O Lord our God, who in thy wisedome and mercy hast appointed thy holie worde as the wholesome nourishment of our soules, that by reading, hearing, and musing thereon, we might growe vppe vnto saluati­on: Wee beseeche thee to pardon all our sinnes, for Iesus Christe his sake, take away the corrupti­on of our nature, purge and sanc­tify our harts, that we may read thy word at all times with reue­rent mindes, so as we may daily [Page] be borne againe, confyrmed in faith, reformed in our manners, furthered in knowledge and obedience, strengthened against all temptations, furnished with pa­tience against all tryals, and fy­nally be made fruitfull in al good workes, resembling thy Image, and growing vppe into full holi­nes & righteousnes in thy sight, til we are perfited in the hea­uens with Christ Iesus our Lord. A­men.

Let vs harken with reuerence to the holie word of the Lord our God written in such or such a Cha­piter and Booke. &c.

O Lorde our moste gracious, good, and mercifull Father, we thy seruants, & the work manshyp of thy handes, fall downe before thy high maiestie, humblye acknowledging our manifolde and heynous sinnes, whereby wee haue broken thy holie Lawes, and iustly deserued euen eternall death & con­demnation at thy handes. VVe doo heere most instantly vpon the knees of our harts, sue vnto thy fatherlye clemencie, for pardon and forgiue­nes of all our sinnes whatsoeuer, & for the remoouing & keeping backe of all thy iudgements frō vs, which we by our sins haue iustlie deserued and accept of vs and our prayers, wherewith we present thy maiestie, in the name and mediation of thy [Page] sonne Christe Iesus, preparing our harts with reuerence & faith to call vpon thee. And whereas wee were borne in sinne and iniquitie, where­by we are altogether corrupt, & are more rightlie intituled to death and condemnation then to life, we pray thee (most merciful father) to renue vs by thy holie spirite, and to roote out of vs all those euil rootes of our concupiscence, clensing vs from all that which sauoureth of our selues, and of vncleanenes. Purge our euyl thoughtes, our prophane imagina­tions, and carnall lustes. Yea Lorde, wee humblye pray thee, scoure our harts from all hypocrisie, from all contempt of thee and of thy holye word, from all ignoraunce of thee, false worship, incredulity & distrust of thy fatherlie prouidence, & from murmuring at thy hand in afflictiō. Let vs not prophane thy most ho­ly name, eyther in worde, deede, or thought, nor dishallow thy Sabba­othes, but cleaue to al thy ordināces

Throwe out of vs (O Lorde) all selfe-loue, contempt against others, pride, wrath, impaciencie, vncharitablenes, all vnnaturall affections, vn­mercifulnes, desire of reuenge, ha­tred and enuie, all fornications, vn­orderly and wanton lustes, intem­perancie and vnchaste behauiour, al worldlie mindednes, couetousnes, deceite and iniurie, all slaunderous wordes and surmises against our brethren. All these thinges wee pray thee to remooue out of vs, and to sanctifie our harts, to the obedi­ence of all thy holie commaunde­ments, that we may dailie be refor­med to thy Image, in true holines and righteousnes, expressing dueties to thee & our brethren, with a care­full conscience. Take vppe our thoughtes and affections (O lord) that they may affect and long after thee day and night, and that the counsels of our harts may muse on thee and thy holie wyll: and dwell thou wholie in our soules and bo­dies, [Page] directing our wyls, our iudgments and vnderstanding, our speeches and all our actions, that in our whole manne wee may serue thee. Good Lord plant in vs, wee praye thee, the true loue and feare of thy name, increase the knowledg of thy word in vs, with faith, zeale, and iudgment, that we may reuerence & obey it in our soules, studying to shewe the fruite therof in our liues. VVorke and increase a true & liue­lie faith in vs, whereby wee may cleaue to thee, and thine euerlasting promises in Christ Iesus, and may depend vpon thy prouidence in all estates of thys mortall lyfe, without murmuring or repyning at thy hand, in sicknes, pouerty, imprison­ment, persecution, or in any afflicti­on eyther of bodie or minde, pati­entlie bearing all crosses, knowing that thereby thou correctest our sinnes, as a father, seeking our amēdment. On the otherside, let vs not be remisse, carelesse and forgetful in [Page] our prosperitye, but may in wealth & woe acknowledge thy hand with thankfulnes and reuerence, reioy­cing that howsoeuer thou dealest with vs in outward things, yet thou art so our father in Christe, that thou canst not deny vs anie thing, that may bee to the benefite of our soules, or to our safetie in the life to come, sith that we haue interest euen vnto thy self in Christ our sauiour. And sith thou hast trusted vs wyth thine owne name and glorie, which in thy gospell shineth vnto vs. O giue vs grace to seeke the enlarging of thy kingdome, by furthering thy Gospell in the ministrie thereof, to our power, being ielious ouer thy name, that our speeches, thoughtes, or dooings, may not sauour of con­tempt against thee, nor suffer thee to be dishonoured of others, if wee may anie way hinder it: neyther let our life be so loose, as occasion should be taken there from by men to blaspheme thy name. But Lorde [Page] guyde vs so by thy grace, that our godlie and sober life amongste men, may be a comelines, a glorie, and an honour vnto thee, to bring credite to our professyon.

(For alas Lord) heerein we haue beene traitors vnto thee, to betray thy glorie into the reprochefull tongues of godlesse men for want of watchfulnes and guidaunce in our wayes. Direct vs therefore O Lorde, in thy whole worshyppe, in spirite and trueth, and stirre vs vp, that we may approue our fayth by carefull and continuall hearing, reading, and musing of thy worde, by exercising prayer, both publique­lie with the assemblie of people, and priuatelie by our selues and with our families, that we may acknow­ledge thee to be our God, in seeking vnto thee for all thinges, and retur­ning thankes vnto thee, as from whom commeth euery good thing.

Gyue vs fayth and repentaunce in the vse of thy Sacramentes, [Page] that we rightlie frequenting all ho­lie exercises of thy worshippe, may sanctifie thy Sabbaothes, and in­crease our faith, feare, and loue to­wardes thee. Furthermore we pray thee O LORD, teach vs to put on al affections of loue towards our brethren, being indued with meek­nes, humblenes of minde, patience, forbearing and forgiuing one ano­ther, when there are quarrels, euen as Christ hath forgiuen vs, so as we may liue in all christian manner a­mongst men, without warres, & contentions, in all courteous, true, and iust dealing, in our affayres and bu­sines, not vsing any vnlawfull artes or practises, for the increase of our commodities & pleasures, but faith fully labouring in our callings, may depende vpon thy promises, appro­uing our faith. Let the name and credite of our brethren & neighbors be precious vnto vs, that by no mutteringes, surmisings, reports, or light credence, wee impayre their good [Page] name, and when we meete with slā ­ders or reproches, giue vs grace to beare our selues lowly & hūble, seeking redresse without bitternes of spirit, knowing howe Christ in the like cases hath suffered. And be­cause wee can not alwaies enioye peace and libertye, vnder the profes­sion of thy Gospell. O Lorde our God, wee pray thee let vs not onelie nowe in these dayes of our safetye, allowe and cleaue vnto thy trueth, whilest others doo accompanye vs in professyon, whilst Princes beare vs out, freendes doo countenaunce vs, whilst our wiues, children, landes and possessyon abide by vs, and all thinges smyle vpon vs: but O deere Father, if euer our sinnes should procure persecution for thy trueth, so as companions shoulde leaue vs, freendes fayle vs, the cruel lookes of Princes, and their bloodye handes should be turned vppon vs, when mercilesse imprisonment, the glitte­ring sword, the shaking speare, or [Page] fierie flame should with terror threaten death, when banishment & ex­ile shalbe for natiue soile, when our deere wiues and tender babes, with woeful cryes & wringing of hands, on the one side shall mooue the bowels of pittie, the raging fire or other fearefull tortures of death on the o­therside, shall mooue terror & dys­couragement, Oh, euen then Lord, we poore wretches and wormes vn­able of our selues to abide the heere­saie of death, doo beseeche thee to fortifie our faith, giuing vs patience, confidence and hope vnto the ende, that as thou haste giuen vs a desire to holde out, which is a pledge of our continuaunce, so thou maist stil vphold vs with the tast of the ioyes to come, that in Christ we may a­bide vnto the ende, so as nothing may seperate vs from the loue of God which is in Christe Iesus our Lord.

O Lorde therefore giue vs grace in our prosperitie, to mortifie our [Page] affections bothe from sinne and the world, that it make vs not vnfitt for the yoke, and vnrulie. Thou knowest Lord the desire of our soules, O performe these thinges vnto vs for Iesus Christ his sake. VVe further pray thee (O Lorde) to be president and gouernour of vs and our fami­lies, directing vs sincerelie in all thy wayes, that we giue not euill exam­ple either in worde or deede, not ra­ging in our affections, ruling by them; but moderate thou our affec­tions and speeches in all our dome­sticall gouernment, that wee may rule ouer them in thy name, beeing neyther too seuere nor too remisse, that so man and wife, with theyr families, may liue togeather religi­ously, soberlie, and peaceably, wyth freer vse of prayer, and other holy exercises.

O LORDE, blesse our Ser­uauntes & chyldren wyth obedient and duetifull hearts to thy maiestie, and vnto vs for thee, beeing with­out [Page] murmuring, vnfaithfulnes, re­plying or stubborne answeres, but peaceable, lowlie, and tractable, Ban­nish from them all swearing, lying, pryde, cursed speaking, slaundering, ryot, and all intemperancie. And though by our sinnes thou migh­test take aduauntage to throwe out our children to thy curse, and to with holde thy grace frō them, yet pardon thou our sinnes for thy mercies sake, and continue thy graces to vs, and to our posterity after vs, to many generations. O Lorde, be­cause also nothing can prosper without thy blessinge (though wee care and toyle) blesse thou therefore and prosper all the affayres of our lawfull callinges, this day and euer heereafter, that we may see daylie a comfortable issue of our labours, for we resigne vp all our affayres, and the successe thereof vnto thee, la­bouring in them vnder thy proui­dence. And now Lorde, we praye thee for our neighbours rounde a­bout [Page] vs, and for the congregation, where we enioy the felowshippe of this life, with other ritch graces of thine, O Lord blesse them all, and eache familie and person, both olde and young, husbands and wyues, parents and chyldren, masters and seruauntes, gouernors and people, that eache of these in their callinges being furnished with meete graces from thee, may discharge a good conscience therin in thy feare. Blesse O LORDE the Magistrates of our towne, endue them with wisedom, courage, faithfulnes, & the feare of thy name, and all graces necessarie, that they executing iudgment and iustice, thy glorie may bee aduaun­ced, the people may of conscience obey, sinne may bee supplanted, and godlines with trueth may happilye flourish among vs. Blesse (O lord) wee pray thee, our ministers of thy word, that they may abound with al necessary graces, fitte for that waighty calling: let vs imbrace them in [Page] our hartes, as messengers sent by thee for our saluation. Gyue vnto them strength, faithfulnes, grauitie, wisedome, iudgment, patience, and courage in dooing thy wyll, that they may wade comfortablie, and with a good conscience, through all daungers: make their labours fruit­full, in the hearts of the people, con­uert or confounde all that rise vp a­gainst wholesome doctrine, reforme the disobedient, keepe them in thy trueth that are called, increasinge their faith and obedience, and ga­ther home daielie some soules into thy folde, that the people being tur­ned vnto thee, thou maiest haue praise. Preserue O Lorde, this our Towne from inward perrills of the soule, and outward of the body, bee thou our watchman, and tower of defence frō al enimies, that our sins betray not our peace: kepe vs by sea & by land in blessed safety, & let vs not forget to praise thee for it: cōti­nue thine holy ordinance of teach­ing [Page] ô Lord among vs euermore, let vs neuer want that blessed & soue­raine meanes of our saluation, and giue vs grace hartily, reuerently, & faithfully to regarde thy seruants & thy heauēly doctrin brought by thē so as both they & we may in our ly­ues expres the fruit of thy word, fee­ling effectually the power therof cō uerted into our soules, to the tho­row reforming of the whole mā that we may stand assured of thy mercy & pardon of our sins through faith, may be multiplied with al spiritual graces, directed, kept & cōtinued to the ende in al happy waies, so as our own soules may reape perfit cōfort, others may be edified, & turned vn­to thee, thy self maist receiue glory, honor & eternal praise in Christ Ie­sus: and now lord, we most earnestly intreate thee for our whole lande, & principallye, for our moste gracious Queene Elizabeth, ô lord giue her a long, a prosperous, a godly, & a happy raign ouer vs, cōfounding all her enemies, [Page] safegarding her royall person, enrit­ching her soule with all heauenlye graces vnto saluation, that she go­uerning happilie on earth, may raigne euerlastingly in heauen with thee. Blesse her right honourable Counsellers, and all inferiour Magi­strates, directing their counsels, con­sultations and gouernments, to the aduauncing of thy glory, and the good of thy Church. Blesse all the Ministers of thy holie worde, that they may sincerely discharg a good conscience in their places, to the e­difying of thy church through loue. Yea we pray thee for all our whole land, and people of all degrees, par­don their sinnes, leade them in thy trueth, that they may in peace and godlines serue thee all their lyfe. Finallie, Lord we pray thee for all nations, kindreds, and tongues, where thy name is professed, for all christian Magistrates and Rulers, that thou wylt blesse and defende them, and keepe them in thy trueth [Page] from all their ennimies, cause the light of thy holie Gospell to shyne to all nations, that they being tur­ned to thee, thou mayst haue praise, comfort the comfortles, helpe the helples, bee a father to the fatherles, and a husbande to the wyddowes, ende the miserie of the afflicted, confound al enimies of thy church, and giue to thy people euerlastyng peace in Christ Iesus. These graces with all other els necessarie for vs, and thy whole Church, we humbly craue at thy maiesties hand, in such manner as hee hath taught vs, saying: Our Father which art in Heauen. &c.

WE render most humble and hartie thankes in Iesus Christ vnto thy diuine maiestie, ô lord our God, for thy great mercies and auncient louing kind­nes towards vs & thy whole church alwayes expressed, namely lord for thy inestimable & euerlasting loue, whereby thou hast chosen vs freelie in Christ Iesus vnto saluation, be­fore the foundations of the worlde w [...]e layde, as also for thy goodnes whereby thou hast created vs to the likenes of thine owne Image, and whereas wee and the whole race of [Page] mankind, through sinne and trans­gression were fallen from thee, into a desperate and hellish condition of condemnation, thou hast againe redeemed vs by the precious death and bloodshedding of thy Sonne, freed vs from bondage, pardoned all our sinnes, and restored vs into fa­uour, euen with thy selfe, inuested vs into all thy ritches, and heauenly treasures, hast called vs by the mini­strie of thy worde into a newe life, iustified vs freelie through fayth, sanctifyed vs by thy grace and ho­lie spirit, and so made vs of vile and myserable cayteifes and bondmen of Satan, chayned vnto euerlasting darknes and iudgment, the freemen of Christ Iesus, sette at liberty vnto euerlasting life, & hast giuen vs the earnest of our saluation & thy spi­rite, whereby thou hast in some measure furnished vs with fayth, knowledge and zeale, working in vs vnto repentaunce and a nevve life.

O Lord, thou mightest haue left vs in darknes, and in the shadowe of death, in error & ignorance with o­ther natiōs that know the not, thou myghtest haue deteyned thy grace from vs, & giuen vs vp to our own hartes lust, into a reprobate mynde, with the vngodly of the world, that shall neuer taste of thy goodnes, that we might fill vppe the cuppe of thy wrath, thou mightest haue broken in vppon vs with thy plagues and punishmentes, as thou hast doone vppon some who haue not exeeded the measure of our iniquities, and mightest haue executed fearefull iudgments against vs, in the midest of the dayes of our ignoraunce and contempt against thee, when wee e­uer without remorse of conscience, not knowing like poore wretches our desperate estate, but yet Lorde blessed be thy name, who hath spa­red vs hetherto, and touched our hartes vnto some measure of repen­taunce, hast opened our eyes to see [Page] thy trueth, hast freed vs from dark­nes and death, caused vs to taste of thy word, made sinne lothsome vn­to vs, ioyed our hearts with the ty­dinges of our saluation, renued our harts, giuen vs hope of a better life, and framed our hearts to some loue of thy children, and to some mea­sure of holines in thy sight.

O Lord, what mooued thee to al this but thine owne free mercie? for which we rēder all praise vnto thee, graunt vs grace to walke worthy of these thy mercies, with thankfull harts all our life. VVee blesse thy name ô Lord our God, for thy fa­therlie care and diuine prouidence, whereby thou haste alwayes wat­ched ouer vs, and protected vs gra­ciously from our cradle, deliuering vs from manie plagues, punish­ments, and daungers, which our sins had iustly deserued to haue brought vpon vs, and heaping many vnde­serued benefites vpon vs, thou haste trusted vs with health, wealth, liber­ty, [Page] prosperity, freendship and peace, which all we haue abused, yet haste thou spared vs. Thou hast set vs in a calling amongst men, haste blessed our affayres, prospered the workes of our hands, nothing hath wanted vnto vs that might expresse thy loue, eyther appartayning to our soules or our bodies, the graces of thy spirite thou haste in some mea­sure shed vppon vs, the soueraigne meanes of our saluation, thy word, and Sacraments, thou hast ritchly offred vnto vs, hast giuen vs interest into al thy riches & treasures, yea, e­uen into thy self, so as we may with boldnes resort vnto thee in al necessities in the name of thy son. O lord this is a happy benefitt, that we may confer with thy maiestie by prayer, in all our distresses and affaires, and may powre out our cōplaints into thy bosome & be regarded, oh stirre vp our faith Lord, to put in vre thys comfortable exercise of our fayth, euen prayer in all pure manner.

VVe praise thy high maiesty O Lorde for all meanes of our salua­tion, for the comfortable ministry of thy seruauntes the Preachers, and for thy graces vppon them, praying thee to encrease bothe the number of them, and thy graces & gyftes in them, that theyr labours beeing blessed, thy Church may flourish.

Like thankes, praise, and honour be giuen vnto thee for all Christian Princes & Magistrates, whom thou hast stirred vp in any place, to haue a care of thy church & Gospell, and for thy mercie, to all countries that haue imbraced thy word, that bles­sed messuage of health and saluati­on, and in this aboue all other, wee thinke our selues beholding to thee ô Lorde, that thou haste beene gra­tious to our Land, to place vs there where thy Gospell flourisheth, and for that thou hast suffred vs to lyue in this age, & in such a place wherin we see thy goodnes & trueth in thy word, [Page] when other nations, yea some other places of this our owne land perrish in ignoraunce. We can not forget O lorde thy louing kindnes shewed to vs, in bestowing vpon vs so gra­cious a Princesse as our soueraigne Ladie, Queene Elizabeth, as also such christian, wise, graue and honorable counsellers, nobles and magi­strates, louing thy trueth & gospel, for preseruing & protecting so mi­raculouslie her royall personne, our countrie and all estates watching o­uer vs, reuealing & confounding the conspiracies and treasons bothe of forraine and domesticall ennimies from time to time, hauing heereto­fore deliuered vs from the captiuity and thraldome of the man of sinne, euen the Pope, restored to vs, peace, liberty, true religion, christian go­uernment, the preaching of thy gos­pell, the safetie of our life, finally all blessings, necessarie for soule & bo­dy, thou hast richlie bestowed vpon vs, for which we can neuer suffici­entlie [Page] praise thee. VVe thank thee O Lord for the safety of thys our towne and corporation where vvee dwell, in preseruing vs from all for­raine inuasion, and incursion of e­nemies, as also for our selues, our families, and charges in prouiding for vs, who hast continuallie beene mercifull vnto vs, haste preserued vs in the day time, and watched ouer vs in the night season, for all these thinges O God, and whatsoeuer els that we haue receiued at thy hands, eyther for our soules or bodies, and for all thy graces, vppon thy whole Church, and vppon all nations, wee offer vppe vnto thee thys our poore Sacrifice of thanksgiuing & praise, most hūbly praying the, in the name and mediation of thy sonne Christ Iesus, to pardon al our sinnes, & the imperfections of our prayers and thanksgiuings, & to accept of them for his sake, in whose name onely we are bold to present thy maiestye with our suites. Lastly, wee most [Page] entirelie beseech thee to stirre vs vp effectuallie vnto all thankfulnes & obedience in the whole course of our life, quickning our faith, infla­ming our loue, that we may with al cheerefulnes doo dueties to thee & our brethren in our callinges, that we & all thy seruāts whatsoeuer, being furthered & holden out by thy grace, may growe vp vnto full holi­nes in thy feare, tyll we all are fully perfited in the heauens, to receiue the full measure of our saluation, in that blessed inheritaunce of the Saints with Christ Iesus, in the day of his glorious appearaunce, to whō with thee and the holie spirit, be all praise, honour, glorye, power, might and dominion, for euer-more. A­men.

O Lord, thou most mightie God of all power & soueraigntie, who hast made the heauens and the earth, the sea & all deepe places, we thy poore seruants doo humbly throwe downe our selues before thy high maiesty, ac­knowledging all our manifolde and heynous sins, crauing entirely par­don and forgiuenes of them all for thy sonne Christe Iesus his sake, & namelie, our vnpreparednesse to thys so holie a duetye of Prayer: [Page] intreating thy good Maiesty to be­hold vs in thy fauour, and to receiue vs into thy blessed protection, that sith wee are by thee assigned our la­bours in the mightie deepes, that in the sweat of our browes, with dan­ger of our liues, we should therin trauell for our lawfull maintenaunce, it may please thy good maiestie to prosper the worke of our handes, & to guide vs in all our actions, to de­fende vs from all dangers, eyther of ennemies seeking our life or goods, or of the merciles songs and swallo­wing sandes, or of stormie wyndes, and raging tempestes, or of any o­ther distresse whatsoeuer, that bety­deth such as trauell therein. Thou mightest ô Lord we confesse, take aduauntage to make our voyages & fishings vnprosperous, to spoile our goods, to betray vs vnto enemies, to swallow vs vppe in the bottomlesse Gulfe of the Seas, because wee haue not feared thee with reuerence, haue not obeyed thy worde, haue beene [Page] carelesse of thy seruice, vnthankfull for our former deliueraunces & suc­cesse, distrustfull of thy prouidence, repyning at thy hand in our losses, forgetfull of thy great and maruai­lous workes, we haue gathered ini­quity, and haue beene stayned with the corrupt manners of other naty­ons, haue blasphemed thy name, passed our daies in ryotte, forgotten thee vpon the shoare, though lately come out of feareful daungers, wee haue beene wanton, stubborne, and vnruly, so as we haue freighted our Vessels more with sinne, vanity, & vngodlines, then with goods or la­ding, so as it is maruaile wee haue not suncken in the rolling seas, and descended down to hel, but that thy mercie hath kept vs. But ô Lorde e­uen our God, thou that tamest Le­uiathan, and smitest the heads of the dragons of the deepe, smite our sto­ny hearts with the liuely sense of our sinnes, humble vs vnto repen­taunce, turne thy displeasure from [Page] vs, deal not with vs according to our transgressions, but according to thy mercies, we appeale to the throne of thy grace, wash vs in the bloode of thy sonne from all our sinnes, renue our harts dailie to thy will, & to the obedience of thy word, that we may make conscience to heare it with re­uerence when we may, for ó Lorde in this one thing, thou hast abrid­ged those that farre trauaile on the Seas, & into diuers countries, of the dailie vse of the ministrye of thy word and sacraments, which other enioye tarrying at home, which is some pettie iudgmēt of thine, to hū ble vs, & make vs more carefull. O lord stir vs vp therefore to the rea­ding of thy word in our trauelling, & to such other exercises carefullie and faithfullie, that we may be zea­lous of thy glorie, thankfull for thy mercies & daily benefits, confident to trust in thy prouidence in all e­states, patient in troubles, without murmuring, watchful ouer our selus that we be not defiled with the cor­ruptions [Page] of other places, yea Lord, teach vs to auoid all swearing, dronkennes, ryot, exces, fornication ido­latry, contēpt, iniury, deceit, lying, quarrelling, and all vncleanes, that both when we are on the seas & on the shoare we may feare, glorifie, & praise thy most holy name, gouerne vs ó lord in our deedes, words & in our gouernment, as also our cōpany that they may obey & be subiect to al christian discipline, that so thou mightest prosper vs in al our affairs increasing the fruit of our labors, defending vs frō our enemies, frō rob­beries, losses & al daūgers, & finally bring vs safely to the port & Hauen of our desire: ó lord make vs truely thankfull vnto thee for our former deliuerances & benefits, and if euer thou shalt crosse vs by any los, hin­drance or afflictiō for our sins, hūble vs therin, let vs acknowledg thy hād therin with thankfulnes & patience, that we may therby be spurred for­ward to the reforming of our liues. Bee thou with vs on the boystrous [Page] ô Lord in thy name wee hoyse our sayles, and launche foorth into the depe, be present with vs in our troubles and dangers, heare vs & deliuer vs when we call vpon thee, for great are the daungers that we sayle in e­uerie way, but thou art our God, we trust in thee, oh saue vs, guide vs, protect vs, deliuer vs, that wee may still liue to prayse thee. VVe com­mit Lord our selues, our shyps, our goods and liues into thy hand, both this day or night, and euer heereaf­ter to bee preserued at thy pleasure, and let vs neuer forget all thy mar­uailous works. O Lord wee praye thee blesse all our freendes and kyn­dred on the land, our wyues, parents children, masters, families, or whomsoeuer, that are tyed to vs by anye band of freendship or nature in the Lord. Finally, Lord wee pray thee frame our soules to all duties of ho­lines towards thy maiesty, increa­sing all true fayth, feare and loue in vs towardes thee, inflaming our [Page] hartes with all christian loue to our brethren for thy sake. These things if thou shalt performe vnto vs O Lord our God, wee shall neuer for­get to praise and magnifie thy holy name therefore. These things ô lord with all other graces necessarye for vs, for thy whole church, for all na­tions, people, and for all our brethrē, and for all degrees, wee hūbly craue the same at thy maiesties hande, in the name & mediation of thy son Christe Iesus, saying as hee hath taught vs. Our father which art in heauen, hallowed he thy name. &c.

O Lord increase our fayth and obedience toward thee and thy worde. Amen.
