After thou hast strictly examined thy con∣science, what good dueties thou hast omitted, or what evil thou hast done in the day, and hast heartily repented of the sin: compose thy last waking thoughts with such an ejacu∣lation.

LOrd forgive us all our sinnes and failings this day: seal up our re∣demption by thy good spirit the comforter of thine elect: give us that peace of conscience which may cause us to rest securely on thy mercies: let our sleep be re••reshing and comfortable unto us: restrain the enemy that he may neither perplexe nor disturb it: Lord, whose providence sleepth not, preserve us, and ours, sleeping, waking, living and dying, that in every estate it may appeare wee are thine, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

AMEN.
