The Prayer.
O God from whom commeth our help, thou art a righteous Iudge and preservest all that are true of heart, deliver us from our persecutors who travail with mischief against us, and have digged a pit for our destruction. O let their wick∣ednesse and malicious devices against thy servants come utterly to an end for evermore. Thou, O Lord, art strong and able to take vengeance, & yet being provoked every day still art patient to∣wards us & compassionate. Deliver us from their wrath to whom we have done no injustice or dis∣pleasure: pardon our offences against thee, & pro∣tect our Innocency against them, that we may praise thy name and give thanks unto thee for thy righteousnesse and salvation, who art blessed for e∣vermore. Amen.
