Our earnest request is (O most good and merciful God) that thou wouldst augment the fellowship of thy deer children (as well in number as also in faith) & all other ornaments of thy excellent grace. And like as thou hast given Aaron to be a most faithful pastor of thy children of Israel when they grew to be a very great people, so now also prepare godly, learned, and wise Ministers for thy sacred Church, by whose good behaviour the Egypt of our men may fade away, and let the doctrine wherewith we be instructed by them, be kindled daily more and more in us, so that every one of us may be enriched most abundantly both with spiritual goods, and spiritual fruits. Suffer us not (O excellent father) to be at any time destitute of the bright light of thy sacred word, and guiding of the holy ghost, whereas otherwise we shall both miserably stray in the Wilderness of this miserable life, ⟨image 166⟩and also perish exceeding unfortunately, that when as innumerable perils of temptations hang over thy faithful servants, let them not want the strength of thy good grace and loving favour, whereby they may be able (so long as life endureth) to set out thy glorious kingdom unto many, and finally obtain at thy loving hands the dwelling place of perpetual felicity, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
