O father comfort our conscience / both now / and in the day of death / which conscience now is abashed seeing his sin and iniquity / & then also shall be abashed / remembering thy cruel judgment. Give thy peace into our hearts that we (rejoicing) may look for thy judgment. Enter not into judgement with thy strait law / for in it shall no man be fund innocent & righteous. Teach us dear father not to stick or be comforted in our good works or deservings / but to give and submit our self plainly and faithfully to thine infinite and incomparable mercy. Again. Make that we despair not for this our guilty and sinful life / but that we may judg thy mercy more mighty and stronger then our life / how soever we have ordered it. Help and comfort all mens conscience which in the point of death / or in any other such temptation are vexed with desperation. Forgive them and us our de• ces / comfort them / refresh them / and ⟨image 43⟩he reconciled unto them. Give us thy goodness for our malice / as thou commandest that we should do. Cast down the horrible fend slanderer / accuser / and increaser / of our since now and in the point of death and to be short / in all straitness of conscience. Give us grace to avoid that by our defamation mens since appear not the more grievous, Judge us not after the accusation of the devil and our wretched conscience / nether hear the voice of our enemies which accuse us day and night before the / even as we will not hear them which defame and accuse other. Take from us the grievous heap of the since in our conscience / so that we refreshed by he sure trust and confidence of thy mercy in the bottom of our hart / may live / dye / suffer / and take all things patiently. In this petition take place all Psalms and prayers which against since cry on the mercy of God.
