The Confession.
ALmighty and most mercifull Fa∣ther, I have erred and strayed from thy wayes like a lost Sheep: I have followed too much the devices and desires of my owne heart: I have offended against thy holy laws: I have left undone those things which I ought to have done, and I have done those things which I ought not to have done; and there is no health in me. But thou O Lord, have mercy upon me mi∣serable Offendour. Spare thou me, O God, which confess my faults. Restore thou me that am penitent; According to thy promises declared unto man∣kind, in Christ Jesu our Lord; and grant O most mercifull Father for his sake, that I may hereafter live a godly, righ∣teous and sober life, to the glory of thy holy name. Amen.
