Wasn’t the Sarum/Salisbury Rite done in English? I have never seen it, but I thought it was the Latin Mass in English.

The Sarum (Salisbury) was done in Latin. Much of it ended up in the 1928 BCP in English, but the original was entirely in English. It actually existed BEFORE what we would call English anyway. Old English (Anglo-Saxon) would have been the tongue of the day for the common people (with a good amount of French loan words thrown in there too).
