Prisoner. Lord, if I must undergo so dreadful a doom, as to depart from thee, the Father of Lights, and Fountain of Life, yet bless me before I go; One good wish of thy Heart, one good word of thy Mouth will make me blessed where ever I go. Those ⟨p. 18⟩whom thou blessest, are blessed indeed; Bless me, even me, O my Father: At this parting grant me thy blessing.

Judge. Sinner, be gone, and my curse go along with thee. Thou hast many a time despised my Blessing when it hath been offered to thee, though I was made a Curse to purchase it for thee; therefore, I say, depart from me, and the Curse of an angry Lord, and of a righteous Law accompany thee for ever. Depart, I say, thou cursed.

Prisoner. Lord, if I must go, and thy Curse with me, send me to some good place, where I may find somewhat to refresh me under thy loss and curse. It's misery enough to lose thy presence, Good Lord, command me to some good place.
