From the power of the Dog From the Lyons mouth and the horns of the Unicorns Out of the mire that we sink not From the deep and let not the pit shut her mouth upon us And deliver us not only from him but from his malice also From whatsoever poyson he hath breathed on the Creatures From the enmity of the World Take us not from the world but deliver us from the evil of it From whatsoever is evil in our flesh Deliver us from our selves as we are evil Deliver us also as from the evil of sin so from the evil of punishment From the evils and miseries of this life Especially of the life to come O Lord we are oppressed undertake for us Lord carest thou not that we perish We are brought into bondage by sin Captives to Satan and lyable to thy wrath We are not able to match with our enemies by our own strength Assist us thou and deliver us Deliver us by thy Son and we shall be free He overcame the Devil and the World He overcame them in himself Let him overcome them also in us He overcame the Devil in himself by breaking his head dis-arming him and diminishing his power Let him overcome him in us by giving us the Armour of the Spirit and increasing our strength and grace Deliver us from the evil of sin that it have no dominion over us à parte ante Deliver us from the evil of sin when it hath prevailed over us à parte post And that presently and speedily if that it seem good to thee But if not so soon as we desire yet let thy deliverance come certainly Lest the pit shut her mouth upon us Deliver us from evil especially from that evil that carries with it a shew of good When the Enemy pretends to condemn that which is evil and to approve that which is good From the Devil at Noon-day From Satan transforming himself into an Angel of light From pleasing Errors From sins declining and bending to the right hand savouring of politique wisdom Deliver us O Lords From rebellious hearts From polluted lips Throats like open Sepulchers Tongues talking vanity From evil and lustful eyes From uncircumcised ears Deaf like the Adder From hands slow to good From feet swift to evil From a forehead of brass and a neck of Iron From these and all other evils Deliver us O Lord. Lord be thou our help for vain is the help of man Deliver us so that we may be freed not only freed but free So free from sin that we may be servants to righteousness and so long servants to righteousness that at length we may be adopted into Children heirs and co-heirs with Christ. Thine is the Kingdom The Kingdom is the Lords saith David Two thing are considerable in this Conclusion 1. The Confirmation of our Faith we believe that we are heard of GOD who is able and willing to give what we desire 2. The End whereto we ought to refer whatsoever we desire in our prayers The Praise and Glory of GOD. Thou art a King and wilt hear thy Subjects Thou hast right and authority to bear rule and free command over thy creatures the works of thy hands By thee Kings rule and unto thee must they surrender their Crowns All Potentates are but subordinate to thee thy Vicegerents For though God was pleased to stile Nebuchadnezzar King of Kings as having many petty Kings under him yet is he himself and he only the King of Kings For he ruleth over all as well Kings as others The Kingdoms of the world are become the Kingdoms of the Lord. Thou art the great King as thou speakest thy self Thou removest and sertest up Kings And thy Kingdom is not temporary or of short continuance as other Kingdoms are but it is an everlasting Kingdom Thy Throne endureth for ever The Lord is King for ever aud ever Thou art the King eternal Thou hast power and strength to manage this Kingdom Thou art mightier than our adversaries Who is able to resist thy power This power of thine hath been felt in all ages Who can do like thee or what God is like thee Thou rulest by thy power for ever And this power is proper only to thee Thou hast spoken it and David hath heard it more than once that power belongeth to God And that no small power neither Great is our Lord and of great power Saint Paul calls it the exceeding greatness of his power His mighty power Moses in his Song calls it glorious power So Saint Paul Therefore thou and thou only canst give us what we ask Great is the glory of the Lord. Glory and honour is in his presence He hath set his glory above the Earth and Heavens also He is rich in glory He is the only King of glory And therefore thou expectest of us that we should give glory to thee And O Lord our intent is to glorifie thee We ask these things as meaning and intending to use them to thy glory and say with the Angels and Quire of Heaven Glory be to God in the highest And with all the Creatures in Heaven and Earth and under the Earth and such as are in the Sea Blessing honour and glory and power be to him that sitteth on the Throne And this Kingdom Power and Glory endureth not for a season only but for ever there shall be no end of it Thy Kingdom is everlasting saith David Thy Power everlastiug say and pray the Angels Thy glory is ever also Let us therefore say with those Heavenly people Allelujah Salvation and Glory and Honour and Power unto the Lord our God Behold O Father we have according to thy Sons directions and form presumed to crave those things which we want We have made our necessities known to thee We stedfastly believe that thou art able to supply our wants We desire of thee that thou wouldst grant us those things which we have craved of thee We look up to thee we sigh and groan and pray thee to confirm our votes and wishes with thy Seal Amen So be it Grant us our Petitions for his sake that sent us to thee and that is a true and faithful witness and in whom all thy Promises are Yea and Amen Honour him in us who deserve of our selves without him no good but much evil at thy hands And say to our Petitions Amen So be it O Almighty LORD and our Heavenly Father whose fatherly power and goodness is seen in the Creation Preservation and Governing of all things and upon whom as a Father we wait and depend for all that is good who art in all places by thy presence but especially in Heaven by thy Excellency

us to pray that we continue and increase in it 4. It puts us in mind of our vow in Baptism to believe in the Trinity Lord I believe Help thou my unbelief In God the Father Wherein I consider First His personal Relation to his natural Son and gracious affection to us in him That in Christ we are all his Sons by grace and adoption As many as received him to them he gave power to become the Sons of God The Spirit beareth witness with out spirit that we are the Sons of God No more a Servant but a Son Having predestinated us unto the adoption of Children by Jesus Christ. Almighty Secondly His Saving Power That as he is a Father willing to do us good so he is Omnipatent and able to do us good Even to your old age I am he c. I will bear I will carry and deliver you I am the Lord and none else He is Lord over all Upholding all things Almighty Able to subdue all things unto himself Maker of Heaven and Earth Thirdly His Providence in disposing preserving and governing all things 1. By the Word of the Lord were the Heavens made He laid the Foundations of the Earth Thou Lord which hast made Heaven and Earth the Sea and all that in them is I form the Light and create the Darkness He layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters The Spirit of the Lord hath made me and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life 2. He provideth for the Raven his food c. Thou Lord shalt save both Man and Beast They shall be satisfied with the plenteousness c. Over Sparrows He careth for us In him we live move and have our being 3. He ordereth the world according to equity He judgeth the folk righteously and governeth the Nations upon the earth Thy providence O Father governeth all things He ordereth all things sweetly In Jesus A Saviour He shall save his people from their sins He that beleeveth not in him is condemned Neither is there Salvation in any other By the obedience of one shall many be made righteous Christ. Annointed With the Oyl of gladness above his fellows The Lord hath annointed me His onely Son Of God the Father The only begotten of the Father His only begotten Son Our Lord. In right of 1 Creation 2 Redemption 1. By whom he made the World By him were all things created 2. In whom we have redemption Redeemed with his precious Blood Bought with a price Conceived by the Holy Ghost Without the help of Man to help the uncleanness of our conception She was found with Child of the Holy Ghost The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee and the power of the most High shall overshadow thee Angelo nunciante Spiritu adveniente mox verbum in utero mox intraverbum Caro. Upon the Annuntiation or message of an Angel and the Overshadowing of the Holy Ghost the word presently entred into the VVomb and with the word the flesh Born of the Virgin Mary Made the Sonne of Man that we might be the Sonnes of God To purge the uncleanness of our birth He did not abhor the Virgins womb A Virgin shall conceive She shall bring forth a Son And she brought forth her first born Son c. The word was made flesh And when the fulness of time was come God sent forth his Son made of a woman c. S. Bernard saith That God in the assumption of our nature made three mixtures so wonderfull without comparison that never the like were or should be to the end of the world God and Man a Mother and a Virgin Faith and Mans heart Suffered under Pontius Pilate Those things which we should have suffered That we might not suffer them He powred out his soul unto death c. He bare our sins in his own body on the tree He once suffered for sins Was Crucified To take away the Curse of the Law Christ hath redeemed us from the Curse of the Law being made a Curse for us as it is written Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree He humbled himself and became obedient to death even the death of the Cross. Dead To take away the sharpness and bondage of death To satisfie Gods justice for us The wages of sin is death That he by the grace of God should taste death for every one That through death he might destroy him that had the power of death that is the Devil And deliver them who through the fear of death were all their life time subject to bondage O Death where is thy sting Buried To take away the corruption of the grave that we might be assured of his death All agree that he was buried in a Sepulcher They took him from a Tree and laid him in a Sepulcher Descended into Hell Whither we ought to have gone that we might not go thither at all Thou wilt not leave my Soul in Hell Non immerito creditur It is not without cause that we believe saith Saint Augustine upon this Article And Christ according to his Soul was in Hell the Scripture is plain for it being foretold by the Prophet David and evidently expounded by the Apostles Application of that Text Thou wilt not leave my Soul in Hell And he concludeth peremptorily with this Question Quis ergo nisi infidelis negaverit fuisse apud inferos Christum Who therefore but an Infidel will deny that Christ was in Hell The third day he rose again from the dead That he might raise with him our nature being the first fruits of them which sleep He is risen He is not here Christ being raised from the dead c. And was raised again for our justification By the Trinity 1. By the Father Acts 2. 24. 3. 15. 4. 10. 5. 30. 10. 40. Ephes. ● 20. 1 Pet. 1. 21. 2. By the Son Joh. 10. 17 18. Rom. 14. 3. By the Spirit Rom. 8. 11. 1 Pet. 3. 18. He ascended into Heaven To prepare us a place whereto we had no right To assure us that our flesh is gone before To send us the Holy Spirit He was received up into Heaven He was parted from them and carried up to Heaven We have a High Priest that is Passed into the Heavens He that descended is the same which ascended far above all Heavens I go to prepare a place for you Having boldness to enter into the Holiest by the blood of Iesus And hath raised us up together and made us sit in Heavenly places together I will pray the Father and he shall give you another

from the servitude of sin The First Commandement Thou shalt have no other Gods before me HAving as it were setled in our hearts his Authority and Power to prescribe and make Laws unto us his just precept is that We have no other Gods before him 1. Neither by abating any reverence due to him But to worship him with all our heart By acknowledging him to be the only true God By honouring serving and praising him above all things By trusting and relying wholly upon him By expecting all good from him By humbling our selves before him and patiently bearing whatsoever he shall please to lay upon us and subjecting our wills wholly to his 2 Not by attributing any honour to other Gods or Idols or putting any confidence in Saints or Angels Earthly Pleasures Riches Honour or the like lest we offend thereby As Rachel did by asking Children of Iacob As the King of Syria by desiring Ioram to heal Naamans leprosie As Asa by too much trusting to his Physicians As the Fool in the Gospel trusting to his riches Neither secretly in thy heart Nor in the view of God and the World openly Not but that God is every where and seeth into the secret corners of our hearts and is Omniscient but to set a note or brand of impudence upon us for our indignity to him if we shall make open profession of our Idolatry to any false God or Idol in worshipping it or of our excessive love or doting upon any Creature by putting confidence in it neglecting our dependance on God who is only able by his Omnipotency to releive us This Commandement enjoyneth the inward worship of God The Second Commandement Thou shalt not make to thy self any graven Image AS in the first Commandement God requireth that we worship him only inwardly so in this he forbiddeth all undue and indirect outward worshipping of him and enjoyneth us not to make any resemblance to worship him by because he is a Spirit and is only to be worshipped in Spirit and Truth It consisteth of two parts 1. A prohibition of making any Image representing the Divine Godhead 2. Of exhibiting any worship to any Image And that 1. Because he is incomprehensible cannot be represented in any form visible 2. Because he is able to punish the contemners of his Name And to bless his true Worshippers 1. Therefore we are not to grave or make any Image or resemblance of him For when he gave the Law saith Moses he appeared in no manner of similitude To whom then will ye liken God or to what likeness will ye compare him 2. Neither are we to make the likeness of any thing to worship it For as we ought not to make any resemblance of him so neither when we make the similitude of any thing else the true use of making Pictures and the like being lawful not to worship or attribute any honour to it Not that all Images are hereby forbidden 1. For some in the Old Testament were Typical The Brazen Serpent being the Type of Christ. The two Cherubins on the Ark represented the Majesty of God attended by his Angels c. 2. Some are for Ornament many in the fabrique of the Temple and in the holy Vessels of it 3. Some Historical of stories either out of the Scriptures or of other Writers 4. Some for instruction in the nature of Beasts Cities and Countries Saint Paul saith that the Gentiles changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an Image like to corruptible man and to birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things wherefore God gave them up to uncleanness c. 1. Either by bowing the body uncovering the head or bending the knee to them 2. Or by setting the same in any eminent place to worship them bestowing extraordinary cost on them making Pilgrimages to them or dedicating Altars Lamps or the like to them By this Commination he sheweth his power to punish Offenders and that he is able and all-sufficient to supply our wants likewise Like the jealous Husband who will have no partner in his love And suffereth no Corrival Competitor or Sharer in his Service My Son give me thy heart thy whole heart Punishing them that run after false Gods in many descents even as long as they shall continue in their idolatrous courses Though the Son shall not bear the iniquity of the Father yet this is so odious to him that he will take vengeance of the Idolatrous Generation As of the Iews in general Solomon and others 1. To shew how odious Idolatry is to him 2. To force men who naturally have a love and care to their posterity by this Commination to abstain from it left their issue be plagued Confounded be all they that worship carved Images and that delight in vain Gods The mercy of the LORD is over all his Works is over his Iustice. For whereas he punisheth Idolaters in his Iustice but to three or four generations He is merciful to thousands of those that worship him aright throughout all generations His reward is alwayes greater than his punishment Of his own nature more bent to shew mercy than to execute severity It is his proper work and suitable to his nature to have mercy but he is hardly drawn to punish as being a work altogether unsuitable to his disposition With their whole heart without hypocrisie and do not impart that worship to others which is due to him In obedience walking in his wayes All his Commandements but chiefly this concerning his worship The Third Commandement Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his Name in vain The scope of which is to shew what reverence is due to God in our Conversation especially in the use or abuse of an Oath THe Name of the Lord which in it self is Holy True and Iust. And therefore we ought not to prophane it or take it in our mouths lightly or upon every small occasion Herein we offend When we blaspheme God either openly or in our hearts When we use his holy Word to any prophane scurrilous or impure end When we commit Perjury When we murmure against him When we leave his Providence and consult with Witches or the like When we swear upon trivial and light causes When we curse or use unlawful Imprecations When we perform not that which we faithfully promise When we in any action of our own detract from Gods glory and attribute and arrogate too much to our selves An Oath is to be ministred when the glory of God is questioned for some weighty matter urgeth it upon the Magistrates command And to be taken by those who are of years of discretion and in their right senses The Lord and Iudge of Heaven and Earth who seeth and observeth all our actions is so far from conniving at this
