Phi. O eternal and merciful God,1 look down from heaven, and visit this thy weak servant, as thou diddest visit Toby & Sarah, Peters wives mother & the Captains servant. Bless him as ⟨p. 345⟩thou didst bless Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Behold him, O Lord, with the eyes of thy mercy. Replenish his hart with all joy, & keep from him all sinful thoughts and wicked imaginations. And send down thy angel of peace, that he may keep and defend him in everlasting peace through Jesus christ thy dear Son our Lord & saviour.2
