 Prayers before Confession, 105 
 
 thee, purpose, thro* thy grace, to fly to this 
 sacrament for my remedy ; and in obedience 
 to thy divine ordinance, confess my sins to 
 thy servant, hoping; thereby, that, accordino^ 
 Is thou hast promised, I shall receive a fuU 
 and perfect absolution from all my sin^. 
 
 Give ro J grace therefore, O Lord, that as 
 of thy goodness thou hast inspired into my 
 heart this holy resolution, so I may with 
 due reverence, contrition and sincerity, ac- 
 complish what I have proposed, to the glory 
 of thy holy name, and the full remission of 
 ail my sins. Open the secrets of my soul 
 to me, O Lordii and make me know all my 
 sins and iniquities. Give me a perfect sor- 
 row and hearty contrition for them and 
 grace to confess them to my spiritual physi- 
 cian plainlv and entirely, sincerely and pe- 
 nitently, with a firm and constant resolution: 
 to endeavour the amendment of my liie for 
 the future. 
 
 O Lord, my gracious God, the only com- 
 fort of my soul, since thou desire^t that in 
 all things I should sincerely serve thee, and 
 I, through thy grace, desire nothing, more 
 than to perform thy will : how comes it to 
 pass, O Lord, that I still offend thee ? How 
 comes it to pass, that I relapse so often into 
 iD^ former follies ? Thy grace is not wanting; 
 what then can it be attributed to, but only 
 to my own inconstancy and perverseness ? 
 lor which, O Lord, I atn most heartily sorry^
