The Liturgy

The Liturgy holds the choices the BCP leaves to the Officiant: how the office begins, the Confession, the Invitatory, the canticles, the Suffrages and more. They stand under the BCP’s own headings, in the order the office meets them: Confession of Sin, The Invitatory and Psalter, The Lessons and The Prayers. Then come Devotions you can say with the office, such as the Angelus.
