I believe that he ascended unto heaven / and that he hath received of the father / rule / & honour above all angels / and creatures. And that he now sitteth on the right hand of the father / that is / that he is king and lord over all the goods of God in heaven hell and earth.

Wherefore he may help me and them that believe / in all manner of adversities against all our adversaries and enemies.

Wherfore he may helpe me and theym that bileue / yn all maner of aduersitees against all oure aduersares and ennemyes.
