¶ The Prayer.
Grant almighty God, seeing thou hast made it open and known unto us by so many, so clear, and most sure testimonies, that we may look for none other redeemer then this thy Son whom already thou hast given unto us, and hast established his authority and his divine and eternal power by so many miracles, and hast sealed the same as well by the publishing of thy Gospel, as by the seal of thy holy spirit in our hearts, and doest confirm the same by daily experience: that we may remain firm and stable in him, and that we never turn from him, neither that our faith fail at an time, whatsoever Satan attempt against us, but that we may persevere in the course of thy holy vocation, whiles that at length we may be gathered into that eternal beatitude and blessed state of rest, which is purchased unto us by the blood of thine only begotten Sonne. So be it.
