THE OLD CHURCHES OF WIRRAL cast holy water on the church walls. And the bishop shall come unto the church door, and strike the threshold with his crozier staff, and shall say, Tollite portas (Psalm XXIV. 7). Then shall the deacon that is within say, Quis est iste Rex gloriae ? To whom the bishop shall answer, Domintis fortis, dominus fortis in praelio.

Occasionally the compound form is due to the union of two parishes. Possibly that at Neston was originally to St. Helen alone, and St. Mary was added in order to obtain further and more potent intercession.
