 ALmighty God, who hast in all ages shown thy power and mercy in the miraculous and gracious deliverances of thy Church, and in the protection of righteous and religious Kings and States, professing thy holy and eternal Truth, from the wicked conspiracies, and malicious practices of all the enemies thereof; We yield thee our unfeigned thanks and praise, for the wonderful and mighty deliverance of out far gracious Sovereign King James, the Queen, the Prince, and all the Royal Branches, with the Nobility, Clergy, and Commons of this Realm, then assembled in Parliament, by Popish treachery appointed as sheep to the slaughter, in a most barbarous and savage manner, beyond the examples of former ages. From this unnatural conspiracy, not our merit, but thy mercy; not our foresight, but thy providence delivered us: And therefore not unto us, O Lord, not unto us; but unto thy Name be ascribed all honour and glory, in all Churches of the Saints, from generation to generation, through jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. O Lord; who didst this day discover the wares of death that were laid for us, and didst wonderfully deliver us from the same; Be thou still our mighty Protector, and scatter our enemies that delight in blood. Infatuate and defeat their counsels, abate their pride, assuage their malice, and confound their devices. Strengthen the hands of our gracious. King James, and all that are put in authority under him, with judgement and justice, to cut off all such workers of iniquity, as turn Religion into Rebellion, and Faith into Faction; that they may never prevail against us, or triumph in the ruin of thy Church among us: But that our gracious Sovereigh and his Realms, being preserved in thy true Religion; and by thy merciful goodness protected in the same, we may all duly serve thee, and give thee thanks in thy holy congregation, through jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.  
¶ In the end of the Litany (which shall always this day be used) after the Collect (We humbly beseech thee, O Father, etc.) shall this be said which followeth. 
 ALmighty God, and heavenly Father, who of thy gracious providence and tender mercy towards us, didst prevent the malice and imoginations of our enemies, by discovering and confounding their horrible and wicked enterprise, plotted and intended this day to be executed against the King, and the whose State of this Realm, for the subverston of the Government, and Religion established amongst us; We most humbly praise and magnify thy glorious Name for this thine infinite gracious goodness towards us. We confess, it was thy mercy, thy mercy alone, that we were not then consumed. For our sins cried to heaven against us; and our iniquities justly called for vengeance upon us. But thou hast not dealt with us after our sins, nor rewarded us after our iniquities; nor given us over, as we deserved, to be a prey to our enemies; but didst in mercy deliver us from their malice, and preserve us from death and destruction. Let the Consideration of this thy goodness, O Lord, work in us true repentance, that iniquity may not be our ruin. And increase in us more and more a lively faith, and fruitful love in all holy obedience, that thou mayest continue thy favour, with the light of thy Gospel to us and our posterity for evermore; and that for thy dear Sons sake, jesus Christ our only Mediator and Advocate. Amen.  
¶ In the Communion-Service, instead of the Collect for the day; shall this which followeth be used. ETernal God, and our most mighty Prosector, we thy unworthy servants do humbly present ourselves before thy Majesty, acknowledging thy power, wisoom, and goodness in preserving the King, and the three Estares of this Realm assembled in Parliament, from the destruction this day intended against them. Make us, we beseech thee, truly thankful for this thy great mercy towards us. Protect and defend our Sovereign Lord the King, and all the Royal Family, from all Treasons and Conspiracies: Preserve them in thy faith, fear, and love; prosper his Reign with long happiness here on earth; and crown him with everlasting glory hereafter in the kingdom of heaven; through jesus Christ our only Saviour and Redeemer. Amen. 
The Epistle. Rom. 13.1. LEt every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be, are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist, shall receive to themselves damnation. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power: do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the Minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doth evil. Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. For, for this cause pay you tribute also: for they are Gods Ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. Render therefore to all their deuce; tribute to whom tribute is due, custom to whom custom, fear to whom fear, honour to whom honour.  
The Gospel. S. Matth. 27.1. WHen the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against jesus to put him to death. And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor. Then judas which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repent himself and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and eiders, saying, I have sinned, in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that. And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself. And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood. And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in. Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood unto this day. Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by jeremy the prophet, saying. And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value; and gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.   
¶ After the Creed, if there be no Sermon, shall be read one of six Homilies against Rebellion.  
¶ This sentence is to be read at the Offertory. 
 WHatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them; for this is the law and the prophets. S. Matth. 7.12.
