The Prayer.
Almighty God, seeing we are stuffed full with such variety of vices, and that we so often, yea and so many ways provoke thee to wrath and indignation against us; grant that at least we never harden our hearts against thy holy admonitions, but may rather show our selves pliable and obedient, ⟨p. 133⟩and at the very first, may turn unto thee, lest our pride and rebellion force thee at length to manifest thy mighty hand to our confusion: but rather for as much as heretofore we have had experience of thy fatherly affection and liberality towards us, so we also may yield willingly to learn our duties for the time to come, that thus we accustoming our selves to bear thy yoke; at the last attaining to the end of our race which thou hast set before us, we may also obtain that blessed rest which is prepared for us in heaven, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
