The Priest standing at the North-side of the Lords Table, shall say,

OVr Father which art in heaven, Hallow∣ed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not in∣to temptation: But deliver us from evil. Amen.

ALmighty God, unto whom all hearts be open, all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid: cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of thy holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love thee, and worthily magni∣fie thy holy Name, through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Minister.

GOd spake these words, and said, I am the Lord thy God: Thou shalt have none other gods but me.

People.

Lord have mercy upon us, and incline our hearts to keep this law.

Minister.

Thou shalt not make to thy self any graven I∣mage, nor the likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, or in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down to them, nor worship them; for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, and visit the sins of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me, and shew mercy unto thousands in them that love me, and keep my commandments.

People.

Lord have mercy upon us, and incline our hearts to keep this law.

Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his Name in vain.

Minister.

Remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath∣day. Sir days shalt thou labour and do all that thou hast to do, but the seventh day is the Sab∣bath of the Lord thy God. In it thou shalt do no manner of work, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, thy man-servant, and thy mild-ser∣vant, thy cattel, and the stranger that is within thy gates. For in sir days the Lord made hea∣ven and earth, the sea and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day; wherefore the Lord blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it.

People.

Lord have mercy upon us, and incline our hearts to keep this law.
