in ecclesiastical phraseology, is (1) Ancient rites, according to the use of the Churca of Bangor; (2.) A form for celebrating holy communion, substantially agreeing with the ancient Sarum Missal, but yet having several liturgical peculiarities of its own, commonly used in the diocese of Bangor and some parts of Wales prior to the Reformation. MS. office-books containing this rite appear to have been all destroyed; only fragments of the same, and those imperfect, exist. None were printed. A rare vellum copy, small folio, of a Bangor pontifical is preserved in the cathedral library there.
