"Everyone sees and hears Mass every day; they say numbers of Paternosters in public; the women carry long rosaries in their hands; those who can read take the Office of Our Lady with them and say it in church with a companion, verse by verse, in a low voice, just as monks do; yet they always hear Mass on Sunday in their parish church....neither do they neglect any practice that betokens a good Christian"
Guess the century this author is describing religious life in England, and don't pick anything recent!
