholic was synonymous with Rome, Archdeacon Denison yet never became a thorough-going Ritualist. He valued Ritual in so far as it was the expres sion of Doctrine and enjoined by the Rubrics of the Prayer Book, but he never attached so much importance to it as did many of his friends, and often feared lest the thing signified should be lost sight of in the outward sign.
