The Prayer.

Almighty God, and heavenly Father, since thou diddest once in such wise vouchsafe to arm thy servant. Jeremiah with the invincible power of thy holy spirit, that at this day his doctrine humbles us: grant we may learn willingly to subject our necks to thy yoke, and so to receive, yea and to embrace whatsoever thou hast taught us by this thine holy servant, that thou raising us up by thine hand, and being underpropped by thy power and defence, we may fight hand to hand against the world, and the prince thereof, Satan himself: that in the mean while each of us in our places and callings may so confidently rely upon thy power, that we may not doubt to expose our lives to all dangers, as oft as need shall require: and that we may valiantly fight, and also persevere, till the last encounter be finished, when having run out our ⟨p. 43⟩race, we may in the end attain to that blessed rest which is reserved for us in heaven, by Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Almighty God, and heauenly Father, since thou diddest once in such wise vouchsafe to arme thy seruant. Ieremiah with the inuincible power of thy holy spirit, that at this day his doctrine humbles vs: grant wee may learne willingly to subiect our neckes to thy yoke, and so to receiue, yea and to imbrace whatsoeuer thou hast taught vs by this thine holy seruant, that thou raising vs vp by thine hand, and being vnderpropped by thy power and defence, we may fight hand to hand against the world, and the prince thereof, Satan himselfe: that in the meane while each of vs in our places and callings may so confidently relie vpon thy power, that wee may not doubt to expose our liues to all dangers, as oft as need shall require: and that we may valiantly fight, and also perseuere, till the last encounter be finished, when hauing runne out our ⟨p. 43⟩race, we may in the end attaine to that blessed rest which is reserued for vs in heauen, by Iesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
