to haue pitty on my soule and to vse mercye thereto when it shall depart out of this life and that thou wouldest by the merits of thy most precious bloud take it with thee into aeternall life Amen ADVERTISEMENT Caesarius a religious man doth report that a great seruant of god being accoustomed to say the forsayd prayer as often as he passed by the holy Crucifix did merit after his death to goe out of this vvorld directly into paradise vvithout suffring the paynes of purgatory AN ACT OF CONTRITION WITH ALL THE PARTS THEREOF IN FORME OF A PRAYER MY lord Iesus Christ true god true mā for

sanctissimam intercessionem per tua gloriosa merita omnia mea dirigantur disponantur opera secundum tuam tuique filij voluntatem Amen AN OTHER PRAYER TO IMPLORE THE AYDE OF OVR BLESSED LADY IN TIME OF TRIBVLATION AND IN HORROR OF DEATH O Most chast and mercifull virgin and mother holy Mary stretch forth I beseech thee the hand of thy help and succor to me a miserable and wretched sinner in all those trauayles and necessityes which may happen vnto me at any time or place but principally in this tribulation and affliction which doth oppresse me at this present soe that I may not onely beare it patiently and for the loue of god but alsoe with courage and cheerefully and that by his grace and speciall assistance I may gayne force and constancy in all my other crosses and aduersityes which may fall vpon me aswell from the hand of my god as of mē O mother of mercy and aduocate of sinners be pleased alsoe to be my gratious defendresse at that time when my soule shall part from my body for at that time more thē any other shall I haue neede of thy succor and ayde For alas if I consider the weight of my sinnes and the number of offēces which I haue committed and doe daily committ in the presence of the diuine goodnes I feare to be confounded ouercome by the deuill whoe will neuer cease to present thē before my eyes indeuoring to deceiue me by his false illusions I therfore most hūbly beseech thee the true distributor of gods holy graces that thou wouldest obtayne of my lord thy deare and onely sonne true god and true man that as he hath vouchsafed to come and take humayne flesh in thy chast wōbe not by any humayne but Diuine power that so he might saue mankind from eternall damnation soe likewise it would please him to giue me the force and vnderstanding at that last houre truely to repēt myself of my sinnes and to haue nothing in my thoughts but him alone Which I aske by thy intercession not for my self alone but alsoe for all those whoe are of this holy societye whereof thou art the principall ladye mistresse soe that by thy merits intercessiō wee may all soe well serue thy most sweete sonne in our life that acknowledging him at our death by recieuing al the

infinite pittye that in the last passage of my life whē I shall appeare trembling defore the awefull tribunall of thy deare beloued sonne my sauiour Iesus Christ to giue a strict accompt of my whole life that thou wouldest vouchsafe to assist and prorect me to the end that by thy fauorable intercession most gracious mother I may escape that terrible sentence of eternall death be found or made worthy to enioy with thee that life which neuer shall haue end Amen PROTESTATIONS FOR THOSE WHOE ARE SICK AND DESIRE TO DYE IN THE GRACE OF GOD. I. N. miferable sinner doe protest heere in the presence of the holy Trinity the Father Sōne and Holy ghost of Iesus Christ crucified for my sinnes of the

he kisse the sacred wounds of the holy Crucifix sayeing each time Iesu the sonne of Dauid haue mercy vpon me 2. The sick person shall cause a Crucifix or some other deuout image of our Lord Iesus Christ or our blessed Lady to be hung vp in some place where he may easily behold hold and contemplate it many times as well by nyght as by day and pray sometimes to Iesus Christ sometimes to our blessed ladye and recommēding himself cordially vnto them to speake these words or such like O Iesus my sauuiour saue my soule O mercifull virgin Marye defend my soule O Iesus and Marye grant patience and strength to my soule O Iesus and Marie recieue my soule neere vnto yee He shall likewise recōmend himself to the blessed patriarchs S. Ioseph Saint Francis Saint Augustin and Saynt Barbara speciall protectors and intercessors for the holy Association of twelue and to other his particular friends and deuout persons and aboue all to his good Angell guardien 3. Theye whoe haue charge of the sick partyes shall be carefull that theire children or such like persons doe not come neere them or but very seldome by reason of the particular and naturall affection that they beare to them because the presence of such persons doth vsually trouble sicke people for the tēdernesse of affection which is stirred vp in them which is very hurtfull as well to the body as to the soule 4. All lasciuious paintings profane pictures are to be remoued from the chamber of the sick body or at least to be kept out of his sight because they might without doubt cause in him by the craft of the deuill euill thoughts and effects 5. Those whoe shall visit the sick must be carefull that they doe not entertayne them with vayne discourse or vnproffitable and worldly buisinesses but shall speake vnto thē such things as may spiritually recreate them and edify the assistants in our Lord. 6. The sick partye shall be diligent to discouer vnto his spirituall father all the temptations doubts scruples and sinnes orderly as they come to his memorye to the end that conseruing by this meane the peace and tranquillity of his conscience the deuill be not able to deceiue him in any thing ● Besides the sick or ●hose whoe attend about ●im must indeuor to gett ●eligious men to come ●ften vnto him particu●arly his confessor or spi●ituall father that he may ●e ayded by them com●orted solaced especi●lly towards the end of ●is life For it is certayne ●that the presence onely of ●ood religious men espeially if they be priests ●oth bring cause great ●are and terror to the infernall deuills which neuer forsake the sick person till he be dead 8. To conclude I will say● one thing very profitable for sick persons who desire to make a good and quiet end and which perchance is not much practised by worldly men which is not to put of the sayeing of masses for th● after theire death or t● giue almes for the goo● of theire soules but they ought to doe it whill they liue for as much as such like good workes are then without comparison farre more profitable to the soule then after theire death First for that they obtayne of god diuersity of proffit and spirituall helpes with or by which the soule is excited to doe supernaturall workes and which deserue eternall saluation as acts of forrowe and contrition for sinne of the loue of god hope and such like by which a habit of diuine grace doth increase in the soule and consequently the glory which is due thereto in paradise 2. Because the soule doth receiue of these spirituall helps great force and is meruailously strengthned and incouraged in time of death agaynst the assaults of his ennemy In a word these meanes are of great force and vale we to obtayne of god a true and harty repentance at the houre of death and a most perfect conuersiō to him wherein a happye end doth consist and in his grace and consequently our eternall saluation in the life to come whereunto may it please our redeemer to conduct vs all by the merits of his most holy passion THE COMPLAINT OF A SOVLE APPREHENDING THE AETERNITYE OF HELL FOr EVER neuer ending my good god S'an infinite that knovvs no period Restlesse hovvlinge burninge dyinge EVER So endlesse each a part and all togeather If after many thousand yeares vvere past These ills should end there vvould be hope at last But this for EVER termelesse all consumes And old past Age its infancy resumes The fullest mirth hard EVER doth controule And sad and silent strikes th' afflicted soule By Attoms could a vvrenne ouer the mayne Transfer the headlesse Alpes vvith easlesse payne And euery thousand yeares but once could fly Or vvhen an Ant had suckt the Ocean dry Should be the terme this tardy hope might please The Damned soules that once there vvould be ease But Horred EVER tyme and all or'e past Exists alone vvith him that ● first and last FINIS OFFICIVM PARVVM in honorem S.
