brethren and membres whome thou doest visit and chastice with<br />

thy roddes and correction, moste instantly desiring thee to tume<br />

away thine anger from them. Remember, O Lord, we beseche<br />

thee, that they are thy children, as we are : and though they<br />

have <strong>of</strong>fended thy Majestic, yet that it would please thee not<br />

to cease to precede in thine accustomed bountie and mercie,<br />

which thou hast promised shulde evermore continue towardes<br />

thine elect. Vouchsafe, therefore, goode Lord, to extende thy<br />

pitie upon all thy Churches, and towardes all thy people,<br />

whome thou dost now chastise either with pestilence or warre,<br />

or such like thine accustomed roddes, whether it be by sicknes,<br />

prison, or povertie, or any other affliction <strong>of</strong> conscience and minde;<br />

that it wolde please thee to comfort them as thou knowest<br />
