LONDON, Printed for M. T. 1686. A Prayer before Mass. O Most clement Father of mercy: who hast bestowed not only once thy dearly beloved Son to die upon the Cross for Man's Redemption, but wouldst that this Oblation so infinitely acceptable unto thee, should daily be renewed in thy Church, to increase in us the fruit thereof: Grant us, we beseech thee, so attentively, and reverently to be present at this so adorable a mystery of thy Piety, that we may be able to obtain the participation thereof.

I Will enter unto the Altar of God. C. Unto God who rejoices my youthful Age P. Judge me, O God, and discern my Cause from an unholy Nation: From an unjust and guileful man deliver me. C. For thou art God my strength, why hast thou cast me off, and why do I walk sad whilst the Enemy afflicts me? P. Send out thy light, and thy truth, they have led me out and brought me to thy holy Mountain, and to thy Tabernacles. C. And I will go unto the Altar of God, unto God, who rejoices my youthful Age. P. I will confess unto thee, O God, my God in a harp: why art thou sad my Soul, and why dost thou trouble me? C. Hope in God for I will yet confess unto him, the health of Countenance and my God. P. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. C. As it was in the beginning, and now, and ever, and world without end, Amen. P. I will go unto the Altar of God. C. Unto God who rejoices my youthful age. P. Our help is in the name of God. C. Who made Heaven and Earth. At the Confiteor. O My sweet Saviour, seeing it was Sin which made thee take our Flesh upon thee, and suffer a more painful and shameful death, I here humbly crave thee pardon for having been cause of thy bitter Passion by my sinful Life past. I confess my fault unto thee, O Lord, from the bottom of my heart and being extremely sorry for it, purely for the dishonour done unto thee thereby, make here at the foot of thy sacred Altar a firm resolution to die rather rhen offend thee mortally again. No, no dear Saviour, I will strike no more nails into thy Hands by the Sins of my uncivil uncharitable and pricking words, I will pierce no more thy sacred side and heart with the wickedness of my thoughts, heart and mind. C. Almighty God have mercy on thee, and pardoning thy Sins, bring thee to everlasting Life. P. Amen. C. I confess unto almig'ty God, to the blessed Virgin Mary, to the B. Archangel, S. Michael, to the B.S. John Baptist, to the holy Apostles S. Peter, and S. Paul, to all the Saints, and to you Father, for that I have sinned exceedingly, in thought, word and deed, through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault. Therefore I beseech the blessed Virgin Mary, the blessed Archangel S. Michael, the blessed S. John Bapt. the holy Apostles S. Peter, and S. Paul, all the Saints, and you Father to pray for me to our Lord God. P. Almighty God have mercy on you, and pardoning your sins, bring you to everlasting life. C. Amen. P. The almighty and merciful Lord grant you Pardon, absolution, and remission of your sins. C. Amen. P. O God thou being reconciled unto us wilt give us life. C. And thy people will rejoice in thee. P. Show forth unto us O Lord thy mercy. C. And give unto us thy salvation. P. O Lord hear my prayer. C. And let my cry come unto thee. P. Our Lord be with you. C. And with thy Spirit. Introite. GIve me grace, O Lord, to come unto this holy Sacrifice with the same fervour and devotion that the good Shepherds had when they went to Bethlehem with diligence, to adore thee in the Manger, or with the same Fervour that the three Kings had who came out of the East to adore thee in the Stable. It is most fitting, O Lord, that all Creatures should adore thee daily, and if the good Shepherds went to adore thee at midnight, I may well do it in the morning, if the three Kings went thirteen days journey only to adore thee in the Stable, I may well go every day unto the Church to adore thee upon the Altar, and there offer unto thee (as I now do) my heart, my mouth, my hands, my memory, understanding and will, my soul, body and all my affections. And seeing, O Lord, thou wast born to redeem us from Sin, and to have mercy on us, give me leave sweet Saviour to challenge a part of thy divine Mercy, and to say unto thee with a pious Confidence. Kyrie Eleison. P. Lord have mercy upon us. C. Lord have mercy upon us. P. Lord have mercy upon us. C. Christ have mercy upon us. P. Christ have mercy upon us. C. Christ have mercy upon us. P. Lord have mercy upon us. C. Lord have mercy upon us. P. Lord have mercy upon us. Gloria in Excelsis GLory be to God on high, and on Earth, Peace to men of good Will. We praise thee, we bless thee, we adore thee, we give thee thanks for thy great Glory, O Lord God heavenly King, God the Father Almighty. O God the only begotten Son Jesus Christ, O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father that takest away the sins of the People, receive our Prayer. Thou that sittest at the right hand of God the Father, have mercy upon us. For thou only art holy, thou only art the Lord, thou only, O Jesus Christ, with the holy Ghost, art most high in the Glory of God the Father, Amen. Dominus vobiscum. P. Our Lord be with you. C. And with thy spirit. P. Let us pray. Prayers or Presentation in the Temple. O Lord we humbly beseech thy divine Majesty, to hear these prayers of the Priest for us, and by the merits of thy most dear Son, to pour down upon us those graces and blessings, which thou knowest to be most necessary for our Soul's health, Grant us grace, O Lord, to love thee above all things, to do all our actions purely for thy honour and glory; to hate the Pleasures of this World, and its Vanities: to live chaste and virtuous Lives: to give good Examples to others; to pardon and love our Enemies, and so to pass through this temporal Life, that we lose not eternal Life. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, thy Son, who lives and reigns with the unity of the Holy Ghost, world without end. C. Amen. Epistle. REad the Epistle in English (with the leave of thy Ghostly Father) out of the Rheims Testament. But read it with great reverence, as a letter brought unto thee from S. Peter, or S. Paul in Heaven, by the hands of some Angel: and choose out the most pious Sentences of it to ruminate upon all that day. In the end say. C. God be thanked. Gradual. O Lord how sweet are these words of this Epistle to my Ears, above all Music in the World! Let thy Voice and the Words of thy Apostles always sound in my ears. P. Our Lord be with you. C. And with thy Spirit. P. The beginning of the Gospel according to S. Matthew, or (S. Mark, Luke, or John.) C. Glory be to thee, O Lord. Gospel. REad the Gospel in the Rheims Testament, with leave, stand up, to show that thou wilt stand steadfastly in the Faith of the Gospel and Catholic Church. Ponder well the words of the Gospel, seeing they either are our Saviour's one words, or else speak of some rare Action of our Saviour, worthy of thy attention, and imitation. In the end say. C. Praise be to thee, O Lord. Creed. P. I believe in one God the Father Almighty, maker of Heaven and Earth, and of all things visible, and invisible: and in our Lord Jesus Christ the only begotten Son of God, born of his Father before all Worlds, God of God, Light of Light, true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial to the Father, by whom all things were made, who for us Men, and for our Salvation came down from Heaven, and was incarnated by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, and was made Man: was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate, suffered, and was buried, and the third day he arose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended into Heaven, and sits on the right hand of the Father. And he shall me again with glory to judge both the quick and the dead, of whose Kingdom there shall be no end. And in the Holy Ghost, the Lord, and life giver, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is adored, and glorified, who spoke by the Prophets. And one Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the remission of sins. And I expect the Resurrection of the dead, and life of the World to come, Amen. P. Our Lord be with you. C. And with thy Spirit. The second Part from the Offertory to the Consecration. Offertory. O Lord, I humbly and firmly believe all these articles of our holy Faith, and not only these, but all the other also, which Holy Church propose; to us to be believed; and am prepared in mind, and most willing to endure loss of lands, fortunes, and of life itself, rather than deny the least point of the Catholic Faith. O heavenly Father, I offer unto thee, together with the Priest, the immaculate Sacrifice for my sins, and the sins of the whole World. Accept, I beseech thee, of this my offering, and by the virtue of this holy Sacrifice; apply unto us, O Lord the merits and value of the great Sacrifice of the Cross, which thy dear Son offered unto thee for us; that being freed from Sin, we may serve thee more worthily. Mingle, O my sweet Saviour, (as thou hadst Water and Blood mingled together in thy sacred side) water with my wine: that is, temper, O Lord, my prosperity, and adversity so together, that I neither be puffed up with prosperity, nor oppressed with adversity. I offer unto thee, O Lord, this holy offering of the Chalice; and together with it, I offer unto thy divine honour and glory, my life, my thoughts, and deeds: desiring that they may all be spent this day, and all the days of my life, in thy holy service, the advancement of thy name, and the edifying of others. Grant me grace, O Lord, I beseech thee, to wash my hands amongst Innocent men; that is, to seek out and delight in innocent, and civil Company, to converse with virtuous people; to detest and wash my hands of those who offend thee in uncil Actions, unclean Discourse, uncharitable Detractions. I am too much a Christian to delight in the company of these WHO DENY THEE BY THEIR DEEDS. I will be as far from them, as they are far from virtue. Thou washedst me once, O Lord, in Baptism from original Sin, WASH ME YET MORE AND MORE, even from actual Sin itself too, that being purged from all Sin, I may render unto thee a more pure and perfect service. Orate Fratres. P. Pray Brethren. C. Our Lord, receive this Sacrifice from thy hands, to the praise and glory of his Name, to our profit also, and to the profit of his Catholic Church. P. Amen. Be merciful, I beseech thee. O Lord, unto us poor sinners. Judge us not according to thy Justice, but according to thy mercy. I confess we have failed shamefully, yet consider thy Son is our Advocate, we beg confidently. Grant then, O Lord, that we may live virtuously in this World, and be saved in the next. Have mercy also, I beseech thee, upon our Enemies; turn from them all harm and losses, and give us grace to love them sincerely, visit them kindly, speak of them charitably; that so we may become Children of thee, our heavenly Father; and having imitated thee here below, reign with thee in heaven. P. World without end. C. Amen. P. Our Lord be with you. C. And with thy spirit. P. Lift up thy heart. C. We have to God. P. Let us give thanks to our Lord God. C. It's meet and sitting. I confess, O Lord, it's fitting, and meet that we should always, and in all places give thee thanks, and praise thy name, seeing we were created only to succeed in the places of the fallen Angels, and to inherit their Office, which was to praise thee. I beseech thee then, O Lord, give us grace to imitate the holy Angels in purity of life, and promptness in executing thy holy will. Grant us, dear Father, such circumspection in our words, that we may never profane with idle, and lewd speeches, our mouths, which were created to sing with the holy Angels in heaven that sacred and eternal Hymn, Holy, Holy, Holy. Almighty, and merciful Lord, I beseech thee, receive his Holy Sacrifice, which I offer here together with the Priest, for the Necessities of the Holy Catholic Church, which, I beseech thee so to prosper and direct in this age of Errors, that she may reduce all misbelievers into the way of Verity, and all Believers into the way of Piety, and Salvation. I offer it also, O Lord, for the good of our Holy Father P. N. and our most reverend Bishop N. and all other Superiors, and Pastors, and seeing thy dear Son assured us, that whosoever hears them, hears him, and whosoever contemns them, contemns him. I beseech thee, O Lord, take from us all conrempt of these thy Holy substitutes; and grant us grace so to follow their directions here below, that we may enjoy in the next World the Society of our dear Saviour, the Bishop of our Souls. MEMENTO. I. BE mindful, I beseech thee, O Lord, of thy servants. and of all faithful believers, Grant all Catholics grace to abstain from sinful, and scandalous courses. As their Religion is holy, so grant that their lives may be holy too. Give them grace often to remember for what end they are here in this World: that it is only to work their Salvation; not to live at ease, follow Pleasures, Pastimes, Company, or to go bravely apparelled. Put them often in mind, of what Head they are Members; how unseemly a thing it is to have a good Lord, and yet to be bad Servants, to believe in a crucified God, and yet to murmur at Crosses; to be baptised as Christians, and yet to live as Heathens; to have promised in Baptism to forsake the vain Pomp and Glory of the World, and yet to thirst after nothing but the Vanities of the World: Grant them often to descend into themselves by pious Thoughts, and reflect daily upon these words of the holy Scripture, that, the broad way leadeth to Hell, that no man can serve two Masters, God and the World: that, the bad tree, cannot bring forth good fruit. Send them, O Lord, true and zealous Pastors, who may exhort them, Not to trust in the uncertainty of riches: not to conform themselves to this wicked World: not to be solicitous what they wear; but rather, To do the true fruits of Penance: to enter into the narrow Gate: to affect those things which are of Edification: to be called in modest Apparel: to abstain from all appearance of Evil, and to keep themselves unspotted from this World. The hands over the Chalice. GIve me leave, O merciful Saviour, in the acknowledgement of the greatest of thy favours, to exercise here the greatest of all Christian Virtues, to wit, FAITH, HOPE, and CHARITY. The third part from the Consecration to the Consummation. Elevation. I Believe then firmly, O my sweet Saviour, that after the Words of Consecration thou art really here present upon the Altar, and in the hands of the priest, and because thou, who art almighty and truth itself, hast said THIS IS MY BODY, THIS IS MY BLOOD. I humbly confess it to be they true Body, and Blood, and as humbly I adore it. And seeing, dear JESUS, thou offeredst thyself to thy Father for me, in recompense of this thy great Favour, I offer unto thee my Body, and Blood, and my very soul itself, as a Sacrifice to thy divine Honout; and renew here my resolutions of living faithful to thy divine Service, and of dying rather than I will commit a mortal sin willingly. I hope sweet Saviour. thou wilt not deny me thy assistance, and grace to perform these Resolutions. Thou who hast given for me here thy BODY, and BLOOD, wilt not refuse me the rest, to wit, pardon of my sins, and grace to serve thee. And thou, O Father, of my sweet Saviour, I beseech thee remember the bitter sufferings of thy beloved Son. Look down upon his Blood offered here unto thee, and remember, O Lord, the blood offered upon the Cross, by thee when thou wast reconciled unto us. Thou promisedst anciently, O Lord, that looking upon the Rainbow, thou wouldst remember the Covenant made betwixt thee and mankind, and never drown the World again by Water: and canst thou look down upon the Blood of thy dear Son, offered here unto thee in Sacrifice, and not remember the great Covenant, and League which thou mad'st with us in the death of thy dear Son. I beg of thee then, O Lord, by the Merits of thy Son's death, by his holy name JESUS (and all obtaining name with thee) that thou wouldst vouchsafe to grant us thy holy Grace, and the gift of perseverance to persevere finally in it. Memento. II. GRant also, O Lord, that the infinite Merits of thy Son's Passion, may be extended unto the Church suffrant in Purgatory: and that one drop of that precious Blood may free from the pains of Purgatory, the Souls of N.N. that they may pass speedily from the Church suffrant, unto the Church triumphant, and there praise thee for ever. And seeing, O Lord, thou canst not look upon this holy Sacrifice without remembering thy old Mercies: I humbly beg of thee, that thou wouldst by this propitiatory Sacrifice have mercy on us poor sinners, of whom I am the chiefest, and grant us grace, to be hearty sorrowful for our sins past, purely for thy Love sake; and to make a firm resolution to die rather than commit them again: as also to confess them to our Ghostly Father at the first Opportunity. Short Elevation. BUT because, O Lord, no actions are meritorious in thy sight which are not done to thy honour, and glory. I here dedicated to thy Honour and Glory all my Actions, Words, and Thoughts, desiring to serve thee purely, that at last I may live with thee. P. World without end. C. Amen. P. Let us Pray. Being admonished by wholesome precepts, and taught by divine Institution, we dare confidently say: Our Father, which art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy Kingdom come, thy Will be done in Earth, as it is in Heaven: give us this day our daily Bread, and forgive us our Trespasses, as we forgive others their Trespasses against us. And lead us not into Temptation. C. But deliver us from evil. P. Amen. ‛ Thou hast done all things well, O Lord, All things which thou hast made are very good. Sin only, which is nothing, and which thou knowest not, is none of thy Invention, but the Devils: and therefore is Evil, and the only true Evil. Free us but, O Lord, from this Evil, and no other Evil can hurt us. This is the mother-evil, the evil of evils, the cause of Death, of Sickness, of Misery, of Poverty. No adversity can domineer over us, if no iniquity domineer in us. Thou, O Lord, who art the Author of life, canst only free us from this Author of death. Free us then, I beseech thee, O Lord, from the evil of Sin, that we may never die eternally, but live, and praise thee. P. World without end. C. Amen. P. The peace of our Lord be always with you. C. And with thy spirit. Agnus Dei. P. Lamb of God who takest away the Sins of the World: have mercy upon us. Lamb of God who takest away the Sins of the World, hear us. Lamb of God who takest away the Sins of the World, Grant us peace. Most Merciful and sweet Saviour, seeing thou art the Mediator betwixt God and Man: the prince of Peace: who pacifyes all things in Heaven, and Earth: pacify, I beseech thee, thy Father, angry against us Sinners. Make also, I beseech thee, our peace with our Adversary upon Earth. Our Adversary, O Lord, is thy Law, it resists our appetites, gainsays our Desires, crosses our Wills. When we desire, and covet unlawful things, thy Law opposes us, saying: Thou shalt not covet thy Neighbour's Goods: thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, etc. And becomes our Adversary. But seeing, O Lord, it is for our good that thy Law opposes us; and that thy Law is holy and immaculate. Inspire, I beseech thee into our rebellious Wills, a pompt Obedience unto thy sacred Commandments, and grant us grace; to agree with this our Adversary quickly whiles we are in the way with him; lest our Adversary deliver us to the Judge, and the Judge deliver us to the Officer, and we be cast into Prison. In fine, grant Peace, I beseech thee, amongst Christian Princes, and faithful Believers; that being in perfect Charity with one another, we may the more worthily come unto the sacred Communion. Domine non sum dignus. P. O Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldst enter under my Roof, but speak the word only, and my Soul shall be cured. O Lord, I am not worthy, etc. O Lord, I am not worthy, etc. The fourth part from the Communion to the end. Consummation. THough I am not worthy, O my sweet Saviour, to receive thee really, as the Priest here doth: yet I have a longing desire to receive thee into my Soul, by Faith, Love, and Devotion. But before I do it, behold me here, O Lord, extremely sorrowful. for all my Sins past, purely for thy love's sake, with a firm resolution to correct them, and confess them. Come, then, come my sweet Saviour into my Soul, by thy holy Presence, grace, and Divinity; and dwell there for ever. But as thou passest, O Lord, into my Soul through my Body, I beseech thee, sanctify also my whole Body, and make it a fit Temple for the Holy Ghost. Banish from it, O Lord, all unlawful Motions, and Desires: purge it from all rust, and dust of worldly Vanities: cleanse it from all corruption of Vices: And as at thy entering into Egypt in thy tender Infancy, when thou fleddest the Persecution of Herod, all the Statues there of false Gods fell to the Ground, and were broken. so grant, I beseech thee, O Lord, that at thy entering into my Body, and Soul, all my Vices and Imperfections may vanish, and give place to thee. I confess, my Body is but too homely a house to lodge so great a People in; but thou who refusest not anciently to lodge in a Srable, wilt not refuse to enter into my house. I am not ignorant how great a sinner I have been, yet I remember also thou refuest not to enter into the house of the Princ of Publicans, & a prime sinner Zacheus. Enter then, O Lord, into my House as into the House of another Zacheus; upon Condition that thou dost but give a blessing unto my soul, as thou didst unto the House of Zacheus; and say unto me as thou saidst to him: This day Salvation is wrought unto this House. What shall I give to thee, O Lord, for all the favours which thou hast done unto me? Behold, sweet Saviour, seeing thou hast done me the favour to enter into my House, I here offer unto thee the doors and keys thereof, to wit, my five Senses, I consecrate therefore unto thee henceforth my eyes, and purpose to keep them chaste and innocent. I will never any more let them gaze curiously, and freely upon dangerous and tempting Objects, nor let them wander distractedly in Churches, and in time of Prayer. Henceforth also I consecrate unto thee my tongue, and resolve never to employ it in swearing, cursing, backbiting, unclean, and lewd jests, or hidden knavish speeches. And seeing it is my tongue by which I receive, and convey into my stomach the blessed Sacrament of the Altar in the Holy Communion, that tongue that had been so happily employed, and so honoured by God, shall never be employed again in Sin, and be dipped in my Neighbour's Blood by detraction. In fine, O Lord, I consecrate my whole Body unto thee, as a sacred place dedicated to thy Divine Majesty, and which I purpose firmly never to defile with any sin whatsoever. P. Our Lord be with you. C. And with thy Spirit. P. Let us pray. I beseech thee, gracious Lord, to grant me this request, that what here I have promised by words, I may always perform by my deeds. Through our Lord JESUS CHRIST thy Son, who lives, and reigns, with thee in the bnity of the Holy Ghost. P. World without end. C. Amen. P. Our Lord be with you. C. And with thy Spirit. P. Go, the Mass is said. C. Thanks be to God. P. Almingty God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, bless and keep you. C. Amen. P. Our Lord be with you. C. And with thy spirit. P. The beginning of the holy Gospel according to St. John. C. Glory be to God. The Gospel of St. John. IN the beginning was the word, and the word was with God, and God was the word. This was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him, and without him was made nothing. That which was made in him was life, and the life was the light of men, and the light shines in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. There was a man, sent from God, whose name was John. This man came for testimony, to give testimony of the light, that all might believe through him. He was not the light, but to give testimony of the light. It was the true light which lightness every man that comes into this world. He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came into his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, he gave them power to be made the Sons of God, to those that believe in his name. Who not of Blood, nor of the will of the Flesh, nor of the will of Man, but of God are born. AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelled in us, (and we saw the Glory of him, glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father) full of grace and Verity. C. Thanks be to God. A Prayer to be said after Mass. I Render to thee, O sacred Trinity, most humble thanks, for vouchsafeing me the gracious Favour to assist at this divine Sacrifice of the Mass: whereof so many are deprived, who would have made much better use of it. I humbly crave Pardon, most loving and merciful God, for all the distractions, irreverences, and dissipasions of my wand'ring Spirit, committed in the time thereof: And for my dear Saviour's sake, most humbly beseech thee, that those infinite Merits of his bitter Passion, and most precious Blood shed for my redemption, and sacrificed to thee in remission of the sins of the World, may render me worthy to be made partaker of those divine and adorable Holy Mysteries, here so truly represented in this most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and that with final repentance I may die in thy grace, Amen. An humble Adoration to our Blessed Lord Jesus in the Holy Sacrament of his precious Body. O My most Glorious Lord God, and Saviour CHRIST JESUS, true god, and true Man; most Holy, worthy, pure, and PRECIOUS SACRIFICE of the most high God; living Bread, and source of Eternal Life; with all my Heart, Soul, Forces, and Affections, I humbly worship, and adore thy SOVEREIGN MAJESTY, in this Divine SACRAMENT, with a most earnest desire, an intention, to repair, if I could possibly, all the Irreverences, Profanations, Dishonours, and Impieties, that have been committed 'gainst THEE, in this dreadful MYSTERY, most humbly prostrating myself before thy SACRED MAJESTY, here present, to adore thee, in supply, for all those that never have; nor peradventure never shall be so happy, as to honour, worship, and adore THEE; such as are all Heretics, Atheists, Blasphemers, Magicians, Jews, Turks. Idolaters, and all Infidels, wishing with all my heart, that I alone could as much honour, praise, glorify, and adore THEE, as they altogether would have done, if they had known and faithfully served THEE for all Eternity; and furthermore, from the bottom of my HEART, and with the most fervent affections of my SOUL, I desire to render thy DIVINE MAJESTY as many adorations, praises, and benedictions, as all the Devils and Damned Souls will utter Blasphemies for ever against THEE; and to sanctify this Adoration, and make it more pleasing to thy SACRED MAJESTY; I humbly unite it to tall those Adorations, fervent Affections, and Praises of the TRIUMPHANT, and MILITANT CHURCH, and all that the glorious VIRGIN MOTHER, and all thy Holy ANGELS, and SAINTS have done, do and ever shall render unto THEE, our most gracious, glorious, dear, sweet, and sovereign Lord, Eternally, Amen. A devout Salutation to our Blessed Saviour in the Holy Sacrament. ALL hail most sweet LORD JESUS CHRIST, eternal Word and Wisdom of the FATHER, Son of the BLESSED VIRGIN, Lamb of GOD, Saviour of the World, Sacred Host, the Word made flesh, fountain of Piety. All hail most sweet LORD JESUS CHRIST, praise of Angels, glory of Saints, Vision of Peace, Entire Deity, true Man, Flower, and Fruit of the BLESSED VIRGIN MOTHER All hail most sweet LORD JESUS CHRIST, splendour of thy Father, Prince of Peace, Gate of Heaven, living Bread, Child of the Virgin, Vessel of the Deity.

All hail most sweet LORD JESUS CHRIST; sweet Way, supreme Verity, our eternal Reward, true Charity, Fountain of Love, Peace, Sweetness, and Life Everlasting. All hail most sweet, most sacred, and precious Body of CHRIST JESUS which laid upon the Altar of the Cross for the World's Salvation, I believe with my Heart, and confess with my Mouth, to be a true Host, a holy, pure, and immaculate Host, and most pleasing to God; the Bread of Eternal Life, and Chalice of perpetual Salvation. I adore thee in Spirit, and truth, O PIOUS JESV, O SWEET JESV, O good and gracious LORD JESUS, be merciful to me I beseech THEE, and graciously grant, O my God, that as I see THEE here in the form of Bread; so I may happpily see THEE in Majesty and Glory securely, and joyfully, for ever and ever, Amen. A brief Prayer to obtain a happy Death. O Most sweet Lord JESUS, by the Merits of thy bitter Death, and Passion, thy sacred Wounds, and all the drops of thy most precious Blood, and by that bitter pain, and anguish thou didst endure, when thy holy Soul departed from thy precious Body, be merciful to me at the hour of my death, and deliver me from the Pains of Hell and Purgatory, and the power of the Devils, and admit me into the Fruition of thy Eternal Glory, Amen. PRAYERS For the KING, etc. PSALM XIX. OUR Lord hear thee in the day of Tribulation: the Name of the God of Jacob protect thee. Send he Aid to thee from the Holy Place: and from Zion defend he thee. Be he mindful of all thy Sacrifice: and be thy Holocaust made fat. Give he unto thee according to thy Heart: and confirm he all thy Counsel. We shall rejoice in thy Salvation, and in the Name of our God we shall be magnified. Our Lord accomplish all thy Petitions: Now have I known that our Lord has saved his Christ. He shall hear him from his Holy Heaven: the Salvation of his Right Hand is in Powers. These in Chariots, and these in Horses: but we will invocate in the Name of the Lord our God. They are bound, and have fallen: but we have risen and are set upright. Lord, save the KING, and hear us in the Day that we shall invocate thee. Glory be to the Father, etc. As it was in the beginning, etc. Verse. Lord, save JAMES our KING. Resp. And hear us in the day that we shall invocate thee. Let us Pray. WE beseech thee, Almighty God, that thy Servant JAMES our KING, who through thy Mercy, has undertaken the Government of the Kingdom; may likewise receive the Increase of all Virtues, wherewith being adorned, he may both avoid the Enormity of Sin, vanquish his Enemies, and by thy Grace attain Thee, who art the Way, Truth, and Life, Through Christ our Lord, Amen. A Prayer for the King, Queen, and Queen Dowager. To be added to the last Collect at the End of Mass. AND defend thy Servant, Innocent the Chief Bishop, JAMES our King, MARY our Queen, and Queen Catherine, together with ourselves, and all Christian People, from all adversity always, and in all Places: Grant Peace and Welfare in our Times; and preserve thy Church from all Wickedness. Through our Lord Jesus Christ thy Son, who lives and reigns God with Thee, in the Unity of the Holy Ghost, for evermore, Amen. PRECES PRO REGE. PSAL. XIX.

QVaesumus omnipotens Deus ut Famulus tuus Rex noster Jacobus, qui tua miseratione suscepit Regni Gubernacula Virtutum, etiam omnium percipiat incrementa quibus decenter ornatus & vitiorum monstra Devitare hostes superare, & ad te qui Via veritas & Vita es gratiosus Valeat pervenire per Christum Dominum Nostrum, Amen.
