O Lord God, which for the sin of man diddest once drown all the world except eight persons, ⟨image 139⟩and afterward of thy great mercy diddest promise never to destroy it so again, we humbly beseech thee, that although we for our iniquities have worthily de serued this Plague of rain and waters: yet upon our true repentance, thou wilt send us such weather, whereby we may receive the fruits of the earth in due season, and learn both by thy punishment to amend our lives, and for thy clemency to give the praise & glory, through Jesus Christ our Lord.
