Check out The Anglican Breviary, which is almost identical to the pre-Vatican II Roman Catholic Breviary, but with the slightly different, elegant translation into Elizabethan English and Scripture readings from the King James Bible, and some Propers from the Book of Common Prayer. In large part, The Anglican Breviary substantially preserves the traditional Catholic breviary with its beloved old prayers and readings. The Q & A pages states that "certain priests of the Roman Catholic Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter have recommended the Anglican Breviary to their laity as an acceptable form of the Divine Office." Also read the review of The Anglican Breviary written for Touchstone magazine by Fr. Addison H. Hart, a Roman Catholic priest: "'Prayer Rhythms' Redivivus" (Touchstone, June, 2002)[Hat tip to A.S.]
