Let us pray.
O God, who didst severely punish our first parents for eating the forbidden fruit, and hast so often recommended to us the necessary dutys of abstinence and fasting, grant we beseech thee that by observing diligently thy holy Disci∣pline propos'd to us in the laws and practise of thy Church, we may correct our levitys and revenge our excesses, and subdue our irregular appetites, and frustrate the temptations of the
enemy, and secure our perseverance, and daily proceed to new degrees of vertue and devotion; till in the end of our lives, we receive the end of our labours, the salvation of our souls in thy heavenly kingdom, through our Lord Jesus Christ thy Son, who with thee and the holy Ghost lives and reigns One God world without end. Amen.
These Versicles, Responses and Prayers are said, kneeling, on all Fasting days, immediately af∣ter the Prayer at Lauds. Then,
Commemoration, &c. as page 29.
