Blessed be thy holy Name, O Lord, our God, for these thy good benefits, wherewith thou hast so plentifully at this time refreshed our bodies: O Lord, vouchsafe likewise to feed our souls with the spiritual food of thy holy Word and Spirit unto life everlasting. Lord, defend and save thy whole Church, our gracious King Charles, Queen Mary, the noble and hopeful Prince Charles, with the rest of the royal progeny; the Lady Elizabeth, the Kings only Sister, and her Princely issue: Forgive us our sins, and unthankfulness, pass by our manifold infirmities, make us all mindful of our last end, and of the reckoning that we are to make to thee therein, and in the mean while grant unto us health, peace, and truth, in Jesus Christ, our Lord, and only Saviour. Amen.
