daily meet with; We therefore humbly beseech Thee to have Compassion upon our Infirmities, and to give us the constant Assistance of thy Holy Spirit; that we may be effectually restrained from Sin, and excited to our Duty. And when thou seest us giving way to any Temptation, suffer us not to be tempted above that we are able, but stretch out thy helping Hand to save and deliver us. Imprint upon our Hearts such a Dread of thy Judgments, and such a grateful Sense of thy goodness to us, as may make us both afraid and ashamed to offend Thee; and, above all, keep up in our Minds

Minds a lively Remembrance of that great Day, in which we must give a strict Account of our Thoughts, Words, and Actions, and, according to the Works done in the Body, be eternally rewarded or punished by Him, whom thou hast appointed Judge of Quick and Dead, thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

For Grace to guide and keep us

the following Day.

IN

N particular, that we may

then be able to give Account of this Day; grant us Grace to have Thee and thy Laws before our Eyes, that we may walk in it according to thy Will, with Watchfulness and Circumspection.

Circumspection. Keep us sober and temperate in our Meats and Drinks, and diligent in the several Callings and Professions which thy Providence hath appointed us. Grant us Patience under any Affliction Thou shalt see fit to lay upon us, and Minds always contented with our present Condition. Give us Grace to be just and upright in all our Dealings, quiet and peaceable among our Neighbours, full of Compassion towards the Needy and Afflicted, and ever ready to do Good to all Men, according to the Abilities and Opportunities which thou shalt give us : That so walking faithfully before

Thee

Thee all our Days, and being found watching whenever our appointed Time shall come, we may, from a Life of Righteousness, be translated to a Life of Glory, through the Merits and Mediation of Jesus Christ our only Saviour and Redeemer. Amen.
