With You

Lord Jesus Christ, to God and the Father. After which w said : Deo gratias. Thanks be to God. A prayer at the Epistle, O eternal God, who never ceasest to incite us, by the public ministry of thy Church, the warnings of Prophets, the teach- ings of Apostles, and the writings of holy men, to the love and worship of thy Name, and to defend us from the snares of the world, the flesh, and the devil; grant that we may always gladly embrace all wholesome doctrine and instruction, and seriously endeavour to regulate our life and conduct in ac- cordance with the same. And lest it should turn to our greater condemnation to have known, by so many teachers and preachers, the way of truth, which is thy holy will, and not to have followed it, give us grace and strength, that what wo have so often heard, and know to be our duty, we may be able faithfully to perform. Amen
