At St. Martin’s Outwich, London, the sum of 33_s._ 4_d._ was found each half-year as the reward of the priest who said the Morrow Mass. In 1472, one of the parishioners of St. Mary-at-Hill, London, left to the churchwardens of the church certain lands and houses to find a priest to say Mass daily, “immediately after the morowe masse, in the said church of St. Mary, to be sung, yf the morowe masse in the same chirche be continued as heretofore it was wont to be and now is used, or ellse in defaute of the same morowe masse, that my said Prieste syng daily reasonable tymely his masse in stede and tyme of the morrowe masse....” Then, after saying that this chaplain will, of course, assist at all the church services, the donor adds: “also that the said Priest say every werkeday in the said Chirch of Seynt Mary atte hill, his matens, pryme and hours, evensong and complene and all his other prayers and services, by hymself or with his felowes preestes of the same chirch.” In this church also the accounts show that the wardens paid one of the priests an extra fee of 5_s._ a quarter for taking the “Morowe Masse.” At St. Mary Woolnoth, to take but one more example, Symonde Eyre, sometime Mayor of London, and draper, established a fraternity of our Blessed Lady St. Mary the Virgin. There was to be a “Mass by note” and also “two psalms by note,” one in honour of Our Lady, the other in honour of St. Thomas of Canterbury, to be sung by a priest, clerk, and children. To pay for this he gave the tavern called the “Cardinal,” etc. In 1492 the property was found not to be sufficient to support this, and another parishioner, Sir Hugh Bryce, alderman and goldsmith, left to the churchwardens other property to maintain this custom, namely, 6_s._ 8_d._ more to the priest, and 20_s._ “for that the clerk shall daily kepe an anthem or _Salve_ before the Crucifix in the body of the said Church, with _Aves_ of our Lady.” The Masses are to be sung as follows: every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday a Mass of Our Lady; every Wednesday a “Missa de Requiem;” and every Friday a Mass “in honour of the glorious name of Jesus....” [Illustration: ORGAN--TWELFTH CENTURY] It may, then, be taken as certain that, generally speaking, Mass was celebrated daily in most of the parish churches. It is equally certain that this was fairly attended by those whose duties permitted them to be present. The _Prymer_ of 1538, in giving the duties of the week, thus speaks of Monday:-- “Monday men ought me for to call, In which good werkes ought to begin; Heryng masse, the first dede of all, Intendyng to fle deadly syn.” So, too, _The Young Children’s Book_, which is dated about A.D. 1500, takes for granted that those to whom the author addresses his lines will go to their morning Mass.
