And Righteousness All the Days of Our Lives, „

O Lord. Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world. Graciously hear us, O Lord. Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world. Have mercy on us. Glory be to the Father, &c. As it was in the beginning , <Sf c. Let us pray.

O adorable Lord, in Three distinct and equal Persons One God, who requirest the homage of our reason by the belief of mysteries which are above our understanding, and that of our will by the observance of precepts which are mortifying to our natural inclinations ; give us thy grace to perform this two- fold duty, and grant that we may never oppose our uncertain reasoning to thy infallible truth, nor deliberately transgress thy most high and holy commands. Thus continuing until death in entire subjection to thee, may we come at last to the clear and perfect enjoyment of thee. Who livest and reignest world without end. Amen
