them and not for you Awake I saie awake awake SINNER And yet ô Lord the little whelps would licke the crums that fall Thy chosen sort are verie few but manie doost thou call CHRIST I call to you that will not heare I stretch mine armes at large For to imbrace such as doo come and all your sinnes discharge Wherefore if you refuse to come I will you then forsake And to my feast will strangers call

that puts his trust in thee And mercie grant to purge my sinnes mercie good Lord mercie My soule desires to drinke from fountaine of thy grace To slake this thirst ô God vouchsafe and turne not of thy face But bow thy bending eare with mercie when I crie And pardon grant for sinfull life mercie good Lord mercie Behold at length ô Lord my sore repentant mind Which knocks with faith hopes therby thy

working of the feend such be his wilie waies With ●ust to set my hart on fire whereby my health decaies Such pleasant baites laies he abroad with pois'ned hookes of sin And traines my senses all

thine ire But mine offenses manifold thy mercies great desire And since by mercie I must win thy fauour and thy grace From my misdeeds and sinfull life with mercie turne thy face ¶ Another to the same purpose My soule ô God doth now confesse a wicked life long led in sinne And how the same to thee is knowne ere that my lips to speake begin Such is the fruit such is the tree with mercie Lord deliuer

sighes and sobs I saie ô God I not denie my youth with follie hath deseru'd with follie for to die But yet if euer sinfull man might mer╌cie mooue to ruth Good Lord with mercie doo forgiue the follies of my youth In youth I rangde the fields where vices all did grow In youth I wanted grace such vice to ouerthrow In youth what I thought sweet most bitter now I find Thus hath the follies of my youth with follie kept me blind Yet as the Eagle cast's hir bill whereby hir age renut'h So Lord with mercie doo forgiue the follies of my youth Amen A psalme of reioising for the woonderfull loue of Christ ratified by his meritorious death and passion for our spirituall redemption LEt vs be glad and clap our hands with ioie our soules to fill For Christ hath paid the price of sinne with mercie and good will By his good will he flesh became for sinfull fleshes sake By his good will disdained not most shamefull death to take By his good will his blood was spilt his bodie all to rent By his good will to saue vs all he therewith was content By his good will death hath no power our sinfull soules to kill For Christ hath paid the price of sinne with mercie and good will Since Christ so dearelie loued vs let vs from sinne refraine For Christ desireth nothing els in lieu of all his paine And that we should each other loue as he vs loou'd before So shall his loue abide in vs and dwell for euermore

Trinitie O Thou almightie omnipotent and euerlasting God the father of heauen I doo beleeue confesse and acknowledge thee to be the God of all power and might yea the almightie power it selfe and to be of nothing going before neither made created nor begotten but to be a thing before all things giuing beginning vnto euerie thing thy selfe being without beginning and without ending O Thou sonne of God which art the word of the father and second person in Trinitie I doo likewise beleeue confesse and acknowledge thee to be of the father without beginning before all worlds neither made nor created but begotten and art equall with the father in power might glorie maiestie and deitie and to be as thy father is the fountaine and well-spring of all wisedome grace and mercie O Thou God the holie Ghost and third person in Trinitie which art with the father and the sonne the giuer of all comfort vertue and goodnesse I doo also
beleeue confesse and acknowledge thee to be of the father and of the sonne neither made nor created nor begotten but from God the father and from God the sonne proceeding equall with the father and the sonne without beginning of time and without end in like power might glorie maiestie and deitie as is the father and the sonne all three in one and one in three one verie GOD euerlasting not three Gods euerlasting of one essence or being euer perdurable or during without measure not changeable almightie one substance and in one nature simple I Doo beleeue confesse and acknowledge ech one of your persons to be equall to the other in all maner of perfection and ech one person to be omnipotent or almightie and to be one beginning of all things and that togither you made created all creatures visibles inuisibles spirituals and corporals and that by almightie vertue from the beginning of time you three togither did create and that of nothing the creature angelike and the worldlie nature and then you made man common to the first two natures for man is of bodie corporall and of soule spirituall ALso I doo beleeue confesse and acknowledge that thou the father art one other and thou the sonne art one other and thou the holie Ghost art one other For thou ô father maiest not be the sonne nor the holie Ghost nor thou ô sonne maiest not be the father nor the holie Ghost nor thou ô holie Ghost maiest not be the father nor the sonne but to you three persons is one being and one nature common the which is the beginning of all things and out of this beginning there is no beginning ANd I beleeue confesse and acknowledge that thou ô father art no greater nor of greater power than is the sonne nor than is the holie Ghost For the vnitie of your diuine being is equall or alike togither for such as thou art ô father such art thou ô sonne and such art thou ô holie Ghost And thus thou holie and blessed Trinitie art one God the first beginning without beginning fountaine of all mercie grace goodnesse and vertue which by thy knowledge dooest knowe all things present and to be hereafter ANd further I doo confesse acknowledge and stedfastlie beleeue that thou ô sonne of God art without beginning coëternall with GOD the father and with God the holie Ghost And by the whole consent of you three in one and one in three and by the ouershadowing of the holie Ghost thou ô holie and most blessed sonne of God didst enter into the wombe of the most vnspotted amongst women the blessed virgine Marie in whom was no blemish of sinne after the salutation of the angell Gabriel when she had by the working of the holie Ghost answered these words of meeknesse Behold and see I am the handmaid of the Lord be it vnto me according to thy word THus thou blessed sonne of God diddest not forsake or leaue thy Godhead but didst take flesh or manhead of the blessed virgine vnto thy Godhead being still perfect God with the father in Godhead and perfect man also In which manhead thou wert lesse than the father but yet equall with the father touching thy deitie or Godhead as after thy most blessed natiuitie thou didst prooue in thy humanitie to bee perfect God FOR without anie teacher or schoolemaister thou hadst all perfect knowledge of sciences learning Thou changedst water into wine Thou gauest sight to the man borne blind Thou openlie saidst to the Iewes and Pharisies I which speake to you am the beginning Thou feddest manie thousands of people with a few loaues of bread and with a few fishes The wind and sea obeied at thy commandement Thou raisedst Lazarus from death vnto life which was foure daies dead and stinking in his graue In this ô God and in manie more excellent miracles thou didst shew thy selfe to be perfect God ANd also thou didst shew thy selfe to be perfect man for thou didst eate drinke and sleepe and so tookest increase of nature as man dooth Thou weptst thou fastedst thou sufferedst all the miseries of man sin onelie excepted IT also well pleased thee to fulfill to performe and to accomplish all the words and saiengs of the holie patriarchs and prophets which they had vttered and spoken of thee long time before thou tookest our humane nature vpon thee And so to fulfill the prophesies thou sufferedst that thine humane nature should be betraied and taken by the kissing of thine vnkind disciple Iudas THou also suffredst cruell persecutions of the Iewes after maine punishments they blasphemed thee and cried vpon Pilate to haue thee crucified and so vnder Ponce Pilate thou didst suffer to be crucified and vpon the crosse didst die touching thy humanitie and after wast thou taken downe buried and by the power and might of thy deitie descendedst into hell according to the scripture ANd I beleeue notwithstanding that thy sepulchre was made fast and sealed also watched and kept by certeine soldiers therevnto appointed that the third daie by thy Godhead or diuine power thou didst arise in thy humanitie And fortie daies after thou didst ascend into heauen in the sight of men of Galile and in faith vnto vs that be where thou doost remaine perfect GOD and perfect man sitting on the right hand of the father from whence thou shalt come and iudge both the liuing and the dead By the dead I vnderstand the bodie which is mortall and by the liuing I vnderstand the soule which is spirituall and immortall ANd also I acknowledge confesse and stedfastlie beleeue that I shall among all thy reasonable creatures arise from death to life and with them shall stand and behold thy diuine maiestie face to face thou sitting in the throne of thine eternall iudgement And thine elect and those whom thou hast shewed mercie vpon shall be seuered from the wicked reprobates as lambes from woolues the saued sort vpon thy right hand and the other vpon thy left where we shall all receiue our last and finall iudgement The which iudgment ô Lord I doo most humblie beseech thee may be vnto me not after my sinnes and wickednesse but according vnto thy great and vnspeakable mercies Grant this ô thou most holie and blessed father of heauen which art with the sonne and with the holie Ghost the worlds creator and haue mercie vpon me haue mercie vpon me Grant this ô thou most holie and blessed Iesu the onelie sonne of God the worlds Sauiour and redeemer and haue mercie vpon me haue mercie vpon me Grant this ô thou most blessed

WHo hearkens to the voice of God and dooth his law fulfill Shall blessed be in towne and field with mercie and good will His fruit likewise shall blessed be that from his lo●●es shall spring His corne and cattell shall increase with plentie of all thing His oxen and his flocks of sheepe shall blessed be with store His going out and comming in shall blest be euermore His enimies that shall arise shall fall before his face And flee for feare as dooth the beast the hunter hath in chace His houses that be made for store with great increase shall grow And euerie thing he takes in hand shall blessed be also Vou●hsafe good God to giue me grace so to direct my mind As by the same in time of need I may thy blessing find Amen A meditation when ye go to bed O Lord my God I wandred haue as one that runnes astray And haue in thought in word in deed in idlenesse and play Offended sore thy Maiestie in heaping sin to sin And yet thy mercie hath me sparde so gratious hast thou bin O Lord my faults I now confesse and sorie am therefore But not so much as saine I would ô Lord what wilt thou more It is thy grace must bring that spirit for which I humblie pray And that this night thou me defend as thou hast done this day And grant when these mine eies toong shall faile through natures might That then the powers of my poore soule may praise thee day and night Amen A meditation at your vprising O Lord this night who hast me kept from dangers all that bee And hast me giuen of rest and sleepe so much as pleaseth thee Where other of my brethren poore of better life than I Doo wander vp and downe the streets and harbourlesse doo lie And some with sicknesse are opprest some impotent and lame Thus doost thou deale with creatures thine to glorie of thy name O Lord in sort as I deserue thou hast not dealt with mee But hast me giuen wherewith to liue in better case to bee Most mightie God this day likewise protect me from all blame And giue me grace I thankfull be with praises for the same Amen Athanasius his Creed commonlie called Quicúnque vult By faith we please the Lord By faith we are set free By faith we worke the will of God Faith will not idle bee What man is he will saued be must first the true faith haue Which faith vnlesse he hold and keepe hys soule God will not saue And this is now the perfect faith to worship God in three The Father Son holie Ghost all three in Vnitie The persons neither to confound nor substance to diuide For he that so shall thinke of them from perfect faith is wide For of the Father of the Sonne and of the holie Ghost Be persons three in seuerall and all in might be most The Father Sonne and holie Ghost in Godhead equall bee In glorie like and so in might and so in Maiestie Such as the heauenlie Father is such is the Sonne also Such is likewise the holie Ghost all three one God no mo The Father was vncreated so was the Sonne likewise The holie Ghost vncreated still one for to deuise The Father without number is none may him comprehend The Sonne likewise and holie Ghost all three one without end The Father Sonne and holie Ghost eternall doo endure And yet not three eternals be but one eternall sure Not three that number doo exceed nor three vnmade certaine But three in one and one in three for euer doo remaine The Father Sonne and holie Ghost omnipotent be all And yet not three omnipotents but one beleeue we shall The Father God the Sonne is God the holie Ghost also And yet three Gods we shall not say of Gods but one no mo The Father Lord the Sonne is Lord and holie Ghost is Lord Yet not three Lords but one in three and three in one accord For like as we compelled be by Christian veritie Ech person of them to confesse both God and Lord to bee So are we by the same forbid in anie wise to saie Three Gods to be or yet three Lords but three in one alwaie The Father is not created begot nor made of none The Sonne ne made nor created begot of him alone The holie Ghost is from them both ne made create nor got But from the father and the sonne proceeding had we wot So then there is of fathers one not fathers three we see One sonne not three and so likewise one holie Ghost to bee And in this holie Trinitie is none more great than other But that the whole three persons be coequall altogither So that in all as foresaid is the Vnitie in three And Trinitie in Vnitie ought worshipped to bee Yet furthermore it needefull is vnto saluation That we beleeue of lesus Christ the incarnation The right faith is that we beleeue and with one mouth foorth-show That Iesus Christ the sonne of God is God and man also God of his Father substance is begot ere world was wrought And man by flesh and bloud he tooke of hir who foorth him brought Both perfect God and perfect Man is he without diuiding And of a reasonable soule and humane flesh abiding He to the Father equall is touching his Deitie But he is lesse than Father is by his humanitie Who though he be both God and man yet one is he not twaine That is to saie one Iesus Christ for euer to remaine One not by turning Godhead his into the flesh we see But taking manhood into God by power of Deitie One yet not by confusion of this his substance sure But by Vnitie of person which euer shall endure For as the reasonable soule and flesh one man dooth make So God and man is but one Christ which suffered for our sake And then descended into hell the third day rose againe From death to life thus hath he done mankind to rid from paine And after this ascended he ● vnto the heauens on hie And on his Fathers right hand sits one God etern●llie From thence he shall come down againe a rightfull iudge to bee To iudge the liuing and the dead as he their woorks shall see At whose descending all shall rise in twinkling of an eie And with this flesh shall him behold in throne of Maiestie Then they that haue done righteouslie shall heauen haue for their hire And they th●t haue done wickedlie haue euerlasting fire This is the true and perfect faith all Christians ought to haue Which faith vnlesse we doo beleeue our soules God will not saue Praise we these persons three in one and likewise one in three As from the first hath bin now is and euermore shall bee Amen A meditation to be said of women with child In time of trouble call on me and I will then deliuer thee THe time drawes nie of bitter painefull throwes How long I shall the same endure God knowes
