Prayer shall be used,

ALMIGHTY God, who rulest all things in heaven
and earth, by whose power and unsearchable wisdom
the prosperity and adversity of nations work alike for the
general good of man, we humble ourselves before Thee, in
praise and thanksgiving : We acknowledge Thy providence,
and adore Thy mercies. When the wicked prevail, the heart
of the righteous man fainteth within him : but Thy purposes
are sure, and thy will is done. At Thy appointed time
Thou hast driven back with shame and confusion the invader
of many nations, the disturber of mankind. Accept, we
implore Thee, our praises and thanksgivings, for the signal
successes which Thou hast recently vouchsafed to His Ma-
jesty's arms, and to the arms of his Allies. Continue, we
pray Thee, Thy favour towards them ; strengthen their
efforts against the Common Enemy ; bind together their
counsels, as the counsels of one man ; in defeat uphold their
courage ; in victory put down their presumption ; in both,
pour out Thy blessings upon them, that under all the changes
^.nd tumults and distractions of war, they may be found
worthy of Thy protection. Grant this, O merciful God,
for the sake of Thy blessed Son, our Redeemer and Saviour,
Jesus Christ.

•E Then shall follow the Second and Third Collects at

Morning Prayer. f The

Morning Prayer.

1 The Prayer for The King.

OGOD who commandest us when we are in trouble to
open our hearts, and tell out our sorrows unto Thee
in prayer, and dost promise to listen with compassion to our
humble supplications, give us grace so to approach Thee that
we offend not in word or thought. Put away from us every
impatient imagination, prevent every unworthy petition. Let
not our prayers assume the language of complaint, nor our
sorrows the character of despair.

Upon Thee O God, and upon the multitude of Thy mer-
cies we repose our grief, as we rest our hope. Restore We
implore Thee our beloved Sovereign to his Family, and to his
People. And whether it shi^U seem fit to Thine unerring
wisdom presently to remove from us this great calamity with
which we are afflicted, or still to suspend it over us, dispose us,
urnder every dispensation of Thy will, patiently to adore Thy
inscrutable Providence, and to bless Thy Holy Name .or ever
and ever.

The&e Prayers and Supplications we humbly offer up to
the Throne of Grace, in the Name and through the Media-
tion of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amefi.

H The Prayer for The Prince Regent,

Highness George Prince of Wales, Regentof the United
Kingdom of Great Britain^ and Ireland Shed abundantly
Thy blessings upon Him. Enable Him so to execute the

high Authorities with which He is invested, that what he shall
do in the Name of our beloved Sovereign, may be done for
the good of His People, for the Honour and Security of Hk
Dominions, and for the maintenance of Thy true Religion*
Grant this O merciful God for Jesus Christ's sake Our Lord
and Saviour. Amen.

OAlmiglily God, Sovereign Disposer of all earthly events,
behold us here assembled, with united heurt and voice,
to pour forth our tribute of unfeigned praise and thankful-
ness, for the great and signal successes, with which the Arms
of our Sovereign, against our public enemios have of lute
been wonderfully blessed. In humble adoration of Thy over-
ruling Providence, we confess that, on every occasion, the
victory is entirely thine ; that the arm of man availeth nothing
without Thy permission ; tLat, solely through Thy gracious
aid, the counsels of the wise and the exertions of the brave
are crowned with a prosperous issue. With gvateful acknow-
ledgment of Thy unspeakable mercies, we leel ihat, as on
many other occasions, so on the present. Thy ai-m has
indeed been stretched out for our support, and thy merciful

kindness

kindness has blessed the forces of our Sovereign, with unex«
ampled triumphs, to the lasting security, as we devoutly trust,
of the nation to which we belong, and 6f these her Colonies ;
and to the maintenance of the great cause of justice against
wrongful tyranny, and unprovoked aggression. But while, hum-
bly prostrate before the throne of Thy sacred Majesty, we ex-
press in this public manner our gratitude with our lips, teach us,
O Lord, to feel it deeply in our hearts, and Still more, to
display it practically in our conduct Give us grace, we be-
seech Thee, to turn our present experience of Thy gradoofi
goodness to our lasting improvement. Enable us to derive
from it an encreased sense of our continual dependance upon
Thee, and of the obligation which we owe to Thee for all the
blessings we enjoy. Touch us with a lowly feeli ng of our own
unworthiness. Put away from us the unbecoming spirit of
malice towards our enemies, and of reliance on our own means
of strength. Dispose us to refer, as is our bounden duty, the
good which is dispensed to us, not to our own merits, but
entirely to Thy free and undeserved mercy : that so, as we
more experience, both in public and in private, the favour
and protection of Thy overruling Providence, we may ever
rise in our feelings of devout aflfection towards Thee, in zeal
for Thy glory, in reverence for Thy holy name, and in the
hearty unfeigned desire of obeying Thy comm&ndments*
These prayers and thanksgivings we humbly oflfer up to Thy
Divine Majesty, in the name and through the mediation of
our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.

^ After the Collect for the A'm^'', " Almighty God, whose
Kingdom, 8fc." the following, shall be used,

OI.ORD, our Governor, whose name is excellent in all
the earth, and whose glory is high above the heavens,
we. Thy humble Servants, beseech Thee mercifully to accept
the offering of our praises and thanksgivings for Thy man fold
and great blessings, with which Thou hast of late vouchsafed
to visit us : these blessings no righteousness of our own hath
merited ; nor hath our own prudence or strength procured :
and therefore, not unto ug, O Lord, not unto us, but to Thy
name be the praise ; to Thy power and wisdom, by which
alone we have been preserved, and to Thy bountiful and
gracious Pi ovidence, by which alone we prosper.

And grant to us. Lord, we beseech Thee, the spirit to use
Thy blessings, as we ought ; with devout gratitude to Thee,
our God ; with zeal for Thy glory, and submission to Thy
will, and a faithful adherence to the Gospel of Thy beloved
Son ; with obedience to our rulers for conscience sake, as the
ministers of Thee for good ; with moderation and humility ;
with justice and purity j with charity, and forbearance, and

brotherly love . Graft in our hearts the love of Thy name ;
increase in us true religion ; nourish us with all goodness ;
and of Thy great mercy keep us in the same ; that amid these
and all Thy blessings we may seek Thy glory and the increase
of Thy kingdom, through Jesus Christ our Lord ; to wnom
with Thee, O Father, and Fhee, O Holy Ghost, be blessing
and honour and glory and power, world without end. Amen.

The Epistle, Romans, XII. 9.

LET love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is
evil J cWave to that which is good. Be kmdly affec-
tioned one to another with brotherly love j in honour preferring
one another ; not slothful in business ; fervent in spirit ;
serving the Lord ; rejoicing in hope ; patient in tribulation ;
continuing instant in prayer ; distributing to the neecessity of
saints j given to hospitality. Bless them which j ersecute you :
bless, and curse not. Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and
weep with them that weep. Be of the same mind one toward
another. Mind not high things, but '•.ondescend to men of
low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. Recompense
to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of
all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peace-
ably with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves,
but rather give p'ace unto wrath : for it is written. Vengeance

hearty zeal for Thy honour and service. Cause our hearts to
be knit together in mutual brotherly affection, in attachment
to our established religion and laws, in dutiful obedience to
our Sovereign and to those who bear authority under him.
Endue us with a spirit of piety and devotion towards Thee,
of unfeigned reliance on the merits of Thy beloved Son, of
justice and temperance, of humility and charity, and of all
other graces which adorn the Christian character. And take,
we implore Thee, into Thy holy keeping the person of our
Sovereign: be Thou unto him a tower of Strength ; shield him
from all approach of evil. Guard with Thy protecting Provi-
dence those of our fellow subjects who are fighting their
country's battles in foreign lands, or in these Provinces : pre-
serve our fleets from the peril of the stormy winds ; protect
our soldiers from the dangers of the s^vord and the pestilence,

severe and horrible afflictions. Grant to them a speedy deli-

them the blesi^ings of tranquillity, happiness, andplenty.

We pray to Thee, O Lord, for strength, courage, and
prudence, to withstand our Enemies, listen with favour also
to our supplications for their good ; instil into them a love
of Thy holy name ; cause tliem to see their errors ; dispose
fthem to abstain from tyranny and wrong, and incline their
hearts to. that sincere desire of peace by which a speedy
termination may be put to the calamities of prolonged warfare.

These humble supplications we devoutly offer up at the
Throne of Thy Divine Majesty, in the name, and through
