Let us not lacke the thing, O Father, without the which we can
not serve thee : but blesse ; thou so all the workes of our handes
that we may have sufficient, and not to be chargeable, but rather
helpful! unto others : be mercifull, O Lord, to our offences. And
seing our dette is great, which thou hast forgiven us in Jesus Christ,
make us to love thee, and our neighbours so muche the more. Be
thou our Father, our Captaine and Defender in all tentations ;
holde thou us by thy mercyfull hand, that we may be delivered
from all inconveniences, and end our lives in the sanctifying and
honour of thine holie Name, through Jesus Christ our Lord and
onely Saviour, .^o be it.
