ANd ô Lord grant that
I may love thee as a
Father, for thy indulgence,
adore thee as Almighty,
for thy power, and by
good works, commend my
Soule unto thee, as a faith∣full
Creatour. 1 Pet. 4.
Grant also that I may re∣ceive,
From Jesus
Salvation, Anoynting,
From Christ
From the onely begotten
Son. Adoption.
That I may worship and
serve him in faithFor his conception,For his Nativitie
in humilitie.
For his sufferings,
in patience.For his Crosse in my
crucifying all oc∣casions
to sin.For his death,
in the mortification
of my flesh.For his Sepulture in bu∣rying
my bad purposes
by good works.For his descent in my
meditation upon hell.For his resurrection, in
newnesse of life.For his ascention, in my
contemplation of hea∣venly
things.For his Session, in my
choice of the better part
on the right hand.For his returne, in the
feare of his second com∣ming.For his future judge∣ment
in the judging of
my selfe, before I come
to be judged.
And grant me further
the inspiration of saving
grace, from thy most holy
Scepter, that I may partici∣pate
of vocation, & Sanc∣tification
in the holy Ca∣tholique
Church.
