An exhortation vnto prayer thoughte mete by the kinges maiestie and his clergy to be read to the people in euery church afore processyons Also a Letanie with suffrages to be said or song in the tyme of the said processyons FORASMVCHE as prayer is the veray true meane ordeyned of almightie god and taught vs playnly in his holy word wherby not onely we may but also by gods holy cōmandement be bounden to haue a recourse and a refuge for helpe and ayde of almightie god our heauenly father not onely in all our necessities and tribulations of this world but also vniuersally in all our affaires and businesses what soeuer shalbe fall vnto vs orels what soeuer thing we shall enterprise or take in hand And forasmuch also as our father in heauen of his mere mercie and infinite goodnes hath bounden him self by his owne free promise and certified vs of the same by his owne sonne our onely sauiour and lorde CHRIST IESV in his gospel that what soeuer we shall aske of him we shall haue it so that we aske such thinges and in suche sorte as we ought to doo For these causes good christian people beynge thus grounded vpon the sure foundation of goddis holie blessed word which can not deceiue vs We are here at this time gathered togither to make our comon prayer to our heauenly father But nowe good christian people that by the true vse of praier we may obteine and enioye his gratious promise of aidé comforte and consolation in al our affayres and necessities two thinges concerning prayer are specially to be learned The first is to knowe for what thynges we ought to make our request and petition in our praier The second is in what wise we shuld make our prayer in suche sorte as it may be acceptably hearde and graciously graunted of our heauenly father ¶ As for the first we ought instantly to aske of our heauenly father his holy and blessid spirite godly wisedome faith charitie and to feare and dreade him and that his holy name in al thingis and euery where thorough al the hole world may be glorified that his kyngedome maye come vnto vs that is to saye that here he may reigne in vs by the faith of his welbeloued sonne our sauiour IESV CHRIST and after this lyfe also to reigne in vs and ouer vs euerlastingly in glorye We ought to pray that his blessed wyl may be fulfylled here in this world emōges vs his mortall creatures as it is of his immortall angels and of al the holy company of the heauenly spirites We muste pray for our dayly breade that is for our necessary fode and sustenāce bothe of body and soule Of body as meate drinke and necessary apparaile peace helthe and what soeuer god knoweth to be necessary for the behofe and conseruation of the same that we may do to our lorde god true seruice therwith euery man in his state and vocation wherevnto god hath called hym Of the soule as the word of god and the true knowledge of the same the true conseruation of our heauenlye fathers holy and blessid cōmandementis the liuely bread of the blessed body of our sauiour Iesu Christe the holy and sacrate cuppe of the precious and blessed bludde whiche was shed for vs vpon the Crosse to purchase vs pardon and forgyuenes of our synnes Furthermore we must pray for the forgiuenes of our synnes that our heauenly father wyll be mercyfull vnto vs and forgyue vs our synnes bothe many and great wherby we offende againste his infinite goodnes as we do forgiue the offences of them that offend vs. whiche howe great so euer they appere vnto vs yet in comparison of the offences that we do against god they be bothe small and fewe We muste pray that oure heauenly father suffre vs not to be ledde into temptation for without his continuall aide and protection we are but weke and soone ouerthrowen Our gostely ennemy is stronge violent fierse subtyll and exceding cruell And therfore we muste cōtinually pray with all instāce that in al his assaultes we may be deliuered by the mighty hāde of our heauenly father from al euyll Fynally and before all thing as saint Paule exhorteth vs in the fyrst epistle to Timothe Let vs make our prayers and supplycations rendrynge and gyuyng of thankes for all men and namely for kynges princis and al other set in

concorde emonges them selfes euer callyng vppon theyr heauenly father whiche is the king of all kynges and the lorde of all lordes which shall iudge without respecte of persone accordynge to euery mās doing or workes at whose hande the weake shall take no wronge nor the myghty may not by any power escape his iuste iudgement That our princes I say thus calling vppon theyr heauenly father for grace maye euer in all their affaires be directed and gouerned by the holie spirite of god and bothe rule and be ruled by his holy feare to their owne endles ioye comforte and consolation and to theyr owne euerlastyng saluation thorough our sauiour Iesus Christ ☞ AND here specially let vs pray for our moste dere and soueraigne lorde the Kynges maiesty who dothe not onely study and care dayly and hourely for our prosperitie and wealth but also spareth not to spende his substance and treasure yea redye at all tymes to endaunger hym self for the tender loue and fatherly zeale that he bereth towarde this his realme and the subiectes of the same Who at this present tyme hath taken vpon hym the great and dangerous affayres of warre Lette vs praye that it may please almyghty god lorde of hostes in whose
