O receaue mee graciously , & forgyue me all my sinnes : and from henceforth gyue me thy holy Angell to conduct mee : And strengthen mee with these vertues : to wythstande the deuill , the world , and the appetites of the synnefull fleshe these armures , the grace of thy holy spirit , the mighty vertue . O write in my harte thy holy worde , thy law , & commaundements put vpon me the brest plate of righteousenesse , directe my life , & conuersacion accordinge to thi gospel of peace Geue me the shield of faith to fight against sinne , and desperation , the helmete of health vnto my saluation , through the merites of thy dearely beloued son Iesus Christ , the whiche liueth , & raigneth god wyth thee , & the holy ghost in glory . Amen .

O Lord god mercyfull Father the author , & gouernor of all creatures , the geuer of al wisdom , I pore wretched sinner beseching thee for thy sons Christes sake , that thou wilt vouchsafe to poure vpon me thy holi spyrite , to work in my mynde , hart & soule , thy wil & pleasure to do at all tymes : so that I maye walke in this world to thy honor , professinge vnfaynedly , the gospel of thy sonne , & wlake according therafter , vnto my saluacion , throughe the merits of thy sonne my lords and sauior Iesu Christe the whiche is with thee in heauen gloryfied . Amen .

An other prayer .

O lord god , father , for thy sonne Christes sake haue mercy vpon me & forgeue me al my sinnes , & from henceforth take from me all rancor , and swellinge of my hart , & creat in me a new spirite , an vprighte harte , such a harte as may feare thy rigorous iudgemente , a harte to lamente my vnkindenesse , & sinnefull life .

O lord haue mercy vpon all people . Amen .

Our father which arte . &c.

The Crede .

I beleue in God . &c.

My Testament .

THis I make my Testament , and laste will : in the name of the eternall liuynge God : the father , the sonne & the holy ghost : in whose name I was baptized . In Math . 2● marc. 16 whome onely I hope . and beleue to be saued . Amen . First I bequethe my soule into thy hands : O god . father : sonne , & holy Ghost . Gyne ● Esa●e 53 Iohn 16

Thou hast first made me and thou hast gyuen thy sonne to becom man : and died for my sinnes & for the sinnes of the people , O father Iohn 1● for thy sonnes sake haue mercy vpon me .

O lorde Iesu Christ , thou 1 Petri 1 sonne of god , thou haste boughte me with thy precious Heb 10 bloud .

By one oblacion sufficiently , Act 1 for all that beleue in thee .

O Christ , god and man , Iohn 14 which art in heauen , haue m●rcy vpon me , & be thou my mercifull mediator for me vnto thy father , that I m●y be saued .

O holy Ghost god , coequal with the father and the sonne , haue mecry vpon me , worke thy deuine power in me , through thy gracious inspiracion , draw me vnto Iesu Christ , that I may find fauor & be saued . Amen

The second part .

As concerninge my body : Gen 1. 13 that I bequeath vnto the earth from whence it came . Eccl 40

My confession .

I knowledge , and confesse with al my hart , that I am a sinner , yea such a sinner as hath neede of the grace mercy , and fauour of God .

My faith ioyned with hope .

I beleue , that the lord will haue mercy vpon me : for hee hath first made me , & Gen 2 if it shal please him he may saue mee , This I beleue , whether I liue , or dy : I am the lordes .

My Hope .

I hope that I shall finde bothe grace & mercy for my sinnes of God the father euen for Iesu Christs sake : in him I beleue , he is my redemer : he lyueth euer , and euer .

He maketh intercession Rom 8 for sinners .

So this I know that now Iohn 2 I am a corruptible bodye , but I hope through Christ to rise an in corruptyble body , Now a mortal body : but through Christ and his merites , I hope to haue an immortall body .

Nowe an earthly bodye : i Cor 13 then a heauenly body .

For as many as shal be saued Math 13 shal shine in the kingdom of God : as bright as the sunne , this my faith & hope I lay vp in my minde the mind of my soule trusting only to be saued through the merites of Iesu Christ god Marci 16 & man , which is in heauen .

From whence we loke a gain , the which shal change our vile body , & mak it like his own most glorious body : Phi ● where by he is able to subdue al things vnto him self . O Christ haue mercy vpon me , thou hast redemed me , O Christe saue me .

Say I will the Crede .

¶ I beleue in God &c.

Iohn . 17. 1. Cor 8.

THe glas , wherin we should behold our in firmities proceding to vs orygynally of our naturall father Adam . He first brought sinne in Gen 3 to this world : In so muche that sinne , and death went Rom 5 ouer al men , as saith the prophet Psa 52 Ephe ● Dauid : we are conceiued in sinne . And wee are borne into this world , the children of wrath , fulfilled Iob 14 with much mysery : & haue but a short tyme to liue .

Earth we are , and to the Gen ● earth we shal turne again .

All flesh is as grasse , and Esa 40 the glory of man is as the floure of the grasse .

And also great trauailes Eccl 40 are created for al men , from the day that they go out of their mothers belly , til the tyme that they bee buryed in the earthe , the mother of all things .

We are all sinners , vncleane , Esa 6● Eccl 7 vnrighteous . Not one iust vpon the earth that doth good and sinneth not .

And when we are departed Eccles 9 out of this world , there is no remedy for our saluacion of any thing that may be done . The prophet Dauid Psalm 49 saith . No man may deliuer his brother from hel , neither make agrement vnto God for him . We nowe mai clerely se in what case al mankind is in naturally , al sinfull , infected by nature vnto the dying of the soule and body : and snared alwaies with the snares of our ennemy the deuell , the world , and the fleshe . This is the mortall bataile , the which taketh vs captiues into that sorowful prison of hell .

Wher the wormes of tormente Matt ● neuer dye , and the fier neuer goth out .

And there continually , Apo 2● to remaine in euerlasting dampnacion , in that woful second death . O vaine man , O most miserable , o earth , a shes , dust , O vain beutie , O vain proud hart , o worldly couetous mind , O worldly glory , O gold & mony , O what profiteth all the pleasures of this worlde ? youth , beutie , riches , landes , rentes , frendes , polling , falshed , wrong gotten goods , sumptuous buyldinges , curious apparel , & costlye fare , or long tyme in this world liuing viciously & dy vngodly . Now se then all the glory of this world wherto it hath , & doth bring al mankind , euen into the euerlastinge fier of Hell , with the great rich man spoken of in the gospell . Therfore Luke 1● loue not the world , nether the things that are in the world . If any man loue the worlde , the loue of the father is not in him , for all that is in the world , is the luste of the fleshe , and the lust of the eyes , & the pride of life , whiche is not of the father , but of the world . The world passeth away , & the lustes there of : but he that I●hn ● fulfilleth the will of god , bideth for euer , saith Iohn . Lay from you the old man , whiche marres hym selfe through deceuable lustes . Ephe 4 And againe he saithe : who so is godly , holdeth himself content with that he hath . For we brought no thyng into this world , & we shall ●ary nothing out So then when we haue foode & r●ymtē , set vs therwith be content : for t●ey that wold be worldly rich , fal into temptacion , and into the snares of foolishnes , and noisome lustes : which drown men in destruction , & dampnacion couetousnes is the rote of ● Timo 6 all euel saith sainct Paul , and he that trusteth in his Proue 11 riches shall haue a fall ▪

S●ke the lord while he Esa 55 maye be founde , call vpon him while he is nye .

S●y not , tush the mercy Eccles . ● of the lord is great , he shal forgyue mee my sinnes , ●e they neuer so manye . But truly as he is mercifull , so goeth wrath from him .

Therefore make no taryyng , tou●ne to the lorde , and put not of from d●ye , to day , Therefore forsake thy sinnes , and praye that thy sinnes maye be forgiuen E●cl 11 thee .

To repent is the gifte of god .

I will geue myne honor Esa 48 to none other . I am the first , and the last .

WHen Iesus hath spoken Act ● vnto them , he was taken vp , and a cloude receiued hym from their sight . And while they loked after hi● as he went in the heuen . Behold ther stood by them two men in white garmentes , which also said : Ye men of Galiley , why stand ye gazing vp into the heauen : this Iesus whiche is taken vp from you into heauen , shal come euen so as ye haue sene hym go into Act 2 heauen .

God loued vs : & hath sent his son into this world that we might liue through him

Christ hathe made the agrement 1. Iohn . 4 for our sinnes .

It is the spirit of god that 1. Iohn . 4 confesseth Christe to come in the flesh .

Christ hath apeared once Heb 9 to put sinne to flyghte , by the offerynge vp of hym self .

We are saued , and made Heb 10 righteous by the offerynge vp of the body of christ for al.

He is the mediator of the Heb 1● new testament .

Therefore , by him let vs Heb 4. 13 offer vp alwaye vnto God , the sacrifice of prayse : that is to saye : the frute of those lippes whiche confesse hys holy name , and to do good vnto all people : wyth suche sacrifices god is plesed .

If ye will haue wisdom , Iacob . 12 aske it of god .

I was dead , and am a liue Apo ● for euermore saith he .

I haue the key of hel and death .

The xii Articles of the Christen faith , with an exposicion . I beleue in god the father Iere 01 almighty maker of heauen and earth .

HE is a true God : and a liuing God , and a mercifull father .

And in Iesu Christe his onely sonns , our Lord .

There is but one god , Cor 8 euen the father by whom are all thynges . And one Lorde Iesus Christe , by whome are all thinges . Luke 12

The which was conceiued by the holy ghoste , borne of the virgyn Marye .

Accordyng vnto the promise Gen ● of god the father , And to ful fill the prophesye Esay 5. 11 of the Prophetes

The sonne of God becam Matth ● man , borne into this world to saue the people from their sinnes , nether is there saluacion Act 4 in any other .

Suffered vnder Poncius Pilate , was crucified , ded , and buried , he descended into Hell , and the thyrd daye he rase agayne from the dead .

CHriste died for vs & our i Cor 1 Osay 1● sines , & was buried . And the third day he rose from death , by the glory of the father , according to the scripturs .

Hee ascended into heauen , and sytteth on the right hand of God the father almighty .

IF we sinne , we haue an i Iohn 2 aduocate with the father , euen Iesus Christ , the which is righteous , & he obteineth grace for our sinnes ,

From thence he shal come to Iudge the quicke , & the dead .

THe father iudgethe no Iohn . 5. man , but hath geuen ouer al Iudgement vnto the sonne .

I beleue in the holy ghost .

THe which is coequall Mat 24. ●5 God with the father and the sonne , the whiche is Act 2 procedyng .

The whiche is the spirite of knowledge , & wisdom , trueth & conforte , which the Iohn 14. worlde knoweth hym not nether can receyue hym

The catholicke Churche .

THat is to saye the congregacion 1 Cor ● or assemblie of faithfull is the churche of God gouerned by the holy ghoste , Christe is the hed .

The communyon of saints .

That is to saye : as many Iohn 10 Rom 8 as are sanctified , & gouerned by the holy ghoste are partakers of the kyngdome of goddes glory : throughe the merites of Christ . Where I am there Iohn 17 shall you be , saith Christe .

The forgeuenesse of sinnes .

Throughe him the Lorde Esay 15. pardoneth all sinnes .

The resurection of the body , and the life euerlastyng .

I B●leue that all mankynde Math 25 shal rise , both body , & soule , to receyue the Iudgement of Christe . Iohn 11

Saie●h Christe I am the resurrection and the life .

The conclusion .

I Beleue in God the father , Gene 1 who hath made me and all the world .

And in God the sonne : who hath redemed mee , and all mankynd .

ANd thirdly in God the Iohn 19 holy ghost : who hath , & doth sanctify mee , and all the ele●te people of God .

So I beleue the father is ful God ▪ of him selfe .

THe sonne is full God , of the father begotten

The holy ghost is full God , Act ● of the father , & of the sonne procedynge .

I saye not three Goddes : but one God almyghty .

Without beginnyng , and endyng .

THe maker , norisher , Esay 4● and gouernour of all , both in heauen , and earth

In whom I hope and beleue to be saued .

Glory be to the father and to the sonne &c.

An exhortacion vnto the Lordes supper .

AND the way to the Matth 28 supper is , too examyn our conscience , knowledgynge our selfe vnto God , repentynge our Iohn 14 former life , askyng mercy of god the father for Christs sake

And gladlye forgeue all Mat ● thine offenders .

And then kneelyng , or standyng , gyue credit vnto the word of God .

Saieth he the words that Iohn . 6 I spake are spirit & life Math 18 When you shall se the bread : behold it with your natural eyes , as said christ it is bread : but spiritually lifte vp your hartes into heauen , where Christ , god Act 1. and man is syttyng on the right hand of God .

God wil be worshiped in Iohn ● spirite , and truth .

Thankes .

O Father , I hartely Colo ● thanke thee , whiche haste geuen thy sonne to take vpon him our naturall bodye , whiche body was once offered vnto Iohn 1● thee vpon the Aulter the crosse for sinners , for their health , welth , & saluacion .

For whose sake father haue mercy vpon me .

When ye see the wyne beholde it with your natural eyes , as Christe saide it ▪ is wine

Thankes .

SAying , I thanke thee , deare father , that thou didst not spare thy sonne Iesus Christe , to shed his bloud vpon the aulter the crosse , for to washe awaye my sinnes : I beseche thee father , that the crucifieng of his body , & the shedynge of his bloud , may be meritorious to my saluacion .

Our father whiche arte in heauen ▪

Haue mercy vpon vs.

Our sauiour Iesu Christe , Act 2 God , and man whiche arte in heauen .

Haue mercy vpon vs.

Our comforter , the holye Act 2 ghoste .

Haue mercy vpon vs.

The prayer .

O Holy father , of heauen , I beseche thee for thy sonne Christs sake , haue mercy vppon mee , & vpon all people and forgeue vs all our sinnes .

And from hence forth geue thy holy Angell the charge of vs , to kepe our soules , and bodies blamelesse vnto the comming of thy sonne Iesus Christe , our sauiour , Amen .

Excepte ye eate the fleshe of the Iohn 6 sonne of man and drinke hys bloud , there is no life in you .

SPyrytually to eate the body of Christ , god & man , fleshe , bloud and bone , & to drinke his bloud : is , faithfully to beleue that the body of Christ was crucified , & bloud shed for our saluacion .

And to receyue the Lordes supper , euen for a token of this fayth , and saluacion in Christes merites , and shall euer declare Christes Luke . 22. death out of the scripture with thankes geuyng , vntil he come . But if yee i Cor 6. haue any other eatynge , it is playne Idolatry .
