¶ A Prayer to be used on Wednesday November 13. In the Office appointed for that Day, immediately after the Prayer for the High Court of Parliament (which is to be read during their Session:) and next before the Prayer of Saint Chrysostom, both in the Morning, and Evening Service.
By the Kings special Command.

ALmighty God, who hast in part discovered the designs, and disappointed the attempts of those Popish Con­spirators, who under the pretence of Religion, and thy Sacred Name, have conspired our destruction; labour­ing by the most unjustifiable methods of Murders, Trea­sons, and the Assassination of His Majesties Sacred Per­son, to introduce the tyranny of a foreign power, and the abomination of superstitious worship; and thereby to en­slave the souls and bodies of thy servants, and to extinguish the light of thy Gospel amongst us and our posterity: We yield thee praise and thanksgiving for this thy mercy to us; imploring thy grace and favour in the farther discovery of these depths of Satan, this mystery of iniquity. Send forth thy light and thy truth, and let them preserve us. Give pro­tection and defence to our Sovereign Lord the King, bind up his soul in the bundle of life, and let no weapon form'd against him prosper; Clothe all his enemies with shame; but upon Himself and His Posterity let His Crown ever flourish. To this end, knit together the hearts of all this People, as the heart of one man, in the defence of their King, their Laws, and their Religion. Teach them to see in this their day, the things belonging to their peace, before they are hid from their Eyes; Remove from a­mo [...] them the Accursed thing, those personal, and those p [...] guilts, whose cry is gone up to heaven, and call [...] aloud for thy vengeance; And being by true re­pentance reconcil'd to thee our God, let us by Chri­stian Love and Charity be united to one another: That walking in the paths of thy holy Law which thou hast given us, its Blessing may be continued to us; and we thy people and sheep of thy pasture may give thee thanks for ever, and shew forth thy praise from gene­ration to generation. Hear us, O God, for thy mer­cies sake, through Iesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.
