By the advice of Ursinus and Jablonski, the King caused the English Liturgy to be translated into German.  This was done at Frankfort on the Oder, where the English Church had many friends among the professors.  Frederick then directed Ursinus to consult further with the Archbishop of Canterbury, and suggested that, if the plan was encouraged in England, the Liturgy should be introduced into the King’s Chapel and the Cathedral Church on the 1st Sunday in Advent, 1706.  It was to be left optional to other Churches to follow the example.  After debate in the King’s consistory, letters and copies of the version were sent to the Queen of England and to Archbishop Tenison.  The former returned her thanks, but the primate appeared not to have received the communication; and the King, offended at the apparent slackness, allowed the matter to drop.  Early, however, in 1709, communications were reopened.  On January 14 of that year, the following entry occurs in Thoresby’s ‘Diary:’  ’At the excellent Bishop of Ely’s [Moore].  Met the obliging R. Hales, Esq., to whose pious endeavour the good providence of God has given admirable success in reconciling the Reformed Churches abroad [Calvinists and Lutherans] one to another (so that they not only frequently meet together, but some of them join in the Sacrament), and both of them to the Church of England; so that in many places they are willing to admit of Episcopacy, as I am creditably informed.’[336] The negotiations continued.  Jablonski’s recommendations were translated into English, and attracted considerable attention both in England and Prussia.  They were promoted by many persons of eminence, especially by Archbishop Sharp, Bishop Smalridge (who thought ’the honour of our own Church and the edification of others much interested in the scheme’), Bishop Robinson and Lord Raby, ambassador at Berlin.  Secretary St. John, afterwards Lord Bolingbroke, wrote to Raby in behalf of this ‘laudable design,’ informing him that the Queen was ’ready to give all possible encouragement to that excellent work,’ and that if previous overtures had received a cold reception, yet that the clergy generally were zealous in the cause.  Bonel, the Prussian king’s minister in London, wrote in 1711 to Frederick that he thought the service of the Church of England was ’the most perfect, perhaps, that is among Protestants,’ that conformity between the Prussian and English Churches would be received with great joy in England, but that the conformity desired related more to Church government than to any ritual or liturgy, and that Episcopacy was generally looked upon as the only apostolical and true ecclesiastical form of government.  Later in the year, Jablonski placed in the hands of Baron Prinz his more matured ’Project for introducing Episcopacy into the King of Prussia’s dominions.’  Leibnitz engaged to interest the Electress of Hanover in the proposal.  He was afraid, however, that the thirty-nine articles would be considered ’a
