Prayer.
O God, whose infinite mercy has wonder∣fully
contriv'd the very Body of our Sa∣viour,
which glorify'd sits at thy right hand in
the heav'ns, to become stil the daily visible Ob∣ject
and Solliciter of our adorations on earth!
Grant us, we beseech Thee, so devoutly to cele∣brate

this glorious Festival, instituted by thy
Church in memory of that stupendious provi∣dence,
as may sanctify us every day to feed
more strongly with it our faith and hope and
charity; and raise in us a higher appetite of that
clear unveiled Vision, to which our hidden God
thus miraculously now condescends to invite us;
through the same our Lord, &c.
