not be afraid and though Warre be raised against vs we will trust in this euen that thou wilt deliuer vs and giue our Faith the Victorie But because thou hast said likewise by Salomon that Warre must be enterprised with Counsell Our humble Prayer and Supplication in Christ Iesus is That it would please thee to grant vnto Him who by thy appointment is chosen of our Gracious King to be his Admirall to rule and gouerne this whole Fleet assembled together in Ships prepared as wee hope and trust to fight thy Battailes vpon the Waters or else-where by Land against thine Enemies ours vniustly prouoking vs to fight to Him wee say and to all the rest of the Captaines and Commanders of the Ships of Warre in this whole Fleet now in this present Voyage Wisdome Discretion aud Policie carefully to fore-see and diligently to preuent all the inconueniences that may hinder the Atchieuement of the hoped Victorie To this end O gracious God giue grace to Him and to all such as are called by way of assistance for their experience to ayde and further the Common Cause as well with sound Policie as with strength of Armes for in the multitude of them that can giue Counsell is health giue grace wee say and pray vnto them O Lord if it be thy pleasure to be so fauorable vnto our King and Countrie that with true and perfect Knowledge of Wisdome and Vnderstanding which increaseth strength they may preuent all dangers For thou dost strengthen by Wisedome and sauest by Vnderstanding when and whom it pleaseth thee insomuch as with one man guided by thy Spirit thou preuailest against thousands destituted thereof Giue vnto them all a constant Resolution grounded vpon firme Faith in thee by which they may be emboldned when they encounter the Enemie to say in the Spirit Wee trust in God wee will not feare what Flesh can doe vnto vs. Cause the spirit of our Enemies to faile in the midst of them Destroy their Counsells let them be for the spreading of Nettes in the midst of the Sea wherein they are emboldned through the multitude of men and in the confidence of a fleshly Arme to fight against thy people which call vpon thy Name O Lord for that they haue vndertaken a false quarrell and doe encourage themselues in a wicked purpose Let them be a spoyle vnto vs that all other Princes seeing how valiant thou art in Battailes may cloath themselues with a Robe of Astonishment and say Verily the Lord fighteth for his people the Lord went forth with their Armies and conducted them hee is the Shield and strength of their Deliuerance No Counsell can stand against God no Counsell nor Force of Armes may dare to oppose it selfe and preuaile against them whom he is pleased to protect and defend by his Counsell And the Nations seeing how thou hast executed Vengeance vpon our Enemies with rebukes of thy Indignation may confesse thee to be the only Lord God Mightie in Battailes and Powerfull in all Wisdome and so bee prouoked thereby the more seriously to giue to thee the Glory due to thy Name which is a name of great feare and wonder ouer all the World Furthermore wee beseech thee be pleased in mercy to hearken vnto vs praying in the Name of thy Sonne Christ forasmuch as thou art the Lord which sittest vpon the Flouds to moderate the Tempests of the Winde and weather during their Voyage as that neither our Shippes nor men suffer any annoyance by raging surges of the Waters which otherwise in thy iudgement might ouerwhelme and destroy all For we confesse that our vnworthinesse is great and our sinnes deserue the furie of thine Anger But remember O Lord that thy Name is called vpon of vs and we are thy people to whom thou hast graciously made thy selfe knowne by many mercies and fauours enriching vs both Prince and People with infinite blessings of Peace and Tranquilitie aboue all Nations For which we heartily thanke thee desiring thee for thy Christs sake to increase thy Faith in vs daily more and more and that wee may still growe forward in true loue and thankfulnesse towards thee both Prince and People So shall the King reioyce in his strength whom thou hast made glad with the Ioy of thy Countenance we thy People his Subiects for all thy fauourable kindnesses and for this Sea-Victorie giue thee praise and glory saying the Lord is our Rocke and our Fortresse in him doe we put our trust Grant vs these and all other thy good Blessings which thou knowest to be necessarie for vs and thy whole Church euen for thy deare Sonne our Sauiour Iesus Christs sake Amen A briefe Prayer for priuate Persons in tempestious weather ALmightie and most mercifull God Eternall strong and magnificent at whose voyce the highest Mountaines lowest deepes and all things vnder the Sunne doe tremble and quake preserue vs from thy insupportable anger pardon our sinnes let thy amiable countenance shine vpon vs and alwayes be neere vnto vs Grant that this grieuous and terrible Tempest may passe away without hurting of vs or any of our Brethren Keepe our bodyes our Houses or any thing else that belongs vnto vs from Lightning Fire or any other destruction Holy Father defend vs from all euill sudden and vnprepared death and for thy deare Sonne Christ Iesus sake bring vs to thy eternall habitation of Eternall Blisse where wee may sing perpetually amongst the company of the Angells and Saints in Heauen Halelujah vnto the glory of thy holy Name Amen A briefe Prayer for our afflicted Brethren wheresoeuer MOst gracious God wee beseech thee to looke vpon the aduersitie of our poore Brethren relieue their necessities and rid them out of their miseries that they may the more quietly set their mindes vpon thee if in thy Wisdome thou shalt see it expedient otherwise giue them patience with constant mindes and willing hearts thankfully to beare this thy Fatherly Visitation without grudging or repining against thee humbly submitting themselues vnto thy diuine pleasure with full assurance that in the end thou wilt bring them vnto thy euerlasting rest there to remaine with thee world without end Amen A briefe priuate Prayer for preparation to the publike Fasts whether in Citie or Countrie O Iust and righteous God who as thou art the God of Plentie who fillest with thy blessings euery liuing Creature so thou art the God that commandest Abstinence and Humilitie for sinne and seeing that by thy Iudgements vpon vs at this present thou callest for our humiliation repentance and amendment of life and this Day is thereupon set apart and dedicated to humble our selues before thee by fasting from food good Lord grant that wee may now and euer fast from sinne also and giue vs grace and abilitie to performe this dayes Fast with all humilitie deuotion and such repentant hearts as may through Christ be acceptable in thy sight Amen
