For FAITH.

O Blessed Lord, whom without Faith it is impossible to please, let thy Spirit I be∣seech thee work in me such a Faith as may be acceptable in thy sight, even such as worketh by love, O let me not rest in a dead ineffectu∣al Faith, but grant that it may be such as may shew it self by my works, that it may be that victorious Faith which may enable me to o∣vercome the world, and conform me to the Jmage of that Christ, on whom I beleeve, that so at the last I may receive the end of my Faith, even the salvation of my soul, by the same Jesus Christ.
