I Thank thee, ô Lord, for my awaking with thee,1 and that with a willing and ready mind I entered into the day after, with calling upon thee (if thou diddest so) and for that I had liberty and opportunity thereto: and that afterward I went cheerfully to the duties of my calling, or supplied the omitting §Dthereof, some other way with a good conscience: and that I was wary in company and in solitariness, and in my prosperity, and under my chastisements that I might not offend; but that I did some good as I could: and that I had part in family exercises, and had care in my earthly dealings that I might not be made worldly by them: that I have taken any benefit by meditation and reading (if thou hast done so:) and now at the end of the day, that I look back how I have passed the day.
