WIlt thou then, O God, vouchsafe me to partake of that which my Soul has so long thirsted after! Shall I this day be admitted a Guest at that Divine Banquet, from which my own unworthiness ought for ever to exclude me! Wilt thou be so gracious to a miserable sinner, as to accept of a renew∣ing of the Covenant I made in Baptism, after that by nume∣rous
ways I have violated and broken it! Then, Lord, I will not absent my self, but draw near, hoping to be found in the number of those whom thou dost invite, even of those who truly and earnestly repent of their sins, who are in Love and Charity with their Neighbours; who intend to lead a New Life, to follow thy Commandments, and to walk from henceforth in thy Holy Ways. For upon these, and no Terms else, do I come to the Holy Sacrament; which yet I dare not receive, till with all Humility of Soul and Body, I have prostrated my self, and made Confession of my sins.
