LORD, we beseech thee, mercifully hear our prayers, and fpare all thofe who confefs their fins unto thee; that they whofe confciences by fin are accufed, by thy merciful pardon may be abfolved, through Chrift our Lord. Amen.

MOST mighty God, and merciful Father, who hast conpallion upon all men, and haten nothing that thou haft made; who wouldeft not the death of a finner, but that he fhould rather turn from his fin, and be faved; Mercifully forgive us our trefpaffes; receive and comfort us, who are grieved, and wearicd with the burden of our fins. Thy property is always to have mercy; to thee Only it appertaineth to forgive fins. Spare us therefore, good Lord, pare thy people, whom thou hait redeemed; enter not into judgement with thy ferv. ants, who are vile earth and milerable finners; but fo turn thine anger from us, who meekly acanowledge our vlenefs, and truly repent us of our faults; and fo make hafte to help us in this world, that we may ever live with thee in the world to come, through Jefus Christ our Lord.

Amen.
