lodened with the hugenesse of the erthely body suffryng in the mean tyme many greuous displeasures and sorowyng that we be withdrawen frō thy company wherof than we shall haue perfite pleasure and fruycion Whan face to face we shall se and beholde our kyng and father raignyng in his great glorie And yet we haue nat this hope truste of our owne merites and desertes whiche we knowe verily as non but onely of thy liberall goodnesse Wherby it lyked the to bestowe thyne owne sonne holly for vs and to sende vs the holy goost as pledge and token of this inheritaunce if it wyll please the also to graunt that we maye stedfastly and without any waueryng contynue in thy sonne Iesus than thou canst nat departe vs from the company of thy realme To whome with that same thy son̄e and the holy goost all renome honour and glorie is due worlde without ende Amen ¶ The thyrde peticion EIat voluntas tua sicut in ceso et in terra O father whiche art the noryssher and ordrer of all whom it pleaseth thy sonne to aknowlege as his bretherne and he so aknowlegeth all those y t in pure faythe professeth his name in baptysme Thy children here in erthe call and crye to y e dwellyng in heuen a place farre out of all chaūgeable mutabilite of thynges created desyryng in dede to come to thy heuenly and celestiall cōpany whiche is defouled with no maner spotte of yuell sauyng they knowe well that non can be taken and receyued in to so great a tranquillite quietnesse but onely they whiche with busye studye whyle they lyue here labour to be such as ther must be Therfore it is all one realme bothe of heuen and erthe sauyng this difference that here we haue sore greuous conflicte w t the flesshe the worlde and the deuyll and there all though there is nothyng that might minysshe or defoyle the welthe of blessed soules Yet as touchynge the full perfection of felicite there is some maner mysse whiche is that all the membres and partes of thy sonne be gathered together and that the hole body of thy sonne safe and sounde be ioyned to his heed Wherby neyther Christe shall lacke any of his partes and mēbres nor good mennes soules theyr bodyes whiche lykewise as they were euer here in erthe parttakers of theyr punīsshementes and afflictiōs so their desyre is to haue them companiōs of their ioye in heuen And they finally in this worlde go about to folowe the vnite and concorde of the heuenly kyngedome whiche all the tyme they lyue bodily in erthe as it becometh naturall and obedient children studye with all diligence to fulfyll those thȳges whiche they knowe shall cōtent thy mynde pleasure and nat what their owne sensuall appetite gyueth them ne iugyng or disputyng why thou woldest this or that to be done but thynkyng it sufficient that thus thou woldest it whom they knowe surely to wyll nothing but that that is best And what thy will is we lerned sufficiently of thy onely begotton moost dere sonne He was obeydient to thy wyll euyn to his owne dethe and thus he sayd for our lernyng and instruction Father if it may conuenyently be suffre this drynke of my passyon to be withdrawen from me howe be it yet thy wyll be fulfylled and nat myne So that thā nedes must man be a shamed to preferre set forth his owne wyll if Christ our maister was cōtent to cast his owne wyll awaye and subdue it to thyne The flesshe hath his propre wyll and delyte whiche man naturally desyreth to kepe and folowe The worlde also hath a wyll by it selfe and the deuyll his wyll farre contrarye to thyne For the flesshe coueteth agaynst the spirite whiche we haue receyued of the and the worlde entyseth vs to sette our loue on frayle and vanysshyng thynges and the deuyll laboureth about that that might bring mā to euerlasting distruction Nor it is nat inough y t in baptyme we haue ꝓfessed y

but if thou gyue vs strengthe to helpe forthe our purpose so that our wyll haue no place in vs but let thy wyll father worke in vs that whiche thy wysdome iudgeth and thynketh best for vs. Who so euer lyueth after the flesshly carnall appetite they are deed to the and than nat as thy childrē Ye and we thy children also as longe as we are here bodily in erthe haue among nat a litell businesse and a

sclaūderously backebite thy most honorable sonne and for enuy and yuell wyll go about to brynge theyr neyghbour in to perill and distruction and so they may shortly waxe ryche care nat whether they do ryght or wrong and are al fulfylled with corrupt and vnclene thoughtes But this is thy wyll father that we shulde kepe both our body and mynde chast and pure from al vnclenesse of the worlde and that we shulde preferre and set more by thyne honour thy sonnes thā all other thynges besyde And that we shulde be angry with no man ne enuye or reuenge any man but alway be redy to do good for yuell ye to be content rather with turmentes hūger imprisonement banysshement and dethe than in any thynge to be contrarye to thy pleasure And that we may be able euery day more and more to perfourme all this helpe vs O father in heuen that y e flesshe may euer more and more be subiect to the spirite and our spirite of one assent and one mynde with thy spirite And likewyse as nowe in dyuerse places thy children whiche are obedient to the gospell obey and do after thy wyll so graūt they may do in all the worlde besyde that euery man may know and vnderstāde that thou alone art the onely heed and ruler of al thyng and that in lyke wyse as there are none in heuen Whiche mutter and rebell agaynst thy wyll so let euery man here in erthe with good mynde and gladde chere obey thy wyll and godly preceptes Nor we can nat effectually and fully mynde what y ● good lorde wyllest excepte it wyll please the to plucke drawe vs therto Thou cōmaundest vs to be obedyent to thy wyll and pleasure and in dede they
