DIEV ET MON DROIT HONI SOIT QVI MAL Y PENSE royal blazon or coat of arms LONDON, Printed by Charles Bill and the Executrix of Thomas Newcomb deceased; Printers to the King and Queens most Excellent Majesties. 1694. PRAYERS To be used During the Queen's Sickness, in the Cities of London and Westminster. ¶ This Prayer shall be used, when the Litany is not said, after the Prayer for the King and Queen's Majesties; when it is said, then after the Collect for the Day. O Father of Mercies, and God of all Comfort, our only help in time of need; We fly unto thee for secure in behalf of thy Servant our Sovereign Lady the Queen, lying now under thy hand on the bed of Sickness. Comfort her with thy Salvation, support her with thy holy Spirit, enable her to bear whatsoever thou shalt lay upon her, with Patience and Resignation to thy Will. Give a Blessing to the Means used for her Recovery, Restore her to her former Health in thy good time, and continue her long, together with his Sacred Majesty, to be the blessed Instruments of advancing thy Glory, and establishing true Religion, and Righteousness, and Peace in these Kingdoms. We confess that, by our manifold sins, we have deserved the severest of thy judgements; yet we humbly beseech thee, upon our true Repentance, to pardon all our Offences, to turn away thy Anger from us, and to hear the Prayers that we now offer up to thee: So we that are thy people and the sheep of thy pasture shall give thee Thanks for ever, and will always be showing forth thy Praise from generation to generation, through jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. ¶ When the Litany is not said, these following Collects, taken out of the Office of the Visitation of the Sick, shall be used after the Prayer for All Conditions of Men. O Lord, look down from heaven, behold, visit and relieve thy Servant, and our most gracious Sovereign Lady the Queen; Look upon her with the eyes of thy Mercy, give her Comfort, and sure Confidence in thee, defend her from the danger of the enemy, and keep her in perpetual Peace and Safety, through jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. HEar us, Almighty and most merciful God and Saviour; Extend thy accustomed goodness to this thy Servant who is grieved with Sickness. Sanctify, we beseech thee, this thy fatherly Correction to her; that the sense of her weakness may add strength to her Faith, and seriousness to her Repentance. That if it shall be thy good pleasure to restore her to her former Health, she may lead the residue of her Life at th● fear, and to thy glory: or else give her grace so to take th● Visitation, that after this painful life ended, she may dwell with thee in life everlasting, through jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. ¶ When the Litany is said, than these two Collects shall be used after the Prayer, We humbly beseech thee, O Father, etc. FINIS.
