The Collect.

ALmightie God, we beseech thee graciously to be∣hold this thy family, for the which our Lord Ie∣sus Christ was contented to be betrayed, and giuen vp into the hands of wicked men, & to suffer death vpon the crosse, who liueth, and reigneth, &c.

ALmightie and euerlasting God, by whose spirite the whole bodie of the Church is gouerned and sanctified: Receiue our supplications and praiers, which we offer before thee for all estates of men in thy holy congregation, that euerie member of the same in his vocation and ministerie, may truely and godly serue thee, through our Lord Iesus Christ.

MErcifull God, who hast made all men, and hatest nothing that thou hast made, nor wouldest the death of a sinner, but rather that he should be con∣uerted and liue, haue mercie vpon all Iewes, Turkes, Infidels, and Heretikes, and take from them all ig∣norance, hardnesse of heart, and contempt of thy word: and so fetch them home, blessed Lord, to thy flocke, that they may be saued among the remnant of the true Israelites, and bee made one sold vnder one shepheard, Iesus Christ our Lord, who liueth and reigneth, &c.
