only Son to be unto us both a sacrifice for sin, and also an ensample of godly life; give us grace that we may most thankfully receive that His inestimable benefit, and also daily endeavour ourselves to follow the blessed steps of His most holy life, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Almighty God, we beseech Thee grant unto Thy people grace that they may wait with vigilance for the advent of Thy Son our Lord; that when He shall arise from Thy right hand to visit the earth in righteousness, and Thy people with salvation, He may find us not sleeping in sin, but diligent in His service, and rejoicing in His praises; that so we may enter with Him into the marriage of the Lamb; through His merits, who liveth and reigneth with Thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, world without end. Amen.

Almighty God, who hast knit together Thine elect in one communion and fellowship, in the mystical body of Thy Son Christ Jesus our Lord; grant us grace so to follow Thy blessed saints in all virtuous and godly living, that we may come to those unspeakable joys which Thou hast prepared for them that unfeignedly love Thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

O merciful God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is the Resurrection and the Life; in whom whosoever believeth shall live and not die, and whosoever liveth and believeth in Him shall not die eternally; we humbly beseech Thee, O Lord, to raise us from the death of sin unto the life of righteousness, that we may be ready for His appearing; and grant that those who shall depart this life before His coming may rest in Him; and that we may all, at the general resurrection in the

last day, be found acceptable in Thy sight, and receive that blessing which Thy wellbeloved Son shall then pronounce to all that love and fear Thee, saying, Come ye blessed of my Father, receive the kingdom prepared for you from the beginning of the world. Grant this, we beseech Thee, most merciful Father, through Jesus Christ, our Amen.

Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name: Thy kingdom come: Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil; for Thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

By the Head alone.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the

Holy Ghost, be with us all, evermore. Amen.

SATURDAY EVENING.

AFTER READING SCRIPTURE.

To be said by all present.

ALMIGHTY God, and most merciful Father, we confess to Thee that we were conceived in sin and shapen in iniquity, and that as we have grown with years we have multiplied our offences; we have sinned in vain thoughts and unlawful desires of our hearts; in the idle and perverse words of our mouths, and in the wicked works and fruitless course of our lives. We have sinned by our ingratitude for Thy blessings, by our impatience under Thy chastisements, and by preferring the gratification of our own wills before the
