In the time of warre.

O Almightie God, King of all kings, and Gouernor of all things, whose power no creature is able to resist, to whom it belongeth iustlie to pu∣nish sinners, & to be mercifull vnto them that truelie repent; saue and deliuer vs, we humblie beseech thee, from the hands of our enimies; a∣bate their pride, asswage their malice, and confound their deuises; that we being armed with thy defence, may be preserued euermore from all perils, to glorifie thee, which art the onlie giuer of all victorie; through the merits of thine onlie sonne Iesus Christ our Lord,

Amen.
