== Ceremonial? == 

 I'm not happy with the sentence about King Charles and Archbishop Laud trying to move the C. of E. in a more ceremonial direction. I think what they were trying to insist on was a bare minimum of order in the way the services of the church were conducted. This included things like clergy wearing a distinctive form of dress while conducting services, reading the services from the Prayer Book, instead of using extempore forms, and not using the communion table for secular purposes. The present wording suggests that they were trying to impose the anglo-Catholicism of later centuries on the C. of E.
