O Eternal GOD and most merciful Father, I thy poor & unworthy servant, do must humbly beseech thee, in Jesus Christ thy dear Sons name, and for his sake, graciously in his death and obedience, to pardon and forgive me all my sins what so ever, which at any time, or by any manner of mean, I ⟨p. 80⟩have committed against thy Majesty, or any other. Seal up in my heart, O Lord, this great benefit of the free pardon and full forgiveness of all my sins, by the assured testimony of thy blessed spirit, bearing record unto my spirit, that I am thy Child, & by unfeigned pardoning & forgiving of others, which any manner of way have offended against me. Make the death & resurrection of thy Son so effectual in me, that I may not only feel and find in the same, the forgiveness of my sins, and the hope of eternal salvation: but that I may be instructed thereby all the days of my life, more and more to die unto sin, and ⟨p. 81⟩daily more and more to live unto righteousness of life & holy conversation. And for as much as through thy goodness I have purposed this day, to communicate in the use of thy Word and Sacraments, I beseech thee good Father, to prepare my heart, and to open the ears of my understanding, that I may not only reverently and profitably hearken to thy voice, speaking unto me out of thy word, labouring all the days of my life, to conform my self in practise to the obedience thereof; but also, that I may fruitfully be partaker of the fruits and effects of the death and passion of thy dear Son, which it pleased thee in this ⟨p. 82⟩Sacrament to offer unto me. To this end and purpose, I beseech thee to grant, that I be not carried away in the contemplation and consideration of the earthly and corruptible things objected therein to my senses, but that my Faith may be set up and raised, to the beholding and assured feeling of those Graces, which it pleaseth thee by the same, to offer unto me. Give me grace, good Lord, to bring with me a steadfast Faith in the trueth of thy promises, that by it as by an eye, I may behold, & by the same, as by a hand, I may apprehend Jesus Christ thy Son, sitting at thy right hand, to be my only and continual justifier, sanctifier, ⟨p. 83⟩and redeemer. Grant me grace also, to bring with me, as an earnest, hatred of all my former evils whatsoever;
