alwaies appeare in me Lord grant me these and all other good graces euen for Iesus Christs sake my onely Lord and Sauiour in whose name I humbly begge them at thy hands saying as he hath taught me Our Father c. ¶ A Prayer for the Morning O Lord thou high and mightie whose Glorie and Maiesty may not be comprehended whose woord is true whose commandement is strong thou that ridest vppon the Cherubins and flyest with the winges of the wind Thou God of all mercie most woorthy to be sought before whome the Hoastes of Heauen stand with trembling whose Ordinance is dreadfull whose Lookes drieth vp the depthes whose hands ruleth the starrie Firmaments whose goodnesse onely giueth the fruits of the Earth whose wrath maketh the Mountaines to melte and consumeth the wicked whose truth beareth witnesse and mercie saueth the sorrowfull Sinner Thou thou incomprehensible Creator that neuer tookest beginning and wantest end Sith of nothing thou hast wrought me with the wonders of the world to thy most séemly shape and vouchsafest thy drery Death and passion to drowne the danger of my sinnefull deserts and hast as a carefull Captaine cherished my bodie with comfortable giftes vnto this present day Continue oh God such goodnesse towards me vnworthy which doe here with a contrite heart and bowed Knées appeale to the height of thy mercie and louing kindnesse to accept my vnequall thankes for the same humbly beséeching thy Fatherly goodnesse that thy holy hand may still renew in me thy former gifts plenteouslie powred vpon me from the prime of my birth vnto this present not remembring good Lord my vnworthines of the same nor frailty of my passed yeares that speaketh against me but altering the ministers of thy wrath into milde mercie Graunt I beséech thée that through the assistance of thy holy Spirit I may be led to correct what is amisse and that I may now this day and euer hereafter perseuer in setting ordering and performing all my trauailes councels and studies as best may accord with thy blessed will and cancell the handes of my heauye charge Assist me oh Lord of all power with thy prudent skill and heauenlie grace that I may bee truelie able to aduance Iustice and to hate wrong and so be found faithfull in all that I take in hand Plant I beséech thée by thy heauenlie grace and feare with obedience in mee and kindle in me the loue of thy holy spirit that I may perseuer in the truth of thy word without doubt or wauering to the end Graunt this oh mightie God of Hoastes for the Merites and Passion of thy deare Sonne my Lord and Sauiour Iesus Christ Amen ¶ A Prayer for the Euening O Most mercifull GOD and louing Father with feare and reuerence I approach to thy throne this night that stealeth on me like a thiefe I thanke thée for preseruing me this day past and I beséech thée suffer me not to fall into the horrours of the night Forgiue me the innumerable offences that I haue cōmitted this day those also which if thy Grace preuent me not I am like to fall into this night Pardon them oh Lord they are more in number then the sand in the Sea and more heauie to me then if Mountaines were layd vpon my breast But I beséech thée receaue me to mercie and giue me grace to be more carefull of the performance of thy holie will Suffer no vncleane thoughts to pollute my bodie and soule and whether I sléepe or wake giue thine Angels charge ouer me that at what houre soeuer thou callest me I may like a faithfull souldier be found ready to attend thée my Lord and God euen for Iesus Christs sake my onely Lord and Sauiour Amen ¶ In the multitude of thy mercies will I enter into thy house oh GOD and in thy feare lift vp my handes and heart towardes thy sacred seate and honour thy Holy name ¶ The Confession of a Sinner O Most blessed Father of euerlasting blisse and gracious giuer of all goodnes I say most precious Patron of all Princely power and God of all mercie I wretched sinner and vncleane Creature with so much humilitie as possible in me is and with full trust in thy goodnesse doe prostrate my selfe before thy Sacred seate confessing my grieuous huge and déepe offences wherewith I haue offended thee my most louing Father euen vntil this houre I haue not feared to commit those execrable wicked déeds which thy onely beloued Son my humble Lord and Sauiour by his bitter bloud-shedding hath washed and with so pinching panges purged I confesse also vnto thée most mercifull father my great and horrible ingratitude wherewith I vnwoorthy creature haue euer most vnthankefullie answered thée and thy Sonne in liew of all the loue goodnesse and fidelitie which thou hast bestowed on mee which now so long and many years hast spared my wickednesse and sinne and benignely suffred all iniurie and contempt offered thée through my disobedience and wilfulnesse Yea thou hast required mee to repentance with great gentlenesse that thereby thou mightest winne my heart to decke thy Habitation therin with the Boughs of thy Loue. And how often oh Lord GOD haste thou knocked at the Doore of my Conscience by thy inspiration wooed mee with thy benefites cheared mee with thy comforts and most mightilie put to flight my dreadfull daungers yet hast thou suffered repulse I haue alwaies turned ny backe to thée and thou notwithstanding haste méekely suffred it Oh how iustlie couldest thou haue throwen me to Hell yet mercifullie hast spared me Truelie it is maruaile most sweet Sauiour that my heart breaketh not through vehement sorrow when I recount these things Neither is Hell it selfe with all his paines of force to correct my malicious wickednesse I am vnworthy to bee called thy creature or one whome the Earth should sustaine or nourishmentes yéeld their naturall food Meruaile it is oh Lord that thy Creatures and Elements do not reuenge the iniurie and contempt which I haue made thée through my manifold iniquities But now most louing Father haue mercie I beséech thée on me and to me miserable and desolate sinner Turne the eyes of thy diuine fauour and with the winges of thy mercie couer my infirmitie Open vnto mee the Bowels of thy benignitie and receiuing me into thy fauour forgiue my slackenesse in turning to thée Open to me thy bosome of bountie and louing kindnesse and replenish me with the nourishment and solace of thy grace I beséech thée Lord God sith of thy mercie and for thy Sonnes
