thy bottomlesse mercie for I confesse I haue most greeuously sinned against the throne of thy glory and before thee O Father in so much as I am no more worthy to be called thy sonne neuerthelesse forasmuch as thou art the God and Father of all comfort and desirest not the death of a sinner but like a true Samaritan takest thought for my seely wounded soule Make mee I pray thee by infunding thy precious oyle of comfort into my woundes ioyfully to runne with the lost Sonne vnto the lappe of thine euerlasting pittie For loe thou art my hope and trust in whom I onely repose my selfe hauing in thee full confidence and stedfast fayth and so I say with a very true and faythfull hart trusting only in thy mercie I beleeue in thee O God the Father in thee O God the Sonne and in thee O God the holy Ghost three persons and one true and also very God besides whom I acknowledge none other God in heauen aboue nor in the earth beneath yea and I poore miserable sinner doe accuse my selfe vnto thee deare Father that I haue sore and greeuosly offended thy Almighty goodnesse and maiestie in the committing of mine abundant and manifolde sinnes and wretchednesse which exceede the number of the Sandes in the Sea and haue not kept the least of thy most godly and blessed commaundementes lyke as thy righteousnes may require and demaunde the same of me which if thou Lord shouldest so require

nor trusted in thee lyke my creator and Sauiour Thy holy and dreadfull name vnto whom all honour glory of duetie belongeth haue I vsed in vayne I haue not sanctified the holy dayes with works which be acceptable vnto thee nor in instructing my neighbour in vertue accordingly I haue not honoured my Parentes nor been obedient vnto them The high powers rulers which take their authority of thee I haue not been willingly obedient vnto I haue not kept myne hart pure and cleane from man slaughter theft adulterie enuie malice hatred disdaynefulnes pride couetousnes drunkennes gluttonie wantonnesse backbyting slaunder falsehood and false-witnes bearyng but haue in my hart and minde wyshed and desired my neighbours goodes and thinges I haue folowed the great Prince of this worlde Satan which hath been a lyar euen from the beginnyng in concupisence of the flesh in deceitfulnesse in all kinde of euyll and wicked lyuing in thought worde and deede in dispayre and also mysbeliefe But in what manner soeuer that I haue offended and sinned agaynst thy eternall Maiestie for no man knoweth throughly his sinnes as the prophet witnesseth whether it hath been by day or els by nyght yea euen from my chyldhood vnto this day were it in wordes workes or thoughtes secretly or openly O most mercifull God and heauenly Father I am most sorie for it euen from the bottom of my hart yea and my soule mourneth for very sorow within me O most mercifull Father that I am not a thousande tymes more soryer then I am Howbeit in token of my great and vnfeigned repentance though all hartes be knowen well ynough vnto thee I do cry and call vnto thee for refuge in the bitternesse of my hart and soule Lord God and Father haue mercie Lord God and Sonne haue mercie and Lord God holy Ghost haue mercie Spare mee good Lord of thine infinite mercie both now and all the dayes of my life and graunt mee of thine aboundant grace so as I may change my sinfull life and put off the olde man with all his euyll concupisence and deceiueable lustes and that I may die vnto the worlde and so goe foorth in a new life Strengthen thou mee O Lord I humblie beseech thee in a true humble lowlie and perfect hart faythfully to loue hope and trust in thee Giue my soule most heauenly Father the grace of thy holy spirit to desire thee onely in thee onely to reioyce and repose my selfe and that I may vtterly renounce and forsake the vanities and vaine affiance and delightes of this worlde so that thou mayest finde mee readie with the good Seruant in the midnight of my death which shall sodaynely steale vpon mee like a theefe eare I be aware Bee thou vnto mee at that time of neede O Lord a Tower of strength a Pallace of refuge and a defencible God namely against the face of the feende who like a roring Lyon wil be then most readie to deuoure me and against desperation which then wil be busie to grieue and assayle mee Graunt mee most mercifull Sauiour that when death shall shut vp the eyes of this my mortall body yet that the eyes of my soule may still beholde and looke vpon thee with a liuely and perfect fayth that when death hath taken away the vse of my tongue and outward senses yet that my hart and soule may cry and say vnto thee O Lord into thy handes I giue and commit my soule Lord Iesu receiue my spirit vnto thee Fetch then againe Lord God the Father I humblie beseech thee that which thy wisedome and puissant might hath shapen and fashioned Fetch then againe Lord God the Sonne that which thou hast so wisely and carefully gouerned and bought with the deare price of thy most precious blood Take then againe thou Lord God holy Ghost that which thou hast kept and preserued so louingly in this region of sinne and vale of miserie Vnto whom as of right and duetie belongeth be all honour power prayse and glory for euer and euer worlde without ende Amen Despise not a man that turneth himselfe away from sinne nor cast him not in the teeth withall but remember that we are all worthy blame Ecclus. 8.5 Imprinted at London by William White 1598.
