Excerpt from Coronation Rites

May I also here point out that since the Rite was probably never used twice in identically the same form in any country, and since it was thus in a continually ﬂuid state, the 'recensions' into which the rites of the different countries are here and generally divided, are to a certain extent arbitrary, and must be taken as marking periods at which the rites reached certain stages of develope ment?
