thine, O thou disposer of Life and Death, O thou preserver and benefa∣ctor of Souls; O thou that makest all things, and changest them by the creating Word which framed them both seasonably and wisely, according to the depth of thy Wisdom and Pro∣vidence! govern thou my life * 1.2 in the flesh as long as shall be most expedient for me and thy Church. And in thy good time receive me, I beseech thee, as one prepared, not sur∣prized, so as I may not flie thee at the last day, nor come with an unwilling mind like one forcibly broke off and snatcht away from this world, but that I may go readily and chearfully to that [most] blessed and eternal life which is in Christ Jesus our Lord, to whom be glorie for ever and ever.
Amen.
