An other prayer out of the same psalme.
Seeing thou hast of thy loving kindness (O most good and merciful God) chosen all faithful people to be thy deer children, grant that we who are brethren by a blessed generation, may be fastened together in mutual love, long peace, and perpetual charity, so that (during this life) we may take perfect pleasure of such kind of tranquility, and also become an exceeding delectable odour towards the perpetual salvation of all others which be as yet strangers to thee. Thy blessed Church may be (O heavenly father) through this especial example, greatly wondered at of all men. For certainly we know by experience that thou hast used to pour out a most ample blessing upon so many as lead an agreeable and friendly life in thy healthful doctrine and pure religion: and therefore do we now require this earnestly at thy merciful hands before all riches and other earthly commodities, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
