HOwe the preest doth breke the holy sacramēt in thre partyes and sayth thre tymes. Agnus dei qui tollis peccata mūdi mi¦serere nobis. This doth sygny¦fye howe god hangynge on the crosse / hath cōuerted and hath had mercy of thre maner of folkes. That is to say / of the thefe at his ryght hande: of Longius whiche dyde perce the herte of oure lorde with a spere / and of many other of the cōmon people which we¦re there present.

¶ Orayson. Pater nr̄. Aue maria.

O Blyssed lorde Ihesu chryste / I do thāke the that thou hangynge on the crosse / haste suffred thy selfe to be ta∣ken downe of synners by great loue / wher∣with thy dyuyne hert was inflamed of thy great mercy / I praye the good lorde suffre thy great mercy to dyscende vpon the mul∣tytude and ygnoraūce of my synnes / to the entent that my soule may be a conuenyent place of the dyuyne grace here in erth / and after in the glory. Amen.
