at this Day By Lying Detraction and contumely by censuring and rash Judgments by false Witness and perverting the course of Justice we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By Desire of Change and Uncontentedness in our Estates by giving our selves over to lustful covetous and inordinate Affections by desire of Peace not so much for thine own Honour or the publick Good as the Satisfaction of our own private Lusts by neglecting Acts of Charity and doing as we would be done unto and not doing our Duty in that State of Life unto the which it hath pleased thee to call us we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By our want and neglect of those necessary Christian Duties of Humiliation and godly Sorrow for Sins of due Indignation and Revenge upon our selves for them of confessing and forsaking of Restitution and Satisfaction to others and by not bringing forth Fruits worthy of Repentance we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By Impatience under thy correcting Hand by not endeavouring our Amendment by it in reflecting upon our Sins as the Causes of it by despising thy Chastisements in not rejoycing in Tribulations and not glorifying thee that hast counted us worthy to suffer for Righteousness sake we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By fretting our selves because of the ungodly and being envious at the evil doers by not loving our Enemies not blessing them that curse us not doing good to them that hate us not praying for those that despitefully use us and persecute us we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By presuming to do evil that good may come thereon by placing Piety in Opinions by straining at Gnats and swallowing of Camels by scrupling at Things indifferent and making no Conscience of known Sins we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By running into open Prophaneness under Colour of avoiding Superstition by guiding our Conscience by Humours Fancies and not by the certain Rules of thy Law by having itching Ears and heaping to our selves Teachers and by having Mens Persons in Admiration because of advantage we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By our unreformed continuing in our former Sins since thy heaviest Judgments came out against us our not melting not turning to thee in Humiliation and Contrition and Change of Life or not preparing to meet our God when he is come out in Fury against us we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By those open or secret but still unmortified crying Sins of a wretched People which have so enraged a long suffering God as to deliver up our Glory the Joy of our Hearts and the Breath of our Nostrils into the Power and Malice of bloody Men to be assaulted with a Rage that reacheth up to Heaven we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By our fatal Stupidity under this Vengeance of thine our Want of Zeal of Courage of a due Detestation of so vile an Enterprize our not confessing of thee when we have been most signally called unto it we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By bowing our Shoulders to bear and crouching down with Issachar under our Burthens because the Land is pleasant and Rest seemed good unto us by not putting out our selves and restoring our Soveraign but neglecting that Prize that thou wast pleased lately to put into our Hands and forsaking our own Mercy we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By our too much Formality and Coldness in our Devotion by being wearied at the Return of our Days of Humiliation and secretly repining at the length and frequency of our Prayers by honouring thee with our Lips while our Hearts have been far from thee especially we of this Family have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day By preferring Sacrifice before Obedience and by holding fast our Iniquities and yet thinking to be heard for our much speaking we have provoked and rebelled against thee O Lord Righteousness belongs to thee But unto us Confusion of Face as at this Day Who can tell how oft he offendeth O cleanse thou us from our secret Sins Try us O Lord God and search the ground of our Hearts prove and examine our Thoughts and look well if there be any other way of Wickedness in us and lead us in the way everlasting A Prayer O Almighty and most Merciful Father who art the Lord the Lord God merciful and gracious long suffering and abundant in Goodness and Truth keeping Mercy for Thousands and forgiving Iniquity Transgression and Sins Look down upon us with thy compassionate Eyes who are here before thee in the Bitterness of our Souls and do now with troubled Spirits with broken and contrite Hearts

People that those Sins rise not up against us for his Passions sake expose us not for a Prey to their cruel Hands who would both devour and deride us Spare us Lord spare thy People for the Glory of thy Name O deliver us and be merciful to all these our Sins through Jesus Christ our Lord Amen The Absolution to be pronounced by the Priest only ALmighty God our Heavenly Father who of his great Mercy hath promised Forgiveness of Sins to all them that with hearty Repentance and true Faith turn unto him Have mercy upon you pardon and deliver you from all your Sins confirm and strengthen you in all Goodness and bring you to everlasting Salvation both of Body and Soul through Jesus Christ our Lord Amen The Lord's Prayer OUR Father which art in Heaven Hallowed be thy Name Thy Kingdom come thy will be done in Earth as it is in Heaven Give us this Day our daily bread And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive them that trespass against us And lead us not into temptation but deliver us
