As for the Forms of publick and private Prayers for them, I shall refer you to all antient and modern Missals, Processionals, Pontificals, Ceremonials, Psalters, Primers, Le∣tanies, Manuals, Books of Prayers and Devotions, which are almost infinite in all Popish and Protestant Kingdoms throughout the World. I shall only recite a few publick Prayers of this Nature, for Example sake.
The 1. is Missa Aethiopum, Or the usual Forms of Com∣mon Prayers used in all the Aethiopian Churches: where∣in there are these, Preces pr•• Rege Da Domine pacem, Re∣gi nostro Claudio, et Principibus ejus, & Judicibus ejus, & subditis ejus, orna eos omni genere pacis, Rex pacis pacem da Nobis, quoniam omnia dedisti Nobis.
The 2. is the antient Prayers used for the Roman Em∣perors in Churches Deus Regnorum omnium & Christiani maximè Protector Imperii: Da servo tuo Imperatori nostro R. triumphum virtutis tuae scienter excolere, ut qui tua constituti∣one est Princeps, tuo munere sit Potens, Per eundem Dominum nostrum.
Deus qui ad praedicandum aeterni Regis Evangelium, Ro∣manorum Imperium praeparasti, praetende famulo tuo Impe∣ratori nostro R. arma coelestia, ut pax Ecclesiarum nulla tur∣betur tempestate bellorum, Per eundem Dominum nostrum.
These two Forms of publick Prayers are still retained
