K V Morning Prayer. 5 ^r ThiSt and the next foUoiving Collect, to be used instead of the First Collect for Morning Prayer, OLORD, most good and powerful, we, Thy sinful people, here assembled before Thee, acknowledge it to be of Thine unspeakable mercy, that for our manifold and heinous provocations, we are not utterly consumed, and given over for a prey to the pestilence or other scourge of Thine avenging hand. We confess, with sorrow and con- fusion, our long unfruitfulness, under the means of grace, the light of Thy Gospel, and the many wonderful deliverances, which Thou, in Thy great goodness, hast vouchsafed unto us. O Lord, shouldst Thou enter into judgement with us for our sins, for our profaneness and infidelity, our heresies and schisms, our exclusive pursuit of the business, or inor- dinate love, of the pleasures of the world, and our other numberless offences. Thou mightest justly inflict upon us the severity of Thy wrath, and visit us with the sufferings which have been experienced in other lands, and which we have no less deserved. But there is mercy with Thee, therefore shalt Thou be feared : Thou art the Lord God, tender and full of compassion, not willing that any should perish, but that all should repent and live. Look down, therefore, we beseech Thee, with an eye of pity, and loving kindness, upon Thy servants, who, with contrite hearts, here bewail their transgressions, and their wretchedness. Let us, in this time of trouble, still enjoy the light of Thy coun- tenance, and the blessing of Thy bountiful hand ; and so work upon our hearts and minds, by the influences of Thy Holy Spirit, that being turned from the error of our ways, $ Morning Prayer. and created to newness of life, we may w^lk before Thee, in righteousness and holiness, in this world, and inherit thine everlasting Kingdom, in that which is to come, through the merits of Jesus Christ, our only mediator, and advocate. Amen. O Almighty God, who rulest over all tho Nations of the Earth, and on whose gracious Providence they depend evermore for preservation and prosperity; extend, we be- seech Thee, Thine accustomed goodness to the people of these Provinces ; who, looking up to Thee, as the Author of all Blessings, and their sure Safeguard and mighty De- liverer in all dangers and difficulties, do now implore Thy watchful care and protection. Vouchsafe to guide us con- tinually with Thy counsel, to strengthen us with Thy power- ful arm, to avert from us Thy Judgments which are abroad in the Earth :— But if, in Thy wisdom. Thou hast ordained that they should visit us, give us grace that we may humbly and patiently submit to Thy correction, and, after having been exercised thereby, may bring forth the peaceable fruits of righteousness, to the praise and glory of Thy name, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen, ^ Then shall Mow the Second and Third Collects at Morning rrayer, and after these the Litany. ^ Jmmediaiely before the General Thanksgiving, the people skaU say this that follouxth, after the Minister : TURN Thou us, O good Lord, and so shall we be turned.

For Thou art a merciful God, full of compassion, long suffering, and of great pity. Thou sparest, when w« deserve punishment; and, in Thy wrath, Thou thinkest upon Mercy. Spare Thy People, good Lord, spare them, and let not Thine heritage be brought to confusion Hear us, O Lord, for Thy mercy is great, and after the multitude of Thy mercies look upon us, through the merits and me- diation of Thy blessed Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

AND unto the Angel of the Church of the Laodiceans, write ; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God ; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot : I would thou wert cold or hot. So then, because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of niy mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing ; and knowest not that thou art wretched and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou 'M.. 8 The Communion Service. mayest be rich; nnd wb*»tp raiment, that thou tnayest bo clothed, dnd that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear ; and annoint thine eyes with eye-salve, that thou mayest see.

THERE were present at that season some that told him of the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galileans were sinners above all the Galileans, because they suffered these things t I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem t I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. % Then shall follow the Nicene Creed : arid after that the Sermon.
