God of hosts; heaven and earth are full of thy glory: Glory be to thee, O Lord most high. Amen.

Upon Whitsunday.

ACCORDING to whose most true promise thy Holy Spirit was poured forth upon the Apostles, to lead them into all the truth; giving them both the gift of divers languages, and also boldness, with fervent zeal, constantly to preach the Gospel unto all nations: whereby we have been brought out of darkness and error, into the clear light and true knowledge of thee, and of thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Therefore with Angels and Archangels, and with all the company of heaven, we extol and magnify thy glorious name, evermore praising thee, and saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts; heaven and earth are full of thy glory: Glory be to thee, O Lord most high. Amen.

Then the Minister, standing before the Table, shall say the Prayer following :

ALMIGHTY God, our heavenly Father, by whose gracious assistance, and for our benefit, thy beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, was obedient even to the death upon the cross; who did institute, and in

his holy Gospel command us to continue, a perpetual memorial of that his precious death until his coming again: hear us, we most humbly beseech thee, and grant that we may receive this bread and wine, in grateful remembrance of his voluntary death and sufferings: Who, in the same night in which he was betrayed, took bread; and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, Take, eat, this is my body which is given for you do this in remembrance of me. Likewise, after supper, he took the cup; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed for you, and for many, for the remission of sins: Do this, as oft as ye shall drink it, in remembrance of me. Amen.

Here let the Minister break the Bread.

Then shall the Minister first receive the communion in both kinds himself; and then proceed to deliver the same to the congregaAnd when he delivereth the bread, he shall say:

tion.

Take and eat this in remembrance of Christ.

And when he delivereth the cup, he shall say:

Take and drink this in remembrance of Christ.

When all have communicated, the Minister shall say as followeth.

O LORD and heavenly Father, we thy faithful servants earnestly desire thy fatherly goodness mercifully to accept this our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving; humbly beseeching thee to grant, that by faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, and obedience to thy will, we may obtain the pardon of our sins, and everlasting life.

Here we offer and present unto thee, O Lord, ourselves, our souls and bodies, to be a reasonable, holy, and lively sacrifice unto thee. And although we be unworthy through our manifold sins to offer unto thee any sacrifice; yet we beseech thee to accept this our bounden duty and service: not weighing our merits, but pardoning our offences, according to thine abundant mercies in Christ Jesus our Lord; through whom all honour and glory be unto thee, O Father Almighty, world without end. Amen.

Then shall be said by all present :

GLORY be to God on high, and in earth peace, good-will towards men. We praise thee, we bless thee, we worship thee, we give thanks to thee for the various manifestations of thy great glory, O Lord God, heavenly King, God the Father Almighty.

We bless thee for sending thy beloved Son Jesus Christ into the world to save sinners; for exalting him unto thy right hand in heaven; for the gifts and graces of thy Holy Spirit, and for the hope of eternal life.

For thou only art wise, and holy, and good; thou only art the Lord: thou only dost govern all things both in heaven and earth. Therefore, blessing and honour, and glory and power, be unto thee, who sittest upon the throne, through our Lord Jesus Christ, for ever and ever. Amen.

One of these valedictory forms to be used at the discretion of the Minister.

MAY the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, make us perfect, strengthen, settle us. To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter v. 10, 11. The Lord bless us and keep us; the Lord make his face to shine upon us, and be gracious unto us; the Lord lift up the light of his countenance upon us, and give us peace now and for evermore. Amen. Numb. vi. 24, 25, 26.

THE ORDER

FOR THE

ADMINISTRATION OF BAPTISM.

Note, that there shall be for every Child two or three Sponsors; who may most properly be Parents, or nearest relations.

HEAR the words of our Saviour Christ to his Apostles, as they are written by St. Matthew, in the 28th chapter, at the 19th verse:

Go ye, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Hear also what St. Peter saith:

The baptism which saveth us is not the putting away the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience towards God. 1 Pet. iii. 21.

Dearly beloved,

Ye have brought this child here to be baptized: I demand therefore,

Will ye faithfully and earnestly exhort this child to renounce every thing that is evil, the vain pomp
