to be compared This our excessiue multitude of Ceremonies was so great and many of them so darke that they did more confound and darken then declare and set forth Christs benefits vnto vs And besides this Christs Gospel is not a ceremoniall law as much of Moses law was but it is a religion to serue Gob not in bondage of the figure or shadow but in the freedome of the spirite being content onely with those ceremonies which doe serue to a decent order and godly disctpline and such as bee apt to stirre vp the dull minde of man to the remcmbrauce of his duety to God by some notable special signification whereby he nught be edified Furthermore the most waightr cause of the abolishment of certaine ceremonies was that they were so farre abused partly by the superstitious blindnesse of the rude and vnlearned and partly by the vnsatiable auarice of such as sought more their owne lucre then the glory of God that the abuses could not well be taken away the thing remaining still But now as concerning those persons which peraduenture wil be offended for that some of the old Ceremonies are retained stil if they consider that without some Ceremonies it is not possible to keepe any order or quiet disipline in the church they shal easily perceiue iust cause to reforme their iudgments And if they thinke much that nay of the old do remaine and would rather haue all deuised anew Then such men granting some Ceremonies convenient to be had surely where the old may be wel vsed there they cannot reasonably reprooue the olde oncly for their age without bewraying of their owne folly For in such a case they ought rather to haue reuerence vnto them for their antiquitie if they willdeclare themseluse to be more studious of vnitie and concord then of innouations and newfanglenesse which as much as m may be with true setting forth of Christs religion is alwayes to bee eschewed Furthermore such shall haue no tust cause with the Ceremonies reserved be offended For as those be taken away which were most abused and did burden mens conscrences wiyhout any cause so the other that remain are retained for a discipline and order which vponiust causes may bee altered and changed and therefore are not to bee esteemed equal with Gods Law And moreouer they be neither darke nor dumbe ceremonies but are set forth that euery man may vnderstand what they doe meane and to what vse they doe serue So that it is not like that they in time to come should be abused as other haue been And in these our doing we condemne no other nations nor prescribe any thing but to our owne people onely For we thinke it conuenient thateuery countrey should vse such Ceremonies as they shall thinke belt to the fetting forth of Gods honour and glory and to the reducing of the people to a most perfect and godly liuing without errour or suoerstition And that they should put a way other things which from time to time they perceiue to be most abused as in mens ordinances it often chanceth diuersly in diuers countreys ❧ The Table and Kalender expressing the order of the Psalmes and Lessons to be said at Morning and Euening prayer throughout the yeere except certaine proper Feasts as the rules following more plainely declare ¶ The order how the Psalter is appointed to he read THe Psalter shal be read through once euery Moneth And because that some Monechs belonger then some other be it is thought good to make them euen by this meanes To euery Moneth shal be appointed as concerning this purpose iust xxx dayes And because Ianuary and Marchhaue one day aboue the said number February which is placed betweene them both hath onely xxviij dayes February shal borow of either of the Moneths of Ianuary and March one day And so the Plalter which shal be read in February must begin at the last day of Ianuary and end the first day of March. And whereas May Iuly August October and December haue xxxj dayes a piece It is ordered that the same Psalmes shal be read the last day of the said Moneths which were read the day before so that the Psalter may begin againe the first day of the next Moneth ensuing Now to know what Psalmes shall be read euery day Looke in the kalender the number that is appointed for the Psalmes and then find the same number in this Table and vpon that number you shall see what Psalmes shal be said at Morning and Euening prayer And where the Cxix Psalme is diuided into 22. portions is ouerlong to be read at one time it is so ordered that at one time shal not be read aboue foure or fiue of the said portions as you shall perceiue to be noted in this Table folowing And here is also to bee noted that in this Table and in all other parts of the Seruice where any Psalmes are appointed the number is expressed after the great English Bible which from the ix Psalme vnto the Cxlviij Psalme following the diuision of the Hebrewes doeth varie in numbers from the common Latine translation The Order how the rest of the holy Scripture beside the Psalter is appointed to be read THe old Testament is appointed for the first Lessons at Morning and Euening prayer and shall bee read through euery yeere once except certaine Bookes and Chapters which be least edisying and might best bee spared and therefore are lest vnread The Newe Testament is appointed for the second Lessons at Morning and Euening prayer and shall be read ouer orderly euery yeere thrise beside the Epistles and Gospels except the Apocalypse out of the which there be only certaine Lessons appointed vpon diuers proper feasts And to know what Lessons shall be read euery day find the day of the moneth in the Kalender following and there ye shall perceiue the Bookes and Chapters that shal be read for the Lessons both at Morning and Euening prayer And here is to be noted that when soener there be any proper Psalmes or Lessons appointed for the Sundayes or for any Feast moueable or vnmoueable then the Psalmes and Lessons appointed in the Kalender shall be omitted for that time Ye must note also that the Collect Epistle and Gospel appointed for the Sunday shall serue all the weeke after except there sall some Feast that hath his proper When the yeeres of our Lord may be diuided into foure euen partes which is euery fourth yeere then the Sunday letter leapeth and that yere the Psalmes and Lessons which serue for the xxiij day of February shall be read againe the day following except it be Sunday which hath proper Lessons of the Old Testament appointed in the Table seruing to that purpose Also wheresoeuer the beginning of any Lesson Epistle or Gospel is not expressed there ye must begin at the beginning of the Chapter And wheresoeuer is not expressed how farre shall be read there shall you reade to the end of

Amen ALmightie GOD the fountaine of all wisedome which knowest our neccssities before we aske and our ignorance in asking wee beseech thee to haue compassion vpon out infirmities and those things which for our vnworthinesse we dare not and for our blindnesse we cannot aske vouchsafe to giue vs for the worthines of thy sonne Iesus Christ our Lord Amen ALmightie god which hast promised to heare the petitions of them that aske in thy sonnes name we beseech thee mercifully to encline thine eares to vs that haue made now our prayers and supplications vnto thee and graunt that those things which wee haue faithfully asked according to thy will may effectually be obtained to the reliefe of our necessitie and to the setting forth of thy glorie though Iesus Christ our Lord Amen ¶ Vpon the holy dayes if there be no Communion shall be said all that is appointed at the Communion vntill the ende of the Homilie concluding with the generall prayer for the whole estate of Chrifstes Church militant here in earth and one or moe of these Collects before rehearsed as occasion shall serue And there shall bee no celebration of the Lords Supper except there be a good number to communicate with the Priest according to his discretion And if there be not aboue twentie persons in the Parish of discretion to receiue the Communion yet there shall be no Communion except foure or three at the least communicate with the Priest And in Cathedrall and Collegiate Churches where be many Priests and Deacons they shall all receiue the Communion with the Minister euery Sunday at the least except they haue a reasonable cause to the contrarie And to take away the superstition which any person hath or might haue in the bread and wine it shall suffice that the bread be such as is vsually to bee eaten at the table with other meates but the best and purest wheate bread that conueniently may bee gotten And if any of the bread and wine remaine the Curate shall haue it to his owne vse The bread and wine for the Communion shall be prouided by the Curate and the Churchwardens at the charges of the Parish and the Parish shall be discharged of such summes of money or other dueties which hitherto they haue paide for the same by order of their houses euery Sunday And note that euery Parishioner shal communicate at the least three times in the yeere of which Easter to bee one and shall also receiue the Sacraments and other Rites according to the order in this booke appointed And yeerely at Easter euery Parishioner shall reckon with his Parson Vicar or Curate or his or their deputie or deputies and pay to them or him all Ecclesiasticall dueties accustomably due then and at that time to be payed The ministration of Baptisme to be vsed in the Church It appeareth by ancient writers that the Sacrament of Baptisme in the old time was not commonly ministred but at two times in the yeere At Caster and whitfuntide At which times it was openly ministred in the presence of all the Congregation Which custome now being growen out of vse although it cannot for many considerations bee well restored againe it is thought good to follow the same as neere as conueniently may be Wherefore the people are to be admonished that it is most conuenient that Baptisme should not be ministred but vpon Sundays and other holydayes when thr most number of people may come together as well for that the congregation thet present may testifie the recieuing of them that be newly baptized into the number of Christ Church as also becouse in the Baptisme of insants euery man present may bee put in remembrance of his owne profession made to God in his baptisme For which cause also it is expedient that baptisme be ministred in the English tounge Neuerthelesse if necessitie so requeire children may at all times be baptized at home When there are children to bee baptized vpon the Sunday or holy day the parents shall giue knowledge ouer night or in the morning afore the beginning of Morning prayer to the Curate And then the Godfathers Godmothers and people with the children must be ready at the Font either immediatly after the last Lesson at Morning prayer or els immediatly after the last Lesson at Euening prayer as the Curate by his discretion shall appoint And then standing there the Priest shall aske whether the children be baptized or no. If they answere No then shal the Priest say thus DEarely
when all the workers of wickednes do florish then shal they be destroyed for euer but thou Lord art the most highest for euermore For loe thine enemies O Lorde loe thine enemies shall perish and all the workers of wickednesse shal be destroyed But my horne shal be exalted like the horne of an vnicorne for I am annoynted with fresh oyle Mine eye also shall see his lust of mine enemies and mine eare shal heare his desire of the wicked that rise vp against me The righteous shall flourish like a palme tree and shall spread abroad like a Cedar in Libanus Such as bee planted in the house of the Lord shall florish in the courts of the house of our God They also shall bring foorth more fruite in their age and shal be fat and well liking That they may shew how true the Lord my strength is and that there is no vnrighteousnesse in him Dominus regnauit Psal 93. THe Lorde is king Euening prayer and hath put on glorious apparell the Lord hath put on his apparell and girded himselfe with strength He hath made the round world so sure that it cannot be mooued Euer since the world began hath thy seate beene prepared thou art from euerlasting The floods are risen O Lord the floods haue lift vp their voice the floods lift vp their waues The waues of the sea are mightie and rage horribly but yet the Lord that dwelleth on high is mightier Thy testimonies O Lord are very sure holinesse becommeth thine house for euer Deus vltionum Psalm 94. O Lorde God to whom vengeance belongeth thou God to whome vengeance belongeth shew thy selfe Arise thou iudge of the world and reward the proud after their deseruing Lord how long shall the vngodly how long shall the vngodly triumph How long shall all wicked doers speake so disdaincfully and make such proud boasting They smite downe thy people O Lord and trouble thine heritage They murther the widowe and the stranger and put the fatherlesse to death And yet they say Tush the Lord shall not see neither shal the God of Iacob regard it Take heede yee vnwise among the people O yee fooles when will ye vnderstand He that planted the eare shal he not heare or he that made the eye shall not see Or he that nurtureth the heathen it is hee that teacheth man knowledge shall not he punish The Lord knoweth the thoughts of man that they are but vaine Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest O Lord and teachest him in thy Law That thou mayest giue him patience in time of aduersitic vntill the pit be digged vp for the vngodly For the Lord will not faile his people neither will he forsake his inheritance Untill righteousnes turne againe vnto iudgement all such as be true in heart shall follow it Who will rise vp with me against the wicked or who will take my part against the euill doers If the Lord had not helped mee it had not failed but my soule had bene put to silence But when I said my foote hath slipped thy mercie O Lord held me vp In the multitude of the sorowes that I had in my heart thy comforts haue refreshed my soule Wilt thou haue any thing to doe with the stoole of wickednesse which imagineth mischiefe as a law They gather them together against the soule of the rightteous and condemne the innocent blood But the Lord is my refuge and my God is the strength of my confidence He shall recompence them their wickednesse and destroy them in their owne malice yea the Lord our God shall destroy them Venite exultemus Psal 95. O Come Morning prayer let vs sing vnto the Lorde let vs heartily reioyce in the strength of our saluation Let vs come before his presence with thanksgiuing and shew our selues glad in him with Psalmes For the Lord is a great God and a great king aboue all gods In his hand are all the corners of the earth and the strength of the hilles is his also The sea is his and he made it and his hands prepared the dry land O come let vs worship and fall downe and kneele before the Lord our maker For he is the Lord our God and we are the people of his pasture and the sheepe of his hands Today if ye will heare his voyce harden not your hearts as in the prouocation and as in the day of temptation in the wildernesse When your fathers tempted me prooued me and saw my workes Fourtie yeeres long was I grieued with this generation ●nd said it is a people that doe erre in their hearts for they haue not knowen my wayes Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest Cantate Domino Psal 96 O Sing vnto the Lord a new song sing vnto the Lord all the whole earth Sing vnto the Lord and praise his name be telling of his saluation from day to day Declare his honour vnto the heathen and his wonders vnto all people For the Lord is great and can not worthily be praised he is more to be feared then all gods As for all the gods of the heathen they be but idoles but it is the Lord that made the heauens Glory and worship are before him power and honour are in his sanctuarie Ascribe vnto the Lord O ye kinreds of the people ascribe vnto the Lord worship and power Ascribe vnto the lorde the honour due vnto his Name bring presents and come into his courts O worship the Lord in the beautie of holinesse let the whole earth stand in awe of him Tell it out among the heathen that Lord is king and that it is he which hath made the round world so fast that it can not be mooued and how that hee shall iudge the people righteously Let the heauens reioyce and let the earth be glad let the sea make a noyse and all that therein is Let the field be ioyfull and all that is in it then shal all the trees of the wood reioyce before the Lord. For he commeth for he commeth to iudge the earth and with righte ousnesse to iudge the world and the people with his trueth Dominus regnauit Psal 97. The Lord is King the earth may be glad thereof yea the multitude of the Isles may be glad thereof Cloudes and darkenesse are round about him righteousnes and iudgement are the habitation of his seat There shal go a fire before him and burne vp his enemies on euery side His lightnings gaue shine vnto the world the earth sawe it and was afraid The hilles melted like ware at the presence of the Lord at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth The heauens declared his righteousnes and all the people haue seene his glore Confounded be all they that worship carued images and that delight in vaine gods worship him all ye gods Sion heard of it and reioyced and the daughters of Iuda were glad because of thy iudgements O Lord. For thou Lorde art higher
These in conueniences therefore considered here is set foorth such an order where by the same shall be redressed And for a readinesse in this matter hereis drawen out a Kalender for that purpose which is plaine and easie to be vnderstanded wherein so much as may bee the reading of holy Scriptures is so set forth that all things shal be done in order without breaking one piece there of from an other For this cause be cut off Anthemes Responds Inuitatories and such like things as did breake the continuall course of the reading of the Scripture Yet because there is no remedie but that of necessitie there must bee some rules therefore certaine rules are here set foorth which as they bee sewe in number so they be plaine and easie to be vnderstanded So that here you haue an order for prayer as touching the reading of holy Scripture much agreeable to the mind and purpose of the olde fathers and a great deale more profitable and commodious then that which of late was vsed It is more profitable because here are left out many things whereof some be vntrue some vncertaine some vaine and superstitious and is ordeined nothing to be read but the very pure word of God the holy Scriptures or that which is euidently grounded vpon the same and that in such a language and order as is most easie and plaine for the vnderstanding both of the readers and hearers It is also more commodious both for the shortnesse thereof and for the plainnesse of the order and for that the rules be fewe and casie Furthermore by this order the Curates shall neede none other bookes for their publike seruice but this booke and the Bible By the meanes wherof the people shall not bee at so great charges for bookes as in times past they haue bene And where here to fore there hath bene great diuersitie in saying singing in Churches within this Realme some following Salisbury vse some Hereford vse and somc the vse of Bangor some of Yorke some of Lincolne Now from henceforth all the whole Realme shall haue but one vse And if any will iudge this way more painefull because that all things must be read vpon the booke where as before by the reason of so often repetition they could say many things by heart if those men will weigh their labour with the prosire and knowledge which dayly they shall obtaine by reading vpon the booke they will not refuse the payne in consideration of the great profite that shall ensue thereof And forasmuch as nothing can almost be so plainely set forth but doubts mary life in the vse and practising of the same To appease all such diuersity if any arise and for the resolution of all doubts concerning the maner how to vnderstand do and execute the things contained in this Booke The parties that so doubt or diuersly take any thing shall alway resort to the Bishop of the Diocesse who by his diseretion shall rake order for the quieting and appeasing of the same so that the same order be not contrary to any thing contained in this booke And if the Bishop of the Diocesse be in any doubt then he may send for the resolution thereof vnto the Archbishop Though it be appointed in the afore written Presace that all things shall beread and sung in the Church in the English tongue to the ende that the Congregation may be thereby edisied yet it is not meant but when men say Morning Euening prayer priuately they may say the same in any language that they themselues doe vnderstand And all Priests and Deacons shall be bound to say dayly the Morning and Euening prayer either priuately or openly except they be let by preaching studying of diuinity or by some other vrgent cause And the Curate that ministreth in euery parish Church or Chappel being at home and not being otherwise reasonably letted shall say the same in the Parish Church or Chappell where he ministreth and shall toll a bell thereto a conuenient time before he begin that such as be disposed may come to heare Gods word and to pray with him Of Ceremonies why some be abolished and some reteined Of such Ceremonies as be vsed in the Church and haue had their beginning by the inssitutiō of man some at the first were of godly intent purpose deuised and yet at length turned to vanity superstition some entred into the Church by vndiscreet deuotion such a zeale as was without knowledge and for because they were winked at in the beginning they grew dayly to more and more abuses which not only for their vnprofitablenes but also because they haue much blinded the people and obscured the glory of God are worthy to be cut a way and cleane reiected Other there be which although they haue been deuised by man yet it is thought good to reserue them still as well for decent order in the Church for the which they were first deuised as because they pertaine to edification whereunto all things done in the Church as the Apostle teacheth ought to be referred And although the keeping or omitting of a Ceremony in it selfe considered is but a small thing yet the wilfull and contemptuous transgression and breaking of a common order and discipline is no small offence before God Let all things be done among you faith S. Paul in a seemely and due order The appointment of the which order pertaineth not to priuate men therfore no man ought to take in hand nor presume to appoint or alter any publike or common order in Christs Church except he be lawfully called and authorised thereunto And where as in this our time the minds of men are so diuers that some thinke it great matter of conscience to depart frō a piece of the least of their ceremonies they be so addicted to their old customs and againe on the other side some be so new fangled that they would innouate all things so despise the old that nothing can like thē but that is new it was thought expediēt not so much to haue respect how to please satisfie either of thefe parties as how to please God profit them both And yet lest any man should be offended whō good reason might satisfie here be certaine causes rendred why some of the accustomed Ceremonies be put a way and some reteined and kept still Some are put a way because the great excesse and multitude of them hath so increased in these latter dayes that the burden of them was intollerable whereof S. Augustine in his time complained that they were growen to such a number that the state of Christian people was in worse case concerning that matter then were the Iewes And he counselled that such yoke and burden should bee taken a way as time would serue quietly to doe it But what would S. Augustine haue said if he had seen the ceremonies of late daies vsed among vs whereunto the multitude vsed in his time was not

I will go to my father and say to him Father I huve sinned against heaven and against thee I am no more worthy to be called thy sonne Luke xv Enter not into Iudgement with thy seruants O Lord for no flesh is righteous in thy sight Psal exliij If wee say that we haue no sinne wee deceiue our selues and there is no trueth in vs. i. Iohn j. DEarely beloued brethren the scripture mooueth vs in sundry places to acknowledge and confesse our manifolde sinnes and wickednes and that wee should not dissemble nor cloke them before the face of Almighty God our heauenly Father but confesse them with an humble lowly penitent and obedient heart to the ende that wee may obtaine forgiuenesse of the same vy his infinite goodnesse and mercy And although we ought at all times humbly to acknowledge our sinnes before God yet ought wee most chiefly so to doe when wee assemble and meete together to render thankes for the great benefits that we haue received at his hands to set foorth his most worthy prayse to heare his most holy word and to aske those things which be requisite and necessary aswell for the body as the soule Wherefore I pray and beseech you as many as be here present to accompany me with a pure heart and humble voyce vnto the Throne of the heauenly grace saying after me A generall confession to be said of the whole Congregation after the Minister kneeling ALmighty and most mercifull Father wee have erred and strayed from thy wayes like lost sheepe wee haue followed too much the deuices and desires of our owne hearts we have offended against thy holy Lawes we have left vndone those things which wee ought to have done and we haue done those things which wee ought not to haue done and there is no health in vs but thou O Lord haue mercy upon vs miserable offenders spare thou them O God which confesse their faults restore thou them that be penitent according to thy promises vnto mankinde in Christ Iesu our Lord and graunt O most mercifull Father for his sake that we may hereafter liue a godly righteous and sober life to the glory of thy holy Name Amen The absolution or remission of sinnes to be pronounced by the Minister alone ALmighty God the Father of our Lord Iesus Christ which desireth not the death of a sinner but rather that hee may turne from his wickednesse and liue and hath giuen power and commandement to his Ministers to declare and pronounce to his people being penitent the absolution and remission of their sinnes hee pardoneth and absolueth all them which truely repent and vnfainedly beleeue his holy Gospel Wherefore we beseech him to graunt vs true repentance and his holy spirit that those things may please him which wee doe at this present and that the rest of our life hereafter may be pure and holy so that at the last wee may come to his eternallioy through Iesus Christ our Lord. The people shall answere Amen Then shall the Minister begin the Lords prayer with a lowd voyce OUr Father which art in heaven halowed ve thy Name Thy kingdom come Thy wil be done in earth as it is in heauen Give vs this day our daily bread And forgiue vs our trespasses as we forgiue them that trespasse vs. And leade vs not into temptation But deliver vs from evil Amen Then likewise he shall say O Lord open thou our lips Answere And our mouth shall shew foorth thy prayse Priest O God make speed to save vs. Answere O Lord make haste to helpe vs. Priest Glory be to the Father and to the Sonne c.

And yet not three Lords but one Lord. For like as we be compelled by the Christian verity to acknowledge euery person by himselfe to be God and Lord. So are wee forbidden by the Catholique Religion to say there be three Gods or three Lords The Father is made of none neither created nor begotten The Sonne is of the Father alone not made nor created but begotten The holy Ghost is of the Father and of the sonne neither made nor created nor begotten but proceeding So three is one Father not three fathers one Sonne not three sonnes one holy Ghost not three holy ghost And in this Trinitie none is afore or after other none is greater or lesse then another But the whole three persons bee coeternall together and cocquall So that in all things as is aforesaid the Vnitie in Trinitic and the Trintie in Vnitie is to be worshipped Hee therefore that will bee saued must thus thinke of the Trinitie Furthermore it is necessary to everlasting saluation that he also beleeue rigthtly in the incarnation of our Lord Iesus Christ For the right faith is that wee beleeue and confesse that our Lord Iesus Christ the Sonne of God is God and man God of the substance of the father begotten before the worlds and man of the substance of his mother borne in the world Perfect God and perfect man of a reasonable soule and humane flesh subsisting Equall to the Father as touching his godhead and inferior to the Father touching his manhood Who although he be God and man yet he is not two but one Christ One not by conversion of the Godhead into flesh but by taking of the manhood into God One altogether not by confusion of substance but by vnitie of person For as the reasonable soule and flesh is one man so God and man is one Christ Who suffered for our saluation descended into hell rose againe the third day from the dead He ascended into heauen he sitteth on the right hand of the Father God Almighty from whence he shalll come to iudge the quicke and the dead At whose comming all men shall rise againe with their bodies and shall giue accompt for their owne workes And they that haue done good shall goe into life

Seeke the Lord his strength seeke his face euermore Remember the marueilous works that he hath done his wonders and the indgements of his mouth O ye seede of Abraham his seruant ye children of Iacob his chosen Hee is the Lorde our God his iudgements are in all the world He hath bene alway mindfull of his couenant and promise that he made to a thousand generations Euen the couenant that he made with Abraham and the other that he sware vnto Isahac And appointed the same vnto Iacob for a law and to Israel for an euerlasting testament Saying Vnto thee will I giue the land of Chanaan the lot of your inheritance When there were yet but a fewe of them and they strangers in the land What time as they went from one nation to another from one kingdome to another people He suffered no man to doe them wrong but reproued euen kings for their sakes Touch not mine anoynted doe my Prophets no harme Moreouer hee called for a dearth vpon the land and destroyed all the prouision of bread But hee had sent a man before them euen Ioseph which was solde to be a bond seruant Whose feete they hurt in the stockes the yron entred into his soule Until the time came that his cause was knowen the
word of the Lord tryed him The king sent and deliuered him the prince of the people let him goe free Hee made him lorde also of his house and ruler of all his substance That he might informe his princes after his wil and teach his Senators wisedome Israel also came into Egypt and Iacob was a stranger in the land of Ham. And he increased his people exceedingly and made them stronger then their enemies Whose heart turned so that they hated his people and dealt vntruely with his seruants Then sent hee Moses his seruant and Aaron whome hee had chosen And these shewed his tokens among them and wonders in the land of ham He sent darkenesse and it was darke and they were not obedient vnto his word He turned their waters into blood and slue their fish Their land brought forth frogs yea euen in their kings chambers He spake the word and there came all maner of flies and lite in all their quarters Hee gaue them hailestones for raine and flames of fire in their land He smote their vines also and figge trees and destroyed the trees that were in their coasts Hee spake the word and the grashoppers came and caterpillers innumerable and did eate vp all the grasse in their land and deuoured the fruite of their ground He smote all the first borne in their land euen the chiefe of all their strength Hee brought them foorth also with siluer and golde there was not one feeble person among their tribes Egypt was glad at their departing for they were afraide of them He spread out a cloud to be a couering and fire to giue light in the night season At their desire he brought quailes and he filled them with the bread of heauen He opened the rocke of stone and the waters flowed out so that riuers ran in dry places For why he remembred his holy promise and Abraham his seruant And hee brought forth his people with ioy and his chosen with gladnesse And gaue them the landes of the heathen and they tooke the labours of the people in possession That they might keepe his statutes obserue his lawes Confitemini Domino Psal 106.

So the earth opened and swallowed vp Dathan and couered the congregation of Abiram And the fire was kindled in their companie the flame burnt vp the vngodly They made a calfe in Horeb and worshipped the molten image Thus they turned their glory into the similitude of a calf● that eateth hay And they forgate God their Sauiour which had done so great things in Egypt Wonderous workes in the lande of Ham and fearefull things by the red sea So he said he would haue destroyed them had not Moses his chosen stande before him in the gap to turne away his wrathfull indignation lest he should destroy them Yea they thought scorne of that pleasant land and gaue no credence vnto his word But murmured in their tents and hearkened not vnto the voice of the Lord. Then lift hee vp his hande against them to ouerthrowe them in the wildernesse To cast out their seede among the nations and to scatter them in the lands They ioyned themselues vnto Baal Peor and ate the offerings of the dead Thus they prouoked him to anger with their owne inuentions and the plague was great among them Then stood vp Phinees prayed and so the plague ceased And that was counted vnto him for righteousnes among all posterities for euermore They angred him also at the waters of strife so that hee punished Moses for their sakes Because they prouoked his spirit so that he spake vnaduisedly with his lippes Neither destroyed they the heathen as the Lorde commanded them But were mingled among the heathen and learned their workes In so much that they worshipped their idols which turned to their owne decay yea they offered their sonnes and daughters vnto deuils And shed innocent blood euen the blood of their sonnes and of their daughters whome they offered vnto the woles of Chanaan and the land was defiled with blood Thus were they stained with their owne workes went a whoring with their owne inuentions Therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people in so much that he abhorred his owne inheritance And he gaue them ouer into the hand of the heathen and they that hated them were lords ouer them Their enemies oppressed them had them in subiection Many a time did he deliuer them but they rebelled against him with their owne inuentions and were brought downe in their wickednesse Neuerthelesse when hee saw their aduersitie hee heard their complaint Hee thought vpon his couenant and pitied them according vnto the multitude of his mercies yea hee made all those that led them away captiue to pitie them Deliuer vs O Lord our God and gather vs from among the heathen that we may giue thanks vnto thy holy Name and make our boast of thy praise Blessed be the Lord God of Israel from euerlasting and world without end and let all the people say Amen Confitemini Domino Psal 107.

them So they cried vnto the Lord in their trouble and he deliuered them from their distresse He led them foorth by the right way that they might go to the citie where they dwelt O that men would therfore praise the Lord for his goodnes and declare the wonders that he doth for the children of men For hee satisfieth the emptie soule and filleth the hungrie soule with goodnesse Such as sit in darknesse and in the shadow of death being fast bound in miserie and yron Because they rebelled against the words of the Lord and lightly regarded the counsaile of the most high Hee also brought downe their heart through heauinesse they fell downe and there was none to helpe them vp So when they cried vnto the Lorde in their trouble hee deliuered them out of their distresse For he brought them out of darkenesse and out of the shadow of death and brake their bonds in sunder O that men would therefore praise the Lord for his goodnesse and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men For he hath broken the gates of brasse smitten the barres of yron in sunder Foolish men are plagued for their offence and because of their wickednesse Their soule abhorreth all maner of meate and they were euen hard at deaths doore So when they cryed vnto the Lord in their trouble he deliuered them out of their distresse He sent his worde and healed them and they were saued from their destruction O that men would therefore praise the Lord for his goodnesse and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men That they would offer vnto him the sacrifice of thankesgiuing and tell out his workes with gladnesse They that goe downe to the sea in ships and occupie their businesse in great waters These men see the workes of the Lord and his wonders in the deepe For at his word the stormie winde ariseth which lifteth vp the waues thereof They are caried vp to the heauen and downe againe to the deepe their soule melteth away because of the trouble They reele to and fro and stagger like a drunken man and are at their wits end So when they crie vnto the Lord in their trouble he deliue●th them out of their distresse For he maketh the storme to cease so that the waues thereof are still Then are they glad because they be at rest and so he bringeth them vnto the hauen where they would be O that men would therefore praise the Lord for his goodnesse and declare the wonders that he doeth for the children of men Th●● they would exa● him also in the Congregation of the people and prayse him in the seate of the elders Which turneth the floods into a wildernesse and drieth vp the water springs A fruitfull land maketh hee barren for the wickednesse of them that dwell therein Againe he maketh the wildernesse a standing water and water springs of a drie ground And there he setteth the hungry that they may build them a citie to dwell in That they may sowe their land and plant vineyardes to yeeld them fruits of increase He blesseth them so that that they multiplie exceedingly suffereth not their cattell to decrease And againe when they are minished and brought lowe through oppression through any plague or trouble Though hee suffer them to bee euill entreated through tyrants and let them wander out of the way in the wildernes Yet helpeth hee the poore out of miserie and maketh him housholds like a flocke of sheepe The righteous will consider this reioyce and the mouth of all wickednesse shal be stopped Who so is wise will ponder these things and they shall vnderstand the louing kindnesse of the Lord.

kindnesse Thy word is true from euerlasting all the iudgements of thy righteousnesse endure for euermore Principes persecuti sunt PRinces haue perseruted me without a cause but my heart standeth in awe of the words I am as glad of thy worde as one that findeth great spoyles As for lyes I hate and abhorre them but thy law doe I loue Seuen times a day doe I praise thee because of thy righteous iudgements Great is the peace that they haue which loue thy Law and they are not offended at it Lord I haue looked for thy sauing health and done after thy commandements My soule hath kept thy

soule liue and it shall praise thee and thy iudgements shall helpe me I haue gone astray like a sheepe that is lost Oh seeke thy seruant for I doe not forget thy commandements Ad Dominum Psal 120. When I was in trouble Morning prayer I called vpon the Lord and he heard me Deliuer my soule O Lord from lying lippes and from a deceitfull tongue What reward shall be giuen or done vnto thee thou false tongue euen mighty and sharpe arrowes with hote burning coales Woe is me that I am constrained to dwell with Mesech and to haue mine habitation among the tents of Cedar My soule hath long dwelt among them that be enemies vnto peare I labour for peare but when I speake vnto them thereof they make them readie to battaile Leuaui oculos Psal 121. I will lift vp mine eyes vnto the hilles from whence commeth my helpe My helpe commeth euen from the Lorde which hath made heauen and earth He will not suffer thy foote to be mooued and he that keepeth thee will not sleepe Behold hee that keepeth Israel shall neithet slumber nor sleepe The Lord himself is thy keeper the Lord is thy defence vpon thy right hand So that the sunne shall not burne the by day neither the moone by night The Lord shall preserue thee from all euill yea it is euen he that shall keepe thy soule The Lord shall preserue thy going out and thy comming in from this time foorth for euermore Laetatus sum Psal 122. I was glad when they said
vuto me We will goe into the house of the Lord. Our seete shall stand in thy gates O Hierusalem Hierusalem is builded as a citie that is at vnitie in it selfe For thither the tribes goe vp euen the tribes of the Lord to testifie vnto Israel to giue thankes vnto the Name of the Lord. For there is the seate of iudgement euen the seate of the house of Dauid O pray for the peate of Ierusalem they shall prosper that loue thee Peace bee within thy walles and plentconsuesse within thy palaces For my brethren and companions sakes I will with thee prosperitie Yea because of the house of the Lord our God I wil seeke to doe thee good Ad te leuaui oculos meos Psal 123. VNto thee lift I vp mine eyes O thou that dwellest in the heauens Beholde euen as the eyes of seruants looke vnto the hand of their masters and as the eyes of a mayden vnto the hand of her mistresse euen so our eyes waite vpon the Lord our God vntill he haue mercie vpon vs. Haue mercie vpon vs O Lord haue mercie vpon vs for we are vtterly despised Our soule is filled with the scornefnll reproofe of the wealthy and with the dispitefulnesse of the proud Nisi quia Dominus Psal 124. IF the Lorde himselfe had not bene on our side now may Israel say if the Lorde himselfe had not bene on one side when men rose vp against vs. They had swallowed vs vp quicke when they were so wrathfully displeased at vs. Yea the waters had drowned vs and the streame had gone ouer our soule The deepe waters of the proude had gone euen ouer our soule But praised be the Lord which hath not giuen vs ouer for a pray vnto their teeth Our soule is escaped euen as a bird out of the snare of the fouler the snare is broken and we are deliuered Our helpe standeth in the Name of the Lord which hath made heauen and earth Qui confidunt Psal 125. They that put their trust in the Lord shall be euen as the mount Sion which may not be remooued but standeth fast for euer The his stand about Hierusalem euen so standeth the Lord round about his people from this time foorth for euermore For the rod of the vngodly commeth not into the lot of the righteous least the righteous put their hand vnto wickednesse Doe well O Lord vnto those that be good and true of heart As for such as turne backe vnto their owne wickednesse the Lord shall lead them forth with the euill doers but peace shall be vpon Israel In conuertendo Psal 126. WHen the Lord turned againe the captiuitie of Sion Euening prayer then were we like vnto them that dsreame Then was our mouth filled with laughter and our tongue with ioy Then said they among the Heathen the Lord hath done great things for them Yea the Lorde hath done great things for vs alreadie whereof we reioyce Turne our captiuity O Lord as the riuers in the South They that sowe in teares shall reape in ioy He that now goeth on his way weeping and beareth forth good seede shall doubtlesse come againe with ioy and bring his sheaues with him Nisi Dominus Psal 127. Except the Lorde build the house their labour is but lost that build it Except the Lord keepe the city the watchman waketh but in baine It is but lost labour that yee haste to rise vp earely and so late take rest and eate the bread of carefulnesse for so hee giueth his beloued sleepe Loe children and the fruite of the wombe are an heritage and gift that commeth of the Lord. Like as the arrowes in the hand of the Giant euen so are the yong children Happie is the man that hath his quiuer full of them they shal not be ashamed when they speake with their enemies in the gate Beati omnes Psal 128. BLessed are all they that feare the Lord and walke in his wayes For thou shalt eate the labours of thine hands O well is thee and happie shalt thou be Thy wife shall be as the fruitfull vine vpon the walles of thine house Thy children like the Oliue branches round about thy table Loe thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord. The Lord from out of Sion shall so blesse thee that thou shalt see Hierusalem in prosperitie all thy life long Yea that thou shalt see thy childrens children and peace vpon Israel Saepe expugnauerunt psal 129. MAny a time haue they fought against mee from my youth vp may Israel now say Yea many a time haue they vexed mee from my youth vp but they haue not preuailed against me The plowers plowed vpon my backe and made long furrowes But the righteous Lord hath hewen the snares of the vngodly in pieces Let them be confounded and turned backward as many as haue euill will at Sion Let them bee euen as the grasse growing vpon the house tops Which Withereth afore it be plucked vp Where of the mower filleth not his hand neither hee that bindeth vp the sheaues his bosome So that they Which goe by say not so much as the Lord prosper you We Wish you good lucke in the name of the Lord. De profundis Psal 130. OUt of the deep haue I called vnto thee O Lord Lord heare my voice Oh let thine eyes consider well the voice of my complaint If thou Lord wilt beeextreme to marke what is done amisse O Lord Who may abide it For there is mercie With thee theefore shalt thou be feared I looke for the Lord my soule doth waite for him in his word is my trust My soule fleeth vnto the Lord before the morning watch I say before the morning watch O Israel trust in the Lord for with the Lord there is mercie and with him is plenteous redemption And he shall redeeme Israel from all his sinnes Domine non est psal 131 LOrd I am not high minded I haue no proud lookes I doe note exercise my selfe in great matters which are too high for me But I refraine my soule and keepe it low like as a childe that is weaned from his mother yea my soule is euen as a weaned childe O Israel trust in the Lord from this time forth for euermore Memento Domine Psal 132. LOrde remember Dauid Morning prayer and all his trouble How he sware vnto the Lord and bowed a bowe vnto the Almightie God of Iacob I will not come within the tabernacle of mine house nor clime vp into my bed I will not suffer mine eyes to sleepe nor mine eye liddes to slumber neither the temples of my head to take any rest Untill I finde out a place for the temple of the Lord an habitation for the mightie God of Iacob Loe we heard of the same at Ephrata and found it in the wood We will goe into his tabenacle and follow on our knees before his foote stoole Arise O Lord into thy resting place thou and the arke of thy strength Let thy
Priests be clothed with righteousnesse and let thy Saints sing with ioy fulnesse For thy seruant Dauids sake turne not away the presence of thine anoynted The Lord hath made a faithfull othe vnto Dauid and he shall not shrinke from it Of the fruite of thy body shall I set vpon thy seate If thy children will keepe my couenant and my testimonies that I shal learne them their children also shall sit vpon thy seate for euermore For the Lorde hath chosen Sion to bee an habitation for himselfe he hath longed for her This shall bee my rest for euer heere will I dwell for I haue a delight therein I will blesse her vitailes with increase and wil satisfie her poore with bread I will decke her Priests with healthy and her saints shall reioyce and sing There shal I make the horne of Dauid to florish I haue ordeined a lanterne for mine anointed As for his enemies I shall clothe them with shame but vpon himselfe shall his crowne florish Ecce quàm bonum Psal 133. BEhold how good and ioyful a thing it is brethren to dwell together in vnitie It is like the precious oyntment vpon the head that ranne downe vnto the beard euen vnto Aarons beard and went downe to the skirtes of his clothing Like as the dewe of Hermon which fell vpon the hill of Sion For three the Lord promised his blessing and life for cuermore Ecce nunc Psal 134. BEholde nowe praise the Lorde all yee seruants of the Lord Ye that by night stand in the house of the Lord euen in the courts of the house of our God Lift vp your hands in the sanctuarie and praise the Lord. The Lord that made heauen and earth giue thee blessing out of Sion Laudate nomen Psal 135. O Praise the Lord laud ye the Name of the Lord praise it O ye seruants of the Lord. Yee that stand in the house of the Lord in the courts of the house of our God O praise the Lord for the Lord is gracious O sing praises vnto his Name for it is louely For why the Lord hath chosen Iacob vnto himselfe and Israel for his owne prossession For I knowe that the Lorde is great and that our Lord is aboue all gods Whatsoeuer the Lord pleased that did he in heauen and in earth and in the sea and in all deepe places He bringeth forth the clouds from the endes of the world and sendeth foorth lightenings with the raine bringing the windes out of his treasures He smote the first borne of Egypt both of man and beast He hath sent tokens and wonders into the middest of thee O thou land of Egypt vpon Pharao and all his seruants He smote diuers nations and flew mightie kings Sehon king of the Amorites and Og the king of Basan and all the kingdomes of Chanaan And gaue their land to bee an heritage euen an heritage vnto Israel his people Thy Name O Lord endureth for euer doeth thy memoriall O Lord from one generation to another For the Lord wil auenge his people and be gracious vnto his seruants As for the images of the heathen they are but siluer and gold the worke of mens hands They haue mouthes and speake not eyes haue they but they see not They haue eares and yet thay heare not neither is there any breath in their mouthes They that make them are like vnto them and so are all they that put their trust in them Praise the Lorde yee house of Israel praise the Lorde yee house of Aaron Praise the Lorde ye house of Leui ye that feare the Lord praise the Lord. Praised be the Lorde out of Sion which dwelleth at Hierusalem Confitemini Psal 136. O Giue thankes vnto the Lord Euening prayer for he is gracious and his mercie endureth for euer O giue thankes vnto the God of all gods for his mercie endureth for euer O thanke the Lord of all lordes for his mercie endureth for euer Which onely doeth great woonders for his mercie endureth for euer Which by his excellent wisdome made the heauenens for his mercie endureth for euer Which laid out the earthy aboue the waters for his mercie endureth for euer Which hath made great lights for his mercie endureth for euer The sunne to rule the day for his mercie endureth for euer The moone and the starres to gouerne the night for his mercie endureth for euer Which sinote Egypt with their first borne for his mercie endureth for euer And brought out Israel from among them for his mercie endureth for euer With a mighty hand and a stretched out arme for his mercie endureth for euer Which diuided the redde Sea in two parts for his mercie endureth for euer And made Israel to goe through the middest of it for his mercie endureth for euer But as for Pharao and his hoste hee overthrewe them in the red sea for his mercie endureth for euer Which ledde his people through the wildernesse for his mercie endureth for euer Which sinote great Kings for his mercie endureth for euer Yea and slew mightie Kings for his mercie endureth for euer Sehon King of the Amorities for his mercie endureth for euer And Og the King of Basan for his mercie endureth for euer And gaue away their lande for an heritage for his mercie endureth for euer Euen for an heritage vnto Israel his seruant for his mercie endureth for euer Which remembred vs when wee were in trouble for his mercie endureth for euer And hath deliuered vs from our enemies for his mercie endureth for euer Which giucth foode to all flesh for his mercy endureth for euer O giue thankes vnto the God of heauen for his mercy endureth for euer O giue thankes vnto the Lord of lords for his mercie endureth for euer Super flumina Psal 137. By the waters of Babylon we sate downe and wept when we remembred thee O Sion As for our harpes we hanged them vp vpon the trees that are therein For they that ledde vs away captiue required of vs then a song and melodie in our heauinesse sing vs one of the songs of Sion How shall we sing the Lords song in a strange land If I forget thee O Hierusalem let my right hand forget her cunning If I do not remember thee let my tongue cleaue to the roofe of my mouth yea if I prferre not Hierusalem in my mirth Remember the children of Edom O Lorde in the day of Hierusalem how they said Downe with it downe with it euen to the ground O daughter of Babylon wasted with miserie yea happie shall he be that rewardeth thee as thou hast serued vs. Blessed shall he be that taketh thy children and throweth them against the stones Confitebor tibi Psal 138. I wil giue thanks vnto thee O Lord with my whole heart euen before the gods will I sing praise vnto thee I will worship toward thy holy Temple and praise thy Name because of thy louing kindnesse and trueth for thou hast magnified thy Name and
thy word aboue all things When I called vpon thee thou heardest me and enduedst my soule with much strength All the Kings of the earth shall prayse thce O Lord for they haue heard the words of thy mouth Yea they shall sing the wayes of the Lord that great is the glorie of the Lord. For though the Lord be high yet hath he respect vnto the lowly as for the proude he beholdeth them a farre off Though I walke in the middest to trouble yet shalt thou refresh mee thou shalt stretch foorth thine hand vpon the furiousnesse of mine enemies and thy right hand shal saue me The Lord shall make good his louing kindenesse toward mee yea thy mercie O Lord eudureth for euer despise not then workes of thine owne hands Domine probasti psal 139 O Lord Morning prayer thou hast searched mee out and knowen mee thou knowest my downe sitting mine vprising thou vnderstandest my thoughts long before Thou art about my path and about my bed and spiest out al my wayes For loe there is not a word in my toungue but thon O Lorde knowest it altogether Thou hast fashioned me behinde and before and laid thine hand vpon me Such knowledge is too wonderfull and excellent for mee I cannot attaine vnto it Whither shall I goe then from thy spirit or whither shall I goe then from thy presence If I clime vp into heauen thou art there If go downe in hell thou art there also If I take the wings of the morning and remaine in the vttermost parts of the sea Euen there also shall thy hand leade mee and thy right hand shall hold me If I say Peraduenture the darkenesse shall couer mee then shall my night be turned to day Yea the darkenesse is no darkenesse with thee but the night is as cleare as the day the darknesse and light to thee are both alike For my reines are thine thou hast couered mee in my mothers wombe I will giue thankes vnto thee for I am fearefully and wonderfully made marueilous are thy works and that my soule knoweth right well My bones are not hid from thee though I be made secretly and fashioned beneath in the earth Thine eyes did see my substance yet being vnperfect and in thy booke were all my members written which day by day were fashioned when as yet there was none of them How deare are thy counsels vnto mee O God O how great is the sumine of them If I tell them they are moe in number then the sand when I wake vp I am present with thee Wilt thou not slay the wicked O God Depart from me ye bloodthirstie men For they speake vnrighteously against thee and thine enemies take thy name in vaine Doe not I hate them O Lord that hate thee and am not I grieued with those that rise vp against thee Yea I hate them right fore euen as though they were mine enemies Trie me O God and seeke the ground of my heart prooue me and examine my thoughts Looke well if there be any may of wickednesse in me and leade me the may euerlasting Eripe me Domine Psal 140. DEliuer me O Lord from the euill man and preserue me from the wicked man Which imagine mischiefe in their hearts and stirre vp strife all the day long They haue sharpened their tongues like a Serpent Adders poyson is vnder their lips Keepe mee O Lord from the handes of the vngodly Preserue mee from the wicked men which are purposed to ouerthrow my goings The proud haue laid a fanare for me and spread a net aborad with cordes yea and set traps in my way I said vnto the Lord Thou art my God heare the boyce of my prayers O Lord. O Lord God Tbou strength of my health thou hast couered my head in the day of battell Let not the vngodly haue his desire O Lord let not his mischicuous imagination prosper lest they be too proud Let the mischiefe of their owne lips fall vpon the head of them that compasse me about Let hotte burning coales fall vpon them let them bee cast into the fire and into the pit that they neuer rise vp againe A man full of wordes shall not prosper vpon the earth euill shall hunt the wicked person to ouerthrow hilll Sure I am that the Lorde will auenge the poore and maintaine the cause of the helelesse The righteous also shall guie thankes vnto they name and the ●ust shall continue in thy sight Domine clamaui psal 141. LOrd I call vpon thee haste thee vnto mee and consider my voyce when I crie vnto thee Let my prayer bee set foorth in thy sight as the incense and let the lifting vp of my hands be an euening facrifice Set a watch O Lorde before my mouth and keepe the doore of my lips O let not mine heart be cnclined to any euill thing let mee not be occupied in vngodly workes with the man that worke Wickednesse left I eate of such things as please them Let the righteous rather smite me friendiy and reprooue me But let not their precious balmes breake mine head yea I will pray yet against their wickednesse Let their iudges be ouerthrowen in ftony places that they may heare my wordes for they are sweete Our bones lie scattered before the pit like as when one breaketh and he weth wood vpon the earth But mine eyes looke vnto thee O Lorde God in thee is my trust O cast not out my soule Keepe mee from the snare which they haue laide for mee and from the traps of the wicked doers Let the vngodly fall into their owne nets together and let me euer escape them Voce mea ad Dominum Psal 142. ICried vnto the Lord with my voyce Euening prayer yea euen vnto the Lord did I make my supplication I powred out my complaints before him and shewed him of my trouble When my spirite was in heauinesse thou knewest my path in the way wherein I walked haue they priuily laid a snare for me I looked also vpon my right hand and sawe there was no man that would know me I had no place to flee vnto and no man cared for my soule I cried vnto thee O Lorde and sayd thou art my hope and my portion in the land of the liuing Consider my complaint for I am brought very low O deliuer mee from my persecutours for they are too strong for me Bring my soule out of prison that I may giue thankes vnto thy name which thing if thou wilt graunt mee then shall the righteous resort vnto my companie Domine exaudi Psal 143.
