Maintaining Explanation: and Restoring & Modifying is probably what I'd put if I understand you rightly so as "headers" if that's what you need, they're acting as nouns but the sentences can also follow on from them as verbs. Your option also works I think But neither looks like "normal" English so perhaps it might be best just to write a normal sentence in the Passive? "The ancient, unchanged tradition is maintained that the presider is the bishop" |

Maintained, Restored, Modified Explanation: personally I would not rewrite the sentances as this would go against the author's wish to highlight (using the words as headers) which practices were either maintained, modified or restored. I'd use these passive forms as headers and then modify the following sentance slightly for example: "Maintained (in italics). The ancient and unchanged tradition that the presider is the bishop.\" \"Restored. The rite to also include virgins living in the world\" \"Modified. The tenor of the encounter...\" and so on |
