The Prayer.

O God of our praise, who wast contented that thy sonne Iesus Christ should be be∣trayed into the hands of sinners by one of his own Apostles, the Traitor Iudas, and in pu∣nishment of so great impiety did'st suffer Sa∣tan to stand at his right hand tempting him to despaire, and to give sentence upon himselfe to condemne himselfe, and to execute his owne judgement, and gavest his Bishoprick to ano∣ther: let thy righteous judgements finde out all those that are Traytors to their Prince, e∣nemies to the Church, Apostates from Reli∣gion, Hypocrites under specious pretences, and beauteous titles; that they may be clothed with shame, and may cover themselves with their owne confusion as with a cloke; that by thy punishments in this life, they may be driven

to a sharpe and salutary repentance, and may be saved in the life to come. Deale thou with us, O Lord, according to thy mercy, take away thy curse, and let not thy blessing be farre from us: let not our wickednesse, nor the wickednesse of our fathers be had in remembrance in thy sight, let our mindes be alway to do good, & our hearts and lips be given unto prayer, and our prayers so guided by thy assistances, that they be not turned into sin; that when we go hence like the shadow that departeth, and are driven away like the gra∣shopper, when the dayes of our vanity and re∣joycing are past, we may stand at thy right hand, and our soules be saved from the lot and portion of the unrighteous, through the righteousnesse and passion of our Lord and Saviour Iesus Christ. Amen.
