This effort included the [[The Books of Homilies|''First Book of Homilies'']] published in 1547 and the [[1549 Book of Common Prayer|1549 ''Book of Common Prayer'']] (followed by its [[Book of Common Prayer (1552)|1552 revision]]).{{Sfn|Davie|2013|p=22}} However, shortly after their proclamation in 1553, the Catholic [[Mary I of England|Queen Mary]] ascended to the throne and promulgation of the articles ceased.{{Sfn|MacCulloch|1996|p=621}}
